[center] [i] It's broken! [/i] Elisabeth thought as she repeated what a girl said. Then she heard the girl call her a slut. She looked over at her with a confused look, why would she refer Elisabeth to a slut when she doesn't even know her? She shook it off and looked over to the guy and felt horrible for braking his nose practically.  Elisabeth was extremely confused as this guy who was ready to hit her it seemed, now said that it was an accident and that they happen. She never really heard someone be so calm. She looked at him, still afraid, she just watched him as he calmly spoke to everyone and then back to her again. Elisabeth looked at him at his final words "honestly it's okay" what he said. She looked at him and could obvoiusly tell he wasn't okay with what had just happened.

Being with her father made her real observant when someone is upset, she needed to be alert on these things because then she would know if her dad was in a worse mood than he was normally. That made all the difference on what kind of beatings she would receive that day. And so she was very keen to noticing when something wasn't right. Instead of questioning it, she then just walked away. Then paused and turned back around just the two of them in the room. "I really am sorry, And I can tell you're not okay" was all she said and she just walked off. She had to get to that ceremony, a welcoming ceremony I guess they had called it. Why? Were there actually that many new kids they needed a welcoming ceremony?! Oh well, it didn't matter to Elisabeth, she just needed to get through this first day of school, already having a horrible day as it was. Being late and all. She felt the sting of the cut and she grabbed her arm, her face looking like she was in pain. She then put on a face to hide the pain.

She was good at hiding pain, as she as in pain all the time, not just from the cut she had gotten this morning. But from all the bruises she seemed to acquire during her lifetime. Some were worse than others as ou could tell they've been there for a while. And just as one finally goes away, another one comes along. A small sigh escaped her pale lips as she stood in the doorway of the gym. Teens were all walking about finding their friends on the bleachers, teachers talking in a group about the upcoming presentations and who will be speaking. Elisabeth then walked into the room and found a spot on the top of the bleachers, waiting for the ceremony to start. 

"Attention students….." the principle had started. Talking was still going on and he put his voice louder. "ATTENTION STUDENTS." He practically had to scream to get their attention, Elisabeth rolled her eyes at the fact. "Now, we will begin our welcoming ceremony with a lovely performance by the cheer squad." (Unsure of the name and colors etc) Elisabeth didn't see the "Lovelyness" of these girls dressed in short skirts and practically tanktops, yet this school had a strict not slutty dressing from the girls, yet the cheerleaders can dress however they like. She rolled her eyes at how this school treats the "Athletic" teams. She didn't see it as athletics or a sport or whatever. She saw it as a bunch of girls trying to get attention from guys. The principle stepped off stage and the silent room filled with a bunch of loud cheering and cheerleaders running into the gym with flips and running and a whole bunch of different stuff. 

As the cheer performance went on Elisabeth politely watched and payed attention just waiting for this day to be over. She didn't see how this day could get any worse. After the cheer performance the principle then walked back on stage and announced his first speaker. (Left this part open unsure of who you wanted to speak first etc.) [/center]
