The Badboy Project

Chapter One

There's complete silence, as i walk down my high school corridor. Every head is turned to my direction. the classic line of every girl wants to be me and every guy wants to be with me. Graduation is in 10 weeks, and I'm passing with flying colours. I may be popular but I can still do school, I'm not a moron. 

"Hey girl, you still on for the party tonight" my best friend Allie asks

I give her a hug and a kiss on the cheek, "you know it huni"

We walk throughout the school arm in arm. every person stopping and moving aside to let us past. Our first class is English which again not to boast but the teacher is getting paid for nothing. so as he "teaches" let me tell you more about myself.

My name is Stephanie, I'm 17 years old. I am what they call the "queen bee" of the school, but not the bitchy type. I'm a straight A student, a virgin and I only have one best friend Allie, who has been with me since day one. One last thing there's only one person who hates me in school, but you'll meet them sooner rather than later.

"Stephanie are you listening?" Mr Kennedy asks

I look up and nod my head, embarrassed.

"Tell me one fact about William Shakespeare" he snarkly asks

"Well there's a lot sir, he wrote 37 plays throughout his life, but if that's not factual enough what about how his writing reflecting diseases and death is actually about his son Hamlet who died age 11" I say while yawning.

Mr Kennedy rolls his eyes and goes back to teaching.

*school bell rings*

I quickly get up from my seat and swing my school bag over my shoulder.

"Will you watch it!" Zach sneered

I roll my eyes and walk away as quick as I can from him.

Meet Zach... the high school jerk. He's as cliche as they come, it's as if he's come right out of a watt-pad book. For years this boy has tortured me, from pranks, trying to get me in trouble, and really just being a pain in my ass. I try to stay away from him, but it's hard when he's in most of my classes.

I walk up to my locker to get my books out for history (which is my favourite subject), when familiar hands wrap around my waist.

"Hey baby" Peter whispers

"Hey Peter" I reply shutting my locker door, as i turn to walk towards my class. His grip gets tighter.

"Where are you going princess?"

"Peter I need to get to History" I roll my eyes.

"Without giving me a kiss" he leans in, eyes closed.

I place my finger to his lip, " No Peter, how many times do I have to tell you."

"Awk baby, it's just a kiss"

I walk away from him before he starts another heated argument in front of everyone. I know what you're thinking. Why won't you kiss him? Well yes I've kissed before but just a peck, I've never properly kissed someone. I want it to be special, not in a filthy school corridor. Yes Peter is my boyfriend, yes we've been dating for 6 months, but I don't love him.

I walked into History, five minutes late thanks to Peter. Miss Henley looks at me disappointed. I mouth a sorry and go to sit in my usual seat, but it's already taken. I look around the room and see that the only free seat available is beside Zach. FML. I sit beside him, pretending that he isn't even there and listen to what Miss Henley has to say.

"Okay class, I just wanted to say well done for working so hard this year. So for your last project before graduation. I want you to do a presentation with another class mate on something in History that you are passionate about" Miss Henley rhymes off.

I look over to Olivia (my other friend) and she nodded at me, solidifying that she's my partner for this.

"I will be picking the partners based on your grades" Miss Henley says quickly.

I sink down in my seat, knowing that I'm going to be put with some jock that has no luck of even graduating. Can this day get any worse?

Miss Henley puts everyone in partners, but misses me.

"Um miss?" I raise my hand.

"Yes Stephanie" Miss replies.

"You missed me." I reply

"Ah yes, I've decided someone different for you Stephanie, since you are one of the students that have the highest grades, i thought it wouldn't be fair to put you with someone like Jack over there" She points to a student that's sitting on a D-

I nod my head waiting for her to proceed.

"So, I'm going to partner you up with Zachary, since he also has high grades. I'm wanting to see what two brainiacs can put together" She says all pleased with herself. She knows we don't get along.

"Please miss anyone but him" I looked at Zach and gave him my dirtiest looks.

"My decision is final" She says and looks away.

"Save the dirty looks for the bedroom, darling" Zach says smirking.

I rolled my eyes and opened my textbook. Ugh i spoke too soon. Of course this was the outcome. I know that I'm going to be left to do this project by myself. Yes he's smart I'll give him that. But that's with exams, he's not the best at one working in a team or having people tell him what to do.

*school bell rings*

I slam my phone number on his desk.

"This will be done on my terms, if you don't like it then tough"

"Oh Steph, the floor is all yours, I like a women in charge" he laughs and pockets my number.

"Ugh" I roll my eyes and walk away, grabbing my keys out of my bag. I unlock my car, beasty the beetle. This car is my pride and joy, and she's bright yellow. I load up spotify and play Sabrina Carpenter's newest song 'please please please' while i wait on Allie to come.

10 minutes later she finally gets in the car.

"Sooo, I heard two things today" she starts

"Let me guess, no doubt about me" i roll my eyes.

"Yes, unfortunately" she replies

"Shoot then" i tell her.

"Okay, Peters still going off because you won't kiss him, like seriously, he's started to blame me now. " she starts laughing, " and you're partnered up with Zachary Emerson, you lucky bitch" she says getting more excited.

"No stop Allie, I hate his guts, he's such a tool, and as for Peter, I don't know why I don't want to kiss him, I just don't." I say yawning

Allie laughs, " girl quit you're yawning we've a party to get to" she shouts excitingly

Boy bye, by Ariana Grande starts playing, I higher it up as I drive to my house. Ridding any thoughts about Zach as I can.

I pull up to the empty driveway. Of course my parents aren't in, I open the front door and see a sticky note

On holidays for two weeks with dad
enjoy there's money on the counter

xoxo mum

I crumple up the piece of paper and go up to my room, to see all my clothes already on my floor.

"Girl sit still and let me dress you" Allie says jumping up and down.

Kill me now....
