Another Cliche Cinderella Story

Cleo's POV

After my conversation with Dylan, I just needed time to think. I just need time to process what has happened. So much stuff has happened and has been said, some things which have hurt me but which have also made me feel like I'm on cloud nine.

Thinking about it, Dylan and Jake aren't that different. I see how over the last few weeks Dylan has been more friendly and mature with his choices if I didn't know why I would think this Dylan was an imposter. That fact I've managed to change him somehow is outstanding, I didn't even know I had such an influence. But he still lied to me. It all comes back to that, he lied to me when I trusted him. I don't trust easily and he knew that, so for him to not tell me as soon as he realized I had trust issues, is frustrating and hurtful.

On the other hand, when he was Jake he was the sweetest guy I have ever met, yes he might have got mad a few times but he was so different compared to what he would do if he was mad outside of the dark room. It's like the darkroom is Dylan's getaway.

I had photography first, as it's our last day our teacher decided to take a look at our work since we started college. Looking through everyone's work was incredible. Looking at how everyone in my class has progressed was such a cool thing to experience. And my photography skills had certainly improved. After we looked at work we had a few soft drinks and cakes as a fair well party gets together.

As soon as the lesson was over I had math, the last time I would face these people. I took a deep breath before heading to class. As I walked through the corridors people whispered under there breaths, clearly talking about the image of me from earlier. I sent daggers at Jenna's minions as they barged past me in a hurry, they have no respect at all.

"Freak show, why don't you take your top off? Show us what you've got under there," a jerk shouted as I hurried along. I rolled my eyes whilst picking up my pace.

When I finally made it to class I sat down, letting out a huge sigh. Dylan walked in and sat a few seats behind, we both knew it was best to give one another space whilst I thought about my decision. I had until the end of the day. There was a huge assembly after the lesson for all of the leavers so I had till after then to decide. Our math class was used as a make-out session. The popular people were daring one another to kiss the more geeky girls that sat at the front of the class. Poor girls, little did they know that the guys would never talk to them again.

I sat watching from aside as Dylan and his mates joked around. He wasn't daring his friends to do anything, but that didn't stop them from daring him.

"Go on, go get her. I heard she's fancied you since we went to secondary school," one of Dylan's friends said to him whilst pointing at a girl ahead. I rolled my eyes, secretly hoping Dylan wouldn't do it. I glanced at Dylan to see his reply. He looked over, causing our eyes to lock. Dylan then looked at the floor before shaking his head.

"Nah, I'm alright," he said cheerfully. He sounded so proud of himself for not going through with it. For a moment there I thought he was going to do it just to make me jealous and give him a straight answer.

"Come on," his friend elbowed him slightly, "we both know you want to, you haven't had any action since you broke up with Jenna," his friend scoffed. I'm gathering it that he never told his mate about us kissing.

"I have actually and I'm not going to hurt her," he said through clenched teeth, I could see he was getting worked up. It was sweet that he didn't want to hurt me, but he already had. I really need to think about what I want to do.

"Fine," his friend said as he rolled his eye. "She must be somewhat special for you to turn down a pointless make out," his friend demanded.

Dylan's eyes flew to me, a small smirk flew across that gorgeous face of his, "she sure is," he replied as he shot another smile my way. He knew I was listening. I swiveled back around facing the front as clips from this year's leavers was played on the smart board. Funny photos of people during lesson and trips were placed on the board making people laugh.

When you think all of the photos have been shown, one photo is shown at the end of the credits.

"In memory of the colleges freak," were the words that were placed next to the photo of me half naked. The teacher instantly shut down the computer. Everyone was laughing, some guys whistling and shouting to me to take my top off. The teacher couldn't get the class to settle down. Who and how had they put that photo on a clip the teacher had made? I glanced over at Jenna's minions and they just smirked at me with an evil grin. I could feel tears boiling within, I was not going to cry. I've cried enough to last the year.,I took a deep breath before glancing at Dylan. He looked fuming, he seriously looked like he was going to strangle Jenna's minions. When he saw me glaring his face soften, mouthing, "are you okay?" to me. I nodded silently even though I wasn't.

"Someone please explain to me why they decided to ruin such a great video by exploiting a fellow student?" The teacher said, no one responded.

"Fine, but I warn you if we find out who it was we shall remove any qualifications you would have earned from this class," the teacher yelled before dismissing everyone. It might be the last day of college but they could still easily remove our grade if we did anything stupid before we left the college for good.

Guys, we're still muttering things about me as they left, telling me they would see me later for a booty call etc. I just glanced back at them with a disgusted look, whereas Dylan was going full-on bad guy. He was shouting at them to stop talking like that and to leave me alone and that I wasn't there's. I was his.

Dylan was yelling that I was his.

The question of the day: What is your favorite film?  It's quite a tricky question because there are so many films and I love sooo many. Any Marvel film or romance film is my favorite. If I had to choose one Marvel film it would be Avengers. My favorite Avenger is Thor. I love Loki too, he is a great villain :P

Have a good day! 

Until next time,
