The Heart's Dream

Chapter 1 The Life of a Nerd

Melody's P.O.V

The alarm clock rang, but I beat it to it. I was already in my school uniform and preparing my things for school.
This was life for me. I would always be early to school and once I get there I start studying. I went downstairs and I saw my mom already preparing my breakfast bag. I know it's really weird to pack my breakfast, but I would always love to be early in school. When my mom saw me, she quickly smiled and offered me my breakfast. She then said Good morning Melody. Hope you have a good day in school. I faked a smile and said Yeah I'll do my best today again. I then grabbed my breakfast and headed to school.

Cinammon High School

I was already at my classroom. I stood in front of my classroom door and glanced at my watch. 6:03 was the time, but I was worried that he
might already be here. I sighed and opened the door. I looked around and he wasn't here. I smiled and went to my seat. Then a voice very familiar to me said You think that you came here first. Ha think again. I looked around and saw him. My worst nightmare. Mr. Scott Anderson. He used to be the smartest student in the school and is popular with the girls here. But now that I'm here he's number 2. Then my tummy started to grumble. Scott then laughed and said Don't tell me you didn't eat your breakfast again. You always eat your breakfast in school. I then got a little angry and said with my sweetest voice Well I wanted to study while eating, besides it's much more comfortable to eat in school than at home. He then said well may I join you then? I rolled my eyes, but he took it as a yes since he sat next to me and watched my every move. I hope this will end soon since it was a little bit creepy.

It was already 6:40 and students are already going inside the classroom. The girls who saw me and Scott hanging out together threw death glares at me telling me to stay away from him. As usual I ignored them, besides he asked me. This always happens to me everyday. Everytime I get high scores, everyone would just shot me death glares. They missed Scott being #1. I don't care about what other people say to me. It's in my nature to study at home and in school. When Scott noticed the girls death glares at me, he stood up and said something to the girls I couldn't hear. After he was done, the girls started to go back to their seats.

I think he was threathining them since I saw Scott's eyes with anger. I really didn't mind, but why would he do this kind of thing everytime someone bullies or threatens me? He then looked at me and smiled. He walked towards me and said Hey you okay? I nodded and said look I really don't need some bodyguard to look after me. He then laughed a bit and said The reason why I'm protecting you is because I'm the only one who can tease you. I then got angry and tried to hide it by looking away. I then said Ha I think today will be again the day where I will tease you once more on the tests. I didn't look at him, but I could tell he was smirking. He then said Fine you got me. I'll give you all the day where you could tease me, but be warned I have a maximum defense on my hand. I almost forgot that the defense he was talking about are the girls who admire him. Everytime I would tease him, those girls would make a shield to protect him.

This is what my life would always be everyday in school. Girls will tease me. Everyone ignores me since I always get good scores and everyone thinks that me and Scott are friends. Who would be friends with a guy like him? Not me. He's not even the type of guy I like. Right now I don't want to fall in love with a guy. I hate guys. First of all they try to woo you and make you their girlfriend. Things go steady until he starts to cheat on you for some other girl. Then when you are already forgot about him, he comes crying back to you and asking for forgiveness. But it all starts over again. Right now my true love is studying. I don't want my heart to be broken again. My dad was the only guy I loved. Sadly he died when I was still 6 years old. But that's not the reason why my heart was broken before. It has something to do when I was still a 1st year, but I don't want to talk about it yet. This is the life of a nerd like me.
