The Popularity Project

{24}Fallout

Non-edited

It's been four days since the photoshoot and Ariana, Chantelle and their 'squad' although I'd just call them followers have been harassing me. They call me a liar, attention seeker, poor excuse for a girl and much more. And yes, you heard right. Ariana is now in Chantelle's squad.

They both rule as queen bees in Willow Oak High now. My popularity has decreased massively because of the rumours that Chantelle and Ariana have been spreading round. For example 'You know she's just used you all as friends for the benefit of her popularity.' Or 'You know she's broken half the guys' hearts at this school.'

I know. Jealous much? And since when have I been the heartbreaker?

Oh and if you're gonna ask about the picture me and Samantha Locusts took, Ariana has told the school that it's photoshopped. I told them to check Samantha Locusts profile but her profile was recently hacked so she made a whole new one. I know, crazy.

I've also just done a photoshoot with Kendall Jenner and I've learnt she's a fun, bubbly person. She's invited me to do her next YouTube channel with her where we have to taste different things and guess what's what. She was really nice and we got along very well. I've agreed to meet her again in two weeks time and I'm sooo excited.

At least something good is happening during all this trouble.

"So are you ready for another day of rumours, b*tches and an ex-bestie?" Lucy asked, adding a small sigh at the end.

"Yeah, I just hope that the magazine comes out soon. I can't take all this anymore." I huffed sadly, running a hand through my hair.

Lucy smiled apologetically at me before opening the car door. I opened mine and we walked to the front doors with our arms linked.

"Remember, everyone's here for you." Lucy whispered as we pushed the doors open.

I nodded, I wish.

Kyle hasn't spoken to me during these past horrific days. Not even once.

The whispering erupted as I entered so I scurried to my locker like a little mouse escaping from a trap.

Wow, I just compared myself to a mouse.

I collected my books as Lucy blabbered on about her date coming up with Mark.

"....so I'm not sure what to wear because it's a surprise." She continued, leaning her foot against the lockers.

I stuffed my books in my bag and tugged Lucy towards our first lesson.

Yes! This is the first day where I haven't been harassed by either Ariana or Chantelle in the mornings.

"Hey loser!" Chantelle smirked, stepping in front of me.

I spoke too soon. I was just a few metres from the door. Why? Why does the world hate me so much?

"Hi Chantelle." I greeted through clenched teeth.

"Hmm... So I was wondering if I could just real quickly see your maths book?" She asked in a sickeningly sweet tone, eyeing the blue exercise book.

How could she be so two-faced? She was so nice to me at the beach party but then she goes back to her normal bitchy ways. I wonder what caused her to change her mind about becoming a 'nicer person'.

"Why?" I asked, tugging my Maths book slowly out from the small pile of books in my hands.

She snatched it from me, glancing at the front before smirking at me.
