Freshman year - Charlotte Matthews
lottie walked down the hall towards jackie taylor and shauna shipman. she had grown over the summer going from a whopping 5’5 to 5’8 she loomed over all of her classmates now even the boys so it wasn’t a shock to her that she had to crane her neck down to look at jackie and shauna.
“did you hear we have a new girl in our class” jackie said excitingly “how do you know that jax?”shauna’s voice sounds a little raspier making lottie and jackie seem surprised “well i know everything” lottie and shauna share a odd look then look back at jackie “OKAYYY maybe i overheard principal Benic telling coach Martinez that there was a new girl and that she did soccer at her old school” “what’s this about a new girl?” saids van palmer skipping down the hall arm in arm with taissa turner “omg we just went through this it’s not our fault you guys were making out in the bathroom” lottie bursts out “WHAT WE WERENT DOINGCTHAT” tai squeeks “right you weren’t…” “WE WERENT I SWEAR” “then why are you getting so defensive tai” lottie teases “omg can we please just know about this new girl” “vanessa please do not use the lords name in vain” laura lees sweat voice rings out “please jackie get on with telling us about the new girl” “well van i don’t have to tell you now you can look yourself”
lottie was the first to look down the hall to see a average hight girl with brown wavy hair, on her body she had baggy jeans hanging at her hips, a navy blue striped long sleeve with a black leather jacket on-top of it, when lottie got to look at her face she was stunned this girl was beautiful overly beautiful she had sharp cheek bones although one had a bruse on them, she had blue eyes that were emphasised by the black eyeliner, she had freckles scatterd all over her face like a consolation that you could look away from, lottie felt as if she had been looking at the girl for hours.
“yo she looks cool” vans voice broke her out of her trance “she looks emo” shauna saids behind jackie, as lottie looks back she sees that shauna is hugging jackie from behind arms snaked around her waist meeting at the front, “as if you can say anything shipman” “hey im not emo jax” “well sometimes your music saids differently, what’s that one band you listen to ‘mom jeans’ is it” “well yes but i’m not emo” “ okay okay back to the new girl” tai saids not even looking at the two “she looks athletic” van saids “no she doesn’t she looks skinny as hell there’s a difference” “well maybe she is athletic tai” “she is i overheard principle Benic telling coach martinez that she used to play soccer at her old school”
now sat in class lottie wonders what classes the new girl is in before she can get the thought into her head the girl walks into the room “ahh class meet our new student natalia? natalie? which one is it sweetie” ms miller saids but directs the last bit to the girl “umm natalie” the girl mutters “okay everyone give natalie a warm welcome, lottie would you mind natalie sitting next to you” “no of course not” “okay natalie go sit next to lottie please”
