Change My Life

POV - Travis

"You're pathetic. Fuck off Adams. I'm just your project partner." She scoffs.

"That's almost as bad as being called your next fling to play with. In which I will be called if any more people see you with me. And to think that one person actually cared about me in this school. I'm not Sarah and yes she's a bitch, but you're just like her. So go on, run off and tell all your friends about how you caught me, the loser Amelia crying because someone destroyed her car. It'll give this dull school some new drama to talk about instead of 'oh the crazy psycho bitch who murdered her parents is back'." She finishes, leaving me speechless.

She has her finger poked into my chest, but when she realises she steps back.

What am I suppose to say to that?

I blink a few times as I was staring into her eyes for the whole time she was speaking.

Before I can make up some lame excuse as to why I lied about being seen with her, she quickly turns around and walks out the school.

Boy does she have killer legs.

Okay I'm getting off topic but what can I say? I'm a guy. Not that all guys are attracted to girls and girls can be attracted to girls too.

But man do I feel bad. She gets enough shit from Sarah already and I had to talk about her to Kye like that right in front of her.

I genuinely want to be friends with Carter but she's so hard to talk to. She shuts me out and always has snarky comebacks.

In seventh grade, I remember she had a major crush on me and Sarah made that very clear after her parents died and before Carter had become a mess.

I was stoked that Carter liked me because I was kinda digging her as well. But when the rumours came out that she killed her own parents, she left school which made the rumours seem even more true. It spread fast.

I couldn't risk my reputation by talking to a girl who possibly murdered her own parents.

I know that's such a dick move but she wasn't at school any way for me to talk to her.

When she came back to ClearView High this year after 4 years, she looked better than ever. Her brown hair grew longer, her killer body got a bit tan but was still quite pale.

But she had no friends and she looked like she'd seen better days. I couldn't blame her though, she lost her parents and no normal human being would be able to cope with that.

All the girls called her a freak and a psycho bitch but I reckon they were just jealous that she's so pretty and came back even prettier without trying to.

She comes to school with no makeup, dark eye bags under her big blue eyes that I got lost into before when she was roasting the shit out of me. And she still looks effortlessly beautiful.

I've only talked to her a few times and I'm already whipped. The way she rejects me just makes me want her even more. I groan to myself, how do I get myself out of this mess? How can I even talk to her again after that?
I get in my car and go home.

School today went by pretty fast. It's now last period and I'm in the boys lockers. All the guys found out that I was with Carter yesterday.

"Yo, how was chilling with the freak?" Aaron shouts so the whole team could hear.
They all erupt in laughter and this angers me.

"Shut the fuck up Aaron, at least I'm getting bitches," I say taking off my soccer uniform to change back into my school uniform.

"Oi, she's pretty hot though. Freaky on the outside, probably freaky in bed as well," Kye says next to me, hitting me on the back lightly.
"I gotchu," he says loud enough for only me to hear.
