Falling for Kevin

Chapter 1

   I never really thought of how my life would be like if I had a boyfriend…..Well okay I was lying I always think about it. Heck I even dream about it sometimes. I see all my friends at school with their boyfriend or girlfriend and I can’t help but be jealous. Oh ha-ha sorry where are my manners!

   My name is Myriah Lee Gogo. I am seventeen years old and I am going into my senior year in high school. I am what you call a nerd/loner. I am the person people go too if they need a paper written or help with their homework. Other than that I’m a no body. I’m also the person most people pick on all the time. Mostly because of my last name, people seem to get a kick out of that, but if you ask me I just think they all need to grow up and grow some balls.

   I have brown shoulder length hair; my eyes are like a dark green and as for my body….. Well I guess you could say I am not the skinniest person in the world, but I’m not fat either.

   But anyway today is the first day of senior year and I am literally dreading it. I am not ready at all its just going to be another year of lots of homework/other peoples homework and a lot of bullying. UGH! I totally hate my life right now!

   Well…. I guess it’s time to get ready for school. I walk over to my closet and pick out just some jeans and a black shirt, nothing special. I have no one to impress so why try? I’m just going to get picked on regardless. But I’m more of a shirt and jeans kind of girl anyway.  I take my clothes that I picked out, grab a towel and walk to the bathroom to take a shower.

   After I’m dressed and ready to go I run to my room to get my back pack,  grab my phone and look at the time and I still have an hour to get to school, which gives me plenty of time to eat breakfast and do a little bit of reading. When I got down stairs I see my dad already making breakfast and in his work suite with his brief case at the front door.  

   My dad’s name is Howard he is what you call a workaholic. Even though he works a lot he still manages to take care of me and shows me the love that I need, so I won’t feel like no one loves me. Oh and if you were wondering I do not have any brothers or sisters and my parents divorced a while back when I was only six. The divorce tore my dad apart. Every night when I was trying to sleep I could hear him crying and sobbing. It broke my heart to hear my dad in such pain. Sometimes I wish I could just kill my mom for cheating on my dad with his best friend. I just don’t even want to talk about that right now.

   “Good morning baby girl! How’d you sleep?”

   “Okay I guess… but I’m so not ready for school. Can’t I just be home school?”

    “Ha-ha no can do baby girl you know how I feel about home schooling.”

   “Yeah, yeah I know, I know.”

   He sets my breakfast in front of me and says, “Eat up kiddo.” With that being said I dig in. After I finish eating I go sit on the couch and start reading Twilight. Reading is my way of escape, it’s the only way I can relax and get my mind off of things. I just can’t explain/express how much reading is important to me. Without reading I don’t know how I would have gotten this far in life.

    I was reading the part where Bella and Edward were about to walk into the forest when my dad came up behind me and kissed me on my head,

    “Time to go kiddo meet me in the car and please try not to take too long.”

   “Okay dad just let me grab my back I won’t take too long I promise.”

   I didn’t have to go upstairs because my back pack was already down stairs in the kitchen. Happy with myself that I thought ahead I skipped to the kitchen grabbed my bag and my phone and ran to meet my dad at the car. Once I was in the car I cranked up the radio and started jamming out to price tag. My dad was just laughing at me the whole ride.
