falling for the Badboy

Chapter twenty nine

             ~Michealas POV~

I love parties, I love to dress up and look good. They make me feel like I'm part of something. I'm trying to be away from Bev because she's in a shitty mood. Christian drove some girl home blablabla. Of course he did, that's Christian Taylor for you. He's a gorgeous guy, he's good at everything he does and he knows that.

Beverly and Christian have known each other since they were kids. I can tell he doesn't like her but she's too stubborn to listen. I mean they've kissed and probably done more than just kissing, and Christian doesn't do that with many girls so she thinks she's the one.

I'm Beverly in some way......

What I mean is, if she were to go to another school I'd probably make an advance on him. To be fair, who wouldn't? Look Christian is stuck up and everything bad boy but he's never been that with me which makes me believe he likes me—slightly—but he's too cought up with Bev that he doesn't realise it.

Beverly is pretty, blonde hair —which she dyed brown at some point for God knows why—cute eyes, amazing body......she's beautiful. I'm pretty too, and so is K. Being blonde is probably just the beauty standard around here but I'm dark haired. I have jet black hair and I always believed it wasn't good enough until everyone online loved me for it, now I flaunt it. I think it goes well with my blue eyes.  My eyes are what's the beauty standard so I guess that's one of the reasons why I fit in. I workout and eat clean so of course I look good and I know Beverly knows that otherwise she'd be stepping on me like she does on everyone else.

There's alot of good looking people at my school to be honest, Raven, also dark haired and her brother who never talks to anyone. He and Christian are so alike yet different. Christian's radiant energy pulls you to him, he's magnetic. Tyler is rather repulsive, he gives off depressed vibes if you ask me.

The triplets and their green eyes, let me just say, this school is known for its gorgeous looking yet smart students. It's like you wouldn't be accepted in if you were ugly, unless of course you're rich or smart.

Everything was always like this until her.

Victoria is "my sister" lol, I remember the first time I met her, my jaw dropped and I dropped my barbie doll along with it. We were young and my dad had married her mom, my mom. She was staying with her dad and grandparents at the time. She got out of the car with no excitement at all, she never liked to be around new people.

I made it my mission to make her like me, and she did. We played together but all the time I wished my dolls looked like her. I knew I was pretty, my mom and my new mom always told me that. But seeing Victoria made me doubt that. To make matters worse, she didn't even make her personality around her looks like I did, it's like she didn't even know she makes people's jaws drop.

Her hair is brown, a rich chocolate type of brown like the one Bev dyed her hair with. If Victoria was here at the time I'd have said she was trying to be her but they had never met before so I thought she was probably trying to look like me. Victoria has brown eyes, I think they are more Hazel but I'm not very good with eye colours. Some people tell me my eyes are a blend of green and blue but all I see is blue. Victoria doesn't fit the beauty standard I've grown to learn but she's the prettiest girl I've ever met. She looks just like mom but better,like mom's genes in a more polished version. Don't get me wrong, everyone knows mom is hot, they just haven't met her offsprings. I wish I was her real daughter. She treats me really good, I can never complain, she ain't like those evil step moms, she brings out the best in me but I know that deep down she knows I can never be better than her little goddess.

Mom's name adds popularity and fame to everything. I have more followers than any girl at this school because of her, and I know Beverly wishes she'd be me sometimes. The only girl I know with more followers than me is K and that's fair enough because she's prettier than Bev and I combined. Thank God she transferred. But I know that would change the minute  Victoria showed her nonchalant pretty face to the world.

Beverly hates Victoria and I know why. She's everything she'd ever want to be. She's jealous of her but to be fair, I am too. Just that I don't hate her, I envy her. She gets the attention of everyone without even meaning to. My dad, my very own dad loves her, he doesn't say it but I see it. Her father was the best, I remember visiting her place because we were close back then and they all treated her like a little princess that she is and I was so jealous. Everyone's smile towards her was always filled with so much warmth like she's something they've never seen before.

And I see the same look in Christian's eyes. Those boys are good at bro code but I see the same look in their eyes even though they know Christian looks at her like that. But what gets it all twisted is this one friend they have that never likes anyone. Tyler Scott. He also has that look when it comes to her but it's like he's at war with himself so he comes out as rude towards her.

I see it in them because it's the same look I have but unlike my envious thoughts, theirs are either lustful or dreamy.

I was so deep in thought I forgot I'm at a party. It's like the music just blured out because of Victoria. The reason I'm back to the party is because I hear Christian's voice. I look back and indeed he's here, and he's saying hi to me. Me!

I try not to show the surprise and excitement in my voice. He's probably looking for Beverly or his friends. He never just talks to me.

"Hi Christian."

"You good?"

"Yeah, wassup?"

"Nothing really, just anxious about tomorrow."

He's lying, he's never anxious and the party being hosted at my place tomorrow isn't anything he's never been to. But him lying means he just wants to talk to me. Cute.

"Yeah, me too, I never really know what to wear you know."

"But you always end up looking great. So I believe you'll look good tomorrow as well."

See? He's never a stuck up with me.

"Yeah, I guess. I hear some of your friend's families will be in attendance."

"Oh yeah. Alex and Tyler will be  there. But so will your friend."

Ohh Beverly! She'll be so disappointed to find out that the girl she hates so much is the daughter of the woman she adores and that the only thing she used to bully her for isn't even true. Scholarship girl. She'll be sick but luckily she's welcome to use my bedroom's suite to release it all.

"Oh yeah, she's excited."

Damn I'm such an opp.

Christian and I talk about tomorrow. The conversation was all good until Beverly showed up.

"Chris I've been looking for you, why do you always do this to me huh?"

She has an animated voice, with an Australian accent. Her voice is high pitched in a not so bad way but it's sometimes very annoying, like right now.

I leave them to it because she looked at me like I just betrayed her by talking to "her man" and not keeping "girl code". Beverly and delulu have the same meaning.
