Stranger

My life

I guess I should introduce myself before I tell you anything, right? Well, my name is Megan Wills and I'm 17. I'm your average nerd. I get all A's, I have glasses but wear contacts, and I guess I'm not very fashionable. I actually have a fashion sense but I can't get the clothes I want. I get old hand-me-downs from my cousins, I don't really mind. I am not a very needy person, I am content with what I have but if I had money, I would buy nice things.

I have nice, long dark brown hair and bright turquoise eyes. I'm only 5'1 and I get called names for it, like 'munchkin' and 'midget'. I get bullied on a daily and you just get use to it after a while.

Lets take it all the way back to when I was born. My parents were the 'IT' couple in high school. You know, the couple everyone wanted to be. The cliché 'blonde hottie' and 'hot football captain'. My mother was the cheer captain, blonde, thin, the girl every high school girl wanted to be and every guy wanted.

My father was your typical high school football captain, tall, toned, and nice dark hair, I guess that's where my hair came from, the guy every high school guy wanted to be and every girl wanted.

He treated my mother like a princess and he made sure everyone knew she was his. He would not hesitate to take someone down if he thought they were a threat to him. They had their up and downs but they didn't let that get to them. My mother was the nicest person you'd ever meet, from what I remember.

I want to have love like theirs. They wouldn't let anyone between them. They loved each other from the inside out, that's something I admire dearly about them. After high school they went to college together. My mom studied to become a teacher. She loved kids so much she wanted to do something involving them. My father studied to become a P.E. teacher, so he could be teaching sports, something he loved. It's crazy how they both wanted to become some form of teacher.

After they both finally graduated, they wanted to get married. They had an outside wedding. It looked beautiful from pictures I have seen. After being married for two years, I was born. They cherished me with everything they had. They bought me everything possible and played with me. They only wanted me to be happy and I was. I was the happiest I would ever be. I wish I could go back and cherish it more than I had because it all ended too soon.

My parents were still a very happy couple and went out with friends and had fun. We had picnics with them and went places together. We spent a lot of time with one family. The Chadwick's. They had a boy my age named Drew and he was my best friend. We did everything together, no matter what. Then one day, when we were about 9, their family stopped coming over and I never understood why.

I would always ask my mom why they stopped coming but she made up an excuse every time. I would try talking to Drew at school and one day he snapped on me and I stopped trying. I didn't care at the moment because I thought he was just having a bad day and I gave him his space.

He started coming to school with marks on him but he told everyone he fell and they believed it. I never did and I tried telling my parents but they did nothing. I still tried talking to him but he would only push me away. Once I got into Middle School he started getting into the group of badasses.

Everyone in the group was older, mostly in High School and I never understood why he hung out with them. They were bad people and Drew was such an amazing person, he didn't deserve to be put down because of the image he has made for himself. I miss him so much, I still tried talking to him. One day he did something I would never forget about.

-Flashback-

I wake up like any other day, not thinking it would be the worst day of my life. I pick out my outfit for the day, which is my normal jeans, a white tee, and a pair of white Vans. I love my Vans very much. After I got everything, I went to go take a shower. I brushed my teeth before I did anything and then brushed my tangled mess of hair. I stripped from all my clothes and hop in the shower.
