A/N so I've noticed that I have soooo many reads on this one chapter and after that, nothing.
Idk, it's okay if you don't. Well if you decide to read on after this chapter, have fun with one hell of a weird ride.
Marnie
BZZZZZZ!!
The buzzer went off and we scored another point. But it wasn't enough, the game was only tied.
Of course me, Marnie Cooper, was the mascot for Alvin High School. Which was an alligator.
Doing my moves for the crowd in the sweaty, stinky costume, to get the them pumped, wasn't something I loved doing. I could see Rachel Anderson ,the most popular girl in school, giving me glares from time to time.
I never understood why she always hated me. But I guess it's just one of those things girls do. Ugh, horomones. Or maybe it's "that time of the month" every month.
As the player of our team was about to score Rachel desides to kick me, hiding it as one of her cheerleader moves, and i fall into our player making our team lose.
'At least they cant see my face'
But to my luck, the head to the costume came off revealing my face. Everyone started booing and to my disappointment apparently 'no one' saw what Rachel did.
I started to tear up while the other team cheered for their victory and the crowd started to leave the court.
Laying on the ground I didn't know how my life could get any worse.
Luckily he came. I know you're wondering who 'He' is and its Jack Tiller. Only one of the hottest guys in school. With his dark, but soft green eyes and light brown hair with some blonde highlights that framed his face and jaw line perfectly. His pink soft lips, and the way he flips his hair which makes me fan girl everytime. Like oh my gosh he's perfect!!
He stretched out his hand toward me and i gladly took it. He pulled me up quickly but gently and me being clumsy fell right into his arms.
He chuckled lightly and grabbed my waist to put me up straight. We were so close i couldve almost kissed him but how could he fall for me.
I felt my cheeks burning and i looked down with a big smile on my face.
"Thanks," I mummled and luckily he heard it. I didn't want to say it again.
"Your welcome." he replied with a slight laugh in his voice. I could tell he had a smirk dancing on his lips.
I realized he was still holding me by my waist and it had gotten really awkward. I looked up at him to see he was just staring at me. I wish i could of just stared into his eyes forever but I knew I to go so I finally broke the silence.
"Um, well, i have to go."
"Oh yeah, sorry." He said noticing the awkwardness. He let go of me and i started walking toward the double red doors with my cheeks burning red.
I hope he didn't notice.
"Bye," he said to my surprise.
"See ya," I turned and waved.
I walked off towards the girls locker room thinking about Jack the whole way. I walked in towards my locker but it was opened. My clothes were gone!
"Crap!"
I looked everywhere around the locker room to see if they were hidden anywhere. Soon I found a note on the bench saying:
Next time don't be so clumsy
-CL&BS
Standing for cheerleaders and basketball team.
How was I suppose to get home? I always walk or take the bus but, what am I suppose to do? I am definatly not taking the bus considering how many people would stare.
Ugh!
I calmed down and decided just to walk home and not worry about it.
I grabbed my backpack and the head of the costume to the doors. Putting on the head to avoid anyone recognizing me, I took a deep breath and walked out the front doors.
On the way home every time a car came by I saw a surprised look ok peoples' faces. It's not normal to see an alligator randomly walking on the sidewalk.
-
Once I get home I was relieved. I got the house keys from my bag and open the door. And instantly for some reason I begin crying.
I rush to my room ,passing the kitchen, and see my mom with a questioning look. Once at my room I slam the door and got into some real clothes throwing the costume into the corner.
Apparently I was really loud and my brother, Kyle, came in.
"What happened today?" He asked.
Kyle was a senior but went to a totally different high school. But I was stuck at Alvin only being a Junior.
"Nothing," I mumbled trying to hold back the tears. "Just those stupid girls again." I said still fighting them
"Oh come on Marnie. Those girls just want you to feel bad. And you shouldnt. Don't let them win, you need to stand up to them."
"I know, I know. It's hard though."
I wasn't really expecting my brother to understand. Considering he didn't get bullied at his school. He was the top football player. He was popular. Unlike me.
"Are you gonna be ok?" He asked.
"Yeah, I'll be fine." I replied.
"Okay. Well you know where to find me." I nodded and But right when he left I stuffed my head in my pillow and let the tears come out.
Sadly this happened everyday.
I had been on my bed for a while and decided to go to our treehouse. The treehouse was a place that my dad, brother, and I all built together. I always go up there to think about everything. It was also a place I felt like I could talk to my dad for advice.
You see, my dad died 5 years ago and it was the only thing I had left of him.
I climb up to the top and layed on the mini couch by the window.
Immediately I started thinking about Jack. I thought about how he held me today but he wouldn't like me. I was a total nerd with glasses, braces, messy, brown hair, and disgusting acne on my face.
The only thing I liked about it were my blue eyes.
Slowly I started thinking about all the events and then there's Rachel.
I always wondered why Jack never went out with Rachel. Because she is the cheer captain, has dark brown hair and I bet any guy would fall for her hazel eyes and perfectly tanned skin and she knows she is perfect. Everyone does.
On that note I shook my head trying to get her out of my mind to set it back on Jack again.
My eyes started closing and soon I was asleep.
