Walking down the corridor I felt alone... yet I was surrounded by people. Each in their own world consumed by themselves. I silently watched as someone would smile without it reaching their eyes and everyone around them wouldn't even notice. The normally bubbly girl was surprisingly silent and everyone just simply got mad at her for not laughing instead of asking if she was okay. A selfish world I thought... one where you never really knew who your friends were, and what exactly the word beautiful meant. Everyone simply expected you to be something and if you were not, well then..... you were no longer part of the group.

School was a test. One where you would be pushed to your limits and sometimes would end up crying for no apparent reason. Some days you would feel amazing and other days you would feel alone. Friendships would be made and hearts would be broken. School to me was a routine and something I was forced to do. I wasn't really given a choice, but rather told it was a luxury and I am blessed to even be getting an education. This is my story, my thoughts, feelings and even experiences given a voice. Sometimes I wish this voice could be heard and that people would actually listen.

Making my way down the corridor, I was left to my own thoughts.. ones I didn't completely love but couldn't quite get rid of. The constant insecurity about my looks kept making its way into my brain and the need to be popular was always a thought that was kept close to my heart.
Quickly shaking my head I pushed these thoughts away and concentrated on holding my head up high and surviving the day.
Entering the now noisy classroom I made my way to my seat. Forcing a smile onto my face was easier said than done. I hated smiling, I didn't quite like my smile and I felt like a fake for even trying to come across as happy and that life was just perfect. You see.. to me life was not perfect and could never be, that this was an illusion people liked to believe and parents liked to sell to their kids. Breathing in I looked towards the board and waited for the teacher to come in. Suddenly I felt a nudge to my side making me look towards the culprit with a slight frown gracing my forehead, a small grin slowly made its way onto my face upon seeing my friend Scarlett who had taken the seat next to me. Snapping my head to the front of the class I couldn't help but groan at the idiotic boys in my class who thought drawing a penis on the board would be hilarious. This is going to be a long year I thought as I placed my head down on my desk. As the teacher made her way into the classroom and began the lesson on electrostatics ignoring the vulgar drawing now on her board I couldn't help but smirk at the boys as their faces dropped in disappointment.

"Lunch couldn't have come sooner" I thought slight irritated with how long the day seemed to drag on. Making my way to my table I was interrupted by a few people wanting to say hi, you see I'm popular, I don't have a problem making friends and speaking my mind... I just have a problem with finding true friends and truly fitting in, feeling like a belonged somewhere.

After finally saying my last good-bye, I turned around from the lunch line to head to my table in the cafeteria. I spun around too quickly and suddenly was surrounded by food flying everywhere.

Closing my eyes and breathing in deeply I opened my eyes to apologise for not watching where I was going. Big mistake, the person in front of me was some new guy who was trying way too hard to look like a bad boy, "a little desperately" I couldn't help but think. Looking down at myself I couldn't help but grimace and hold back a grin at the irony... I mean I was wearing my black high waisted jeans, my white three quarter crop top, my leather doc marten combat boots and my leather black jacket, one of my favourite outfits that also happen to be covered in heavens knows what but despite that made me look pretty kiss***. The stranger and I matched with his black leather combat boots and leather jacket with black skinny jeans that covered his toned legs and white plain t-shirt that extenuated his already toned body.

Sighing I looked up once again to find this so called 'cool' guy studying me, I rolled my eyes, smirked and then said "Look I'm sorry I didn't look before I turned around and I didn't mean to make you appear to be my next meal... but then again the food does make an improvement and would totally cause girls to now drool over you so I guess you welcome" with a wink I turned on my heels and walked towards my table stopping short when I heard a husky low laugh coming from the 'cool' guy. "Look buttercup I know I look drool worthy already and that you didn't want anyone to see this cause you may find yourself becoming jealous, but next time just ask and you will receive I don't mind sharing. As for your food... you don't need to add to my already hotness cause I don't think the female population would be able to handle it but thanks for trying anyways" with that he winked at me and turned and walked away but not before turning around and saying "Hey buttercup I can't wait to see you around.. this year may not be as bad as I thought" with a cheeky smirk he left. Slightly shocked at his cheek and impressed with his confidence a small smirk graced my lips as I thought about how maybe the year wouldn't turn out to be so bad and with me shockingly finding myself agreeing with the 'cool' boy I carried on.

Feeling lazy and tired I decided I was going home, no use staying at school with hot sauce running down where hot sauce shouldn't be running down I got up saying a quick good-bye to my table "See you later cows!" I made my way out. Walking out the front door towards my baby a Ducati in purple and black I climbed on and revved the engine, loving the sound and feel of my bike vibrating at my actions I couldn't help but finally smile. Looking up I caught the new boy looking at me impressed and shocked with what appeared to be another two new boys. Smirking at him I wheel spun and road out the school gates at an illegal speed. Leaving the boys in my dust. Loving the feel of the wind in my hair, the purr of the engine and the feel of my wheels running over the tar, I could finally breath and release some of the knots in my back and stress playing on my mind. It was just me and the speed. The world was a blur and I was free.... for all of 15 minutes but that's pursides the point. *smirk*

Lying in bed that night I couldn't help but think of the new boy and who he was..." I guess tomorrow I'm going to need to find answers" I thought... and always keep myself on my toes so that my comebacks would leave him speechless and shocked... you see this princess has claws and a backbone.... and I intend to show him this, that no one dares mess with Mia Starlight and lives to tell the tale *smirk*
