To Be Named.

Chapter 1

it's been about a month at Tukes and everythings going well, but Eloise and Keely have been a bit distant, and now that i think about it, the whole friend group is being distant towards me.

Im laying on my ar home when i get a text from Me, Keely and Eloises group chat.

"hey, so we don't want you in the friend group anymore.. all of us feel like you are to touchy and loud. sorry." Eloise texted

Not again.

i can't do this again.

"what, why? what did i do" i respond back.

"we just don't want you in the group. sorry." then i get removed.

***

the next day i get off the bus. i see the group at the usual spot at the fence. i feel sad, i mean who wouldn't.

i just go and sit on the ground next to the building.

I've failed. maybe they still see me as the loud 5th grade girl. they hate me. they hate me. they're probably making fun of me right now.

the bell rings for 1st period and i sit down in my usual spot next to Lily. i just think about what i could've done to be kicked out. "you're too touchy and loud" keeps repeating in my head. over and over.

***

after school i get on the bus and sit down in my normal seat in the back. i like the back, i hear so much funny stuff, it's entertaining.

but this time is different.

i just out in my headphones and turn on my music.

then i hear my name being yelled from behind me.

"wheres Ireland sit?" "where's Ireland?" i take out one of my headphones and perk my head up.

"she's right here!" somebody points to me.

"Ireland Mathew likes you!" somebody yells.

Mathew, 8th grade. tall, toned, brunette, baseball boy.

there's no way he likes me.

i roll my eyes and sit back down.
