~~~~UNEDITED~~~~

Moved again. Ugh. My dad and I could never stay in the same town for more than a year... It was his work he would say, and it’s for the best. I was promised that we would stay here for a couple of years. At least I hoped so. I was going to be late for school, and I refused on talking to my father.

Of course, my over protective dad wouldn’t let me go on the bus like a normal 11th grade girl...no... I was daddy's little girl. I guess that’s what you get when your mom dies when you are young and you're your father's only child.

I got into the car, hoping I could possibly drive myself if my dad didn’t show up. I really didn’t want to have left my friends at my old school. I didn’t want to go to this school. I really thought that I wouldn’t have to move again. That was the last time I moved. Now, nothing would surprise me. I grabbed my school bag off the backseat. When I turned around I saw my dad's body sitting in the driver’s seat. That sneak, he got in the car so quietly!

I couldn’t help resenting him for his sneakiness. He needed it though. If I would have seen him coming I would have locked the doors and driven myself to school. I have my license, so there is no reason why I can’t drive. But I guess that’s just another thing my dad prevents me from doing.

"Hey," my dad said. I just gave him a glare. Now yes, my father is rich but I am NOT a snobby rich girl. "What? Are you still mad at me?" I shook my head yes in responds to his question.

"Well, you can't have everything you want, sweetheart."

"So I can't have a normal life like all the other kids, dad?" I asked, forgetting that I didn’t want to be talking to him, "Every other normal kid gets to start their first day being a junior on the bus or at least driving themselves to school. It’s bad enough that I don’t have any friends since we ‘had to move’. I wouldn’t have gotten my license if I knew I wasn’t going to be able to drive." I retaliated back.

My dad went to say something, but he could tell that anything he would tell me would do no good. It was an extremely awkward ride there. Thank God the school was close because otherwise, I would have had to suffer longer. I got out of the car, flipped my straight, medium brown hair at him implying my anger. I walked into school and down the halls, and if people weren’t already staring they were staring now. Staring and whispering. I heard some group of girls, clearly the nerdy ones, saying ‘Wow, what a skank,” I laughed when I heard this. Every guy in the whole school was checking me out. And I knew it too. I didn’t need to be told that I was drop dead gorgeous.

I checked my schedule from my agenda and went straight to first period, just concerned on getting there and less concerned of all the eyes staring at me as I got there. When I walked in, I felt every pair of eyes look at me. I tried to find the hottest boy to sit next to, one that if I showed my friends from Milham they would so be jealous. I took a seat next to some random kid, one that was decently hot. Sitting there, I felt his eyes on me. I put my hand in my hair and tried to act like I didn't see his constant staring. You would think that I would have become used to people’s stares, but I don’t think one can ever be immune to such awkwardness. I didn’t know what to say, or if to say anything, but I didn’t have to think long.

"Hey," the boy said.

"Hey,"

"I'm Mason." he said. He gave me a look when he saw I didn't answer.

"I'm Alex," I said very proudly, used to talking to boys. I’m not sure why, but I felt sudden butterflies and a little bit uncomfortable, so I turned away and acted busy with my agenda. He just looked me over a couple times when he thought I wasn’t looking.

The teacher just droned on about the rules in her class, and her expectations for all of us. Teachers just don’t get that we hear this every year; it’s not going to change anything for anyone.

The bell rang though, which was a full relief. I hated not being able to talk to hot boys sitting next to me because of a teacher’s stupid lecture. I watched as he walked away, going to meet some of his other friends...

I just want everyone to know that all of the chapters are going to be short. That is just how I want this story to go, so please don't comment about it. Because of the short chapters I might update two to three chapters at a time.
