My life couldn't get any worse right now, but it did. I woke up this morning, doing my usual morning routines, which are kind of out of the ordinary and not to mention really embarrassing. I was prancing around my room, combing my hair, when my probably soon to be and extremely popular step-brother got to watch the whole show. Me dancing in my underwear, singing 'Oops!...I did it again" into my brush. When I heard him snicker, I felt my hold world fall apart. I slowly turned around to look at him, my face red with embarrassment, shame, and anger. While his face held a giant smirk.

"I didn't know you were so talented?" Talon teased, leaning against my door frame.

"Talon! Get out of here you moron! I still need to get dressed" I shouted, while pushing him out the door. I tried to slam the door but his foot caught it. Damn you and your feet!

"Well hurry up, we don't have all day now" he replied as I tried to shut the door. I heard footsteps descend down the stairs and I ran to hurry up and finish my routine. My life flashed before my eyes as I saw the most horrifying thing. A spider. I knew it was to late to call for help, so I did what every other girl would do. I screamed. But after what felt like hours of screaming no one came to my rescue, I had to battle beast myself. I threw almost anything I could get my hands on at the hairy eight legged monster. I think I killed it, but I didn't have time for victor, I had school.

Flying down the stairs I knocked into Talon once more. "Finally, lets go" Talon grabbed my arm, pulling me towards the door.

"But I haven't eaten breakfast" I whined.  

He gave me a pointed look. "Well you should have thought of that while you were taking your time in you dressing room, Ms. Spears" he sarcastically replied.  

"Talon, let her eat her breakfast" Ms. Clark, Talon's mom, scold him.

He sighed, "Fine but she has to eat in the car. We're going to be late if she doesn't."

"Okay, geez let me just grab some Cheerios" I huffed. "Bye Ms. Clark and thank you for trying to raise a proper son, I don't know what went wrong with him" Ms. Clark laughed and Talon sent me a glare.

"Bye kids, and Maple honey your dad will be home tonight" she informed me. I gave her a quick nod before Talon grabbed my arm.

Once in the car we made our way to school, in silence. I knew Talon was mad at me, he hated being late but I couldn't help it. The spider really slowed me down and for all I knew it could very much still be alive. After speeding down the road we finally arrived at school. Talon parked and slammed his door, walking to the front of the school. We're not even late he doesn't have to be a jerk. I hopped out of his car and ran after him. But of course with my luck I trip and instead of getting up I just laid there. If I was in some romantic movie right now, the leading guy would pick me up by the hand and smile at me. Then my heart would swell and we would have a passionate kiss, but it wasn't a movie, it was real life.

  I glanced up and saw all the snickering faces, and instead of hiding I got up and walked threw the school doors with confidence. Well I would have if I didn't get smacked in the face with a football. The force knocked me down.

"Holy cow, that hurt" I groaned rubbing the throbbing head. As I opened my eyes the sun was blocked by a giant figure. And that figure happened to belong to James Matthews. The John Tucker of our school.

"Shit. Hey are you all right?" Mr. playboy extended his hand to me. "Here let me help you up." He must have been really strong, because he had no problem helping me up. Placing his firm hands on my shoulders he examined my body... a bit too much. I winced as he lightly touched my forehead. "Yeah that's going to bruise" he voice holding concern.

I gave him a lopsided smile. "Don't worry, I'll just tell everyone I got in a fight with a UFC fighter."

He chuckled at this. "Well that would work, but everyone just saw what happened" he said smirking at my opened mouthed face.

I looked around at my fellow peers to find the watching the whole scene. Great.  "You know I'll just cover it up with makeup."

"Yeah much better plan" he laughed. "Here let me get that for you" he bent down to pick up my scattered books, I went down to help him.

I noticed not all the things were mine, which I assumed was his. "And here you go" he handed my supplies while I did the same. "Thanks" we both replied.

"Well I'll see you around" he said and turned around to head into school. Averting my eyes from his back, I glanced down and noticed a small notebook. Reaching down I glanced inside to the first page to see who it belong to. This journal belongs to James S. Matthews.

"Hey I think this...belongs to you" I glanced up and noticed it was too late. I held in my position James Matthews diary, and then an evil smile was placed on my face.
