Good Girl Gone Bad

Chapter 2

His name was Finn , he wore ripped skinny jeans a plain black tshirt and if you looked closely he had a scar on his lip. He is new in town but he looked sort of interesting.

During break I hung out with my usual friends, probably the only people who didn't call me a snitch or a goody two shoes .

I watched Finn closely but not making it obvious, I watched him walk around trying to find somewhere to fit in, he eventually found Ian and Mark, two of the schools biggest troublemakers, but I guess that's where he fits in.

Still watching him our of the corner of my eye, I saw him looking at me and then suddenly pointed on my direction, talking to Mark at the same time, he was probably asking him if I am the girl that everyone practically hates.

After a few more classes, the end of the day finally came and I walked out of the classroom when suddenly someone grabbed my hand and pulled me back, it was Finn.

"C-can I h-help you" I stuttered, I don't really speak to people like him so I was a little scared. "I just, umm, I just wanted to know your name" he replied, "Oh, it's Valerie", I said shyly with a tiny smile and then noticed he was still holding my hand,he must have noticed to, because he quickly let go of it.

I walked to the school gates after saying an awkward goodbye to Finn. I saw my brothers waiting for me. We walked home in silence.

As we walked through the door we saw mom cooking and cleaning, not her usual afternoon routine. " Hi kids, please go upstairs and clean your bedroom, we are having guests tonight , they are new in town." mom said. As I heard the words new in town, I knew it had to be Finn and his family. This night could be very awkward after what happened this afternoon.

I walked slowly upstairs and sat on my bed once I'd gotten into my room. I didn't need to clean, my bedroom was possibly the cleanest room in the house, possibly cleaner than the kitchen.

I started doing my homework, which took me about 20 minutes and then got re-dressed into a pair of black skinny jeans a loose pink shirt and my floral pumps.

I headed downstairs to help my mom set the table before our guest arrived.

Everything was clean and ready when the doorbell rang, mom had asked me to answer it and let them in, I did as I was told.

I opened the door to see a middle aged woman and man,I could see Finn standing behind them but he couldn't see me.

I greeted his parents and let them in, then he saw me. He looked shocked when he saw me, but I just let him in, still with his eyes wide.
