Prologue

//Dedicated to my lovely penguin chloe_is_a_penguinx  //

First day of hell, or as most calls it – school. As I'm starting my first day of my senior year, I wish I could just sleep, but as my mom always says "Education first". I think it's bullshit. Who wants to use more than 18 years of your life, sitting in front of a desk, to learn useless stuff like, Y=2x+3 or something like that. You're never going to use it in real life. But yeah, back to hell. People who know me would probably say that I shouldn't complain, and that I'm popular and have friends, but no. I don't. At least not many. Yes, I am one of the popular girls, but it's only after I started high school I became popular. Before I started high school, I had braces and glasses and was a complete nerd. I would always do my homework and would always remind our teachers if they forgot our homework. I would sit in the front of the classroom, and was ready to answer any question that was asked. People didn't like me and they started calling me names and throw things at me. I would walk home every day crying, and I would cry myself to sleep every night. I would always say to my mom or dad, that I didn't felt well, but they told me to suck it up and just get my education. Several time I've been thinking, that it was best if I wasn't here. Not just in LA but in life. If I could just go back time to where my mom got pregnant with me, and prevent it, everyone would be happy. I have a dark past that I don't tell anyone about. Not even my parent knows about it. After "it" happened, I started cutting. Nobody really knew, because I hid the cuts to well, and by now most of them are gone, but I have a few scars. After cutting and getting bullied for about 3-4 years, I found this amazing boy on YouTube. I would watch all of his videos of him singing. His voice would calm me down, and I would think of anything else, but the bullying and cutting. Later I saw a video of him with two other boys. I watched their videos too, and they would just make me smile. They were so immature and weird, that it was funny. My parent noticed my sudden mood changes, and thought that I was on drugs. I quickly told them about these boys and how I wanted to meet them. I didn't tell them that the boys saved my life though. Again after watching their videos for a while another boy was with them. They presented him as their new drummer. All that those four boys did made me get hope for that I could do something in the future that would make me happy. My last year in middle school was hell. The bullying didn't stop, so I began thinking, "What if I was different?" I hated myself and didn't like my look at all, so in the summer up to my freshman year I changed. I got a complete makeover. I got my braces of, lenses instead of glasses and a new look. I wouldn't wear big hoodies and sweatpants anymore. Now I wear crop tops, tight fitting tops, skinny jeans, short etc. I started taking care of myself. My acne disappeared and I started wearing a bit of makeup, but not too much. The day I started in high school, I got dirty looks from all the girls and whistles from the boys. I became quite popular, but I never became one of those cake-faced bitches, who tries to ruin everybody's self-confidence. I was and still am an outsider of the populars, but I don't mind. I was never the girly girl, who wears dresses and heels and all that. I like Vans and Nike, beanies and bandanas. And that's also why I don't wear a lot of makeup.

Okay now a little bit about my family and myself. My name is Skylar Rose Beckham. No, David Beckham isn't my dad, he's my uncle. I'm born in England, but shortly after my birth we moved to LA, and I've been here ever since. I'm 17 years old and my birthday is June 2 1998. I live in a mansion in LA with my mom Anne Louise Beckham, my dad Edward Allan Beckham, my older brother Caleb Edward Beckham and my little sister Isabelle Anne Beckham. My mom is a fashion designer, so I don't get where she got "Education first" from, because she isn't using hers, and my dad is a professional soccer player like my uncle. Yeah we are rich. We drive in expensive cars, and only wants the best of the best, and nothing less. Like my dad and uncle, I love soccer. I've played it since I was 4 and I'm still doing it. I'm a striker, but sometimes I play as a midfielder.

But yeah. This story is about how much my life changed by one DM on Twitter.
