I walk to school alone. It's a 1/2 mile walk to school, and even though my mother has a perfectly good car, she won't take me. She won't go anywhere, for that matter.
Once my dad died, my mom spirled out of control and fell into deep depression. All she does is lay in her room and watch Wheel of Fortune. I can sometimes here her faint footsteps walk across the house for food late at night.
"Hey, loser!" I hear someone say, then feel something hit the back of my head. A apple. Really? Who throws an apple?
"Ugghh.." I groan, and look for the person who did it. I then spot a red convertibe. There's two guys in the front and three girls in the back. I know who that is.
Casey McDonland.
She's the richest, most-popular girl in school. She's untouchable. Even teacher's keep away from her. She's nasty. Her and her little crew get whatever they want.
I keep walking and ignore them. They usually give up.
"You're a freak, Astrid!" She screams, and they speed down the row, sending gravel my way.
That's me. Astrid Rose Smith. The freak. Spaz. Geek. Nerd, whatever you want to call it. I'm 5'7 and 16 years old. I have blue eyes, and brown, straight hair. The worst body imaginable. Yes, you could say my legs are perfect, but my boobs have yet to grow in. My trunk doesnt have much junk either. The only thing i like about myself is my eyes, actually. They stand out.
"Uh!" I say as gravel hits me, stinging my skin. I wipe myself off and continue to school.
Right then, i feel my phone ring. I take it out to see that my best friend, Aspen, is calling me.
Aspen is gorgeous. She has long, wavy, dark brown hair, with peircing brown eyes to match. Her body is fantastic. I'm not gay or anything, but it's nice. She has much more featured than me. I guess oppisites attract.
"Hey Aspen." I say.
"Oh my God! You WILL NOT guess what i got! GUESS!" She squealed, and i winced, holding the phone away from my ear.
"Um. A puppy." I said, and Aspen let out another screech.
"No! I got.. wait for it.. ONE DIRECTION TICKETS AND BACKSTAGE PASSES!" She screamed and i could practically see everyone turning around, giving her awkward stares.
"Cool." I said. I don't love One Direction. I like it, and i don't hate or anything, but i just don't see any reason to freak out over them. They're overblown popstars to stuck up to care.
"Yeah cool! The best part is.. You're going with me!" She said and i laughed.
"Aspen! Why?" I groaned and i heard her sigh.
"You're going to get you some boys. The boys are smokin' hot!" She said crazily
"Yeah, and they'll definatly go for me!" I said sarcastically.
"You're beautiful! Of course they will!" She said, and i laughed
"Yeah, right." I said.
"You're going." She commanded and hung up the phone.
Well now i have to go. When Aspen puts her mind to something, she does it. Trust me. She's going to bring me to the concert even if she has to drag me there. She probably will.
I sigh and put my phone up. I just arrived at school, and i see Aspen there, waiting for me
"Hey doll!" She said and i knew what she was doing.
"So, when is this concert?" I asked.
"Tomorrow at 8:00." She said, smiling.
"I have nothing to wear." I said, making up an excuse.
"I have a dress i picked out, expecially for you!" She said, poking my nose.
"Yipee!" I say, mimiking her actions. She frowns.
"Atleast be a little cheery." She said.
"Sorry, it's just i didnt get any sleep." I said. I have insomnia. It keeps you awake all night.
"Okay. Let me tell you about them." She started and i groaned.
This is going to be a long day.
