~y/n pov~
i was never really the popular one in school. i mean, yeahiI was best friends with aspen, who's the head captain of the cheer leading team, and zach, the jock who had girls drooling all over him, calling him things like 'daddy' and 'future husband'. they were the hottest people in the school, while i was known as the D.U.F.F.
aspen tells me i'm not the D.U.F.F., and that i'm also one the hottest girls in school, but i never believed her. i always wore oversized sweaters with leggings and uggs, and tied my hair up into a messy bun with no makeup on. i found no point in wearing makeup, since it takes up so much time.
i was walking to my locker when i saw the so-called 'cutest couple' aka jake paul and erika costell making out, right in front of my locker. i let out a frustrated sigh and start walking towards them. i clear my throat, and erika gave me an irritated look.
"i know you guys love spending time with each other all of the fucking time, which is kind of annoying, but please, go make babies anywhere other than in front of my locker. thank you for your time," i say while pushing them off. i grab my stuff from my locker and start heading towards the door.
"hey! y/n! You still like zach right?" tessa yelled out. i guess she met up with her whole "gucci" gang (a/n: yuh yuh yuh-corbyn besson's wise words). i've had the biggest crush on zach ever since we first met, but i just didn't want to tell him because i knew he wouldn't feel the same way. the whole group runs up to me and circles around me, like a group of vultures. one of the spanish twins yanked my backpack off of me, causing me to fall into chance. they started pushing me around, punching and slapping me in the process.
"you think zach likes you? zach will never like you back. you're just and ugly, petty piece of shit who will never be loved," jake yelled out. they unzipped my backpack, and poured everything out of it. thankfully i had my phone and earbuds in my back pocket. then they all ran away, laughing their asses off, leaving me in the rain. i ran home and found aspen and zach inside.
i always left the key under the mat, just in case they got home before i did. they turned into my direction and immediately guided me to the couch. aspen went to get the first aid kit and some ice cream, while zach helped me change out of my clothes and put me into his sweatshirt and one of my shorts. when he went out to put the clothes in the dryer, i started to break down into tears.
their words never affected me until today, and i don't know why. i guess because i actually think that i'm not good enough for zach, and i'm not pretty enough to be seen with him publicly. but i guess i was thinking out loud because he came back in the room, engulfing me into a big, yet gentle hug.
"y/n, you are not ugly, whatsoever. you're the most beautiful girl i have ever laid my eyes on. whatever they said was complete bullshit, and i have always had a crush on you. in fact, i love you so much y/n. will you be my girlfriend?" he asked while stroking my hair to calm my sobs.
i look up at him and connect my lips to his. our lips moved in sync, the kiss being full of passion and love. i pull back and lay on his chest, hugging him.
"yes, i'll be your girlfriend, zach," i say with a big smile on my face. we go back downstairs with our fingers intertwined, and cuddled the night away until we fell asleep happily into each others arms.
