This Is Me.

"She slowly places the flowers into the vase that sits in the middle of the kicthen table.

'They're beautiful,' she thinks to herself.

She reaches out and softly strokes the crusty petals. Just two ten minutes ago she was surprised by a mail man with them. The man wore a fake smile as he handed me the dead roses. No one can really blame him. He doesn't understand. He doesn't know. No one left a note or anything, but she knew where they are from.

No one left a message or anyway to tell that poor man that those were from her dead mother."

Beth types away, letting all of her thoughts flow onto the screen. With her stories now very popular, she has to keep up with the demand for her words. Most people would become annoyed and quit, but not Beth.

This was her world, this was her life away from her other life.

Her life was full of pain, rejection, and sorrow. But this life, she was in control. She could make it perfect. The only catch..... No one knows it is her. It isn't her face that was getting all the credit for her work. It is the face of some prettier girl she found on the Internet. It was not Beth Kelly who was getting the fame.

It was Katlyin Johnson that everyone praised. She is who everyone loved.

Beth was fine with this double life she was leading.

Beth Kelly during the day. Beth went to school, had no one, was ignored, bullied, listened to people talking about the amazing writing they found by a beautiful girl, watched as the guys drool over "Katlyin's" pictures, etc. But then she would come home and bam.

She is now Katlyin Johnson. The beautiful writer that everyone loved. Katlyin had friends, she had boys wanting to talk to her, she had an amzing fan base that supported her. She was perfect.

Sometimes Beth would wish for Katlyin life.

That always left her thinking. She has her life. She is Katlyin. But no one knows it.

What if everyone knew? she'd ask herself.

They'd probably leave and never look back.

No one cares unless you're pretty or dead

That's just the way things are.....

Author's Note:

This is a short preview of a new story that I will be writing. It will not be in the third person like this. It will be from the point of view of Beth Kelly. This story is about a girl who hates her life, so she made a new one. A whole different world opened up for her when the stories became more popular. She felt some sort of support and love from her fans. But she wants that life all the time. What if everyone knew? She battles with this thought often but always ends with the same thought..... Everyone would leave. But what if someone figures it out on their own? How far is Beth willing to go to get Katlyin's life? Read on and find out.
