Dreams

I'm not the prettiest girl around but I'm not extremely ugly you know. The boys don't fawn over me yet the don't run away or avoid me. I am not popular and I'm not a loser either, I'm just sort of forgotten and that's one thing I have to change. I'm not going to waste the next 6 years of my life being invisible to everyone. I want to have people notice and talk about me. I know I'm only in 7th grade but it's important to me that by the time I'm done here I know I went out with a bang. I certainly do not want to be popular, I just want to stand out.

"hey court!" Kayla said walking up to me. She's my best friend and has been since I can remember. No matter what she is here for me and I know that but it's been hard lately and she tries to be there but doesn't understand.

"hey Bumble bee!" I say as she walks down the hall. It's Halloween and we are finally aloud to dress up in anything. I choose to be a vampire, for me that just means a black dress and fangs. kayla was a bee, she looked cute. my other friends soon showed up and we talked for a while. The bell rings too soon for any of us and I have gym first with none of my friends. Kayla though has to go to Jackie's office today and talk to her, Jackie is the school councilor, I've never been in there to talk but I should be I guess im just to embarrassed. I love that Kayla is going though because she's been having a hard time and I get to talk to her for another five minutes.

"so have you seen Jake yet today?" she asks me with a smile.

"no, who do you think I was looking for!" I say my face completely red as I shove her. By this time there is almost no one in the hallway.

"well I did, he's a wolf" she said with fake concern.

"oh no we are mortal enemies!" I screech as she walking into Jackie's. Part of me just wishes I could have just went with her. I hate gym when I have no friends. Plus it doesn't help that jake the most perfect guy in my grade is in there. Im so fat and ugly and he is so athletic and skinny Not to mention I have known him since we were 6 and I've had a crush ever since. I walked into the gym, late as always but so is her. The only people I talk two are our two foreign exchange students, Jazzy and Jessie, theyre the only girls in there that aren't total bitches. Class after Class, I don't really care for any until after 5th hour. I get to my 5th hour class, choir, I'm so happy when I see my 4 bestfriends sitting in the back row right behind my assigned seat. Alexis, she is around 5'5 and has blonde THICK hair, Katie, she is around 5'4 with brown curly thick hair, Kayla, she has brown straight hair and is around 5'7, And we have Alice she has super thin blonde hair. I am the tallest at 5'11 with brown wavy hair. I sit down in the third row in my assigned seat today. Sometimes I sit here so I can sit next to this really cute boy in my choir class, he is a year older then me but im not sure about his name. He talks to me sometimes and it makes my day but I haven't told my friends yet because its sort of pathetic. Today he didn't talk to me though but it doesn't matter, I don't like him I like jake. Yeah jake is nice, safe and familiar. this boy is dangerous, a stranger but he is kind to me. class is dismissed to go to lunch but then we have to go back to choir class. "psst." the boy who sits next me says and leans towards me.

"what?" I ask him trying to be quiet so Mrs. Fields, our choir teacher, doesn't hear or see us.

"umm it's Halloween" he says fiddling with his hands as he tries to avoid eye contact.

"I know im going to hang out with my friends" I say smiling not thinking.

"oh I figured" he mumbled. Im so stupid I should have said no or invited him to house to hang with  me and my friends.

"Courtney! Ashton!" Mrs. Field yells at us. I guess that's his name.

"sorry" he says sarcastic and all of his friends laugh, well I assume his friends.
