Shay brushed her hair and sighed as she looked at herself in the mirror. She touched the pendant of her necklace fiddling with the round locket.
"I dont wanna go go school today" Shay thought. Recently her school life has become quite eventful. John Box the schools star had taken a liking to her.
She could only hope if was more than just to abuse her skills in physics. Or because her dad was the teacher.
Though she was excited about all of this, as well as the popularity that John was bringing her, it did come with its own set of problems.
Mostly being in increase of pranks most girls at the school would pull on her. Like paint in her locker rigged to dump out on her when opened. Or glue in her white out ink, even a tack in her chair.
Last week the girls had left her in the locker room showers and stole her towel she was stranded until the gym teacher returned.
Shay sighed heavily and gave her locket a squeeze. "We can do this" she murmured. Getting up she swung her backpack over her shoulder and went down stairs.
Donald her father, greated her with a kiss on the cheek, reeking of black coffee. "Good morning pumpkin. Ready for school today?" He asked. Her father was always overzealous about academia, she could hardly agree. After all he was the only reason she was good at Math and just because she was good at it didn't mean Shay enjoyed it.
"Dad, no ones ever excited for school. No one but you." Said Shay following him to the car.
In the halls Shay headed for her locker, eyes and ears open for the next prankster to strike.
"Did you hear some old farmer died last night. They found some strange ghost kid in thevhouse" a boy named Zane said. He stood around with John and two others from the schools basketball team.
"No stupid, ghosts arent real, the kid just never saw the sun. But i bet he killed the old man" said Mitch.
"Yeah well hopefully he don't end up with us" John said. His eyes flickered up and landed on Shay. He waved her over.
"Hey there beatiful" John said flashing her a flirtatious smile and brushing back his hair. Shay smiled a bit bashful, she couldn't get to it. John Box was actually talking to her, flirting with her, and called her beautiful.
No.way.
"Way" Shay thought.
"What are you boys carrying on about, you gossip like a bunch of women" she said playfully.
