True Friend or True Love?

True friend or True love?

I did not like the high school that I went to as everyone bullied me for the way that I dressed, my parents were not very rich and could not afford all the designer brands. I believed that I would never find a true friend and that I would be bullied through out my school years I had 3 years left at school and didn’t want to stay there any longer. So my parents decided to safe up so that they could send me to a boarding school as I had always wanted to go to a boarding school.

After a few months of saving up they finally got the money to send me to boarding school and were so happy because their daughter would finally get the education she had craved for.

A week later I was finally at the boarding school she was sharing a room with 2 girls who also got sent to boarding school because they got bullied. They were very smart just like me. The 2 girls named Tarnia and Rachel they were so kind to me. I believed that they could become very good friends but was not sure because she had only just met them.

A day later it was my first day at school and Tarnia and Rachel showed me where to go for each lesson. I knew straight away which were the popular people and the unpopular people because the cool kids they were called never listened in class but the nerds always listened in class. I did not know if I was a nerd or not but I knew that I would never be a cool kid because I wanted to do well at school.

One day I was walking down the corridor with my head dangling down and I was not looking where I was going and bumped it to this guy. We both ended up dropping our stuff. I said “I’m so sorry”. The unknown boy said “No need to apologize it was my fault” Then I heard a Girl running down the corridor saying “Jack, Jack are you ok” The boy answered back and said “Yes I am fine” the girl came up to him ad kissed him and glared at me; when Jack went the girl came up to me and whispered “You better watch your back because believe me you wont get far in this school” and walked away I looked back and realised that the unknown girl was one of the cool kids.

I went back to my dorm very upset. Tarnia and Rachel asked me what was up. I said “This is just like my old school I don’t belong here or anywhere!” Rachel hugged me until I finally stopped crying and said “don’t listen to them they should grow up!”

The next day I was in a class with Jack and Jacks girl friend. Their teacher Mrs Dawson said “I am putting you in pairs Jack your with Alice and Stacey (Jacks girl friend) your with Malcom and Katie your with Ben” I was fine with that because I were not paired up with Jack or Stacey. For the first time I met my partner Ben I was so happy because Ben was so nice and fit. Everyone wanted to go out with him and said that I was lucky but Katie did not care I just wanted to get on with the project. When Ben knocked on my dorm door Tarnia was so excited because It would have been the first time she had ever spoken to him. Ben bought over a friend which was fine with me.

Every day me and Ben would sit together doing their work. Stacey got very jealous because Ben was her ex boy friend but like I cared all I wanted to do was work on our project. One day Ben said “you know you are pretty cool.”  I felt flattered and said “thanks so are you” we both laughed and laughed until Stacey came over and said “ I can here you from my dorm could you be a bit more quite” Ben and I looked at each other and looked sorry but when Stacey left we bursted out with laughter. Ben said “why have I never seen you around before” I laughed “I have only just moved here” we both then smiled at each other and gazed into each others eyes and moved closer and closer but then a faded voice was shouting which cut us off. It was no big surprise who it was because she came running down shouting “Ben have you seen Jack” I was so sad as it would have been her first kiss.

 The day after Ben went round to my dorm to finish off the work. Ben and I went and sat on the beach. Ben came in to me and kissed me. I was so surprised. Stacey came down in her bikini. She was trying to show off. I left while Ben and Stacey were talking.

The next day was when the project was due in Ben sat next to me and held my hand Ben was hoping that he had passed. I did not know if Ben was in love with me or just kissed me because he wanted to pass.

After class Jack went over to speak to me and said “you know you picked the worst boy ever he has a record for cheating.”  I just smiled and said “you can not say very much I bet your girl friend cheats a lot to” Jack glared a me and walked way. Ben came out of the room with out saying a word to me. That is when I knew he was not in love with me.

The next lesson was History with Mr. Rooney and he ended up setting a project and put them into groups. I hoped that I would not be put with Jack and luckily wasn’t but to my dismay I was put with Stacey. Stacey just walked in to my dorm and said 15 words which were “You should know I never do work so you best get to it hadn’t you?”

The next day Jack came up to me and said “Listen I am sorry about yesterday I was in a bad mood can we at least be friends?” I thought is a cool kid asking me to be their friend? I finally answered him and said “Yes sure what ever” we then shook hands. Finally I was a cool kid she knew what her category was and it was a cool kid. I went back to my dorm so happy.

A few months later me and Jack became pretty close and as usual Stacey was jealous. But then one day I heard news going around the school that Jack had proposed to Stacey. Then I saw Stacey come around the corner showing her ring. In lessons all the teachers congratulated her. So that day no one learnt anything because of the big announcement. I saw Jack and whispered “congrats” and walked away but Jack ran after me and saw the tears running down my cheek and wiped them off. Stacey yelled “Where is my Fiancée?” I turned my head and saw Stacey. I then  walked away.

I went back to my dorm Rachel was their, she looked upset. So I ran up to her and threw my arms around her. Rachel whispered “Listen I think I am in love with someone but that person does not love me but calls me mean names.” She cried and cried until I finally asked her who it was Rachel scaredly said “I don’t want you to be mad but I am in love with Ben” Rachel began to stare into my eyes and then she watched me  leave the room.

The next day I went back to my dorm and Tarnia was sitting on Rachel’s bed holding her teddy. When I walked in and asked Tarnia “What is the matter” then a mumble came from the bed “its Rachel she jumped off a bridge and died because she hit the water so hard and she has a heart problem!” Then I burst out in tears. I knew it was my fault.

The next day I went to lessons and people asked me why my eyes were so red. I would not say I did not speak to anyone through out that day because I was so upset. Then I heard someone knock on my door, it was Jack and Stacey. I thought what’s she doing here then looked at her bag and realised that she was here to collect the work that they had been set. But then Stacey left. It was just me and Jack in the dorm. Jack sat next to me and hugged me. Then I looked up and saw his big brown eyes staring at her. Jack gazed in to her eyes, we both got closer and closer until our noses touched then Jack kissed me. Then I kissed him back then someone knocked on the door. It was a teacher asking me to help with Rachel’s funeral. At that moment Jack left.

It was the summer holidays and my mum and dad came to collect me, but they had big news for me. I was so sad and left the school with a very sad face. But no one knew why….

I returned to school after the summer holidays but was not very happy and people could tell. So after 1st lesson Tarnia asked me what the matter was but there was no answer. I didn't talk for at least a week and no one knew why. Tarnia went up me and begged me to tell her. But I did not say a word. Tarnia gave up and left. 

A month later I came face to face with Ben again and he wanted me back. I coud not resist but to say yes. If I can get the hottest guy in the whole school than everyone would want to be friends with me which would make me the popular kid. On that night Tarnia asked me if I wanted to watch a film with her but I said no because I had plans with Ben. But I did not realise that Tarnia had been there the whole time. I forgot about Tarnia and Rachel and went off with the popular kids and left Tarnia all by herself.with no one to comfort her.

2 Months later I went running to Tarnia because I was being forced in to marriage!
