ODarcy May's p.o.v I woke up just before my alarm went off. Climbing out of bed, i looked at myself in the mirror. "you look ugly." I muttered, walking out of my room and into the bathroom to get ready for school. I've been putting myself down like that ever since my dad left. You see, i've been depressed since i was five. My dad used come into my room at night and abuse me. He told me it was his way of saying he loved me. I was only little at the time, so i didn't know what he was doing was wrong. Mom didn't find out till i was twelve, that's when the bruises started to show. She asked me about it multiple times, and when i did tell her the truth, she filed for a divorce straight away. Me and my mom moved to america after the divorce was complete. We've lived here for a year and a half. I haven't been school because i was told i was too old for secondary school, but i was too young for high school, so my mom decide to home tutor me untill i reached seventeen, which i did two weeks ago. The last time i saw my dad, he was walking away with his arm around some slut. Don't ask who the slut was cuz i have no idea. I got to the bathroom and stripped off. I reckoned i had enough time to shower and dress before 8:30. After showering, i grabbed a towel and wrapped it around myself. I then wandered back to my room to pick my clothes. I managed to find my favourate greenday top that said, "american idiot," on it, my black ripped skinny jeans and my black converse high tops. I sat in front of my mirror and aplied my black liquid eye liner, black eyeshadow and a nude lip gloss. I then grabbed my backpack and stomped down the stairs. In the kitchen, i found my mom in a dressgown, making pancakes. She saw me and placed a plate full of pancakes on the table. "mama, it's not that i don't love your pancakes, but if i have them now, i'll be late for school." I told her. It was already 8:45 now, so i had about ten fifteen mintues to get to school. My mom nodded and moved the plate off the table. Grabbing my genuin leather jacket, i kissed my mother on the cheek and rushed out of the house. I managed to reach belleville high school by five to, so i ran as fast as i could to my locker. I grabbed allthe necessary books and papers i would need and ran to class A19, which was history. I entered the room only to have about fifteen sets of eyes staring at me, making me uncomfortable. I cautiously made my way up to the teachers desk and knocked on it lightly. My teacher, Miss Haven, looked up and smiled at me."you must be Darcy May." She said. I nodded. She stood up and whistle really loudly. Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared. "class, we have a new student." She said. She looked at me, encouraging to introduce myself. "hi, i'm Darcy May Shentam, I like d&d, audrey hepburn, fangoria, harry houdinine and croquet. I can't swim, can dance and i don't know karate. So face it, i'm never gonna make it." I told the class. I looked over at Miss Haven and i think she approved of what i said, cuz she was smiling. "you will be sitting next to Miss Parkour."Miss Haven told me. I made my way to way to were a blonde headed girl was sat and sat next to her. I stayed silent for a while, totally absorbed in my work, when i felt a slight nudge on my arm. I looked up to see the blonde headed girl had poked me, trying to get my attention. "hi, i'm sammie." She smiled. "i'm... Well you already know who i am thanks to my intro." I smiled back. "i have to say that was pretty awesome. You come up with that yourself?" She asked, her eyes sparkling. "yeah." I answered. It didn't take me long to realise that i made a friend. A actual real live friend. Class finally finished, so i grabbed my bag and left. "hey, wait for me!" Sammie called. "wadda you want!" I said playfully. She chuckled. " we got classes together all morning, so don't think you can get rid of me that easily." I rolled my eyes. "oh no, it'll be like the end of the world with you." I said. "No, it won't. Come on, i'll race you to science." She said, dashing off. Smiling, i ran after her. This might just be the best year ever.
