That Monday after homecoming, everyone talked about me. I'm serious! In class, everyone would talk about my interview or the accident in general.
Even teachers would say "I saw the news this morning. I'm sorry for your loss"
I didn't mind not having Ethan around, I missed him, but I made new friends like Brooke and Leslee. But the popularity grew over 3 days. Everyone wanted to hear my story in full detail and sit with me at lunch.
Over the three days I sat at 3 different tables, met at least 24 new people, and repeated my story millions of times. Time after time. It was weird.
"Hey Kenna." someone tapped on my shoulder and I realized it was Anthony, one of the football jocks and stuff.
"Yeah?" I swiveled around looking into his deep blue eyes.
"I'm having a pool party this weekend. Do you wanna come?" He asked in his deep voice. I grabbed the invitation and looked at the times. It read "5-10 Friday night at Miami Hollow water park."
I smiled and nodded. "Thanks! See you there Anthony!"
"See ya!!" He waved and continued down the hall.
"Wait!" I shouted. Anthony turned around and I jogged towards him. Although class started in one minute and it was the opposite way.
"Can my friends come?"
"Which friends? Is Ethan included?"
"No. Brooke ad Leslee."
"Sure. Only those friends though."
"Oh is Kelly coming?"
"Maybe."
"Ugh. Okay" I scoffed, rolled my eyes, and hurried down the hall to chemistry.
I wrote down, in my schedule, "Friday, pool party at Miami Hollows waterpark" Two days. Okay. I closed my binder and right then the bell rang.
*at home after boring school*
"Hey sweetie!" My dad said from the kitchen.
"Hey dad. Can I go to a pool party on Friday?"
"Course. Are Brooke and Leslee going?"
"Yep." I replied
"Okay. I trust those girls."
I started to walk to my room and start my homework. Math, chemistry, language arts and social studies. But it wasn't much for that many classes.
*1.5 hours later*
I finished my homework finally! I picked up my favorite book in the whole wide world: The Fault in our Stars. It is the best book in the WORLD! I am not even kidding. I have read it 10 times and I'm not exaggerating.
I read the clock and it was, 3:45. Again.
(A/N: hey lovely readers! Sorry for the short chapter! Book recommendation, The Fault in our Stars. It isn't on Wattpad anymore but if you want to read it but haven't go check it out. Btw/fyi it might make you cry but it isn't just about love, its about something beyond that. It is a great love story but its beyond a love story, it just is don't ask how.
QOTD: What do you think McKenna will do if/when the popularity gets to her head? Okay! Have a lovely day/ night!)
