First day of school

My name is Ethan Wright. I'm a teenager who happens to be in his first year in high school and today is supposed to be my first day at my school. My parents have already done the paperwork and it's now my duty to go to school and continue my boring life from where I stopped at middle school. It should be a day of joy for everyone joining since it's the beginning of a new section and the change in school but I don't care a bit, my life has always been boring as far as I can remember and making new friends isn't for me.

The night before my parents brought up the topic during dinner and were expecting to see a smile on my face. I knew what they wanted you see so I obliged and it took every ounce of energy I had to do that. My smile didn't fool them, especially my mom who I wished wouldn't worry too much.

"So how's the food Ethan?"Emily asked with a smile.

"It's fine, I really enjoyed it good night", Ethan said as he stood up and went towards the kitchen to keep his dirty plate.

"Do you think he's going to be okay?,I mean about him starting high school", Emily asked with a serious tone.

"You don't have to bother yourself honey, Ethan has always gone by with things" Alexander said holding Emily's hands with the hope of comforting her.

************************************************

I wasn't really upset about me starting high school just aware that it isn't going to be as fun for me like every normal teenager would think it would be, dad gave me a ride and mom also Insisted she come with us too. I dozed off even before we got there and was woken up by my mom, God how I hate being woken up while sleeping.

"Honey!, we're here your new school" Emily said to Ethan who gruntly opens his eyes

"Didn't get enough sleep I see, since school has started I suggest you take a break from video games son",Alexander said as Ethan comes down from the car.

"Bye honey, have a great time", Emily said waving at Ethan before Alexander finally drove off.

"Take a break from video gaming, I don't think that's possible," Ethan said, adjusting his school bag.

Other students could be seen heading towards the building with smiles on their faces chatting in duo's or groups, I followed them and looked up to where the school's name was written "Bayview High school".

"Okay let's go, it's really going to be a boring day. I hope not" Ethan said as he followed the others into the main building.

Today would be introduction day, meaning it would all be a day about taking a tour and knowing about the school building, what and what not to do, entering clubs and last but not the least getting to know ourselves. The total number of new admits were four fifty in total, thirty composed of new students who are either in their second or third year and the remaining four twenty are off cause first years. After taking a tour around the school we were assigned classes and I was glad cause I had to sit down. I ended up at class 2-C with my seat position at the last row but near the window, it turns out they were giving seat position according to our last names and I was glad this last name of mine brought me some good luck. After that it was the most annoying part, "the introduce yourself part", one by one we introduced ourselves and sometimes others laugh at what the introducer says, some people have the energy to waste laughing. Finally it was my turn

"Okey next", Mrs Maya a woman in her thirties who happens to be our home room teacher", said after she finished jotting down some information into the book she held.

I summoned all my energy and kept it as short as possible.

"Hello my name is Ethan Wright, I had my middle school education at Golden gates middle school. In my free time I enjoy reading mystery novels and playing video games. I'm really passionate about arts and wish to know more about our history. I'm so glad I had to come here and hope that we all could get along.

"My God, what was that I told myself to keep it brief but I went overboard', Ethan said within himself as he was told to take his seat.

Like that it continued until everybody had done their introduction and I thought it was over but it wasn't.

"Okay it's time to choose a class president and other roles would be assigned, either I handpick or a vote is carried out" Mrs Maya said expecting an answer from the students.

At the end of the day, democracy was seen as the suitable way of choosing our class president.

"If you wish to run for this position raise up your hand", Mrs Maya said looking at us.

In no time hands could be seen, mainly boys. I could tell most of them are running for this role without any form of commitment in mind, rather to make a name for themselves and impress the girls just like your typical politicians. In total there were nine contestants in total and I was trying my hardest to stay awake or concentrated at least.

Mrs Maya explained how the votes would be passed, to avoid unnecessary conflicts among the students the identity of the voters would remain a secretonly the voter would be aware of who they are voting and as much as I hate to say it, I was a little impressed by her idea. A box was set on the teachers desk and the students were told to write the name of the contestant they wish to vote for and insert it into the box through the hole on the box, a voter is allowed only one voting right.

I could guess everyone has already known whom to vote for, that is everyone but me. I could just give it to anyone but let's check out the contestants first.

The first person happens to be a boy named Caleb Martin who mentioned in his introduction that his father owns a toy company, that's all I got on him

Second person, a boy named Peter Richardson, his family moved into town recently.

Jake Edward, the mean looking dude who has a scary body figure, his probably a bodybuilder I guess.

Ava Morena, the princess of the class, has been flirting with boys since morning. I think she got the upper hand here.

Luiz Brooke, every princess has to have a prince and Luiz is the one playing that role here and like the princess girls were trolling all over him.

For some reason the other four decided to back out so it isn't worth mentioning their names, I'm not going to give my votes to the princess or prince, Caleb Martin is already popular so that leaves me with Jake and Peter, Peter was the one who I think deserves although one vote doesn't mean his going to win though but I gave it to him either ways.

Looking at it I could already tell who the winner is, it's true that Ava could easily get votes from her new friends and the males dying over her but Luiz has the similar charm and what would be the factor that determines who comes out victorious here, that factor being the population of girls over boys and like everywhere girls are higher in number in my class and since that's the case Luiz has the odds on his side but I'm not sure just has to hear the results like everyone else.

After fifteen minutes at which time everyone has casted their votes Mrs Maya started separating it, she was finally done and told everyone to settle down.

"I will now announce the results, for the candidate with the least votes a total of two votes Peter Richardson", Mrs Maya said signaling Peter to go inside.

I wasn't surprised and by their looks so were the others no one was paying attention to him, that's how the world has ever been neglecting the insignificant.

"His is followed by Jake Edward, with a total of six votes"

"Next is Caleb Martin with a total of eight votes"

It was stated among the rules that the runner up automatically becomes the winner's vice with no need to vote again, so it is the prince and princess who finally evolved to king and queen and even has their own kingdom.

"Ava Morena came second with twelve votes and our winner Luiz Brooke came first with a total of eighteen votes" Mrs Maya said concluding the results.

"It's time for the final stage selecting your subordinates, this position are handpicked by the class president and his vice so it's up to you but I would be here to supervise" Mrs Maya said before taking her seat.

Before they could start the bell for launch rang and Mrs Maya postponed the selection to next day saying she had to be somewhere. After that the rest of period was free time for us, others were busy chatting and all I could do was admire the beauty of the class at least it was all about looking.

Later the bell for dismissal was rang and my father came to pick me up

"How was your first day?", Alexander asked as Ethan enters the car.

"It was fine, today was all about touring and position choosing" Ethan said relaxing in the soft car seat.

"Did you get assigned any role?", Alexander asked before driving into the lane.

"No" Ethan said and before his father could ask another question he had already dozed off at least that's what he wants his father to believe

"I don't have the strength to answer questions" Ethan said to himself before really dozing off.
