Our story starts with a young teenager named Alexia Gardner.She only had one close friend that she could truly trust with almost everything. Her name was Taylor Alvarez. They always had fun with one another, whether it was shopping, sleepovers or even just hanging out. On one specific day in the life of Alexia, she meets this boy which she doesn't know yet she'll fall in love with.

I heard my alarm go off in the morning and saw the sun rays come through my windows. *Great, first day of school*, I thought to myself. I honestly did not want to go to school today, especially because of that awful rumor that was started about me last year.
I started to sit up in my bed and rub my eyes trying to see more clearly. I let out a huge yawn before getting up and going downstairs to the kitchen. I grabbed a bowl from the cupboard and poured some cereal and milk in it. I walked over to the dining table and started eating. After I was finished I put the bowl in the sink and walked upstairs to get ready for school.
I already had my whole outfit ready. A beautiful crimson blouse with some blue shorts under and my white converse. For my hair I didn't want to do much so I just brushed it out and I was good to go. I grabbed my bag and was out of the house. As usual I walked over to my friend Taylor's house and knocked twice. She answered with a huge grin on her face.
"What are you so happy about?", I asked her.
"Oh come on Alexia! Its the first day of Junior year, a fresh start!", she said happily.
"Yea for you, I still have that rumor roaming around the school.", I said with an upset look on my face.
"Alexia, I'm sure by now its just the past.", she said giving me a hug.
"So are you ready?", I asked her.
"Yeap!", she said grabbing her backpack, "Bye mom! I'm going to school!", she yelled before closing the door.
We started walking to school which thankfully was only 5 blocks away from where we lived. As we got to the school I let out a soft groan and walked through the doors of Bradfield High-school. Surprisingly no one was staring at me. Hopefully they have forgotten..
I finally got my schedule after waiting 20 minutes with every other student in the school. I ran up to Taylor so we could check if we had some classes together. Luckily we had 3 classes together which consists of Biology, Honors Literature and Geometry.
"At least we have some classes together!", she sighed in relief.
"I know right, it would've been horrible if we didn't.", I told her.
We started walking to our first class together.. which was Biology..Great.
I took my seat next to Taylor. Of course. We started talking about going to the mall afterschool until we got cutoff by the teacher.
"Good morning class, my name is Mr.Osbourne and I will be your biology teacher for this year. First things first I need to take attendance and then I will be passing out Biology books to everyone." he said smiling.
Great, first day of school and we have to carry books. He went down the row taking attendance and afterwards like he said, he started passing out this huge Biology books. It was probably heavier than Taylor. Not saying that she's fat or anything.
I whispered to Taylor, "Looks like were going to have to make a pit stop before going to the mall.
"Got that right.", she whispered back.
The rest of the day went by real quick which is actually quite surprising. The final bell rang and everyone started rushing out of school. I was by the door waiting for Taylor to come out. After about 5 minutes I saw her coming out.
"Where the heck were you?", I asked with a serious face.
"Chill out I was just using the bathroom.", she said laughing.
Finally after a while of walking and blabbing on and on about girl things we reached my house. We started walking in and I spotted my older brother Max.. Great way to end the day. I thought to myself sarcastically.
"Hey there you little cutie.", he said with a smirk.
"Oh look Taylor, the troll is back.", I said with a grin on my face, "Come on lets go before he says something else that will waste our time."
We went upstairs to my room and got greeted by my small Pomeranian dog Lucie. Yes she is a girl. She ran up to us and started bouncing and jumping all over the place.
"Looks like someone's happy to see us!", Taylor said while giving Lucie a big old hug.
"Ok well just drop your stuff off and we can head to the mall!", I said with a cheerful smile.
"How exactly are we going to get there?", she asked me with a confused look on her face.
"Well my mom said we can use the Mini Cooper, but if she sees any mark of destruction then I am so dead.", I told her.
"Sounds good to me!", she replied back.
We quickly got changed into something more presentable for the mall, and if you must know I do let Taylor borrow my clothes. We finally decided what we were going to wear. I wore a short flowy dress with some brown flats. And Taylor wore some hot pink shorts, a white tank top and some white sandals.
"Girl, we look so sexy!", I told her.
We rushed down the stairs only to be stopped by my older brother Max again.
"And where do you two think your going?", he asked.
"If you must know you snobby little troll, we are going to the mall.", I said to him before pushing him aside to get out.
"Alright, but you have to be back before dark or else your in deep crap with mom.", he said before closing the door behind us.
A thing that you didn't know about me is that my mother is a single mother. She divorced my father when I was about 10 I'd say. Don't get me wrong it isn't as bad as you think, its just sometimes I need my dad. But anywho, my mom was seeing a new guy. I believe he's Brazilian.
I got into the car and started the engine before backing up to get on the road. And then Taylor and I were off to the mall!
"Oh my gosh!", Taylor shrieked.
"What did you find?!", I asked her almost yelling.
"A cashmere skirt. The one that I saw that one celebrity wear on the red carpet!", she said still shrieking with excitement.
"How much is it?", I ask a little startled by her shrieking.
"Oh wow! Only 30 bucks for this. I am so taking this with me.", she said.
"That's great! Look what I found, a Prada bag on sale! Only 50 dollars.", I said proudly.
"Very chic!", she said.
We both paid for our stuff and proudly walked out with our heads held high. We did some more shopping for about an hour and decided to take a quick latte break. I wondered what the time was and took out my phone. *Oh shit!* I thought to myself. Its 6:45 p.m. I am going to be in so much shit if I don't get to my house now. My mom gets off work in 10 minutes.
"Taylor we have to go right now!", I told her getting up and rushing to get to the car.
She was right behind me trying to catch up. "Why? What's going on?", she asked trying to gasp for air.
"My mom is going to be home any minute and its past dark. If I don't get home now I am in so much trouble!", I told her still running.
We rushed into the car and I quickly started the engine before driving like a maniac back home. I pulled up to the driveway and sighed in relief. She wasn't home yet, I got out the car and into the house before rushing to my bedroom. I put all of the things I bought onto my bed and collapsed on the floor.
"Wow what a rush!", Taylor said.
"Your telling me!", I answered back.
