My name is Jenna and my story starts when I was seventeen years old. In school, I was known for having good grades and boys fancied me although I didn't think I was a looker. My life has always been good. My parents are in a happy marriage and I have gotten on with my family. And I have been blessed with some wonderful friends
Niamh, Natalie, Edel, Maggie and Adam. Teachers liked me and said I'm the best student they ever taught. In school, everyone liked me except for a few people: The Skanks
They were called Kitty, Katie, Kayla, Britney, Kerry, Sophia, Heather and Roxanne. Kitty, Katie and Kayla are cousins. Roxanne was the school ho who ran off with my boyfriend Chris. They're still together even though she cheats on him all the time. Chris and I are very good friends so we've got no hard feelings towards each other. Anyway, back to The Skanks
Katie and Kerry used to be my friends when we were children but we grew apart. Britney is English and she always told me that I'd never amount to anything in life
She said, "You'll never get a job, you'll never marry and you'll never have children. Nobody likes you. You might have friends but people are only pretending to like you. Even your family don't like you"
I cried when she said that. Heather was a vain girl who loved herself. She walked around like she was some big name celebrity. Sophia would always do what The Skanks would say. The girl had no mind of her own. My mother always liked her and said, "Someday, you and Sophia will be friends.” I laughed when she said that
My friends are wonderful. Niamh is a rocker who loves rock music. She always tried to convert me but I'll always love my rap music. Edel also tried to convert me too and would sometimes mock my taste in boys
Natalie and I have been friends since childhood. We love each other but she always told people about my crushes. Maggie is my cousin and is known for keeping a secret. Even if you told her a dark, dark secret, your secret would be safe with her
Adam is so funny. He fancied me when I was younger but I saw him as more of a brother. His jokes and impressions of The Skanks make me piss my pants. One day, my life changed forever
Miss Richards, our year head came to our classroom. She said, "Girls and boys. You'll soon have a new student in your class. His name is Paul Miller and he's from America." A week later, Paul arrived to our school. When I saw him for the first time, I fainted
