CHAPTER 4:
*BEEP! BEEP! BEEP* I woke up, blah, blah, blah. It was raining today. I love rain actually. but not today. Today i had to ride my skateboard to school ... in the rain and I had some of my first classes with brie and her posy. Yippee. because it was a little colder i decided to wear this: Not too ugly but still comfortable. I guess after yesterday I noticed how crappy my wardrobe is. so, I'm trying something newish.
I ate my breakfast and got my bag together and headed for the door. As I walked down my steps *and there were exactly 17 of them. I liked to count them...* I heard a knock at the door. Our maid opened it to a pink faced little blondie with his brother I think. With my skateboard in hand I walked over to him. "hey" the older one said. "I'm Greg, Niall's brother." He smiled and I just nodded. "well, come on then" Greg said gesturing to his car. "Ummm... where?" "Its raining and I thought you needed a ride" Niall spoke up. before I could protest I was being taken to his car. Niall held a big umbrella over my head and opened the door for me to get in. I had the skateboard on my lap and Greg started off. Perfect. As we pulled up to the side Niall and I quickly got out and thanked Greg as we hurried to class trying to keep as dry as possible. First class was geography with one of my favourite teachers. he was really nice and always had jokes through out his lessons. Nialler got into class first and was sitting towards the back gesturing for me to sit next to him. I had set down my bag when I heard the little squeaky laugh of little miss popular come up next to me. "HEY NIALLLLLL!" She squeaked. He just nodded. "Why don't you sit with us at lunch today?" "I'm fine. thanks" 'Fine" She pouted as she quickly spun away and began whispering to her friends. It was cold outside and being the little barbie she is wore this to school today:
Why would someone want to look like that. And what do her parents think?! She would actually be pretty if her make-up didn't weigh 10 pounds and her attitude was changed. But no. She's a jerk. When the teacher came into the class everyone went silent. "hellooooo class" "Hiiiii!" Everyone responded with a smile. After about 10 minutes a note got passed to Nialler from Brie. it had her name written on it in big letters with a heart over the 'i' and her lip gloss on it. Niall slowly opened it and rolled his eyes. He stared down at the paper with worry in his eyes. I tried to get his attention but he wouldn't look at me. When the bell rang he hurried out of class and left me behind. What was that about. gym was next. Uggg. I hated gym. I can do the splits and everything but i hate the stupid posy of girls who never let me on their teams and the boys looking at everyone's butts in the shorts. Ew. Niall went to play soccer with the boys and I was forced to be by myself. i told the coach I was fine stretching by myself so I went over to the corner away from everyone and started my bridges and splits. After a few minutes I noticed the girls whispering among themselves and giving me glares. just another day in paradise right. Sadly, I found out what they were saying. They started their game of volleyball and about ten minutes later i looked up to see Brie serving the ball...at my face. I wasn't quick enough and the ball hit my nose causing it to make a horrible cracking noise. I quickly sprang up with blood running down my face now and all over my t shirt. The coach told me to clean myself up and see the nurse if needed while Brie and the girls cried laughing and pointing at me. The eyes were now all on me. Including Niall. Who just stood there. not coming to my aid, not looking worried, just, nothing. He blankly stared at me until i turned to run to the locker rooms. What was happening? This morning he drives me to school so i don't get wet and the second hour he couldn't care less about brie making my nose bleed? I should have known. no one stays. Ever. I cleaned myself off and changed back into my normal clothes. I decided to go wait for my next class. I looked in the mirror. Great. I had a purple bruise forming around my nose. I grabbed my board and went out to the hallway. I could hear the laughs of Brie echoing in my head. I told myself I wouldn't do it any more but I needed to. I can't deal with this. The rest of the day was just stupid teachers and people laughing about my bruise and brie with Niall. Wait, WHAT! Brie... with...Niall?! He was sitting and laughing with her at lunch. I couldn't breathe. I-I was in disbelief. I waited outside of the school doors for Niall. He came out still with brie. I had tears in my eyes. A thunder storm threatening to strike. I walked straight up to him and stared him in the eyes. Niall spoke up like if nothing was wrong. "Oh, Hey. What's up Natie?" "Yea. So sorry about gym... haha." brie said. "Don't call me that. And don't talk to me ever again. I-I hate you." i said it. And then, i ran off. it was still raining so the make up i had on began melting down my face leaving black smeared on my cheeks. My hair was now soaked but I didn't care. I didn't want to go home so i just kept walking. I heard a car pull up beside me and it was Greg. "Hey, is that you Natie? Do you need a ride? Natie! What happened.?" he kept following me and calling out my name. "WHAT!" I finally screamed. Greg got out of the car and helped me into the front seat. He was really nice actually. He was on his way to his friends house and decided to take me with him. Once we got to his friends house it had started raining even harder. he knocked on the door and some boy came out. Once inside he told me where the bathroom was and I washed up. My bruise was darker now but I washed all my make up off at least. When I came out Greg s friend had made me a hot chocolate and gave me a towel to dry my hair with. I sat down next to Them and they made me tell them what happened. I told them how Niall ignored me all day and what Brie did to me ect. ect. and what I said to Niall. Greg was just as confused as I was about Niall's behaviour. He said how Niall was all excited he had me as his new friend and had no idea why Niall would do that. It was already 7:30 pm so Greg took me home, he said he would have a talk with Niall. After I had finished my homework I went to bed only to be woken up at three a.m by my phone. i answered it without looking. BIG mistake. "Hmmm..." I said. "We need to talk" an Irish voice cracked. "I'm so sorry I-" "No." I replied and hung up the phone and put it on silent. I hardly got any sleep because my nightmares started up again. great.
