Jessie looked down at the post in awe. River Diablo, who she vaguely knew from school, had just come out as biromantic. Jessie wished she had the confidence to come out too...
But she hadn't even come out to her parents yet, so that was out of the picture. She had seen the way that people were acting around River, and it was weird. They seemed to think she had some kind of illness or something. Even her best friends were staying well away
'Maybe I should talk to her' Jessie thought, then shuddered. No. Nonononono. NOOOO WAY. She couldn't even begin to fathom where that thought had come from. She shuddered the thought away, and clicked onto River's page.
The girl was so pretty, Jessie had been jealous of her since middle school. She came off of River's profile and scrolled down to a post that a girl from school called Shirina had posted. Jessie sighed at Shirina's profile picture. Shirina Maraday, a beautiful girl with a fiery attitude... That Jessie had been crushing on since fifth grade. A girl that would never like her back.
Jessie took a glance at her clock 7:34. CRAP She was late! She grabbed her favourite adidas trainers and coat and sprinted out the door.
Shirina walked past, looking furious, and Jessie had to duck into a shop doorway. She sprinted the rest of the way to school.
She looked in the bathroom mirror at school and sighed. Her ginger hair was a mess and there were bags under her eyes from lack of sleep. Her ugly freckles covered her face and her plain blue eyes clashed aginst her pale skin. There was no time to fix all of it, but Shirina was in her next class and she at least had to look like she hadn't just crawled out of bed.
She brushed her knotted-up hair into a high ponytail and applied a generous amount of under eye concealer, which fixed her eye bags, but made her look paler than usual.
She was proud of her outfit choice for once though: her favourite pale pink adidas hoodie, with her baby pink adidas trainers and grey leggings.
Eventually she made her way out of the bathroom and avoided all eye contact as she half-jogged to class.
