Alone together

Chapter 1

Megan

Just another day in the boring life of Megan Brown, me. It's so slow and monotonous that anybody in their right mind would have already become frustrated.

Well, guess what? I am freakin' frustrated.

But, I chose this life. I isolated myself and chose to be what I am today. A nerd.

But, I'm kind of happy too but there are just times when you can't help but feel lonely but you are helples to yourself.

Oh, well. When I woke up today, I would have never thought I will be stuck with the one person I despise the most. Blake Johnson.

I sometimes feel that I hate him so much because everyone loves him so much. He is the angel of everyone's eyes.

He has so many friends. So yeah, I am jealous of his popularity, the love he recieves everyday and how everything he touches turns to gold. Not.

English class used to be my favourite but now I don't think I will ever be able to like it again. Reason- Blake.

We have this project where we have to research and write a biography of your partner and an autobiography. Oh! And guess what? I was paired up with 'Mr. Know-it-all'.

Woo-freakin'-hoo.

"This project is the one with the highest weightage and will effect your grade the most. I hope you all co-ordinate and yes, good luck!" Mrs. Claire said to the class. Co-ordinate? My foot.

"You may all discuss the project and its presentaion with your partner till the bell rings." She said.

I saw Blake from the corner of my eye. He was strolling towards me.

Gosh! why?

"Hey partner!" He said all too enthusiastically. I cringed at his high pitched happy voice and only grunted in response.

"Umm. Hi! I'm Blake Johnson." He thought I had not heard him. Wow! He's dumb.

"I know and I would be obliged if you leave me alone." I said without looking at him. My eyes trailed along the words in my book.

"We have been assigned parters on this-" He started.

"Project. I know. I have ears you know?" I did not let him finish.

"Oh, okay." He frowned.

"So, how do we work on this project?" This guy just never shuts up does he?

"Look, I don't want to work on this project with you. I'll do this on my own. You may go and find another partner for yourself." I snapped at him.

"Ms. Brown, I think I made it clear that this is a project that has to be done with your assigned partners. I assume, if you do not want to work with Mr. Johnson then you would be okay with failing in this subject." Mrs. Claire suddenly said from behind me.

I turned around to look at her because I was startled by her tone but soon recovered because I knew she was under the spell of the wizard in diguise- Blake Johnson.

"No miss, but I do feel that I have been doing fairly well alone and I can do that even for this project. I'll write the biography of some famous author or something." I replied confidently.

I knew she wouldn't mind it. She was the coolest teacher in the entire world.
"Look, Megan. This project idea is a result of a lot of consultations and hard work. I don't want your grade to fall down. Please?" Oh I know what she was doing. The deadly puppy dog face.

She so knew I couldn't say no to that.

"Fine" I spat.

This project is going to be so much fun. Not.

I saw the jerk smirking from the corner of my eye. Game on Blake Johnson. Game. On.

MEGAN-0, BLAKE-1
