" I love this book, look at it." I glance at the cover and try to pronounce the title. It was a silver cover with a drawing of two girls. One was obese and another very thin and boney. They looked slightly different as if they were drawings. The two characters on the cover are red and on the bottom right hand corner expressed the shadows of the two females, one very big shadow and one tall shadow. The title read: Looks by Madeleine George.

I smile at him and take the book from his hands.

" This is your favorite story?" He grins that toothy grin and moves closer. All the other students in our Kindergarten class are too busy to notice us. Every since we became friends I got more and more interested in the books he reads. Our teacher would always give us stickers for how many new books we could read.

" Wow this is amazing can I read it," He gives me a grin and a side hug. I feel my heart pounding, this must be the power of friendship. I give him a small hug in return.

" absolutely you r my best friend ever we should read at my house soon! I love this book because it taught me that everyone comes in different shapes and sizes and it doesn't matter what you look like." I nod and start skimming the first page.

Suddenly a grunt of laughter disturbed us and I almost squirm on the colorful rug as Bryce comes towards us.

He snickers in our faces and takes the book out of my hands.

" This is filth, reading is for losers and your always going to be such a boring plain girl!" He tosses it to the side and I well up with tears. My friend gets up and gives him a mean face.

" How dare you say that , books are important for learning and they have nice stories. You're a big fat meanie!!" He points a finger at Bryce and I shout as they both wrestle each other to the ground.

Meghan"s POV

I wake up and groan in frustration. Not this again.

The warmth of the day starting hits my face really fast that I don't' want to get up, just stay in the covers of my bed hidden.

Today is the day that I will have to face Jade's constant questioning, not to mention face Angie if I ever see her. OH why!!

Its that same dream again. It's seven o'clock in the morning and I feel my eyes open up slightly and take in the light of the open curtains. I scratch my head and get up slowly. It's strange really, seeing that Blake likes to read. It's not even inappropriate magazines it was a novel a regular fictional novel. The sight of his lips reading with such concentration fill my head and I try to shake it off.

It's like every time I picture that I get this fuzzy feeling in my stomach and suddenly I dream of myself when I was in Kindergarten. That boy , whoever he was loved to read so much and always hugged me when I would ask for him to let me read one of his favorites.
