"Allison!"Screamed my lovely mother."Get up!It's time for school!"I could already picture her in her usual pink robe that's been washed so many times it looks see through. "Alright,I'm getting up!"I screamed back.I was still in bed ,but just the thought of going to school made my stomach turn side to side,and up and down.I wasn't popular ,but I wasn't a total nobody either.There's either two categories:Popular and Nobody.For the people in the middle they were just people.I knew every ones' names but I was sure half of them had never seen me in their too important lives.
I was walking outside Jackson High School of the smallish town Millers.You could find it on a map but nobody would bother to even LOOK for it on a map.The school was ruined down and the paint had scraped off years ago.The metal bars of the stairs were rusty and the pavement on the sidewalk was cracked.All the trees died when the coldest(and worst)cold front ever hit Millers.It was about nine years ago ,but after that everything just stopped growing.Not only the trees but the people too.People stopped visiting like relatives or maybe just tourists.The Sun hardly showed it glowing,bright,yellow rays anymore so everyone was pale from lack of vitamin D.The air was always foggy and kinda hard to breathe in.But when you've lived in Millers your whole life you learn to live with it.
I opened the doors and tried hard not to look from side to side.I always had a problem with people.I always felt like people were staring at me or I had to act more...normal.I had always had this problem ever since I learned how to talk and walk.I could talk to people but just too many freaked me out.I had never admitted it to anybody and I never would.Not even my mother who seemed to crunched up by her own bothered life.My dad didn't live with us so my mom went kinda crazy after some big fight(which caused him to leave).Anyways,back to school.I was walking ,trying to get to my first class ,but something blocked my way. I fell back slightly as my eyes came back into focus."I'm Sorry!"Said some girl.I looked up and saw in front of me possibly the most prettiest girl ever in Jackson High.She had amazingly silky looking blond hair that curled at the tips and big,sparkly,blue eyes that didn't look real;like from a fairytale."Oh...um it's alright."I moved around her before a smile could even spread on her blemish-free face.I walked fast holding my books close to my chest
I opened the door to my home room and walked silently to my desk.I put my books on the floor and looked around.I was usually first in class ,but today I seemed to be last.Mostly all the seats were partly filled and everyone looked sleepy and annoyed.I found some desks in the back and decided to sit there.It's better to be not seen and not heard on the first day of school.At least I d-"Is this Mrs.Asher's class?"Everyone turned around to look at the first person to actually speak.I turned too and saw the same girl I had bumped into in the hallway.She smiled an angelic one that could steal any guy's heart.I felt jealous ,but I had no idea why.Mrs.Asher stared at her for a few seconds(probably in shock) then said confusingly ,"Yes.You must be Angela Emshaw,please take a seat."Even her name had the word "Angel" in it.Angela smiled and looked around.Her eyes landed on my desk and she smiled brighter.She waved as if we were old friends and her eyes sparkled as if to say ,"I can't believe your here!"Everyone turned to stare at me.Their faces said it all ,"Is she kidding?How could Alli what-ever know this girl?!"She sat down and I could feel my face brighten.I could feel their eyes throwing daggers at me.
I looked to my left and and sighed.Of course,an empty desk just happened to appear right next to me.I turned the other way trying to tune out the "clack,clack" noises her heels made.They stopped and then I felt a soft,gentle,tap on my arm.I turned and put on a fake smile.
"Hi I'm Angela.What's your name?"She held out her hand as if I would shake it.When I didn't she happily put her hand back in place ,but continued to talk as she sat down.
