High school stories

You turn to look at the person sitting next to you. It's a girl. She has her strawberry blonde hair tied into a bun and cheerful green eyes that are crinkled at the corners. She smiles at you warmly, and says, "Same!"
Your stony self melts a little. Maybe you can share your pain with her! Besides, it would be nice to have someone with you who was as confused as you were.
The both of you get talking and discover that you are enrolled into the same school. You let out a sigh. Maybe things are not going to be as bad as they seemed before.
You arrive at your stop, and the two of you get down hurriedly. You look up at the big school your parents insisted you go to. It's huge! That wretched nervous feeling is back., But it's less prominent now that you are with someone.
"Oh, by the way, what's your name?" You ask, turning to look at the girl.
"Huh? Oh, right. My name is Emma. And yours?
"Its Alex." You look at each other, and she says, "Let's do this."
You take a deep breath and walk in.
