Zoe had spent the first twelve hours of her day riding in a car with her mother, who kept apologizing for the situation that they were in now. Her mother didn't mean a damn word she said or Zoe wouldn't even be here. She took one glance at her mother before biting her lip hard. "Shut the fuck up." She said rolling her eyes. "You are the reason we are even in this situation. Do you even realize what you've done?" She found herself smashing a foot against the floor board before brushing her hair out of her eyes. "My future is dead. Every pageant you put me in.. A fucking waste." She had no more respect for her mother. Her life was ruined and it was her mother's fault.

As the school came into view, Zoe felt herself closing up for the next year. She wasn't going to let anybody in because she no longer needed anybody. Her own mother let her down, so why would she even consider letting some stranger into her life. Before her mom could even put the car in park, Zoe was out of it making her way to the trunk. She quickly grabbed her luggage out and headed into the main entrance.

"Zoe, please. Wait." Her mother called as she was having trouble untangling the seatbelt from around her. "Zoe!" With one last glance back to her mother, she walked into the school. That's the thing about this school. No parents are allowed to come in with the kids. Something about making their start easier on them. Zoe was greatly at this point.

She ran into one of the teachers and was quickly escorted to the auditorium. She noticed that she was either close to last or dead last to enter the room. She stood up straight making her way to the front row, taking a seat far apart from anybody. Listening to the principal became a drag not even two seconds into his speech. She found herself looking around rather at him to see if she could catch glance at any of the other students. Before she knew it, the principal had dismissed them to unpack and mingle. She would do one of the two and that was unpack.

She rose from her chair and walked past the boy who claimed to be 'The Mask', politely excusing herself past him so she could get to the door. Out in the hall she found herself lost. She noticed a teacher guiding a boy away, so she followed close behind to see if the two were headed for the dorms. Luckily for her, they were. She had to pull out her booklet with the information provided to her and found that she was at the end of the hall. This would mean walking back to boy that she noted would be in room two.

"Hey." She said quickly before continuing on her way to her dorm, where she rushed to get inside before more students would appear. Once inside, she began to unpack. This became a huge drag the second she opened her suitcase. She found herself making up her bed and collapsing on top of it until she heard the bell for dinner.
