 CHAPTER 1

     I laid back on my locker, watching Bradon talk to the other football players. I watched his every move. He didn't look over. Though, I wouldn't see why. No boys pay attention to me. I put on my glasses everyday, and it seems I wear a mask. The mask of a geek.

     Bradon walks away so I run past him. He glances over as I do the same to him. But no words slipped out. Just a look. And luckily I ran off just in time before I could hear him say my name in the halls. Though no one stared. Everyone probably figured that he is just making fun of me.

     I trip over my heels that my mother forced me to wear. I soon was laying on the wet, muddy ground. The embarrassment flushed onto my face as my cheeks grew red. People laughed hysterically and I just let them do it. I didn't care. I didn't care...

You're O.K. Emma. You are fine, no tears! I thought. But the thought didn't work and I felt a tears go down my cheeks. I brushed them quickly away before anyone could notice. But they did notice and I was just forced to run away. Run away from them and enter the pit of shame that was left for me in this world.

     I ran right into Bradon. His eyes were big because he was startled. He was looking into my red puffy eyes.

"I'm sorry," I say, feeling like I was going to cry again.

"It's fine," he says with a smile. Before he could say anything else I just ran away. I look behind me and his eyes were locked on me. I watched a little longer before my long blonde hair got in the way. I decided to just turn away and race after time. I run by a tree and I sit down and cried my heart out.

"I hate my life!" I cry. I bury my head in my knees and begged God to save me. I yelled and yelled, yet nothing happen! Isn't God supposed to help me right now?! I hear footsteps racing. I turn back and it was the Quarterback Bradon. I hide my face and held my breath. I soon sprinted away and hid behind another tree. Lucky enough, he didn't spot me. I poke my head out to see where he was. He was right where I was before. He was looking around for me. Searching the bushes, around the trees, and before he found me.

"Yo, Bradon! Where the Hell are you?!" a teammate called.

"I-I, just dropped my keys!" he answers.

"Well come on! We don't have all day!" the teammate calls. I watched closely-like how I always do- and waited until he left perfectly. I let out a huge breath of relief and walked away from the school. I was surely saved by the bell.

     I walk past the popular core. They smirked and laughed at me, but I surely kept my cool. Jenna laughs at me really loudly so everyone can hear. People giggled, some secretly snarled. People do pitty me, which I'm not really surprised. It's better than being picked on, right?

     I turn around and I walk up to her.

"Shut the Hell up," I snarl. Jenna just stands there frozen. I smirk and I walk away. How can Bradon even date that skank? I'll say, she must do stuff with boys.

"God these damn heels," I say to myself. I take them off and I walk barefoot on the conctete. I head for home.
