i am not pretty

3

Ella usually wakes up around 6:00 and has a shower. This morning she was up and ready by 7 which meant she could walk to school. 

"Mom. I'm going"  Ella said walking towards the door. Today she was dressed in black jeans, a white tee and a knitted cardigan. She added a burgundy scarf and black booties. It looked rather cute.

"Okay. I'll pick you up tonight and we'll go straight to the dance studio for your photos"  Mrs.Jane shouted back.

"Hi Ella" Jett said who was standing at the gate.

"Hi. Were you waiting for me?" Ella giggled.

"Maybe" Jett giggled back. They both walked together to their lockers. They had Double Maths first.

At lunch, Jett and Ella stayed together. 

"Who do you normally hang out with?" Jett asked Ella.

"Me, Myself and I" She said back.

"Really?"

"Yep. Hey, uh thanks by the way" Ella said.

"For what?" Jett asked confused.

"At the studio last night. Sorry i left. I just don't like being the center of attention"  Jett smiled and said once again,

"Don't be sorry"  

"Do you want me to introduce you to some of the guys?" Ella asked Jett. He nodded and followed her over.

"Mark, Justin. This is Jett" Ella called out. The boys came running over to Ella and Justin put his arm around her.

"Jett, this is Justin, and that's Mark." Ella smiled. You could tell Jett was jealous, as if he liked Ella. I think he thought Ella and Justin were a thing, they're not.

"Anyway, we got to go. See you later" Ella said and they walked back the direction they came.

"Are you and Justin... a uh-" Jett started.

"No, uh we just get along really well"  Ella answered truthfully. It's true they get along super well, but they never hang out. They have been neighbors since they were young kids. 

"Why don't you hang out with him?" Jett asked.

"Because I've got you" Ella smiled. I think she likes this Jett guy. Ella has never had a boyfriend and now that i think about it, i don't think she has ever had a crush. Well a serious one anyway.

"Ella. Can i maybe get your number? and  could call you?" Jett asked. You could her how shy he was.

"Yeah. Here" Jett passed Ella his phone and she put in her number. He called her right away so she could save his number. 

"Thanks. Will you be at the studio tonight?" Jett asked.

"Yeah i will actually. Mom signed me up to model or some crap" Ella answered.

"Oh okay, but i thought you hated it?" 

"I do, but this is the last time i'll be doing it. I have to go, ill see you at the studio?" 

"Yeah. See you at the studio" Jett said and walked away from Ella.

"Ella turn your head to the right more" Some man was shouting at her.

"Your other right Ella" Her mom told her. Ella still gets confused but doesn't everyone.

Ella was dressed in a skin toned Leotard. She had her hair out and all over her face. She posed a few times and then got changed. She put o tight black dance shorts, a white crop tee and her pink point shoes with leg warmers. This time she did her dance and they took action shots.
