Falling for the Stars

Chapter 2: Dreams come true.... or not

They say good shoes takes you to good places.

Scratch that and curse the person who said that. Shoes does not take you to good places it takes you to hell! I've only walked half way to Static cafe and bar when my feet started to hurt. I should've listened to Hailey and took a cab. It's because you don't want to spend money!My brain scolded me. Yep, you guessed it right I'm money concious. I don't like spending money on unecessary things.

I dragged my heels on the pavement. 'You're almost there Shley! Don't give up, do it for love! '. I walked faster. After what seemed like a Billion years, I finally reached the entrance of Static. 'Thank Goodness' . Geesh. I look like a dead squirrel from all that walking and heel-dragging. I checked myself on my compact mirror. My hair's a little messy and my make-up is a little faded but nonetheless it still made me look pretty. I fixed my hair and applied some lipgloss Hailey gave me. Thank heavens I managed to put lipgloss just fine. I straightened out my Skirt and plastered a smile on my face. The dragons in my stomach are breathing fire. I'm so nervous.

I walked inside slowly. I scanned my eyes inside the room. I can't see Bryce anywhere.

"Where is he?" I said to myself.

'maybe he bailed on you'

My negative side kicked in. I pushed away the thoughts and continued to scan the room full of people.

"Hey Shley! Over here!" A guy's voice called me from behind. I spun around only to bump in a guy's chest. I rubbed my hurt forehead while the guy chuckled. I was shocked when I saw who it was. It was none other than Nate Daniels. One of the popoular jocks in school. He was the captain of the soccer team. He's popular so how does he know my name? And why is he calling me? I stared at him in awe. He's handsome. With his blonde hair and blue eyes.

"W-were you c-calling me?" I said, pointing fingers at myself.

"Yes you" Nate chuckled and approached me. He placed his hands on both sides of my shoulders and guided me towards the private room. 

"Whe-where are you taking me? I'm here to meet Bryce." I said .

"Don't worry. Bryce told me to look out for you. He's not here yet. Just go with me."

He winked and continued on dragging me towards the room. I was shocked when I saw all the popular crowd inside the room. Shock is an understatement of what I'm feeling right now. I'm beyond shock. I felt like a mice when all of them paused and looked at me. Some of them returned to their conversation while some of the cheerleaders glared at me. Well, what would I expect? Them giving me warm hugs and kiss on the cheeks? Dream on Shley!

The VIPs of the school were there. There was Scarlet Johannsen, The cheercaptain, who was talking to Steven Andrews who was the quaterback of the football team.  There was also Danielle Powell, who I personally think was the schoolwide Bitch of Woodside, she is the queenbee of the school and the leader of her other three minions who were Anna, Terry and Layla. They were notorious for bullying those who were an eyesore for them. Almost all of the guys in Woodside love them. Well if you prefer fake boobies and overdressed girls I think you'll really love them. There were the twins Henry and Meg. They are what you call the geniuses of the school. Usually nerds were on the last ladder of the social heirarchy but who would dare bully the son and daughter of Gordon Hoffman, the most influential senator of the United States? Yep, No one. Sitting alone in the corner was Colleen Taylor, the most beautiful girl of Woodside. She's the Daughter of Anne Tayor a socialite and Don Taylor a buisness tycoon. I like her because she's so graceful,sophisticated,pretty and regal. She's almost like a princess and I hope someday I could be like her.
