I woke up in cold sweat. Why was I still thinking about that? We had only locked eyes for a second when I caught you staring at me during lunch yesterday. But your eyes, your piercing deep brown, almost black eyes bore deep into my soul. Now, I couldn't sleep. I glanced at my alarm clock. 3:05 am. I sighed. I would have to be up for school soon anyways. I hated school. I hated my cliche life. Popular girl, rich, pretty, and probably stuck up. But I wasn't stuck up. At least I didn't think I was. I got out of bed, my bare feet touching the cold floor, sending chills through my body. I looked at myself in the mirror. My pitch black hair stood out against my fair olive skin. Everyone said I was pretty, and from what my friends said, I was liked by the guys. My so called "friends", but that was a different story. I didn't care for the boys at my school anyways. They were all douchebags. I looked at my tired eyes, my plump lips, and my high cheekbones. Might as well get ready, I thought, running a brush through my tangled hair.
