『 "Trust is like a mirror, you can fix it if it's broken, but you can still see the crack in that mother fucker's reflection." 』

The universe is an amazing place. It is interesting when you think about it, how much we know and how much we don’t know. For instance, how we know so many different species, through different kingdoms and genus. Yet there are almost just as many undiscovered creatures, especially lurking in the oceans. It is amazing how we know and can identify several planets and celestial bodies. Yet we don’t know where the edge of the universe is. It is amazing how the sun can be over 90 million miles away, and yet somehow, in some way, the only light entering Annabel’s room was directly on her eyeball.
The sudden light in the eyes shocked her from her sleep and a groan erupted from the young girl curled up in her bed sheets. It was the first day of classes for the new girl, coming in to a brand new high school junior year. It was almost soul shattering to her, having to uproot herself from all of her friends back west, while her parents worked on moving out to the east coast. Annabel was already in the new house, while her parents finished up some work and settled some affair back home. Crawling out of bed she figured that she shouldn't refer to that place as home anymore. This was home, for now. After getting dressed in the new school's uniform; white button down shirt, black skirt, and a plaid necktie, Annabel made her way down the stairs, brushing through her long blond locks. Besides the gentle pitter-patter of her socked feet on the floor, the house was completely silent. She appreciated this new privacy, though not too new as her parents were relatively absent as long as she could remember.
Annabel huffed under her breath and tied up her hair in a messy bun. She was naturally a social butterfly, so she needed her fair share of social interaction. So starting out a new school would be just a little bit of a challenge. Grabbing her bag off the counter, her cell phone, keys, and throwing on her dress shoes, she hopped out the door and headed straight to the school in her silver Volvo. Moonlight Villa Academy was a very nice school, considering it was public. But maybe the schools were just naturally nicer on the east coast. Annabel wasn't so sure, but she did find it odd that a public school required a uniform. Wandering onto the campus, there was already a great crowd of students bustling around, telling stories about their summer vacations, trips, and parties. It felt odd not being able to chime in naturally, like she would have back home. But she new it would take a little time and warmth until she could finally make some friends.
"HEADS UP!" Someone yelled out behind her. She wasn't fast enough to turn when a football came flying through the air, and just smacked her shoulder. It caused her to fall back, but luckily not completely lose her footing.
"Ah, shit! Are you okay- uhh..." The guy realized he was lost for words, not knowing this new face.
"Annabel. That's my name. I'm new here... Is it just an eastern thing to introduce yourself with the collision of flying objects?" She quickly spoke and leaned down to grab the football before playfully shoving it into the guy's chest. She was trying to start up a friendly conversation with, who she could obviously tell based on his letterman jacket was on the school's football team. A weird smirk seemed to grow on his face as she mentioned new girl. In fact, Annabel noticed the turning of quite a few heads.
"Ah! A noobie!! Welcome to Moonlight Villa. And to answer your question, no. I think I was just trying to get your attention. Name is Ralph." The dark haired, tan skinned boy reached out his hand, and shook Annabel's hand. A few heads turned away and Ralph began leading Annabel back towards a guys and girls. All very athletic looking.
Annabel herself wasn't big into school sports, or even cheer leading. Yet somehow she always found a way to get into their group.
"Hey, we got some fresh meat here." Some of the heads looked up and started giggling, and a few seemed to shake their head. Annabel wasn't sure what this whole "new girl" deal was about. But at the same time, she figured this must have been what it was like for everyone going to a new school.
