When The Rain Pours Down (Discontinued)

Chapter One: Me, The Outcast.

They all chat idly, as if there isn't a single thing to worry about. For most of them, there most likely isn't. Half the school is made of spoiled brats with rich parents (the popular half). Their parents pay for everything they could ever wanted. Hoverboard? Sure. Front row seats to a Taylor Swift concert and  VIP passes? Of course! Anything they wanted, they got it. The first spots on the sports teams. Popularity. Their homework done for them. You name it.

That half would end up living off their parents money or marry another rich person they went to this very damned high school.

The other half is the good side. That side is made up of students with a social life, good grades, a talent that could get them somewhere, and everything in between. That half is the side that deserved to be in the higher social classes, most of them are actual decent human beings.

Of course, I can't forget the most important part of the school. Students who don't fit into either half. I guess it was more like 'student', because that one person happened to be me.

Me, Heather Allen, the outcast. The girl who didn't pay much attention to anyone else. Everyone else gladly returned the favor.

My only goal was to make it through school, and get away from this hell I've had to call my home for pretty much my entire life. Which, if you're wondering, has almost been an entire 18 years.

Why was I at the bottom, not fitting in anywhere? I never really talked to many people. I used to be fairly popular, back in maybe 5th or 6th grade? Some stuff happened in 7th grade. Some.. family issues, and long story short, I now have major trust issues. So there's that. I'm also lost in my own little world 70% of my time, so it's pretty hard to actually get my attention for longer than 2 minutes. And that's after you spend 5 trying to get my attention by waving a hand in front of my face.

Really, the only friend I have is Paisley Logan. She came in our freshman year of highschool, which means she didn't know a single thing about the 7th grade drama. Her parents are actually fairly wealthy, but she's not a snotty stuck up bitch like half the other girls. Her mom is really nice and raised Paisley and her brother, Rayner, like someone with almost no money would act. Rayner hates his name. He's kinda weird though, but he's only, like 14, and is figuring out some identity stuff. I don't know.

Anyways, Paisley came to the school and instantly was sticking with the popular people. She was in maybe 3-4 of my classes and for some reason thought I would be an interesting person.  So after school one day, she trots up alongside me after all her friends are at their houses. Of course, I was kind of annoyed by her. But I was annoyed by anyone who made eye contact with me back then. She says something cliche, like "I like your jacket, it's cute," or "The weather's been pretty nice recently, especially for fall," or some other boring comment. It was her attempt. 

I just mumbled something, 'yeah' or 'I guess'. We did that for like 15 minutes.

I have no clue why, but she still wanted to be my friend. Paisley was really determined, so that meant literally no one could stop her. So yeah, now here we are today, 3 years later. Paisley is one of the only people I can trust.

Remember how I mentioned that I get lost in my thoughts? Yeah, that's what is happening right now.

I blinked, and looked over to the door.  Mr. Harrison (the school's secretary) was stood at the door.

"Excuse me for interrupting Mr. Sanders, but we have two new students joining this class." He walked into the door and two boys walked closely behind him, like dogs on a leash. Normally I was fine with new students, but these two boys were part of the reason I have trust issues. The asshole pair of twins that caused everyone to whisper and laugh as I walked by.

I knew those smug little faces the moment I saw them. The pair of twins that stood only (give-or-take a few) 15 steps away were Aiden and Trenton Gray.

A/N: Ugh, this should have been up wayyy earlier. I am so sorry guys! Lost the draft for this chapter and couldn't type it up :C

Anyways!

Thank you all for reading this! This first chapter is obviously significantly different and much better than the original version. That version sucked.

Thank you all for reading! I promise I will actually try and update more than once every other month.

Stay tuned for the next chapter!
