Alois dragged his backpack on the ground as he trudged his legs through the hallway, tiredness starting to take effect. Sometimes he wonders why he even goes for those morning runs, sometimes they just wear him down a lot more than he'd like.

He looked at his paper to see where his newly introduced classes are.

"Hmm.. Shit.. First class is Algebra." He muttered in his head, disappointed that he knows he probably won't pass this class. Math's always been a struggle.

Leaning against his locker, (Which, I mind you, was a struggle to find, especially through the crowd of students, new and old trying to find where to go.) The blonde boy let his mind wander. There was about five minutes before class actually started.

He looked around the halls, scanning faces, seeing who seemed cool to hang out with, but every time he tried to make eye contact with someone, they gave him a dirty look or didn't even pay attention to him.

Harsh crowd.

Seems this year is going to be a little difficult at friend-making.

Though, he must admit...

He did feel pretty intimidated.

Everyone looked so.. pristine.. and.. lovely built. Compared to him, everyone looked like royalty.

What kinda school did his mom get him into? Some sort of.. pretty people school?

Well.. no one was exactly dressed up neatly or anything.. but everyone just looked so much more attractive than him. At least, he thought so. Which put a dent in his self confidence, which was already low enough.

"Hmm.. the day hasn't even started and I already feel bad about myself." His voice echoed in his head, reflecting on his bad image on himself.

He was startled out of his thoughts by the bell, alerting everyone to go to class.

His frame was pushed around my kids trying to get to class, of all grades. Seniors grumbled through, knowing hwere everything was, and even some were stopped by the freshmeats for directions to class.

Alois watched everyone scramble like ants, as he followed the flow into his first class.

He quickly scurried in and found a seat in the back, which he was aiming for. He wanted to blend in as much as possible, and get as less attention as he could.

A few students filled the seats around him, which made him a bit uncomfortable, especially since he knew absolutely no one.

A young boy that looked a little younger than him by about a year, maybe even two resided about two seats next to him. Another sat directly next to him, whom looked a bit like a girl. Well, Alois in fact thought the strawberry blonde was a girl, until he spoke to a friend next to him.

Maybe he was goth, too? He had some pretty dark black hair, and he wore dark clothes.

Gosh, this school is definitely filled with interesting people.

Though, the bluenette about two seats down from him, next to the raven haired senior, captured his attention a little.

He looked pretty.

Like a porcelain doll.

Alois tilted his head in a smile at the boy, of course, he didn't notice.

The teacher called the class to attention, but of course Alois's mind was in other places, but in the teacher's grasp.

Blah blah, same as usual, introduction to the year, blah blah shit shit yadda yadda.

'I get it already.'

This year was going to be slow, he could already tell.

The teacher seemed slow and boring, which was the last thing he needs. Especially since he barely understands the basics of math, and besides, he was probably severely behind on credits.

He mentally shivered.

Alois didn't want to even glance at the number of credits he had. It was probably an extremely low number, if it is, it would just unmotivate him even more. His lack of motivation and understanding was already low enough.

"Alright class, we'll go around introducing ourselves now that I got the basic instructions out of the way.." He heard the teacher's voice echo in the classroom, as he felt his stomach drop.

'Introduce myself?'

He could feel his cheeks and ears blush scarlet, as he scanned around the room, seeing that the teacher called on a girl with short brown hair in the front to introduce herself.

"Do I have to stand up?" She shyly asked.

"No, at your desk is fine."

'Thank jesus..'

At least that gave him a little piece of reassurance.

"My name is Lily, I am a freshman..."

'A freshman, of course. Tch. I'm a fucking Junior in freshman classes.' Alois rest his head on his hand, feeling his heart bang against his ribcage, the anticipation of the girl slowly talking through her introduction made it even worse.

Alois didn't even pay attention to what she was saying.

All he could do was sit there and try to pull together what he would say in his head, over and over, but to no avail could he pull together something impressive to say, without seeming like he was trying too hard to impress everyone.

Though, I don't think anyone would even be merely impressed that he is a JUNIOR in a freshman class.

Of course, he wasn't the only one, but he definitely felt like the only one.
