Hi. My name is Cora Velcroix and I am a 17-year-old senior in Lane Woods College High School. I am a very normal teenage girl according to usual standards. But according to standards in my school, the usual is, if you're sexually attracted to males and their hanging things, having your v-card lost to one of three gods in our school as a rite-of-passage kind of thing. As I didn't follow this behavior, I was labeled 'abnormal'. How depressing. This is my story, so let me start from the beginning.
When I decided to switch to my school's unique drama program instead of the usual diploma course, I had no idea I was walking straight into a pit of fire.
Figuratively, of course. After all, I had just returned from a year in the Pearl of the East, Hong Kong, and it's really not that easy to get back into this weird school.
Say, hypothetically, on this first day, things happen - duh - arguments start, the green monster lurks, ex-girlfriend meets whack-job ex-boyfriend's sex-crazed best friend and said best friend's other sex-crazed best friend, and it seems said whack-job ex-boyfriend is coming back to school after a two-week suspension which ends in two days. As I said, hypothetically. Should it be real, how crazy would that be?
Let's push that further.
Imagine said ex-boyfriend's best friend, Nile Logan, as this impossibly hot, sex on legs kinda guy. How would high school hormone-driven teenage girls react? Exactly. So when barely clothed girls cling onto a high school hormone-driven teenage boy, how would he react? Wham-bam, thank you, ma'am. So when girls get dumped by the dozen and still won't give up, what would he be labeled as? A player. Now add a bike, subtract the brain, then multiply by three, and you will get the three hottest guys in town. Also known as 'The Beautiful Trio'.
I know. Such creativity. But it's very accurate. I swear they belong on a cover magazine more than in a school. Even if it's a private school. To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if one of those three, or even all three of them end up as celebrities before they hit thirty. I wouldn't be surprised if they pull a Justin Bieber now, really.
Now imagine said ex-girlfriend pissed at a third of the trio, said ex-boyfriend, Connor O'Reilly, for cheating, especially now that he wants her back, Nile, breaking the bro code trying to get into her pants, making trio part three, Duncan Woods excited for a challenge and goes after her, too.
I don't think you need to imagine to know what a mess that is.
Now let's grab a bowl and a mixer and start whipping up a mess. Because that mess is a mess easier to deal with than this hell of a ride.
Enjoy! Please make sure your seatbelt is fastened and keep your arms and legs (not everything else) inside the car at all times. This will be a bumpy ride.
