The alarm clock started to ring, it was the first day of 9th Grade. As Shizuka turned off her alarm, she laid back on her pillow and stared up at her ceiling and thought to herself, this is going to be a long year. She uncovered herself from her blankets and got up to brush her teeth, after she was finished she went back to her room to get changed into her uniform for school. As she walked to her dresser to do her hair she looked in the mirror and frowned. She looked away from the mirror and went to her dresser and did her hair, she put her long black hair in braids today. Through her thin bedroom walls, she could hear her older brother Aito getting ready for his last first day of school being this was his senior year. Aito is more like a stranger and the total opposite of Shizuka. He is Mr. Popular and she is like a little shadow in the corner of a large room. She doesn't even remember the last time they spoke together. She put on her shoes and grabbed her sketch book and some pencils and put them into a mini backpack and grabbed her phone and headed out the door to the subway for the 20 minute ride to school.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After the ride was over she had to walk 2 minutes to get to school, she didn't mind it though. When she finally arrived at school she thought to herself, this school is larger than I thought! She did a deep sigh to her self and looked at her phone to check the time, I'm just in time. She looked up from her phone and started walking to the front doors. While she was walking to the doors she looked around the outside of the school more, there were lots of cherry blossom trees around, their petals falling onto the concrete like pink snow. She looked behind her, there were more students coming in. She wondered if any of them were gonna be in any of her classes, Shizuka looked at the front doors and walked up the stairs and into the large front doors into the school.
The halls were filled with lockers and the faces of teenagers, some faces were familiar and others were just as new to her as the school. The noise coming from those faces was deafening and made her ears ring. All she wanted was to find her locker and her home room class and to get herself to both without having to look up and face any eye contact. As she went through the numbers of her combination for the third time she recognized a voice that brought a chill to her bones. Still facing her locker frozen, she looked to her left, it was Akruia. Akruia is a one of those girls who like to pick on Shizuka, following Akruia was her two friends Sora and Hiru. Akruia has been bulling Shizuka since last year, that's when Shizuka started to draw a lot more. Great! What am I going to do.... Shizuka looked back at her locker and acted like she never seen Akruia and continued to put her mini backpack in her locker. She put her sketch book and her pencils to her side, and closed her locker and started walking away, " Oh look who it is! It's it Shizuka. " Shizuka gasped and froze in place, she slowly turned her head to face Akuria and her friends which had their hands on their hips in a sassy way. " H-hey Akuria! " She said with a nervous tone. Shizuka managed to do a nervous smile and looked away and sped run down the hall to her home room. She was surprised she got away so easily.
Shizuka looked at the door and hesitated, she reached for the door nob and walked in her home room, she looked around the room to see if she can recognize anyone that is in the room. At least 3 people she knew and the rest were new to her. Shizuka walked more into the room to find a seat to call her own, she spotted a seat by the window in the 3rd row and quickly walked to the seat. She placed her sketch book and her pencils on the desk and sighed, she looked around the room and seen groups of people having conversations in a different part of the room, she sat down and noticed there was no teacher in the room. She looked down at her sketch book and opened it to start a drawing that she will be working on all day. First Shizuka thought of what she could draw, there's so many things that I can draw, she thought. Hm.... I'll draw a person! Maybe a... boy. Yeah, I have to practice drawing boys... Shizuka was exited to start the drawing.
~~~~ 2 Minutes later ~~~~
Shizuka's eyes still focused on her drawing and the other students still chatting and giggling and doing their own thing stopped when they heard a creak of a door, the home room door came open slowly and everyone looked at the door and quickly scramed to their seats. Shizuka finally looked up from her drawing and put away her sketch book and pencils away, someone came in the room, it was the teacher. " Sorry everyone, I got up late today! " She seems nice! Maybe the teacher won't be so bad. " Ok everyone! I'm going to hand out a sheet to everyone and I wa-
