Marnie
I woke up with a sore back and shoulders. Slowly opening my eyes, I realized I had fallen asleep on the floor of the tree house. Just looking at the treehouse brought so many memories.
I started tearing up but stopped and told myself I needed to be strong.
I got up and out of the tree house making sure I didn't miss a step on the ladder. I went to my room and got clothes to go take a shower and got ready for another dreadful day of school.
--------
During the next two years of high school of course the bullying never stopped. Rachel pulled jokes on me. Like tripping me during lunch so I had food all over my shirt, calling me all the mean names and embarrassing me everywhere I went. Then after school I always went to the tree house to cry my heart out and Kyle being the only one caring for me.
Finally there was graduation. The day I would get out of this hell hole and be free. But Rachel had to ruin it just like everything else.
On the day of graduation everyone was happy and excited and even me too. It would be the last time I would see all of these faces and man was I glad. I was accepted into a college for art and design in New York and I couldn't wait. Sitting in our navy blue gowns and graduation caps with the little yellow string on top I told my self not to let anything being me down.
We were in the auditorium with us students in the front with family and friends behind us. One by one they called us up.
"Hello, ladies and gentlemen." Our principal ,Ms. Fredson said standing at the podium. "I am pleased to announce our following high school graduates!"
Everyone cheered.
Calling us up row by row. Mine was first. I had realized something standing on the stage. Rachel was before me. This actually took me by surprise. Her last name started with 'An' and mine started with 'Co'. I bet you're wondering 'Well isn't there someone with a last name between that?' Well no, there isn't. Aren't I just the luckiest girl alive.

Walking up the stage I put on my best smile. Walking towards the end of the line Rachel sticks her foot out and trips me! Yes trips. I fall right on my face. I hear everyone gasp and chairs scooting back and even the music from the graduation stop.
I slowly got up with many people trying to help, but I politely pushed them away going to the end of the line. I looked towards the crowd seeing worried faces and his green eyes just caught me. Jack had the most angered but sincere face I have ever seen.
But I was completely humiliated.
