A Cinderella Story

Chapter 3

Maya POV

"Buenos dìas, fighting Eagles. Here's your daily drought reminder to reserve agua. Cut your showers short. Round points go out to Mr. Rothman who hasn't had one in weeks. And don't forget. Today is your last chance to get tickets to the big Halloween homecoming dance. Whoopty do. You too can dress up like someone your not for a change. I mean I..." then I was cut off by Pricipal Newman who starting saying the Pledge of Allegiance. I repeat it into the microphone. She grabs my hand and puts it to my chest and she wraps her arms around me. Kill me.

Missy POV

"Move."
"Move."
"Move."
"Move."

I see Amanda and Sara start to walk up to Me, Amy and Jessica saying hi. I smile and then we walk right past them.

"Remind me why we tolerate them." I question.

"Because they gave you a Prada bag for your birthday," Jessica responds.

"More like Frada, it was totally fake," Amy interferes.

Riley POV

Missy and her girls pushed me and Farkle to the side as we walked past them. As we turn the corner, we bump into none other than Charlie Gardner. I gasp as I stop short.

"Greeting Riley. You look absolutely stunning today as per usual," and he gestures my outfit.

"Oh, thank you Charlie," I respond with a small smile. Then I hear a beeping go off. And Charlie checks his watch.

"Oh, if you'll excuse me I must get back to my galaxy now," he explains pulling out unknown objects and a wire from his pocket and walks away.

"Poor guy."

"At least he's happy."

"Happy? This guy lives in another world."

"Sometimes fantasy's better than reality, Farkle." My phone goes off. I check my phone and saw I received a new message.

"Speaking of fantasy," Farkle jokes.

"See you later," I giggle. Remember when I talked about my online account before, yeah. Maddog texted me. I smile at Farkle then run off to the water fountain in the middle of the courtyard.

I sit at the water fountain and check my new message. (a/n: this is a conversation text. there will be minimal breaks. M= Maddog. P= PrincetonGirl.)

M: Where have u been? We haven't talked in ages.
P: We talked this morning.
M: I can't stop thinking about you.
M: What's on your mind right now?
P: You first.
M: I'm thinking that Professor Rothman's dissected one 2 many frogs.

I look up at Mr. Rothman to see that he could barely eat his sandwich and starts spitting it out on the ground. I giggle. My eyes wander to all the people on their phones around me. My phone goes off again.

M: Ribet ribet
P: Lol
M: Ah I want to hear your laugh. When can we finally meet?

I start texting my final message and hit send. When the bell rings, I get up and start to head over to my class.

Lucas POV

P: Soon!

I look at her message, sigh, then lock my phone. I get up and start to head to my first class.
