Today is the worst day of the week, can you guess what day it is? If you guessed Monday, you are correct. I decide to wear a white 'you've been served' crop top, black ripped shorts and blue vans. I put a bat necklace around my neck and start to straighten my hair. After that I put a peach and white flower crown on my head and apply foundation, concealer, mascara and pink lip gloss. I grab my flowery backpack and walk downstairs. I sit in Cameron's car and he drives me to school. I was about get out of the car, when Cameron pulled me back.

"Don't let anyone bother you today, ok" He says. I nod then get out of the car.

I walk over to my best friend Hailey.

"Hey" I say. She smiles a really weird smile.

"What?" I ask, confused.

"There's something bothering you and I know it, so don't deny it" She starts "What's bothering you?" She asks.

"If I tell you, you can't tell anyone else" I start.

"Leila, we're best friends, do you really think that I'd tell everyone a secret that you tell me?" She asks. I sigh.

"Well a month ago in Magcon Florida, I was sitting in my hotel room, alone, and Matt walked in and he was drunk, and he raped me-" I was cut off by Hailey hugging me.

"I'm so sorry Leila" She whispers.

"Anyway, I found out the day after that I was pregnant" I finish, she gasps. She hugs me again and this time, I hug back.

"I'm so sorry this happened to you, Leila" She says.

"It's ok. it's not your fault, you had nothing to do with it" I say. The bell rings and so we go to our lesson, which was music. I walk into the classroom and sit in the back.

"Hello class today we will be having auditions for who will be singing in the end of school show this year" Mrs.Evans announces. Seriously an end of year show? Are you serious?

"First up we'll have..." Almost all the class has sung by now and I'm the only one that's left.

"And last of all we'll have Leila Dallas" She says as I get up from my seat.

"When you're ready Leila" She says.

"Am I asleep, am I awake or somewhere in between? I can't believe that you are here and lying next to me, or did I dream that we were perfectly entwined, like branches on a tree, or twigs on a vine
Like all those days and weeks and months I tried to steal a kiss, and all those sleepless nights and daydreams where I pictured this, I'm just the underdog who finally got the girl, and I am not ashamed to tell it to the world!
Truly, madly, deeply I am, foolishly, completely falling, and somehow you can turn my walls in, so baby say you'll always keep me, truly, madly, deeply in love with you, in love with you" I sing.

I sit back down and the bell rings, signalling that the lesson was over. I get my stuff and walk out of the room. I walk to my locker and to my surprise, Hayes was waiting there. I walk over to him and he smiles. He pulls me forward by my waist.

"You have an amazing voice baby" He whispers in my ear.

"How did you hear me singing?" I ask.

"I have my English lesson across the hall from you" He answers and I start to blush. This boy I swear will be the death of me.
