It was a typical Monday morning, and Noah was screaming at the top of his lungs.

"I don't want Jam, I want Nutella!!!!"

I heard mum try to reason with him,

" Have Jam today, then have Nutella tommorow. Okay."

More screaming erupted. The answer to that question was obviously No.

At that very same moment, my dad came into my room,

"Hi, Poppet. Will you do me and your mum a big favour. Will you get dressed, then go down to the shop and buy some Nutella for Noah." He opened my hand and placed a ten pound into the palm of my hand.

"Oh, and spend the rest of the money on your self. Thanks Amelia."

And with that he left the room. I opened my wardrobe and decided to wear a pair of skinny jeans and my, My Daddy Is Famous, top. I pulled a pair of converses out of the shoee box and headed towards the bathroom. I turned the shower on and the hot water felt soothing as it beated down on my skin.

After 10 minutes in the shower, I got out and got dressed. I dried my hair using mum's hair drying as mine was broken, thanks to Noah. I brushed my hair then grabbed my beanie from my desk. I pulled it over my head, grabbed my skateboard and headed for the local shop. i pushed the door open and the little bell dinged. Old Mrs Partridge appeared behind the counter.

"Hello Amber," She always gets my name wrong, "How can I help you?"

"Um...... I'm looking for some Nutella."

"It's on the shelf nearest the frozen section."

I walked over, picked up the jar of Nutella and took it too the counter.

"Is that all?" Mrs Partridge asked,

I picked up a GirlsOnly magazine. All the girls in my class read it so why shouldn't I.

"And this too." I answered. She scanned the items.

"That will be 6.98 altogether." She said. i handed her the ten pound note.

She put it into the till and gave me 3.01 change. I picked up the Nutella and the magazine, waved goodbye to Mrs Partridge and left the shop.

On the way home, a few familiar voices began calling my name,

"Oy. Amelia. Oy. You. PEABRAIN." Jodie and Chanell called.

A sudden pain shot through my head, they had thrown a rock at me.

"Bog off." I shouted. Chanell came up behind me and grabbed the magazine.

"Hay, Jodie. Guess what peabrains been reading, GirlsOnly." She giggled.

"Seriously." Jodie sniggered. "Why are you reading it. You don't know about half the things these girls talk about.LOSER." She threw the magazine on the floor and walked off, with Chanell at her heal.

I walked through the front door, handed dad the change and gave the Nutella to Noah. I then walked into my room, sat on my bed, opened the magazine and began to read the problems page,

Dear Agony Aunt,

Today I started my period. It was really weird. I stared it in Science class, in front of all my friends. Blood was pour.................

I stopped reading and threw the magazine across the room. Jodie and Chanell were right. I am a LOSER.
