                                                                         Short Prologue

It's not easy being the unoticable nerd. Everyone thinks us nerds just stay in shadows and dark corners, dared to never be found. I stepped around the corner and BOOM! I got noticed for bumping into Francisco, the school's hottest boy. Every girl has a major crush on him. Well except me, in fact. Lets get to my life now.

"Alison! It's time to get up!" My little brother Cole screeched, jumping on my bed. I groaned and threw my pillow at his body. "Ouch!" He moaned climbing off my bed. I laughed and slowly and tiredly got out of bed. I little brother slapped my hand lightly as he ran out of my bedroom, giggling. I laughed again and walked down stairs. "Morning dad." I said as I put toast in the toaster. "Morning, Sweetie." I pulled my toast out of the toaster and placed the toast on a plate. "Ali, I have something to tell you and Cole." Cole jumped up from his chair and ran over next to me. "What, is mommy coming back home?" My dad frowned. "I'm afraid not, kiddo." My little brother's lip quivered. "Awww!" I rubbed his hand.

"So, keep going." I said, listening more carefully to my dad now. "I'm getting transfered over to Iraq this evening." Cole and I's mouth dropped. I dropped my plate with my toast, and stood in utter shock as my plate crashed to the ground and shattered itno hundreds of tiny pieces. My dad and Cole jump in such shock. I opened my mouth. "So you're just going to leave Cole and I here alone, and not even bother telling us this until now?!" I was so mad. I felt tears trickle down my face. "Aliso-" I turned around and ran upstairs to my room. I slammed my door behind me and slid down the door. I pulled my hair real hard and screamed in my mouth.

Time ticked on, and it was 7:30. Great. I was going to be late to school. I put my glasses on and pulled my hair into a bun. I put on a long sleeve grey baggy shirt and some camoflauge jeans that only went just a tad bit above my ankes. I put on my very old tennis shoes. I qucikly brushed my teeth and ran down the stairs, fast enough so my dad couldn't catch me. I escaped outside and saw that it was poring down rain. I groaned and ran through the rain all the way to school. I arrived to the double doors and checked my watch. 7:54. I was drenched from head to toe in water. I walked into the school and kept my head low.

I rounded a corner quickly, and flew into another body. This body was warm and seemed, gentle. I slammed to the ground, hitting the ground face first. I heard the laughter of kids who pointed their fingers at me and called me a geek and nerd. I zoned out, blocking the voices out of my head. "Are you okay?" I heard a really sweet voice ask. I slowly opened my eyes and looked up at THE Francisco, hottest boy in the entire school. Right then and there I just wanted to die. "Uh-uh..I-Um..I-" I stuttered sounding like a speechless idiot. His hand took my hand and he gentley pulled me up. I just wanted to collapse in his arms and tell him everything.

That would be just too weird though. For one, I don't know him, and for two, he doesn't know me. "Thanks I'm fine." I said quietly. "Hey! You're the nerd girl Alison." I groaned. "Gee thanks.." I said looking away from him. Everyone was still laughing at me. I felt tears coming on. I turned to go past Francisoc. He held me back. "Wait, are you-" I pushed past him and ran off to the girls bathroom. Well great. Mr. Hottie just saw me crying. I looked at my watch after i got done with my tears. 7:23. Crap Crap Crap. I was really late. I slowly opened the door to my Math class. My teacher was grading test, so I quietly slipped past him. "Ms. Hastings." I froze.

I slowly turned and my teacher looked up at me. "Want to explain to me why you're a half an hour late?" My face went red. I had never been in trouble before, and now I got it.
Uh..I.. I was in the nurse's office. Yeah! I was just..umm dropping off my new medicine. My teacher nodded his head. "Okay. Now you may please take your seat." I walked to my seat, ignoring the snickers and name calling. I took out my math book and flipped to the page that was written on the board. I got out a piece of notebook paper and wrote imformation on the piece of paper, that I thought would be good imformation to remember later on in the semester.

The bell finally rung for our free period. I decided to go to the library so I could study for an upcoming test. I walked into the library and spotted Francisco. I basically jumped out of my shoes. I quickly ran over to a bookshelf to hide from him. I heard voices from the otherside of the bookshelf. "Wow dude. I can't believe you just talked to a major nerd." I frowned. "Well that hurt." I said silently to myself. "Oh come on dude, she's not that bad." Well that was nice. I leaned in closer to the shelf to listen more closely. My elbow hit a book and it fell off the shelf. The voices stopped. "Crap!" I whisper screamed to myself. I hid so no one could see me. "Were you eavesdropping?"

Again, I practically almost high tailed out of my shoes. "Uhhh..I...I..was..I'm just gonna go." I said quickly running out of the library. Well now that was a nice free period. Now he probably thinks I'm like a total creeper/stalker person now. Just great.

Francisco's P.O.V

"Truth or dare?" My best friend Eli asked. "Dare." I said smirkingly. "I dare you to tell Chris you're breaking up with her." I rolled my eyes. I stood up from the table and walked over to where my girlfriend, Chris was sitting with her "Possy" group. "Oh hey baby!" Chris exclaimed hugging me. "What's wrong?" She asked when I didn't reply. "Chris, I'm breaking up with you." I heard Eli and Alex start laughing. Chris's eyes widened. I smirked and started laughing. "Oh c'mon babe! It was just a dare, okay?" I said turning her around as she started to storm off. "Don't touch me! We're through because of what you just did!" Chris ran out of the cafeteria. I just stood in utter shock.

"Now I dare you to get another girlfriend. I prefer nerd. And fix her up. Then dump her." Eli said patting my shoulder. "Deal." I said sighing. I walked off with my friends to our first class. I rounded a corner, and someone bumped into me and went flying onto the ground. I felt bad because the thud was pretty loud. "Are you okay?" I asked. The girl stuttered something I couldn't make out quite clearly. I put my hand in hers and pulled her up off the ground. "I'm fine." She said. "Oh hey! You're the nerd girl Alison!" Real nice, Fran. Just nice. "Gee thanks.." She muttered under her breath. She turned away from me, and a few seconds later turned back towards me. She started to run, but I held her back.

I saw tears coming out of her eyes. "Hey are you-" Before I could say anything else, she ran down the hall and into the girls bathroom. Everyone in the halls were laughing. I cursed at myself in my head for hurting a girl like that. I honestly really could've cared less, but this time was different. I hurt a girl and made her cry. I felt really bad. I walked to my History class and girls smiled at me and took pictures of me like I was a baby bunny or something. I smirked, because I enjoyed this attention. But sometimes I really don't enjoy it. I walked into my class and took a seat in the back, away from the fan girls and by my other friends.

The bell rung and it was my free period. I walked out of the classroom and decided to go to the library to get a book to study for a test. I saw Eli and walked over to him. "Hey bro." He said greeting me with a high five. "Hey." I said back. "I can't believe you made a girl cry earlier." My ears purked up. "You heard about that?" I asked. "Yeah. Word travels fast when hot boy colides with a hot nerd." My mouth dropped with shock. "Well she's not that bad." A book fell off the shelf, and Eli and I stopped talking. I heard someone whisper scream to themself. I went around the shelf and saw the girl I bumped into. "Are you eavesdropping?" I asked.

She stuttered again and then ran out of the library as fast as she could. I turned to Eli who was smiling. "Well dude, you found your girl." My eyes widened. "Wait..you mean I have to make her popular and make her feel special, and then just dump her? No way! I've already hurt her once." Eli rolled his eyes. "Please!" He kept begging. I sighed. "Fine."
