Chapter 5

After a nice, dreamless sleep, you awaken in your bed. You blink tiredly a few times before glancing at the clock that sat on your side table. 4:41am. You sigh and turn over, closing your eyes to try and get back to sleep. You grunt in irritation and try to lay on your stomach, and then your other side, and your back. But to no avail, you just couldn't get comfortable. You groan and sit up. You were pretty sure you didn't have to get up until like, 7. So now you had about 2 hours to kill. You weren't sure if anyone in the house was awake and you didn't really feel like peeking into rooms.

You stand up and begin to shuffle towards your computer. But as life would have it, you feel a heavy weight on your bladder. So you change your course to your door, since your body decided now was a great time to need to pee. You walk down to the bathroom as quietly as you can and close the door behind you.

You sigh in relief as you walk out of the bathroom. You slowly begin to make your way back to your room when you see a figure standing in the lounge. You pause and stare, you weren't sure, but he was most likely staring back.

"What are you doing, kid?"

You jump at the sound of Bro's voice. Wow, almost a heart attack.

"I just went to the toilet," you reply, "saw your figure but couldn't tell who it was."

"Right, well you should get some more sleep, todays your first day of school."

You nod and begin to shuffle back to your room.

"Oh, and (y/n)," you pause and look back at Bro, "sorry about earlier."

"It's fine." You reply.

You continue and quickly enter your room. Knowing that Bro was home and awake, you decide to just hop straight into bed, even if you couldn't sleep. You slip back under the covers and close your eyes. You were pretty sure you were going to have a heart attack sometime soon by living with these three.

Your alarm clock goes off and you almost instantly turn it off. Since getting back into bed this morning, you hadn't gotten any extra sleep. You lazily slip out of bed and switch on the light. You squint as you look around, your eyes not used to the light. The first thing you do is quickly pick out some clothes for school and plop them on your bed. You listen to hear if anyone was in the shower. When you don't hear the shower running, you grab your clothes and head for the bathroom. Luckily there wasn't anyone in there and you lock the door behind you.

You were sitting on the couch, dressed, fed and clutching your school bag. You could feel your nerves rising, but push it aside.

Dave was the next one to enter the lounge. He sits down beside you, an unamused look on his face. You could guess that he also doesn't enjoy school. You want to talk to him, but feel too awkward and stick to looking at your hands, which were fiddling with one of your bag straps.

"Okay, let's go." Dirk enters the lounge and straight towards the front door.

The first thing you see when you follow Dirk out is another boy. He was quite a bit smaller than Dirk, and he had dark hair with emerald green eyes.

"You must be (y/n)," the boy smiles, "I'm Jake, Jake English."

"Nice to meet you, Jake." You smile back.

"Alrighty children, time to get going." Dirk ushers and the four of you begin walking.

Dirk and Jake begin to walk beside each other, you could hear them talking about some people by the names of Roxy, Jane and Calliope. This leaves you walking beside Dave, who had his hands shoved in his pockets and the same look as before on his face.

As soon as you step out of the building, your eyes land on a black haired, blue eyes boy walking towards the group.

"Hey Dave." The boy greets.

"Sup Egbert." Dave responds, the look now gone.

"Hi Dave's sibling."

You look over and wave awkwardly. Did all of their friends know about you?

As Dave and John begin to talk, you're left walking by yourself, eyes looking at the ground as you do so.

'I'm pretty sure I'm going to hate my first day at school.'
