Looks like my first day is going well.
Izzy's POV
My first day is going terribly.
After I walked into my first class I was immediately in trouble.
"You're late, sit down and keep quiet." The teacher says to me then goes back to yelling at another student. I sigh internally, happy that I don't have to introduce myself. I quickly shuffle over to my desk and sit down. I take out a notepad and write down the notes on the board, trying to stay invisible from everyone. It's short lived though when the teacher finally stops yelling at the student and turns her attention towards me.
"Stand up and introduce yourself." She says and sits down by her desk, glaring over at me. I gulp and stand up shakily. I look around me and see everyone's attention glued to me. I look down shyly and clear my throat.
"M-My n-name i-is I-Issab-bella-"
"Sorry we don't understand stuttering weirdo." A girl from infront interrupts me while wearing a smug grin. The rest of the class snickers at the remark. I look down in shame and sit down, trying to hold back my tears. I hate how I am now.
I use to be a very confident person. I could stick up for myself, I wasn't scared or even cared about other people's opinions but now, now I'm a scared little girl who can't even speak properly.
"Aww, did I make the weirdo cry?" The same girls cooes sarcastically then bursts out laughing along with the rest of the class. I quickly wipe away the stray tears that fell and look down, not wanting to see them laughing at me. It doesn't help my tears when I hear them get louder and make more comments about me.
I grab my things and immediately run out the class, ignoring the teacher yelling for me to come back. I just keep running until I make it outside the school. I didn't stop there, I just kept running, still hearing all of their laughter.
"Hey, I'm Eric and you?" He introduces himself but pulls his hand back when he notices I'm not going to take it. Theo then notices me and smiles.
"I-Isab-bella." A sudden recognition crosses his face and he frowns. He doesn't say anything after that and just continues to eat his food.
"So how's you're day goint Izzy? Hope it's going well like mine. I was being hit on by these two girls then Eric here..." I didn't want to stop Theo as he told me about his day so far. I'm happy that he at least has been having a good day. I just continue to smile at him, no matter how much my head hurts.
After his story he turns back to Eric and talks ecstaticly. He then excuses himself to get some food. I look down and just wait for lunch to be over. I am hungry but I don't want to ask anyone for food so I just ignore my stomach growling. I suddenly hear a slam in front of me and I jump, startled at the sound. I look up and pale as I see it's the girl from before. She glares down at me.
"What are you doing here?" She sneers at me. I don't reply, just look down, not knowing what to do.
