First Day

Today is like all other days. Except I am starting a new school, in a new neighborhood, with a new family. I was adopted by the evens 5 days ago today. But it won't last, they never do. I will be going here for about 2 months before they send me back and I go somewhere else. I actually don't mind. I like being able to see the world. Like a year ago, I lived in this shack of a house with nice folks who got by, they let me do whatever I wanted. Because I didn't know anybody I just walked around and discovered that the area had the best Mexican food I had ever tasted.

Anyway, I get around. The place I got now is just wonderful. I got the rich boy area this time. The family just wants to look like they care, at least that is what it seems like. We have already taken more family photos then I will ever need in my lifetime, but it makes them happy so I smile and say "cheese!". The new school looks like a palace. Too big for my taste, but a guy could really get used to a place like this. As I walked up the steps I was too infatuated with looking everywhere at once I tripped and rolled down the steps. As I thought only a few people noticed and no one helped me. "Excuse me young man, but shouldn't you be on your way to class like all the other students rather than taking a break. I know these steps are...new to you but-well follow me Jake evens.""How do you know my name?" This just got weird. This random person shouldn't know anything about me. I'm new!"I am the principle here at Lancaster Academy. This high school is going to test you in every way. I hope you are ready. Now, follow me please.

Walking in the halls of a school fit for a queen was kinda awesome. I loved getting to feel like royalty for a total of 3 minutes and 16 seconds. When I got to my class there was a sign on the door that stated: the class was not to be disturbed. But he needed to go to class so... he knocked.

A women in her mid 30s opened the door and was already scowling when she said, "You clearly cannot read mr...."Jeez, this chick looks like she has to poop."Evens ma'am. Jake Evens."

I smirked and held out my hand as I introduced myself."Well Jake. In my class students who are tardy are not to disturb the learning of the students who value their education." I can already tell I am not going to like it here.

"I'm not aware if you knew this but, I am new to this school and Mr. Braun told me that I was allowed to step into class."

Why do he gotta spell it like B-R-A-U-N,what was wrong with B-R-O-W-N."hmm, then by all means, come on in." She gave a smile colder then the ice age and moved out of the way so I could come in.

"Class please welcome our new student, Mr. Jake Evens. Have any seat that is open."

As I started to walk to an empty seat somewhere when I noticed everyone was looking at me. I started to look for all possible seats that would determine where I sit until further notice and saw 3 desks open. They were the surrounding seats to a kid who looked like he would eat me for lunch. I slowed my pace not wanting to accept the inevitable, as I sat down in the set next to this huge guy, he looked over at me and was still looking at me after the the teacher had resumed her lecture.

Being the idiot I am I decided to ask in a very reasonable tone why he kept looking at me."I don't seem to remember taping a STARE AT ME sign to my forehead. We got a problem?"

I really need to stop picking fights with people who could flick me dead .As I was getting ready for a blow to the face, I heard laughing instead. Which was surprising because I wouldn't have pictured him as the smiling type."I'm Liam." Was all he said before looking out the window like I wasn't even there. And if I'm being honest he had the perfect features for a guy. Dark hair light eyes, and muscles? I would kill for that build.

Once the bell rang 9-12 people all came up to me at once and started slamming me with questions. Who was I?Where did I move from? Did I play sports? Would I join the debate club? I was so swarmed with questions I didn't know which one to answer. Then I heard someone yelling "Fight!" and all the kids dispersed to the door and there was only one kid left in the class.

"Hi, I'm Derek craftsman. I am going to show you around school. We have 2 more periods before lunch at which I will pick you up from your class and we will sit with my other friends. Let me see your schedule." I handed him my schedule and he light up like a god damn Christmas tree.

"We have all classes but one together. Gym. I don't have a PE class. Long story."

As I left whatever class I was just in, Derek started to tell me more about this school. "Okay so before we get into much, what do you notice about the students here?"

"They are all wearing a uniform?" Fuck if I knew.

"Yes, but no. There is like a 5-1 ratio for the boys and girls at this school. That isn't completely accurate either. all I am saying is there are about 30 girls at this school and 17 have boyfriends. 6 are virgins who want to stay that way and the rest aren't that pretty. What I am trying to say is that there is a fairly large number of gay guys at this school, so be prepared to be asked out. here is our class, shall we?"
