isabella's pov| 5:02 a.m| monday
i felt like i was going to be sick, i don't even know why i'm nervous. this isn't even my first, tomorrow is my first day. i don't even need to be there for another 5 hours. but i'm wide awake, due to my stomach turning; from anxiety.
~
i fell asleep after i calmed myself for the third time that night. waking up between 8:20 a.m. feeling that ray of sunlight hit my face. quietly getting out of bed, making my way to the bathroom to freshen up.
going to my closet and picking my outfit for the day. pulling up my high waisted jeans, sliding my green v-neck shirt on. putting on my fuzzy socks with my brown boots. before leaving i walked into the bathroom placing my contacts in.
grabbing my phone and walking out of my room, shutting the door behind me. heading downstairs making my way to the kitchen.
"good morning honey." my grandma said, shuffling her feet over towards me. giving me a kiss on my cheek.
"hey, go get yourself ready, so we can head to the school, we have to be there in 30 minutes." i said.
"oh okay, honey. my shoes are in the front and my jacket." she said walking to the front door.
Going over towards the cabinet grabbing a snack before i left. walking my way over to the front door seeing my grandma pulling on her jacket.
"put your coat on, i'll start the car." she says opening the door, walking out into the blanket of white coldness. putting on my coat, quickly heading out of the house. which wasn't a smart idea, almost landing face first from the ice.
getting into the car my grandma started smiling at me. opening gps, typing in my school. starting our route.

i've been the office for almost an hour. i had to go talk to my new guidance counselor about my schedule. finalizing the schedule she gave a call to a teacher, telling them to send one of the kids to walk me around. waiting for around 5 minutes after the call, a knock came from the door.
feeling my stomach twist on how nervous i was, what if they didn't like me. or did something to me. calm down isabella you'll be fine, it's just a student.
"jack, it's great to see you. why are you out of breath?" she asked the young man. keeping my head down.
"w-well you see, i was walking down here. but my friend's classroom door was open and i walked in there. saying hi to him, and to meet in the gym before lunch. then i looked at the time realizing i was late. running here, t-that's why I'm o-out of breath. can I have a sip of your water?" the boy said.
realizing he was talking to me, i lifted my head up. looking him up and down before getting to his face. wearing black jeans, a black jacket, with a flannel wrapped around his waist. his white showing a little under his jacket.
"y-yeah go ahead." he grabbed the water bottle and started chugging it. almost drinking all my water.
"jack, manners." the guidance counselor said. "sorry i was just really thirsty." he said throwing the water bottle away.
"i'll buy you a new one promise you." i gave him a quick smile.
"jack here is her schedule, go ahead and walk her around. i'll see you later sweetie, your grandma and i will have a conversation while you two are gone." i nod while grabbing my phone. walking out with Jack.
