Spectrum [DISCONTINUED]

IV - Alter Ego

Ally's POV

I don't want to go to school today.
I really don't wanna go to school today.
I am opposed to going to school today.
I am morally opposed to going to school today.

My alarm clock rang again, reminding me that I was five minutes behind schedule. And with me, I need a schedule for everything. So this is not good.

I got up and decided it was the best to look really good today. I think it was because I realized that I am thinking about this girl way to much... Whoever she is... And I need a kickstart to my day. Some thing positive. So I looked as good as I could imagine myself that morning.

I still don't know why I'm still intimidated by this girl. But whatever the reason, I still think she's gorgeous.

It was another long day of school, but at least there is only two days of school left. There was only one thing that was cool that I learned today. In my math class, they found it necessary to tell us about cryptology and codes. They were going on and on about how you can change letters to numbers, and if you see a random set of numbers you should see what they are in letters. It was actually kinda interesting, but some of it sounded like voodoo shit to me.

But I'm really excited for when school goes out. Then the summer will come and I will totally change. In the summer, all the popular people go to their other houses in someplace exotic. As for me? I stay at home and wear baggy pants and no makeup. It's like my alter ego, but really the popular one is just an act to not be on the bottom.

I really hope I meet someone cute over the summer. Someone... For a little fling. A summer fling. But for god's sake, why am I so intrigued by this girl? She isn't even popular. But I do wonder why I haven't ever been attracted to a guy. Nobody would go and tease me, but people do wonder why I am so hard to get. Before I thought I just wasn't into boys yet... But not I'm not so sure. Maybe this whole thing will fix itself. I mean, it's not like I'm ever going to see that girl again.

As I walked home (I decided to walk instead of drive today), a sudden thought hit me. Those numbers that were on my desk... Cryptic messages... 4357... I needed to figure that out.

When I got home, I typed it on a keypad and looked at the possible letters. I eliminated all of the letters that would not make any sense. And then, voila! The letters were help. Help. That was probably written by someone like that girl. Who is on the bottom.

But it could never be her. That just would be too much of a coincidence. I sighed, and then I realized how much I was actually intrigued by this girl. It was all so confusing. What label did I have for this girl? Is it just "the girl", or is it something more like "the girl that I saw get beaten up that I think is really pretty and I am very confused about and why am I still thinking about her this is really weird and its a completely new subject for me I hope nothing bad happens I think I'm just ranting now about how I feel for this girl."

What the hell is happening?
