Ballerina Bruises
Chapter 2- Oops
Room 200A was like a dungeon. There were only two windows. Can you even imagine a classroom with two windows?
I arrived late and sat in the back between two girls named Perrie and Chloe. They looked very different from me, but they smiled at me when I walked in so I smiled back and sat my little ass down avoiding the stares from the rest of the students.
"So what the hell is a little snowflake princess like you doing at LSHS? No offense." Chloe said. Perrie nudged her and giggled. I grabbed the ends of my sleeves and smiled nervously.
"My dads company moved here, so either we moved with him or he lost his job. You can figure out the rest I guess." Perrie smiled but Chloe had more questions for me.
"So where do you live now? And what company does your dad work for?" My heart fell into my stomach. What company does your dad work for? My dad? Chris Adams? The well known drug dealer? Yeah. I wasn't gonna share that information with them, so I'll tell a little lie.
"I live on Park Avenue, it's on the west side of town. And my dad just works with a mattress company, no big deal." I stated. Perrie's mouth was wide open but I could see a smile forming at the corner of her mouth.
"My boyfriend's friend Louis lives over there!! We always hangout at his place! This is awesome!" Perrie said as she side hugged me. Chloe was smiling too. I guess I made friends? This school may be full of dangerous bad boys with beautiful green eyes, but if I just avoided them and focused on dancing, school work and staying friends with Chloe and Perrie, this could be a great year for me.

Last period of the day. Dance class. LSHS was the first high school I've ever been to that offered dance as a class itself. I walked in and the room was dark. the barre was wobbly and sticky, and the mirrors had hand prints all over them. I was continually unimpressed. Still, I changed into my black tights, black leotard and black sweater, put my hair in a bun, slid on my ballet shoes and acted as professional as I did in my old dance studio. I was a national title holder and I wasn't willing to throw it all away because the classroom was disgusting. When class started I looked behind me and saw Chloe, making a goofy face at me. I smiled holding back my laughter, and continued the exercise.
Not trying to sound cocky, but I was easily the best in the class. The teachers were so impressed with me that they started using me as an example, which earned me tons and tons of dirty looks. Whatever, I was happiest when I was dancing and nobody and their jealousy could change that.
After class Chloe and I were changing back into our school outfits when a teacher came into the room, someone I had recognized from earlier this morning. She pulled me aside and began speaking. "Hi Bella, My name is Mrs. Bruno. I didn't realize you were a new student this morning, and whenever I see that boy Harry my mood changes drastically. I just wanted to let you know you do not have a detention anymore and we are so happy to have you as a student here at LSHS." I smiled widely and thanked her as she left the room. The last bell rang and school was over. I survived my first day at LSHS and I couldn't have been happier it was over, and better yet I just happened to start school on a Friday.
As Chloe and I walked to my locker, A familiar voice was calling my name. I turned around and somebody's hands were wrapped around my waist. Niall. I never thought I would be so happy to see someone in my whole life. "Hey Niall! This is my friend Chloe, she dances too!"
"Hello love, wonderful to meet you." Niall said as he shook her hand. Chloe was blushing and batting her eye lashes flirtatiously. Aw. Niall was blushing back and there was suddenly an awkward silence--only to be broken my Perrie running up to us. "Hi, I'm Niall, and you are?" Niall asked Perrie. She smiled softly and introduced herself, shaking Niall's hand.
"So Bella, since you live near Louis and I'm going there after school I figured you should stop by and meet the whole gang!" She beamed. I looked up at Niall who was nodding for me to say yes, so I agreed. So far, everything was going great at this school.

After Niall and I dropped Jamie off from school, I sighed looking at the empty parking lot. Neither parent was home. Drew hasn't texted Jamie back from this morning, which meant we were still on our own. As we watched Jamie go inside the house Niall asked me, "Are you going to be ok going out to this boy Louis' house? And are you going to be alright being home by yourself tonight?" I looked back at Niall with a smile, but his face was serious. I sighed. I didn't know if I was ok inside.
"Yeah Niall, I'll be ok. Perrie is so sweet, and she wants me to meet the rest of her friends which will be really good for me I think." Niall grabbed both my hands and I quickly pulled down my sleeves.
"Are you sure you will be ok Bella?" I hugged Niall tightly and stepped out of the car. Whether I would be ok or not, I didn't want him to worry about me. He's new this year too, and being the new kid isn't easy. I really did love him for caring about me though, he's the best.

I walked up the steps to Louis' house. It was by far the smallest house on the block, but I wasn't judging. I rang the door bell and about a minute later, Perrie came to the door.
"Hey you're finally here! Come on inside, the guys and Chloe are in the back." Guys? How many guys were here? I followed Perrie to the back of the house, and the further we walked in, the more mysterious the house got. Suddenly Perrie burst open a door. I gasped at what I saw. It was the boys from the steps, and Chloe was sitting with them. "Well guys, this is Bella! Bella, these are the guys. This is my boyfriend Zayn, this is Liam, this is Louis and this is Harry!" My jaw dropped open. I couldn't speak. Of all the people I could make friends with, it would be the girl friend of the thugs from school.
Greaaaat. They all looked at me and laughed silently to themselves at my reaction, but not Harry. He was smirking and before anyone could say anything, he stood up and cheered, "Who wants to play a game?" Not me.
