(Stellas outfit)^

Soon enough it was Monday. The first day at Lakeview High, I was slightly nervous and excited at the though of going to a new school.

I get up and have a very quick shower. It was currently 6am and school started at 7:30 so I had an hour and a half to be ready. I went into my closet and picked out an outfit from the new clothes I bought this weekend. It was a white top with an image and some light wash skinny jeans along with my air forces.
Since I had time I diffused my hair so the curls were much more defined and applied some mascara and lipgloss.

The red light went of around my room and I went to go and open my door. My mum stood on the other side.

"Hi sweet are you nearly ready school starts in half an hour and it takes 15 minutes to get there" she signs.

"Yes actually I was just on my way down" I replied.

I made my way downstairs following my mum and grabbed an apple for my breakfast. I didn't want anything heavy because I was way to nervous to eat lots.

Cohen came into the kitchen and told me we were leaving. So I grabbed my bag and followed him out after saying bye to my mum and dad.

"Cohen do you know where you're going" I questioned signing whilst strapping my seat belt on.

"Of course mum showed me the way to go yesterday" he signed.

As we set of I looked out the window to see where we were going because unlike Cohen I didn't know.

Just as we saw the school sign showing us we have arrived Cohen tapped me on my shoulder making me turn around.
I gestured to him that I was listening.

"So Stella I know you had a hard time back in the uk but it might be different here and hopefully you make nice friends but just remember don't let anyone take advantage of you or walk all over you just because your deaf okay" he signed to me.
I know he knows that I'm not scared of telling someone what's right and wrong or standing up for myself because I have needed to do it a lot in the past. But I have had experience of people treating me like shit all because I'm deaf .

"Thank you Cohen but I know how to stand up for myself" I said to him.

"Oh I know you can stand up for your self trust me I've seen it and it's not a side I wish for anybody to be on" he signs laughing.

I can be a very kind and nice person but as soon as someone thinks that they can treat me like shit or talk to me like shit. Well let's just say it doesn't end good ... for them.

"Whatever Cohen lets just go in okay" I sign laughing at what he said and he just nods his head.

We get out the car and already people are looking at us. I don't see why people feel the need to look at us it's not like we're a famous celebrity although at this point in time I feel like one.

I spot Charlotte near the entrance of the door and she looks up at me and waves  me to come over.
I tell Cohen I'm going and he just tells me that if Someone says anything about me then I have to come and find him straight away. But I know how to handle people. So I make my way over to Charlotte.

"Hey Stella" she says slowly enough for me to read her lips.
"Hey" I say whilst signing.

"So I was thinking I could just show you to your classes as you don't know where they are "she says and it takes me a minute to make out what she said.

"Yes that would be nice but first I need to go to the office and get my schedule"I say and she nods leading the way.

As we walk in everyone's eyes instantly turned to us and it was really awkward but Charlotte just continued walking like it was a normal everyday thing. I saw a few people's lips moving and a some very weird glares.

I tapped her on her shoulder and she turned around.
I whispered "is this an everyday thing"

She laughed and then said back "yep actually it is they only really pay attention to the popular people or new people like you"

"Oh" is all I could say. Great now I'm going to be the deaf new girl and everyone will just stare at me all day.

We made it into the office and I got my schedule. I had biology first and Charlotte had humanities. I wished that I was with Charlotte because then I would actually know someone but the universe hates me and wants me to be alone.

She walked me to biology and then said she would meet me after class because we both had English together.

I made my way in and decided to sit at the very back corner near the window. As people started walking into class I  imagined the bell rang because not soon after the teacher walked in. The school has been informed that I'm deaf and they would have to give me the work written on paper.

I honestly don't know if the teacher has told the other students that I'm deaf or if anyone has talked about me but I'm guessing someone said something because they all turned and laughed at me. At that moment I just wanted to crawl in a hole and never come out.

But everyone stopped laughing and turned to the door as a boy walked in. I swear i just stopped breathing. He was beautiful. He was so tall like around 6ft 5 type of tall and he had black silky hair that looked so soft, a sharp jawline that looked like it could cut and Icy blue eyes that you could see from anywhere.
He had a black T-shirt on which hugged his toned muscles and black ripped jeans.

I figured I was staring too creepily so I just looked down and concentrated back on my worksheets as did everyone else.

About  2 minutes passed and I looked up to find everyone staring at me or rather behind me. So I turned around and there stood the icy blue eyes I saw before but one thing was different and that was his face because he looked pissed.

He tried talking to me but I couldn't quite catch what he was saying because he spoke way to fast.

"I'm deaf" I said and signed stopping him mid sentence.

He just looked at me with a disgusted face and I couldn't help but look confused.

"Right well let me say this slowly for you Get. Out. Of. My . Seat" He said extremely slowly as if I'm thick in the head.

Nobody talks to me that way who does he think he is.

"Right well let me say this slowly for you. I'm deaf not thick and no I won't get out of your seat because I was here first" I said and signed but also saying 'your' more slowly then usual.

He looked really really angry but also surprised that I spoke back to him. I looked around and everyone looked shocked even the teacher.

"Look here Deafy I don't give a shit if you were here first I'm here now so get up and fucking move" he said with an angry glare.

"Look here dickhead I'm not moving so I suggest you take your ass elsewhere"I said pissed off.

"You will regret that deafy" he said before he turned and walked out of class.

I sat back down and by now the whole class was just staring at me in complete utter shock.

"What the hell are you all looking at?" I asked very annoyed.
They all just turned back around and got on with what they were doing

The hour passed by very slowly and I couldn't be anymore bored. Throughout the class I had dirty looks from all different parts of the room I wanted to smack everyone upside the head and knock some sense into them. Have they never heard of manners you don't just stare at someone.

I met Charlotte outside of class and we began to walk to English.

"So how was first period"she said looking at me.

"It was okay this guy was a real knobhead though he expected me to just up and move for him like he was the king and I was his slave" I exclaimed signing.

"Who?"she asked.

"I don't know he had black hair and really light blue eyes. He was pretty fit actually but his manners and the way he spoke to me was a massive turn off"I said.

"Oh I think you mean Ace Rivers he's one of the schools bad boys nobody speaks back to them or even looks at them the last time someone did that they had a broken rib and sprained ankle" she said a look of worry was on her face.

"Whoops I think I might have caused myself a death wish"I said and signed.

"please tell me you didn't do anything stupid"Charlotte said practically begging me to say no.

"I can't tell you that and what's the big deal he's a bit of a wanker so what I've dealt with worse" I said

"If by worse you mean by you've been to hell then I don't think you have" she said as we got to the English room and we walked in.
