*Aria's POV*

This morning was so bad. It's like the Gods are against me. I'm sitting in the principals office. For the first time in ever. It was all that little git's fault. Keith. Honestly, I have never hated anyone more. He got me into a food fight and now I am stuck here. The last place I want to be.

So basically this is how my day went..

When I woke up, actually the reason I woke up was because Nick thought it would be amusing to spill a glass of cold water on me to wake me up. Douchebag. As soon as I opened my eyes, he practically ran out of my room while I screamed obscenities at him. I hate him. I had a shower and put on a pair of ripped skinny jeans, a white t shirt that said ' Nothing To Wear' and my converse. I quickly tied my hair up in a messy bun. Yeah I know, I dress too simply. Blah Blah.

As soon I walked a few steps, i tripped over my own laces. I was back to the floor. My homie. How low could my social skills get ?When I got up, I realised that my shoes were torn too. This could not be happening. They were my favourite converse. Cue sad face. I scanned my closet for another pair of shoes and settled for a pair of grey Vans.

I took my phone and backpack and left the house, saying a bye to my parents and scowling at my brother as I left. He was such a piss off. I waited for Hayley to come and pick me up. I didn't have to wait too long and within a few minutes, I saw her pulling up in front of my house. As soon as I sat in the car, she gaped at me.

"Um, what are you wearing ?", she asked, with a shocked face.

I looked at my clothes and said, "Clothes?"

"You are a fashion disaster to be honest"

" Hey its not my fault you like dressing up and acting like a girl"

" Ugh, just wear the leather jacket that's at the back over your t shirt''

"Why but''

" Just do it''

" You suck '', I said as I took the black leather jacket and wore it over my t shirt as Hayley drove to school.

" Oh and let your hair loose. '', she said.

"No!'', I whined like a small baby. I hated it when my hair was let loose. It ended up in my face.

"Pweeesh?'', Hayley said in her baby voice.

I don't even know why I listen to her, I thought as I let my hair loose and it fell down my shoulders, contrasting the black leather jacket with a brown.We reached the school and she parked in her spot. I noticed Taylor walking towards the car and looked at Hayley with a sigh.

Why me ?

" Hey, you were the one who said yes'', she said with a small smile as though reading my mind. " Now go out there and put up a show for those jealous bitches", she said with a smirk.

Taylor knocked at the car window with a smile on his face. I faked a smile and opened the door. As soon as I shut the door behind me, he engulfed me into a hug, wrapping his arms around my waist and lifting me slightly. I hugged him back as he buried his face in my neck, his warm breath on my neck.

When he let go, I realised that practically everyone was staring at us. Its been two days. They should've gotten used to us by now. Not my fault they were so slow. A bit too slow, to be honest. Taylor took my hand in his and walked towards the school, talking about something, but I didn't bother paying much attention and kept muttering 'Aha'. I felt uncomfortable with my hand in his and tried to take my hand back, but his grip was like steel. So all my attempts typically failed. I don't think he even realised what I was trying to do. We walked down the corridors of our school, his arm now around my waist as though showing everyone that I was his. Men and their ways of showing dominance. We stopped at my locker and I opened it, taking the books I need. Hayley was already at her locker, which was right next to mine. Taylor being around me because it meant we couldn't talk about anything obviously bothered her. Specifically she couldn't talk to me about Keith. Which, she obviously wanted to do.
