Heyo, LunaAlenora here! Please check our other books, mine and sky010903, if you are reading this! Whelp, enjoy!
I drag my body to enter the prison- I mean, school with the help of my sister. She is a life saver.
"You know I love you, right?" I asked her, looking at her with a thankful gaze. Though, she only stared at me blankly.
"Yeah, I know and I love you too, but can you walk normally?" She whined, pulling me towards the class.
"I don't wanna! I have a bad feeling in my gut, like something is going to happen."
"Omg! It is the end of the world...! Now, walk towards your desk before a zombie jumps out of nowhere." She retorted sarcastically, waving her hand in desperation.
"You are to regret saying such words... Zombies are real and when the apocalypse come, I ain't helping you out." I grumbled, crossing my arms over my chest as I walk towards my lonely and very decorated desk.
Ahem, I only have a cup full of pencils there...
As I sat down, placing my bag carelessly on the floor beside me, I could hear Blake trying, terribly might I add, surpass a laugh.
She snorted in the end, seating beside me on the back of all our classmates, a free seat on my left, the vacant space it had left.
I took my notebook, sketchbook, a pencil and a lion eraser for the class, adjusting all of the items to fit perfectly and comfortably for me. The teacher, after 10 minutes and after all the students entered the classroom started with a boring,
"Good morning, class! I have great news today, starting from today on, you shall have a new classmate and friend. You may come in now, Miss Baker." Mrs. Matthias gestured towards the door for the Miss to come in, a blonde girl doing so.
"You have got to be kidding me." I whispered, gritting my teeth in complete frustrating.
A blonde chick. Please God, hear my prayer, don't let the girl be like Summer or Daisy, and not ever like Saturn... Have mercy! I thought, crossing my fingers as she presented herself.
"Hello, I am Esmeralda Baker and I shall be your new classmate. Hopefully, I can become friends with all of you. Let's have a great year!" Esmeralda Baker sounded maturer than any of us here, and her blue eyes hide a secret I wanted to know.
But, it is only a secret, it isn't as if it included Blake or me in it. I just have the feeling continue tugging my gut, telling me this girl was going to do something to us. Good or bad? I have no idea, but I wasn't going to stay to figure her out.
As she walked towards the seat in my left as the teacher had instructed, I kept my gaze in the unfinished wings of my latest drawing, her strong gaze making me uncomfortable twice as before. And the fingers that gripped the pencil I was using to finish the drawing twitched uncontrollably, a habit of mine I didn't like, something that gave away my uncomfortableness to all of them to know of.
Though, her smile seemed sincere as she stared at me with a warm gaze, a friendly gaze I only got from Blake and nobody else. I set the pencil down and turn towards her, returning the smile hesitantly.
"Hi, I am Esmeralda, but you already knew that. What is your name?" She asked awkwardly. My guess being that she is still getting used to all of this.
In a weird way, I understood her, though, I was never going to get used to my surroundings. And neither was Blake.
"I am Alex Alenora Arrow, but people know me as Alenora." And by people, I mean my family. I wanted to add, but left it like that, not wanting to add my depressive thoughts to an unknown girl.
She offers me her hand as greeting, and I hesitantly accept it, looking at Blake from the corner of my eyes, her already with her eyes at us. I turn to Blake after letting go of her hand and gesture towards my sister, presenting them properly,
"Esmeralda, this is Blake Arrow, my sister. Blake, this is Esmeralda Baker, our new trams-" I was cut off by Esmeralda, her words surprising me to another universe.
"Your new friends, of you let me. I was hoping to become all your of you guys friends, you girls included. So, can we be friends?" Esmeralda enthusiasm impressed me, and I looked at Blake as if asking for permission. She answered for both of us, actually.
"Yeah. Let's...be friends." She was hesitant as well, and that didn't surpass Esmeralda from not noticing.
At the contrary, she knew we both were wary with her. As if waiting to be attached in the end of this 'friendship' and we were actually waiting for it. Maybe, if she is as the devil girls- I mean, those girl, than she will betray us at the end of the day, after at leafs opening us to her. Though, we weren't as other victims. Maybe after a month we will actually be able to completely open to her, if we ever get to become friends.
Let's just hope, for us and her sake, that she is actually different from everyone else. From all the people we are surrounded by at this prison and this time I won't deny it.
School is my definition of prison.
