I was losing grip of who I was. I didn’t know anymore. Most people saw me as the cocky ‘leader’ of our little group, as a school skipping, party hard girl. As a bad girl. But that wasn’t really the truth; yes, I can come off cocky, sarcastic even mean, but I’m really not. A girl nowadays can’t have their own opinon and turn a guy down without being a bitch. The thing was, even though I repetedly turned most of the guys down at my school, they didn’t give up. This particulary bothered Bella, who probably was the easiest girl I knew, play the cards right and she’s yours. She is craving boys’ attention. Anyway, I wasn’t playing ‘hard to get’ but none of the ‘popular’ boys interested me. At all. Some girls at my school was even afraid of me, even though I’d never uttered a word to them. I was never the one to pick a fight, but if you come bitching at me, it’s fucking on. 

There was this one place though, where I could totally be myself, and nobody could prejudice me. Twitter. And Tumblr. When I start hanging out there, suddenly a party with drunk and horny teenagers didn’t appeal to me as much anymore. I had this one friend at my twitter, Louise and I truly wished she was by my side in school, problem was, she lived in Sweden, 1234567689 miles away. And I’m not gonna lie, I stalked the Janoskians, the group of which Jai was in, preeeetty much. How awkward if they ever knew.

It was wednesday. We were sitting in the cafeteria when I was brought back harshly in to reality from my wondering thoughts when Kaitlyn suddenly addressed me. 

‘Alex, can you hear me?’ she waved her hand before my eyes.

‘Cut the crap Kate, I’m listening’

‘We were talking about the party Mike is throwing’ I cast her and exasperating look, Mike was my ex, and I did NOT want to go to his party. Before I could answer she said ‘Well, it’s going to be a huuuge party, you don’t have to talk to him! Anyways, Mike’s friends with Beau you know, so his little brothers might come.’ They all eyed me with smirks on their faces. I could feel me cheeks heating up, and I quickly looked down to my plate of food. 

‘Why would I care if they come?’ I said. ‘Stop looking at me like that!’ I flared up. The smiles on their faces faded. I rose up, grabbed my almost untouched food and marched away. When my anger had faded, I kind of regretted my outburst. Oh well. I grabbed my iPhone and texted Kate. alright I’m coming, sorry for getting pissed lol. tell alice to meet me at our lockers. alex xx

As I walked down the corridor, a group of guys were emerging.

The blonde tall one, Jake, called at me.

‘Hey Alex, coming to Mike’s party?’

‘As a matter of fact I am’ I said coolly, but with a hint of a smile on my lips.

‘Good to know at least one hot girl is coming’ he said simling, what he thought, flirtily. The other guys laughed.

‘Fuck off, Jake.’

‘See you around, Evans’

‘Hopefully not’ I retorted, rolling my eyes.

I walked further along the corner when I heard Jake’s gang harrassing someone.

‘What’s up, faggot?’ yelled Chris, he played soccer with Jake.

‘Wanna lick Jake’s ass? I dare you.’ The boys bellowed with laughter.

‘Hope mummy’s proud of you, acting like a fool in front of the whole town’ said another guy which name I didn’t know.

Jai said nothing, he merely tried ignoring them and walking by, but they blocked his way.

‘Not so fast, pretty boy,’ said Jake. ‘you stop fucking acting like you’re some kind of celebrity, ey? You’re just a bunch of hopeless fuckers acting like dickheads.’

I lost it. I walked fast and furiously towards the group, and pushed Jake harshly away from Jai and stood facing him. As he was caught off guard he did nothing but just stand there aghast looking at me.

‘You fucking leave him ALONE!’ I shouted through gritted teeth. ‘You’re just a bunch of jealous, coward fuckers, nine against one, that’s fair right? You disgust me.’

‘Woah, calm down Lex, we were jus- what do you mean jealous? Of him?’ He smirked at Jai looking superior.

‘Yes, of him. He’s got hundred thousands of girls wanting to fuck him while you couldn’t even get your ex girlfriend to bed.’ This was a strike literally below his belt. Kate told me Jennifer, his ex refused to have sex with him. Jake just looked flabbergasted, and so did Jai. he eyed me like he never really seen me before. 

Chris recovered the fastet. ‘Well, watch it dickhead, next time your girlfriend won’t be able to save your sorry little ass.’ He grabbed Jake, and the boys left, leaving me and Jai in an awkward silence.

‘Well, er.. thanks, really.. Alexandra’ Jai said in a hushed voice eyeing his shoes.

‘Call me Alex’ I said. ‘See you around’ I smiled and walked away. The smile faded from my face. I could’ve hit myself. My first ever decent conversation with Jai, and I just walked away.
