Okay now before you read this book. Yes I know this book starts out like the The Bad Boy, Cupid and Me. Do not comment it. I know. The first couple of chapters are like it but trust me they are nothing alike. If one more person comments this I will take a gun, find you, and kill you. I'm just kidding XD. But my head will explode. Please do not say it because I already know! BTW thank you for reading. I'm not always this violent. Just kidding I am, ask my friends.
Prologue
~*~*~*~*~
I looked out the window. My parents weren't home. They were always at work. The new neighbors were moving in. I wonder who was going to be my new window neighbor. I hated my house. My parents were both surgeons but they decided to buy a house that was in a nice cozy neighborhood. But in that nice cozy neighborhood the houses were all bunched up. The only thing separating us was a small wall. You could see right into the window. It made me so uncomfortable. That's probably why my blinds were always closed. I could literally climb over into their house by a tree branch.
The neighbors that used to live there always put their new children in there. So there was screaming and crying all night.
Eventually they popped out so many children that they ran out of space and moved.
I caught a glimpse of a skinny woman. I'm guessing she was the mom. She looked super stressed. I didn't see anyone helping. Maybe she was by herself. No, one woman can't have that many boxes. I decided it was time to stop snooping. I'll meet them eventually.
I didn't feel like staying home. So I grabbed my jacket, phone, bag, and keys and left the house. I didn't know where I was going. I just kind of like to wander.
I had my wallet but I didn't feel like shopping. Maybe I wanted food? No. Ugh what can I do. I guess I could go to the school library and do some reading. Please don't call me a nerd. I just like to read. I got to the school and it was about 4. I grabbed a random book, snuggled up in the corner and started reading. What felt like half an hour was already two hours.
"Time to go." Said the librarian in her super annoying voice. She sounded like the file lady from Monsters Inc.
I put the book back and walked out with her. Then I realized I had forgotten my journal and my physics text book in the library. I quietly slipped away and headed towards the library.
I slipped into the library and went to the table where I left my journal. It was sitting right there and I went ahead and grabbed it. I ran to the door and tried to open it. It jolted but didn't open.
"Are you kidding me!?" I yelled throwing my journal at the wall.
I sat down in the corner and waited. Waiting waiting. Then suddenly I heard voices. Maybe it was the janitor. Or maybe it was a teacher who forgot something.
Suddenly I heard a loud shatter. Damn I didn't think about intruders. I slowly looked around the corner. Five well built guys all in black and black masks on. Just my luck. The one night I get stuck in the school someone breaks in. I heard one of the guys talk.
"Well dig in boys." He said. The four remaining boys started smashing things like there was no tomorrow. For me I'm pretty sure there was no tomorrow. Because when they found me who knows what they'll do. Maybe suffocate me. Or kill me and then throw me into the dumpster. Or even drown me in the lake. I looked around the corner once more. Now was the time. All of their backs were turned. The only way of getting out of here was to make a run for it.
Ready. Set...
Then suddenly my journal dropped with a loud thunk. They all turned my way. Well I guess this means go. I ran around the hallway and up the stairs. I could hear footsteps behind me. I turned as many corners as possible. I felt like I was starting to loose them. I used all of my last energy to run. And somehow I ended up back at the broken window. I started to run when suddenly someone grabbed my arm. I started squirming
"Let me go!" I shouted. Then he spoke. He was the one who I heard first. Probably the leader.
"Why so you can go report us to the cops?" He said not loosening his grasp.
I looked up at him, "No I promise I won't tell. Just please. let. me. go."
He let go. I looked at him in shock. Then I took the opportunity to run for it I jumped out of the window. I ran as fast as my short, little legs could take me.

Ryder's P.O.V
I watched the girl run out of the school in fear. Poor girl we probably scared the crap out of her.
"Where did she go?!" Yelled Hunter.
"She got away." I lied
"But she's going to tell!" Hunter answered in frustration.
Jared, Jordan, and Leo ran over.
"She won't tell" I said carelessly.
"How do you know?" Leo asked.
"Just cuz." I answered.
"Now who's got the book." I asked.
Jordan brought it over and handed it to me.
I opened it up. Ahh princess has a name. Bailey. Bailey Stevens. Well Bailey. Let's get to know you.
Then I started flipping through her book.
*~*~*~*~*~*
