Grace P.o.v

I can't keep living like this...

"What is it that you want to be in life?" Was the first thing that came out of Mr.bakers mouth. He was studying us like a book, waiting for answers. All hour he blabbed about pointless bullshit. I knew everything there was about life. I may not have experienced it all. Hell I barely had my first kiss, And I'm 18.. I waited patiently for others to go. I will not spend my last year of high school being the goodie two shoes everybody thinks I am.

I will change

"Watson?" I turn and star at him. Everybody's eyes were on me. Great! The first day and I'm already on the spot. "What do you want to be?" I feel like crawling under a rock right about now.

The tension in the room increased and I was getting hot. "A registered nurse" I finally spoke. my fingers intwined with each other. I glance down at my desk and see that its 4 hours to go until I go home.

Gray rushes through the classroom door before Mr.baker could speak on what I said. He hands him a slip, then says something I couldn't catch. As Gray left in comes another student. His hair was messy but cute. He looked mean, no smile was on his face. He had big brown eyes that went perfect with his lips. They were so bright, wouldn't mind bitting them. "We have a new student joining us" Mr.baker didn't take his eyes off of the paper "Jessica Martinez?" Mr.baker finally looks up and smirks.

Oh he's a she? "I prefer Jesse" She pulls off her hat and put her hair in a ponytail. Everybody was looking at her in shock. We don't have any studs here, let alone any 'out' girls. I know I don't like girls, no matter how cute you are.

I start putting my things in my bag not really paying attention anymore. I heard a chair move close to mine, making my desk move a little. I turn my head and see the new girl sitting next to me. She didn't look at me, nor speak to me, did she even know I was here?

After about a minute of examining her godified face. She looks over at me and smile. "Take a picture, trust me it'll last longer" She grins then winks at me. Did she just.. you know what.. alright.

"No thanks, I've seen better" I smile then face the front. She didn't try to speak to me until

"Class dismissed"

As everybody was leaving the new girl blocks the door so I couldn't leave. Mr.baker wasn't even in here to tell her to move aside. It's lunch time and I know he's not coming back until he has to. "I'm Jesse" she stuffed her hands into her pockets as she looks down at me. She was basically hovering over me. I'm only 4'11 so there's nothing I could actually do. "You are?"

I fold my arms "Trying to get past" I try to move around her but it's like she knew my every move. It's like we're playing basketball and I'm that one player the whole team hates. "Grace" I finally say.

It was a long quiet pause. She was on her phone, STILL not letting me out. "Ok, Grace. Let me take you out" I was shocked to hear that. No one in this school ever acknowledged me.

"As sweet as that sounds, no" the look on her face was priceless. I gently touched her shoulder then walked out. It's like her body was frozen. She looked so.... I don't know. And I honestly don't care.

I rushed into the lunchroom and sat with Chrissy and Lorenzo. I didn't want to tell them the girl hit on me because I honestly didn't know. I don't know if she likes me or needed my help on something. And I'm most definitely not the type to jump to conclusions.

"Grace!" I look over and see Chrissy all in my face. She looked worried and Lorenzo was staring at his crush from afar. "Why does he have to be popular" he didn't take his eyes off of him. He likes our star baseball player. Our school is all about baseball. Me? I know nothing about it. I'm smart in every other section in life but I'm bad at sports.

Just as I got up to leave I felt something on my back. It was cold and sticky. I turn and see Jesse standing there with her eyes wide open. "Im-"

I put my hand up to her face "Don't" as I storm out the lunch room I put my hair in a high ponytail. It's her first day and shes already ruining my life. I pull off my shirt and grab some paper towel. I felt arms grab me from behind. "Let me help" I felt chills down my back. Her arms traveled from my sides to my hands. She grabbed the paper towel and started cleaning off the mess. Her hands were so soft and when her body was pressed against mine I felt.. something.

I turn and face her she had this look on her face. "I'm sorry" she leans closer to my body. Hovering over me like I was hers. My heart started to beat faster and faster. Her lips were inches from mine.. I don't know what's about to happen but I'm stuck. It's like my body glued itself to her touch. Just before she pressed her lips onto mine somebody came in. I gently pushed her and ran into the stall.

Giggles filled the bathroom just as loud as their heels were. "Oh, there you are" I know that voice. Lisa fucking Jetson. She gets what she wants when she wants it. I hate that. "I didn't expect to see you here, where's the loser?" I knew she was talking about me. Loser? Tst! I'm not a loser. "So.. are you still coming over tonight?" I shot my head towards the doors crack.

Lisa's hands were wrapped around Jesses neck. They were looking deeply into each other's eyes. Jesse bit her lip as she shook her head yes.

How stupid am I? I was LITERALLY about to let that Ass face kiss me. And I'm not even into women! You know what? Fuck this! I open my stall and push past them to get my shirt. It was wet still and all I wanted to do is go home.

As I left the bathroom I didn't bother looking at Jesse. She was to busy kissing the leprechaun. Lisa has bright orange hair, light skin and freckles. She's part Irish. I swear it's the luck she has.

I didn't rush out the class, it was last period and I know my sister isn't here. My older sister is never on time. Ever since I moved in with her I always sit and wait for about 30 minutes before she actually comes. She's a play boy model so I barely see her. I'm not mad about it though, I always have the house to myself.

HONK!! Snapping back to reality I realized that's Christina's mom honking at me. Chrissy is my best friend, has been since I moved into the same block as her. "Want a ride home?" Chrissy shouts out the trucks window. I get into her moms old ragged out truck. We've had so many memories in this truck. My first time getting high, Chrissy even lost her virginity in here. Gross right?

Just as we pull up to the house I saw the house across the street door open. That's weird.

"Honey I'm home!" I shout as I close the door behind me. Ashley puts her finger up and tells me to shh. Her phone was pressed against her face and she didn't look to happy about the call.  After five minutes of waiting she finally hung up the phone. "Geez thanks for coming to get me today"

Her face went from angry to concern. She walked slowly towards me "Shit! I'm so sorry" she sat next to me on the couch relaxing her body. I've been here with Ashley for three years. We have a three bedroom house. Of course she has the biggest room. I love it here but sometimes... I just hate that she forgets there's a life outside of modeling. LIKE COMING TO GET ME FROM SCHOOL. "how'd you get here so fast?"

"Chrissy"

Her phone started ringing. "I have to go" she started gathering her things. She had everything but her keys. I pull her keys off of her bathroom sink and hand them to her. She flies out the door leaving it cracked.

I gently pressed my back against the door but soon got up again because I saw U-Haul trucks across the street. That house has been abandoned for almost three years. Even before we moved in there were no people in the house across the street.

I wonder who the hell moved into the house. I don't know who but I'm going to find out
