First Day Nerves

Summary:

Tiny, smol Charlie has the first day of school jitters...

Notes:

This was originally posted as part of a collective fic It's not the size that matters , of 57 different drabbles written by different people in our community ❤️

This was my entry, and I'm choosing to post it now as a stand alone drabble as part of my own collection 🥰

Gifting it to my fabulous flamingo CadburyOreo , just because 💜💜💜

Work Text:

I walk along Truham Grammar's unfamiliar halls, pulling uncomfortably at the collar of my school shirt. It feels too big, I tried to tell Mum but she wouldn't listen. Said it gave me room to grow. The way it is bunched up under my blazer makes me feel all itchy.

I feel nervous in this big new school.

I miss my primary school, and my friends who have gone somewhere different.

What if I don't make any new friends?

I walk into the classroom and sit down. The boy next to me turns, and smile.

"Hey, I'm Tao."

"Charlie."

"Cool."
