The "Deal"

Chapter 1

Amelia above

I walk into my school hearing the faint whispers about me all around, but they aren't so faint as I can clearly hear them bouncing off the walls. People are lousy whispers nowadays.

I am Amelia, Amelia Allen's the unwanted girl, the girl everyone hates because she's the teachers pet, the girl who gets t.... Well you get the point.

I walk to my locker quickly trying to avoid prying eyes as I turn my locker, lock to the left, then the right, then left again. I shove all my books into my neat and tidy locker careful not to mess it up. I am what some call a neat freak I don't really care all that much though I get called way worse.

I grab my Science book and quickly shut, and lock my locker. Picking up my backpack and carefully putting it on my shoulder I head straight for Mrs. Taylor's room. I approach the doors as I let the "populars" that's what people like me call people like them, fill in the classroom some sending me unwanted looks.

I grab a seat at the back of the class not wanting to be noticed so the jocks don't shove there homework up my face,but I guess luck isn't on my side today as Natalie Cole approaches me chewing on her worn out bubble gum from first period. "Get up." She says making a loud popping noise with her chewing gum.

Not wanting to get on her bad side even more than I already am I get up and walk to a different seat in the back of the classroom. That just so happens to be next to Noah Forman's seat. Maybe he won't notice me, maybe he will keep his eyes trained on the blond bimbo that sits in front of him. It's not that Noah Forman's ugly he's far from ugly he's the hottest dude in Molten high, he has all the girls fanning over him and all the guys wanting to be him.

If anything though I am frightened by Noah. He's the reason everyone picks on me, him and his little back up squad, oh yes there's a squad.

Just as I was thinking this I feel a stare burning an intense hole through my head, okay maybe not through my head, but it was pretty intense. I turn my head slowly to come face to face with a smirking Noah as always, when doesn't he have a smirk on his face?

"Okay class settle down I know your all excited to learn about Newtons Third Law but please keep your excitement down." My teacher jokes as she comes in closing the door quietly, and walking to her desk. Theirs a series of groans as Mrs. Taylor begins to talk about the lessons.

I try to wright down as many notes as possible not really knowing what's going to be on the test. As I wright it all down on the paper with lines. Lines I like line paper it helps me keep things neat and tidy just like my locker it's always neat even my backpack is.. okay hold up I am getting off topic anyway as I was saying I was wrighting down important notes when I feel a piece of wadded up paper hit the back off my head with a thud and land on the ground.

I continue to stare at my piece of paper as I try to ignore the paper that is constantly being thrown onto my head and falling to the floor. I was just about to raise my hand to ask to use the bathroom or more like sit in the bathroom until the rest of class is over but the bell had beat me to it signaling the end of fourth period and the beginning of lunch. Can you say saved by the bell I guess time flys when your constantly trying to ignore paper balls that are being thrown carelessly at your head with a bunch of jocks laughing at you.

As I quickly put my science folder in front of my history folder and behind my leadership folder making sure I was as neat as before I walked into class, I zipped up my backpack, throwing it over my shoulder and headed to my locker.

Opening it I shove my backpack in and lock my locker after grabbing my lunch and heading to the courtyard to eat in peace.

Approaching the courtyard I see that it's empty as usual kids eat inside so they can socialize with their friends as for me since I have no friends I prefer to eat away from everyone and by myself.

Taking my book that I grabbed from my locker I open it to my previous page taking out an apple completely abandoning my lunch as I gorge myself in my book. I love books it's my getaway from reality, where I can be anyone I want and not worry about life ahead of me.

Looking up I hadn't realized everyone was throwing their trays or lunches they brought from home away, and packing there things up. Reluctantly I place my apple core in the bag with the lunch I abandoned and throw it away. I hate to be a waist but all that was in there was the apple, a sandwich, and a juice box. The sandwich would never have gotten eaten and now that I think about it I should have kept my juice box.

The rest of my day consist of my normal day rituals, jocks picking on me,and taking a whole bunch of notes considering our end of the year exams are coming up, along with summer.

As the last bell rings signaling the end of the school day I quietly pack my things up before putting it into my locker neatly for school tomorrow. Walking out the front of the schools double doors and making my way home.

I usually take the privilege to walk home, we don't have to worry about criminals, or kidnappers around here that I know about it's just a friendly town well the grown ups are friendly the students eh not so much.

As I'm walking down the familiar road to get to my average looking house I can't help but notice how beautiful it is today the sky is blue, not a cloud in sight, with the flowers poking up like getting a suntan. I reach down and pick a flower off the grass and put it behind my ear as I continue my journey down the street to my house.

"Hey nerd wait up." I turn at the name nerd who else could it be I am the only nerd at my school. I slowly come to a halt and look behind me I am not at all shocked to see Noah smirking at me with a paper ball in his hands.

"You forgot this in class." He says throwing the paper ball at my face but I catch it just before it hits me straight in the face or four head if you want to be exact. I may be a nerd at my school but outside of school I actually play a sport shocker I know. Who says a nerd can't catch. I mean I am a softball player. As priceless as his face is to see that I can catch I un-wad the crumpled piece of paper realizing it was our homework for science.

Didn't I already do this and put it in my folder. "Uh this isn't mine."

"No dip Sherlock it's mine have it done before tomorrow." He says looking bored of the conversation, well me and him both.

"No." I say standing my ground even though he scares the crap out of me.

"No?" He asked as if angry and amused by the situation. "No?" He asked again.

"Yes No!" I say a little more confident. But as soon as he chuckles I lose all my confidence and he notices too completely taking advantage of the situation.

"Cya tomorrow and you better have my homework to bye nerd." I sigh as I clutch the paper if he thinks I am doing this he is truly mistaken.

As I continue to walk I come to my front door quietly closing the door not wanting to wake my mom up after her hard day at work as a pediatrician dealing with kids all day then coming home to deal with me. I close my door as I set my things down on my bedroom floor, while I flop down onto my comfy bed. It's been one hell of a day.
