Chapter 1.
I walked slowly through the front doors at school.  I stopped for a moment to take in all the new surroundings.  It all felt so new, probably because it was.  I still couldn't get over the fact that I was really in California.  It's such a big jump from New York, I thought to myself.  I missed all my friends back home a lot.  It had been at least two months since we've left, but it feels like forever.  My mom keeps saying that this will be better for the both of us.  I'm just hoping she's right.  I continued walking down the main hallway, until I finally reached the junior high hallway.  I paused and took a deep breath.  "Here goes nothing," I whispered to myself.  I took my first few steps into the hallway.  I could feel eyes following me.  I tried my best to move quickly and avoid eye contact, but obviously I got too ahead of myself.  Before I knew it, I could feel the cold floor pressed against my back.  I quickly stood up only to realize I had run into someone.  "I'm so sorry!" I quickly blurted out.  I could feel my cheeks getting red.  A tall boy with long brown hair looked at me.  "Don't worry about it," he replied softly, giving me a half smile.  "Oh, okay," I stuttered shyly.  "I havn't seen you around here?"  He said acting surprised.  "My name is Josh," he then added.  "I'm Emma, we just moved here a few months ago from New York," I responded briskley.  "Oh, New York?" he said in an amazed voice.  "I bet it was really cool there."  Now I could really feel people starting to stare.  "Yeah, I guess."  I said reluctuntly.  "I miss my friends and all, but the whether is nicer here anyways," I said jokingly.  He laughed a little.  "Yeah, I bet," he then replied.  "Well i should probably get going, the bells gonna ring soon," he then added.  "Maybe i'll see you around?"  I smiled.  "Yeah."  He gave me a quick smile, then headed for his locker.  As I turned to go to my locker,  I saw a few girls looking at me and whispering.  I just ignored them.  I reached my locker and through all my books inside.  The lockers here were much bigger here than they were at my old school.  In fact, the school itself was bigger than my old school.  The bigger the better, I thought hopefully to myself.  I moved my things around in my locker and gathered my things for my first class, which happened to be social studies.  I loaded my books into my backpack and then smoothed out my dress.  The dress was nothing special, it was just a casual dress.  But it looked really cute with my new black flats.  I ran my fingers through my long silky blonde hair.  It was still warm from when I straightened it this morning.  I drug my fingers under my eyes to get rid of any excess makeup that might've smeared.  I then started off to my first class.  I pulled out my scheduled and started walking towards room 420.  I walked down to the end of the hall and entered the last room on the right.  I took an empty seat near the back of the classroom.  Today, I wouldn't mind being invisible, I thought to myself.
