Do you believe in miracles?

At first I didn't either, but things changed. I want to tell you a story. A story about a ordinary girl who's life became anything but ordinary. The story of how one wish turned her world upside down. And the story of a choice that she made that would change her whole life. For better or worst.

And so our story begins. With Me. My name is Blossom. I'm 15 years old. Instead of being the typical skinny, beautiful, popular heroine that your use to. I'm a fat, ugly and dumb girl. I apologize for not being the character your used to. I hate to look at myself in the mirror because I know it won't fix me. I wish I could be like my sister. Beautiful, Smart and popular.The world is so unfair. If only I was beautiful too. Then maybe, just maybe I might have a chance.

I woke up late again today. Regretting that another day came. Another day to suffer through. I sigh deeply. I roll out of bed. I hit the floor with a loud thump. "Be quiet fatty". My sister shouts at me. I apologize. I got to my closet. I try in a couple of my clothes only to discover that none of them fit right. They feel like chains rather that clothes. I put on my black hoodie and black baggy pants with my black and white sneakers. I go to the bathroom and brush my teeth and wash my face. While combing out the neverending tangles in my hair I look at my hideous face. Ugly I say to my reflection. Just gross. I can't look anymore I turn away quickly.

When I go down the stairs of my house. There are loud thumps with each step I take. I take the back entrance to the kitchen. There are two kitchens at home. One for me and the other is for everyone else. After my breakfast which consisted of nothing but two crackers. I went to school. I was so hungry but I knew I had to lose this weight. No matter what. I have to lose it. When I got to school campus, the jerks that always bullied me throw trash and drinks at me. It was something I was use to. I continue walking into the school and make my usual stop to the bathroom. I tried my best the dry the soda that had be dropped on my clothes. My hair was full of crumbs and cheese. Ew. I guess this is the ordinary life of a ugly, fat and dumb girl.

I walk to class. The kids still point at me. I'm commonly known as the Don't in this school. With a loud gasp and rapid whispering start as the so call Do's of society show up. The popular beautiful and skinny people so just imagine the complete opposite of me. I lower my head in an effort to not be seen but to no avail. My daily tormentor Brick JoJo. The worst and also most handsome guy I've ever met. Smart and good looking he is the schools most sought after boy. But sadly for the not so glamorous one's at this school. He is more than willing to tell them just how repulsive we are. I made the idiotic mistake of having a crush on him. But when he found out about my feelings he....well that's not important.

"Hey Piggy"

He's usual greeting. I say Nothing. I look down at my hands.

"Didn't ya hear my bro say hi" Butch said. Butch wrapped a arm around my shoulders giving a tight squeeze. Butch being one of this two brothers. Butch was also very handsome. With wild black hair and dark green eyes that countered Bricks bright red hair and brown eyes that if the night hit just right they would shine a dominant red.

"Come on Butch stop it" said a tall tan skinned girl. Beautiful but not in a cute way but in a mature and tuff way. Sporting short Black hair and light green eyes the popular Buttercup. Both boys and girls love her for being the star on ever playing field. She asks them to stop but never really does anything but despite that I'm still thankful. The cute Bubbles who is the envy of all the girls in the school joins in the plea for them to stop but it doesn't change a thing.

I didn't look up nor did I answer.

"We're only having fun" said Brick.

The blonde boy says nothing and stares down at me in amusement. Holding the other blonde close causing her to say nothing afterwards.
