Today wasn't just a regular day. Today was a Friday and I knew my friends would continue to pester me. They wanted to do wild things throughout the weekend, and I wasn't up for it. I played with my fingers and my necklace that my father gave me for my birthday. It was a nervous habit. I always did that when I was nervous. I know what you're thinking, but at least I don't bite my nails when I'm nervous. I had to find an excuse to avoid hanging out with them. I used the same excuse two times in the previous weeks. I didn't realize my thoughts were trailing off until I saw my teacher, Mrs. Grumpy (Mrs. Anderson) who cleared her throat and glared at me from the corner of her eye. I looked up from my book and saw her a few meters away from my desk glaring at me.

"Give me your phone?" She barked.

"What?" 

"Give me your phone." She said. She laced every word with disgust like she was talking to a disobedient animal. 

"Why?"

"As president of the student council, you are expected to be on your best behaviour. You should be an example to other students."

"Okay, what's your point?" I glared at her.

"Why are you using your phone in class?" She asked.

I raised both my hands up in defense. "I'm not using my phone." I inwardly rolled my eyes at her. 

"Well you were meant to be paying attention. Not staring into space like you always do."

"I was taking notes....." I spat.

"Fine." Was all she said and walked off to her desk, her heels clicking each time she made a step. 

I rolled my eyes at her stupidity, this time for real. Yes I was student council president, but why was I always burdened with everything? I wasn't the perfect girl and I didn't expect myself to be perfect, and I didn’t like it when people had high expectations of me that I couldn’t meet. 

My best friend Kate nudged my elbow "I can't wait to go home."

I nodded in response. I wasn't in the best mood right now.

Most kids in my class, would rather be partying than be stuck in class. Get drunk by the beach or anywhere really. But I wasn’t really into that. Don’t get me wrong, I loved to have parties, go shopping with my friends. I was rich but I wasn’t like those spoilt brats who didn’t care about anything but themselves. The final bell rang, indicating that the class was over and so were we for the day. I let out the breath I was holding for so long and sighed. I picked up my books and made my way to the door, but so did someone who I hated. Brandon one of the rich arrogant little bastards.

He bumped into me which made me drop my books.

"Watch where you're going." He said with an authoritative tone.

"Shouldn't you? How could I have known you were behind me?" I retorted. 

"Pshhh, whatever." He snorted.

I picked up my books from the floor and he turned around giving me his signature arrogant smirk. I gave him the dirtiest look I could give and his grin just grew wider. 

I mentally rolled my eyes at him, he was a rich brat. People even said that he was a gangster, and he would often have brawls, which explains the scars on his face he comes to school with occasionally. People also said he was quite the playboy. I couldn't be bothered with whatever, I even spent my time wondering why girls even liked him. I hated him and his guts.

Little did I know that I would soon grow to start liking him. Just like in any other movie I've watched where the so called 'innocent' girl falls in love with 'the bad boy'. After a few problems and misunderstandings here and there, they fall in love and live happily ever after.

But my story, isn't like those stories that you read about or watch. It isn’t about simply falling in love and getting whatever I want. It isn’t about those cliché happy endings. It’s something dreadful. Something I wish never happened to me.
