My palms started sweating. I couldn't do this. I couldn't end my life over a couple of stupid blondes. This is what they want. They want me out of the way, so the path is clear to Jacob. I gripped the knife harder. Should I? No. I love Jacob and those stupid girls won't get me down with their words. I am stronger than them, I am faster, more powerful. I let the knife fall to the floor with a thump. I crawled over to my bed, threw my face into my pillow, and cried. Teary makeup dripped down my face.

About 30 minutes later my phone buzzed. I stared at it from across the room. It's probably just another hate message, I thought, and stuffed my head back into my mascara-stained pillow.

Another hour passed, and my mom called me down for dinner. I groaned, and dragged myself to the bathroom to freshen up. I gazed into the mirror, disappointed with what I saw. I wiped off the eye makeup that was smeared across my face and threw my tangled brunette hair up into a ponytail.

"So how was your day, Hope?" My mom asked me.

"It was fine," I lied, plastering a big smile on my hideous face.

I quickly looked down, pretending to be interested in my meal to hide the salty tears that were gathering in my stormy grey eyes.

After a couple minutes of silence, I pushed my plate away.

"I'm not hungry," I said. Which, in fact, was another lie. I was starving. But maybe if I didn't eat, I wouldn't be so fat.
