BLAIR                                                                            

I hate my life,

I hate how perfect it is and how my family has calculated every moment of my life to the exact.

That's all I have been thinking about these past few days, but it doesn't matter anyway because at least I come from the richest family in Greece, that's what Daddy reminds me of all the time. I stop the rambling in my head as soon as the sound of the school bell rings and I enter my English class for the last time this year.

I sit up front next to Mrs.Smith's desk, which is full of ridiculous amounts of papers and notes of hers and I hope that the lesson starts soon. I can't get back on those thoughts of mine, not now, not today.

The classroom starts to get filled with more and more students making the room uncomfortable to be in, at least for me, nobody else seems bothered by the noise but I am, who would have guessed that the "miss perfect" as they called me didn't have any true friend. Everyone in this room thinks they know me by talking to me so we can spend my Daddy's money or asking me about my makeup routine, but no one has asked themself if they truly know "miss perfect". And here I am in my favorite class ever, daydreaming about having someone that understands me.

Thank god Mrs. Smith's voice stops my ridiculous thoughts. "Ok, guys, we can stop talking now because I have a super exciting group project for you that you have to do over this summer break. No excuses alright? So what you have to do is-" BJ freaking Jacobs enters the room. His dark, dirty blonde hair reflects on our school's black-and-white uniform.

I can't stand him, neither does Daddy. The Jacobs family is our biggest enemy in business and their family does pretty much everything to get ahead of us. But BJ doesn't seem to follow in his family's footsteps. He thinks that life is better without his family's money, that's what I hate about him. He thinks he is better than everyone else in Prep High just because he is rebelling. That's ridiculous-

"What do you think you are doing, Mr. Jacobs? You are lucky that today is the last day of school and I don't want to ruin it for you so go take a sit" said Mrs. Smith taking a deep breath. He sits behind me like he always does and crosses his hands to his chest.

"Alright now, as I was saying before Mr. Jacobs interrupted me, everyone in this class has to participate in this group project I have prepared for you guys. I will divide everyone into groups of two and your goal is to spend all summer with your partner, you have to get to know each other as better as possible, and to get to the actual project part, you have to write a book about your partners. When both of your books are done, then you will send the manuscript to me, ok any questions, before I go on?"

Someone has to be kidding me right? I absolutely cannot spend an entire summer with a single person in this room. But I also cannot risk my perfect straight A's for a stupid summer project right? My partner won't be that bad, will they?
