CHAPTER 1:
Another day...
Another day...
*BEEP* *BEEP* *BEEP*6:30am Great... Now I'm going to get up, do my beautiful make up, go down to a mother making pancakes, a dad reading the newspaper and ride to school with my best friends. HA. Ya right. I'm Natalie. Natalie Jade Westbrook. I have long wavy light brown hair and brown eyes. nothing special. My parents work all day only to come home and sleep. I don't really have any friends. I'm just not... "normal". Well, what they consider normal. My clothes aren't super cute. I shop at good will. Sure we have a lot of money due to my parents constantly working but it doesn't mean I go around telling everyone that. People would use me. Use me for my money and then leave me.
Now I have good grades because I'm always alone and I end up studying which helped me to become the "school nerd "if you will. In a nut-shell... I hate my life. My parents never talk to me ever. I'm just fed up with, with EVERYONE! They all say if you want to have friends change and fit in. ya, been there, done that. All that ended up happening was being "popular' for a few months before I realized my stupid mistake. They had me wear sleazy clothes and would always "forget" their wallets and "promise" to pay me back whenever they saw some cute (and expensive) clothes. Then they'd talk about me behind my back like the dirt bags they are... My parents seemed to only get home in time to yell at me for something I didn't do. Jerks. My parents are like... the popular kids. If everything doesn't go their way. They freak out on me. I tried to do nice things for them. Breakfast, gifts. They never cared. ever. no one ever does. "Guapa! Corre! Tienes 10 minutos!" Called our house keeper. I have to admit. She's the only person I like. She also taught me Spanish! "Adios Xenia!" I called out to her before running outside. I grabbed my skateboard and went to school. It only took me about 5-10 minutes. I got in the classroom just before the teacher thankfully.
teacher: "Class. I'd like you to meet our new student. Niall, please introduce yourself."
a little blonde boy with brown roots came up from behind the teacher. We were in the 9th grade. I was 14 like he was.
Niall: "Um, uh. I'm Nialler or uh, Niall. Niall Horan." "HI!" Everyone replied. "You can go take the seat in the back by.... Natalie. She can show you around today ok?"
No, no no NO! I'm a little shy, I guess. Not the centre of attention kind of girl. He smiled at me which I denied by quickly pulling my bag closer to me and hanging my head low. "hi, Natalie. Right?"
"you don't talk much... do you?" Gosh! Would he just SHUT UP! This was going to be a long.... day. As soon as the bell rang I packed my bags up quickly and began running for the door. "Hey! Wait up!" The blonde boy yelled. I did NOT want to talk to him at all. But he caught up to me.
Ni: "Natalie. Where is the next class?" Speaking wasn't exactly my strong suite either...
"I-I uh, um... where's your locker?"
"32-A" "Oh, well. I'm 33-A, just... follow me, I guess" We walked down a few hallways before coming up to our lockers which were almost side by side. Brie, the class jerk, has 32-B... I really despise her guts. I like fantasizing about killing her though. Why couldn't this boy just leave me alone!?
Ni: "Soooo... can we get together today after school? I need help organizing and catching up on some science thing" Na: "Uh.... I guess. you can come over to my house. I live near. My parents are probably at work too." "GREAT! Thanks Natie!!!" "Uh...Natie?"
"Ya.. we are friends now so you need a nickname. Mine is Nialler."
Just then Brie walked up with her freakish little possey of sluts. She was wearing some super tight skinny jeans and a crop top that showed her new belly-button ring. Grose.
B: "HI! Nialler, right?" Ni: "Ya. And you are?" Heehee. I kind of liked his accent.
B: "I'm Brie! I know it must be difficult being the new kid so I was thinking maybe we could hang-out tonight. I could help you get organized!"
Ni: "Thanks but I'm good. I'm going to Natie's house" crap,crap,crap.... Why did he have to tall her!? "Oh really..." She said in her little barbie doll voice. "That's a shame. You've gotten paired with the weird skater kid already..." "She's right Niall. Just- just go to her house today" I started walking away but I shouldn't have looked away because Barbie "accidentally" stuck her foot out causing me to go flying onto the floor with my books scattered around me. great. All eyes on me. normally i would have cried but I couldn't give her the satisfaction. I got my books and quickly walked away. I hate her sooooo much. All I could hear was Niall shouting something about a book. Oh, well. I'll get it after class. I was late anyway.
