I never knew a girl and a guy could be more in love than me and my love. Never did I think I would instantly want to live my life with him. Never knew a guy so amazing would pick me. A nobody girl. Not popular and certainly not pretty. Not sporty and not cute. He was exactly all that. Sporty cute and very popular. You know when your with all your friends.
You guys play games like truth or dare and would you rather. Your friend asks you would you rather date Ashley Cooper or die. Your friend always picks die. I'm that girl.
Ashley Cooper. I was born march 8th 1999. I was born into a family of six kids. Three boys three girls and me. My mom was a single mom who struggled to hold her three jobs. My dad left after my oldest sister was born. He thought she wasn't worthy of being his daughter.
Lets fast forward a little bit. My family pretty much broke up when i was 14. Just my mom and my sister , Britney. I wake up every morning afraid of being pushed in the halls and afraid of feeling worthless. Until one day everything changed.
"Hey are you Ashley Cooper?"
No one and i mean no one has ever talked to me. And certainly not Liam Pierce. I looked over to make sure he wasn't talking to anyone else in the crowded hallways.
"Who me?"
Liam laughs "Ha yes of course you! Are you Ashley Cooper?"
So many thoughts run through my mind. What do i say.
"Ya? How did you know?" He looks very confused.
"Your singing video that you posted yesterday. It was amazing."
What? What is he talking about. I've never actually posted any of my videos. Please do not tell me Britney did. Which one was it. How did Liam see it!
"Uhh thanks uhh i gotta go to class! Bye"
How stupid can you be.. i was so dumb. I have a one and a life time chance to make a freaking new friend! But no my stupid mouth just is dumb. So dumb. Dang i am so freaking stupid. Next time anyone says anything to me i will speak up and i promise you and myself i will speak up and make sure i speak loud. As i run out of the bathroom with shame a embarrassment on my face i hear something.
"Look its Ashley Cooper!"
People start giggling. Not now not now please.
"Nice singing video." Kylie the most popular girl in the school shouts.
"Yah real good HA!" Her sidekick Lizzy says.
I feel my face becoming very red and hot. No no no. Liam is right there. I cant have him see me like this. I cant have josh stand there and watch me. I decide its time to stand up to those brats. I turn around and say. "Uh." I couldn't I just couldn't imagine the things they would do to me.
"Uh? Haha you cant sing or talk!" There dog breath rat face friend Jennifer spits at me.
I felt my throat slowly in closing. My breath shortening anf my lips began to quiver. As i looked around the halls i caught a glimpse of Liam. I knew he could see the pain in my eyes. I look over at Kylie Lizzy and Jennifer and shouted.
"What? What do you want from me?"
"Oh maybe she does talk?" Jennifer giggles.
"We want you to die. We want you to just give up already. Nobody likes you." Kylie smiles in victory like shes won an Oscar.
"Lets put it to the test. Raise your hand if you would ever want to be Ashley Coopers friend?"
No one raises their hand. I begin to realize. They are right. No one likes me. No one wants me on this earth. Theres no reason for my existence. I turn around in shame. Liam turns into the crowd and shouts
"I do!"
"Liam? No. Honey are you blind." Kylie winks
"No but are you deaf cause i clearly answered your question with an i do."
"But its Ashley Cooper."
"And im Liam Pierce big whoop shes human too!"
I decided to express my opinion.
"Uh.. Id like to say that id rather get bullied than watch the most popular people in school fight. (Kylie and Liam)
"Nobody cares!" The entire grade shouts.
Liam looks angrily around at his peers. I wonder why he cares so much what people think about me all of the sudden. Im nobody special and im nobody worth anyones time.
"I do. I truthfully honestly care so much. Ashley Cooper may not be the loudest most outgoing person or the most popular girl but i do not care. Everyone always cares so much about where you are placed on the popularity scale. Or where you sit at the lunch tables. Maybe i dont want to be a jock anymore. Maybe i dont want to be popular! Look around Kylie. Youve created such dedication towards life in school that youve forgotten about your own out. Is your main priority to be popular really worth it. Is it really necessary. Also to think that you are out to get this one girl out of thousands there has to be something special about her. So back off Kylie and your dogs. Clearly the lack of self confidence you guys have for yourselves just isnt going to rub off on others. Now i think we all have a class to get to."
I couldn't believe it. Liam Pierce just stood up to the most beautiful popular girl in the entire school. What happened. What song did i sing in that video. I need to go home now and find out A.S.A.P!
