" I can't believe you forced me to come back to this school !" exclaimed Sarah, she was back at Standford High, where all the rich skinny girls and the hot basketball players went. This school was reputated for its good-looking students and Sarah was not one of them.

"It's my last year mom ! " She said while putting on her seatbelt.

"Exactly my point ! It's your last year. Why go through all the hastle to change school when you only have 10 months left ?" replied her mom, Sophie.

"Only ? You say only like ten months isn't long ! It's ten fucking months !"

Sarah hated this school, but most of all she hated the people that were here. She felt like she didn't belong here. Like she just showed up at a party that she wasn't invited to.

"Watch your language, Sarah, your brother is in the car !" Her mom warned. She was used to hearing Sarah complain. She was pretty pessimistic, always complaining about stuff and never saw the bright side in life.

"I don't understand why you can't just suck it up. It's just high school and you have your whole life ahead of you. Besides, ten months will fly by so quickly you won't even notice."

"You don't know that ! It's been forever since you were in high school ! You don't know what I've been through in that God forsaking place ! "

"Oh quit behing so melodramatic Sarah, you're starting to annoy me now ! You complain about the same things everyday, every year and nobody wants to hear it anymore, so suck it up and shut up already ! " Said Michael, Sarah's younger brother. He wasn't the type to interfere in other people's conversations, but he was seriously annoyed by his sister.

"Oh shut up Michael, you're not even in high school yet, you don't know what it's like !" Sarah replied, she was getting aggravated too now. She hated that people never understood her point of view. She was always the 'Bad Guy' whenever she decided to talk to her family about something.

"I will next year."

"Well you're not there yet, so shut up and go suck on your pacifier."

"Sarahlyn, I've had just about enough of you, if you won't stop complaining and insulting your brother, you can get out of this car right now and walk your ass to school !"

"FINE ! Stop the car then!" she shot back.

Her mom did just so. She wasn't in the mood to hear her daughter start fights with everyone around her this morning. She was to tired and all she wanted was some peace.

Sarah leapt out of the car before it even came to a full stop and slammed the door shut. She had had enough also. She was used to walking to school anyways. Last year, she would walk to school almost everyday because her mother couldn't stand being in a car with her for more than 10 minutes.

Walking to school will make me skinnier anyways, she thought while hoisting her school bag over her shoulder. While her walk to school, she thought about the students in her school. She wasn't looking forward to seeing anybody. Mostly because she didn't have any friends. But it didn't bother her that much. She could handle it. After all, when you're 17 and fat, you don't need any friends. Food is your only friend.

Sarah walked up the stairs of Standford High and examined her surroundings. Everything was the same. Same green painted walls, same beautifully polished stairs and same aura that screams ' RICH AND BEAUTIFUL ONLY'

She smiled to herself and thought looks like you'll have to put up with me for one more year Standford High.

Avoiding the gazes of the people around her, Sarah headed directly to the bathroom. It was her hang-out spot. It still is, and it will be for the rest of the year. She looked around the walls that was so familiar to her and searched for something different, maybe a message or a scratch on the wall. Something that would prove that someone other than her was passing their time here. Something that would probably make her feel less alone. Truth is, she hated being alone. She hated it more than she hated the snobs in her school. All she wanted was a friend, someone she could talk to and someone who would talk to her.
