Shitty alarm, screaming at six in the morning. The fire didn't last for the night, the room's freezing. I got up from bed, look into the mirror admiring my not-so-good-looking face and checked the phone. Bunch of messages, I don't even want to read them. Today's first day of high school, but I'm not willing to start it. Junior session is over, I'm officially a newbie again for the senior grades. How nice that people think senior is a fresh start, like you wear a brand New Jersey to school, showing off and start making new friends. No, that's not the case. I, being a nerd for years, am bullied and teased by people, no matter on my appearance or character. I'm sick of these stuff, so ultimate goal for the year- be a different me.
No more glasses, no more pony tails, all these things are gone. Having a new start, I'm wearing contact lenses and make my hair in diva curls. Sounds gorgeous, but not enough. Just add a little bit of mascara, bit of lipsticks, bit of perfume, perfect way to start a new day. Hoodies and trainers? Screw them, on my way to pick up some high heels and dresses. Badass is my character for the year, and yes, I mean it.
'Mate get your ass down here I'm driving you to school!'
There's Natalie, best of the best, my childhood best friend. We promised each other that we are gonna study in the same schools together no matter what, cuz I'm gonna miss her to death if we're separated. (Sounds like I'm gay but no I'm not)
'Coming!'
The high heels are killing me, why do people even wear that?! I can't even stand properly not to mention that I can't even walk. Holy shit I walk like a crab! But no way that's not stopping me to achieve the ultimate goal of the year.
'Jasmine Riven what the hell are you wearing?!'
'Uh..clothes?'
'Where are your trainers and hoodies?! Oh my are you wearing contact lenses??'
'I just wanna change myself for a bit, I'm sick of being a nerd who's always being teased okay?!'
'Girl you've grown up!'
'Shut up and drive!'
'Yeah yeah.. but you seriously look hot in the leather jacket tho!'
'SHUT UP!'
Natalie's been supporting me like forever. She respects me, understands me, listens to me. I'm more than lucky to have met a friend like her, or else my life's gonna be super dull.
'We're here. Guess I'll catch you at lunch?'
'Yeah see ya!'
Before attending the first class I went to the cafe for a coffee. But then...
'Ahh!'
I bumped into a man, he's on his phone.
'Didn't see you there.'
I was about to shout at him but all the thoughts faded away when I looked at him. Fawn classic cropped hair, round piercing blue eyes, strong nose, finely structured body, a definition of perfection.
'Hey you there?'
'Uhhh yeah sorry I kinda zoomed out just now.'
'Whatever.'
He simply walked away, continued on his phone. What the hell! He didn't even apologise! Jerk. What a great way to start my day. Guess I'll need a double shot espresso then..
