"Lizzy come on, we're going to be late" shouts my best friend Sam from the living room

"Relax Sam I'm coming we won't miss the bus ugh" I say as I put on a jacket and head downstairs

As we get out of the house, I'm welcomed with the sight of my marvellous neighbour
Janelle Jones

"Jeez Sam, look who is here" I scoff

"Janelle Jones ?"

Hearing her full name was enough to set me in a bad mood. To start with, the alliteration in her full name is so unpleasant to hear and to pronounce.

Janelle is one of those girls who isn't popular but is liked by everyone. She'd  rather read a book on a Friday night than partying.

What I hate the most about her is her unusual yet beautiful clothes. She is always dressed up to the nines. Her long brown curls are natural and pretty, and her makeup is always flawless .

I'm not jealous of her, but since she moved in she started to hang out with many boys including my boyfriend, Jake.

He keeps convincing me that they are just friends, every time Janelle comes near Jake, I always make sure to be there too. You never know what's going on inside those cringe girls' heads

She walks into the bus first then my friend and I go to sit at the very end.
                                      ...
Arriving at school I'm immediately heading to my group of friends, I do have a lot.

Some of them are more acquaintances but it's always nice to be invited to parties by many people.

As Sam and I join our friend group I ask
"where is Jack ?"

"I don't know, he might come a bit later than usual" says one of his friend

After some small talk with my friends they all look to a certain direction and start oohing

Sam immediately holds me by my shoulders and orders
"don't look behind you Lizzy."

I obviously snatch her hands away from me, turn the other way around.
My eyes are glued on Jake and Janelle entering the school doors together.

My blood is already boiling as I firmly come toward them. When Jake sees me he awkwardly smiles
"oh hi baby, long time no see"

I glare at him in disgust, I turn to Janelle. Her beautiful blue eyes meet mine.
Beautiful ? I shake away those thoughts

"You should back off, I have to talk to my boyfriend and you're of course not required there"

She nods considerably ,turns on her heels and strides out

Jake approaches me and holds me by my waist, he gives me a peck then starts to go away

"Are you fucking serious ?" I ask offended

"What Lizzy ? We've got class. If you wanna talk meet me outside after the second period. See ya"

He always used to come with me and accompanied me to my classes. What the fuck is wrong with him.

Sam shouts at me as I'm deep in my thoughts
"Lizzyyyy we've got class ugh, Ms. Graham won't let us be late once again"

She grabs my hand, I hate it, I hate intimate physical contacts with girls, it makes me feel something that I can't describe. I'm really reluctant about it.
