I wake up in my bed. My soft sheets caressing my warm body. I really don't want to get up and go to school. I don't want to go because I know that today is the same as every other day. I'll walk into class, see him and my stomach will flip. Harry. Oh I love that name. It reminds me of how beautiful he is, how amazing his smile is, how his eyes bore into my soul. But most of all how he's not mine. But I can't do anything about that. So I get ready, take a deep breath and drive to school.
As i walk into my first lesson i see him. Laughing and joking with his mates, staring in awe at her. Everyday, watching him. It kills me that he's not mine. All mine. That's my one wish, and I hate myself for it. I don't even know why I feel this way, why I feel that I want him, need him, so much. I sit there behind him everyday as he fixes his eyes on Taylor Jacobs. I hate her. TaylorJacobs - Queen bee of year 12 at Brombsley Grammar School. She is beautiful, yes. But she would be more so if she dressed less hooker-like. I mean for goodness sake. Her shirt is open all the way down to her cleavage. Yeah she has nice boobs, nice figure, blah blah blah, but really?! We don't want to see your boobs and bra, at least us girls don't. A skirt so short it should be illegal! Why you feel comfortable to dress like that I really don't know. I on the other hand am so insecure I hate myself for it. I wear my shirt buttoned up, my skirt at a 'reasonable' length, aka a frumpy, geeky length. I wear glasses, but really want contact lenses. And I'm quite smart so that's just the cherry on the ice cream sundae of geekiness. I really wish I was a bit more confident, maybe I would be found more attractive. I would like that.
So I walk in, with my head down trying to avoid getting noticed when suddenly "Hey, freak!..." I stopped dead in my tracks, and turned to look at Taylor, mocking me "What you lookin' at? Ya shoes are horrid! Hahahaa!" I flushed bright red, tucked my hair behind my ear and ducked my head further down. "Hahaha! Nice one Tay!" was the responce from her 'followers' which she classes as friends. I was about to turn and walk away when someone defended me "Aw, c'mon Tay. Not cool babe. She's only just walked in for gods sake." It was Harry. I looked his way in admiration. Harry was defending me. Geeky, uncool, ugly, me. "Urgh, whatever Harry, I thought you loved me. Do you not love me?! Ohmygod you don't love me!" Taylor exclaimed before starting to sob. Harry rolled his eyes as he proclaimed he loved her more than anything and anyone in the world. This then brought me back to reality - of course he doesn't like me, he like little miss popularity-big boobs-slut face. I carried on walking to my seat as Taylor giggled and mauled Harry. It made me feel sick.
Harry's seat is one in front of mine. As the teacher walked in and he sat down he turned round to me. My heart beating out of my chest. "Hey sorry about that. She's a little... you know, sometimes. Aha I'm sure she didn't mean it." I stared at him, not knowing what to say. He returned the stare before saying, "So, what's your name?". Ohmygosh my name. What was my name again. Oh yeah, Alice. My name was Alice. "Urm... I... I, ur..." My mouth was dry, and I was lost for words making a complete idiot of myself. I sighed. "Okay then, well I'm Harry, nice meeting you, blue eyes" Then he turned around and focused on the lesson. Wait, what just happened. He called me blue eyes. Wow! Harry called me blue eyes! I know its not a lot but to me, WOW! I smiled to myself and continued with the lesson.
So when the lesson was over I packed up my stuff and headed for the door, Taylor and Harry just ahead of me. As Taylor walked out the door Harry turned back and said "Bye blue eyes" and winked at me. I stood still. My world spinning around me. Did I just imagine that?! No he really did and said that. A huge grin appeared on my face as I walked out the classroom. There stood the opposite side to the door was my bestfriend, Megan. "What took sooo long 4 eyes?" she said with a mischievous glimmer in her eyes. Its a think we do, I'm 4 eyes and she's brace face. The only difference between us is that she makes her name and braces work! 4 eyes and glasses just aren't really helping me hit a high note. I grinned at her as we sluggishly headed to break. "So my class was so boring I practically fell asleep!" Said Megan whilst checking her Facebook newsfeed. "Why? What lesson was it?" I asked. "P.E", Hahahaaa! Oh she does make me laugh! "So what about you? How was English?" I looked at my shoes, flushed and smiled to myself before answering "Oh yeah, it was... it was good."
Break was soon over and the rest of the day seemed to pass by in a blur. I drove home and went straight up to my bedroom and logged onto my computer. As I was scrolling through my newsfeed on Facebook I suddenly got a notification. I clicked to have a look and Harry had liked my Profile picture. Ohmygosh! Harry liked my profile picture! Okay this was officially the best day ever! I was so ecstatic I was dancing around my room until mum called me down for tea. I briefly told my parents and little brother, Joe, about my day, as I ate, before going back upstairs to my room, to sleep. I knew that I would be able to dream happily tonight!
