My Cousins Bestfriend

Chapter 1 - Before it all begun

The bell rings for class, all the students are speeding to there lessons but I'm plodding along.
'I really can't be bothered today' i announce as I adjust my strap on my bag.
'Neither can I' replies Charlotte.
'Come on girls' a teacher shouts 'you're going to be late'

I walk into my lesson, everyones eyes dart at me, I look around the class for an open seat but the only seat available is next to kelan "The bad boy" i have to say he his hot though, I rush to the seat before the teacher can say anything to me.

A girl across the room makes a snarky remark. 'Oh look it's Augustus Gloop' she shouts. A sea of laughter fills the room. I look around, my face is as red as a tomato, i bow my head. 'Oh shut your trap Britney!' Snaps kelan. He looks at me and mouths 'Are you okay?' I smiles and nod, my face still on fire.

After class is finished i head to the door, Britney sticks her foot out and trips me up, i stumble a few steps towards the door but I put my arms out and manage to catch my balance on the door frame. I look back at Britney with narrow eyes, she is a bitch.

Britney is "the popular" girl she has long brunette hair that reaches just above her arse, she always wears her skirt so short and has her top buttons undone, to get the boys attention mainly.

Her and her friends are hackling, kelan nudges Britneys shoulder as he walks past her then comes over to me, his piercing blue eyes look deep into my soul and he asks if I'm okay. 'Yes, thank you' my hands still shaking from the shock, 'Try to ignore Britney, she can be a bitch sometimes' he jokes. 'I'm not bothered by her, she is just using me for entertainment, she's bored' I imply. I'm totally bothered and wish she would leave me alone. 'Most girls are like that, Just because she is "pretty" She thinks everyone likes her' he reveals 'anyway as long as you're okay, I have to go and meet some friends, see you in a bit' as he turns around he winks at me and then heads out the door. My stomach fills with butterflies.

I'm walking down the corridor, dodging everyone I walk past. Which I manage to do. My mind wanders and I think about kelan 'why is he being so nice to me'

'Hey girl!' Yells Charlotte from down the hall.
Charlotte has been my best friend since we were four, we met at nursery and have been best friends ever since.'Hey babe!' I shout back. Charlotte runs up and gives me a hug like she hasn't seen me in years.

'How was your first lesson?' She questions.

Terrible

'Well... Britney called me Augustus Gloop but Kelan stuck up for me, which was weird'
'Maybe he likes you...'
'There is no way, I'm nowhere near his type' I hesitate.
Kelan is a "bad boy" but my god he is so attractive, Charlotte gives me a hopeful glare.

*****************************

I arrive home from school take my keys from my pocket and slide them into the lock and swing the door open, I slip off my shoes and sprints upstairs. I reach for my bedroom door handle and push it open. Once inside I jump on my bed and get my iPad from my bag, I begin to look through Kelans Instagram page but all I find is pictures of him at parties and him playing football.

I decides to look on Facebook but again I find nothing. I drop my head back on my pillow in defeat.

I decide its pointless so I put the iPad down, change my clothes, put on my trainers and heads down stairs.
