I ran down the coast, my hair swinging from side to side in the ponytail until suddenly something knocked me down.No one ever saw me running, so I quickly got up, aware of the boys coming to check on me, and ran home.

You see,I was the nerd, and everyone has a different nerd art school. Well,I was the quiet, weird, ugly, and bullied one with too long brownish blonde hair, though I don't know how it's possible, yet it is, and greenish blue eyes.

I've never been one to talk unless it was needed, which want much, so everyone called me mute. It hasn't annoyed me, but one thing has.

The bullying is too much-they dunk me...in toilets, hurt me physically, and anything else you can think of. I still have bruises on my arms...

So right now, I'm taking a shower and getting ready for a day of school since just now was a early morning run. I put on some Jeans, sneakers,a t-shirt , and suspenders to clip to my Jeans and go over my shirt.

Once done,I put on my huge, not needed nerd glasses and a bit of lip balm. As I finish, I head down to breakfast. My mom and dad were always on business trips so they decided to have my famous uncle and sunny watch over me in Florida, Sarasota.

I greeted them and scarf my food down before giving both aunt Lila and uncle Matt a hug. "Thanks, I'll be back by sunset!" I shouted. My Aunt Lila was a famous actress, mostly in her new show-Loving Me, and Uncle Matt was a famous director and music producer. Everyone knows that the two are related and have a niece, but no one knows it's me. They think it's that girl called Dakota Fanning. I put on my ankle boots and walked out the friont door before starting to walk in the semi-warm air.

I got to school, luckily, in one piece and was left alone. Well, except for the times they drew 'Loser' on my forhead, spilled tomato juice over my white v-neck, gave me a wedgie! And so yes, I was completely left alone. I was being stared at as I entered the cafeteria, so I just stood there for a second. It was pin-drop silence, and I did so. I dropped a pin, and you could hear each vibration.

Then, suddenly, everyone was laughing so hard, and before I knew it, a bucket of something slimy came down on me. It turned out to be eggs, yolk and all. I glared at them all, tears threathening to fall. I simply threw my things down and ran home before crying myself to sleep.

The next morning, I didn't even try to look nice. I only had on a random 'Pierce the Veil' t-shirt, some baggy cargo shorts, and some sneakers before walking out of the house. I got to school and on the banner of the school, it said, 'Welcome back nerd!'

I grit my teeth before going to my locker, suddenly remembering I had nothing-I had most of my things with me because when I leave stuff in the locker, people mess with them, and yesterday, I threw it away. I groaned and just made my way to the rooftop of the school, lying down and soaking up the sun.

"Hey, you can't be here," someone says, and I turn to see a girl with blonde waves and brown eyes in a green polka dot dress. "Oh, I thought you were someone else," she grinned, and I looked at her with disgust before quickly covering it up, knowing there would be no gratitude my way. "I'm new here; Elizabeth Sage."

"Oh....sorry, I'm Kody. Why come in the middle of junior year?"

"Well...my parents are in Indonesia doing architectural stuff, so they shipped me off to my cousin's place. He lives with his mom."

"Oh, who's your cousin," I asked.

"Aiden Jacobs; he's a jerk." I laugh eat her words.

"Oh, the nerd's made a friend, hasn't she?" A voice sneered.

"Go away, Aiden, unless you want me to tell everyone about..."

"Fine, I'll go, but watch your back, Nerd." He sneered again before walking off.

"Sorry about him, he's just a bore; let's go to the mall, you need a makeover."

I scoffed, "No, thank you. Let's just go to classes." And we did just that.

After school, we had gotten to Dairy Queen. "Can I have a large Heath ice cream," I asked. He nodded distactedly and followed his gaze to me chest. "Hey, eyes up here, buddy!" He smirked before handing me my ice cream cup and spoon. Elizabeth and I sat at the first table outside the shop in the sun. It was barely 3 pm, and I had about an hour before I had to get home.

"I'm hungry," she suddenly moaned, and I stared at her small parfait.

I give her a pointed look, "Says the girl who ordered a tiny parfait from some health shop down the street." As soon as I say that, something cold is dumped on me, and I taste cotton candy ice cream.

I heard the snickering as they hopped into their cards and drove off. Elizabeth walked me home and sat in my bedroom. I showered and put on some shorts and a giant shirt before jumping onto my bed beside her, finding all my clothes in burning ashes.

"Time for that makeover, huh," I smirked and she nodded. I bounded downstairs in jeans and a tank top only to find my aunt and uncle playing dog-on Bingo.

Liz's mouth dropped open and she elbowed me in the ribs. "Why are famous people in your house," she asked just as the two called my name.

"Aunt Lila and Uncle Matt, why are you here," I groan and they smirked.

"You finally brought a friend," they squealed like little school girls. I stared at my uncle and he blushed furiously, making all of us girls laugh at him.

"Yes, I'm her friend," Liz spoke up after the shock. "We're going to give her a complete makeover,

she squealed and then Aunt Lila started jumping up and down.

She calmed down and seemed to be in thought, "Why are you getting a makeover?" And that's when I broke into full story.

A few hours later, it was already almost 11pm at night. I was supposed to look like some bad chick or whatever, and I'd gotten some additions to my look. My hair now had caramel and red tips, and I had a tattoo of a caged bird on my wrist. It also had the words 'nerd' and 'strong' under and above it. I was going to take Friday-tomorrow off- and just return Monday morning, so I was happy with that.
