I got into Carter's car and we were on our way to school. We reached the school and everyone stopped to stare at the two gorgeous boys and then I stepped out of the car. And tripped. And fell. Flat on my ass. Oh joy! Harris and Carter snickered but Harris picked me up and I shot them my attempt at a death glare which made them burst into laughter, so I gave them the middle finger and stomped off.

I walked into the school and met my best and only friend Alana.
"Hey Red, how you doing?"
"Hey Lana, I'm good! How have you been? How was Paris?" Alana had went to Paris to visit her grandparents over the holidays and I haven't seen her in a month. But she called and we texted constantly!
"It was good, but I missed my bestie!" Lana said and we hugged. I looked over her shoulder and saw Hannah hanging off Carter.
"So your crush on Carter still hasn't gone away huh?" Lana chuckled.
"What are you talking about? I don't have a crush on that jerk!" I shrieked.
"Yeah right!" She laughed, "I've known you for six years Red and I know when you're trying to burn a hole through someone's head. The someone here, being Hannah!" I laughed with her and Carter looked my way and saw me looking at him. I turned sharply and pulled Alana along.
"Dammit! He caught me staring Lana!"
"Calm down Red!" She said laughing, "at least now he'll know that you actually do think of him as hot, just like everyone else and you're not an ice princess as everyone thinks that you are!"
"Dude! No one thinks that I'm an ice princess!" I yelled.
"I know! I'm just kidding!" Lana laughed, "but you're the only one that doesn't drool over Carter!"
"I drool. In private!" I said laughing too.

We made our way to our form room and went to our seats. Everyone eventually made their way in and Harris and Carter strutted in. Girls swooned at the sight of them, Alana included, and I just rolled my eyes. The teacher came in and took the attendance and when she was done, we were free to chat before the first period bell rang. Everyone began chatting to each other and of course, Hannah couldn't miss the opportunity of embarrassing me.
"Hey Red, couldn't find any better clothes to wear today?" She snickered and her cronies laughed. I just looked at Lana and I shrugged my shoulders. I was wearing blue skinny jeans, a red Smurf's tee that said 'I'm Awesome' on it and red All Star shoes. I was comfortable and didn't care about anyone else.

The first period bell rang and Lana and I had different classes. I had Maths and Lana had Biology. Carter and Hannah were in my Maths class. Joy. I made my way to my locker and got my books. As I was walking to class, Hannah and her cronies stopped me.

"Why don't you dress up properly for a change Red, you look disgraceful! You're such an embarrassment to Harris and I. We hate having to tell people that we know you! Harris only talks to you because he's too soft hearted and can't tell you directly to back off! You're such a nerd. No one even likes you. I'm so embarrassed to tell people that we even live under the same roof! And that crush you have on Carter, forget about it. He'll never give a foolish girl like you the time of day!" Hannah yelled and I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes at her words. I don't even know what I've ever done to her, for her to hate me so much. My only other thought was, did Harris only just pity me? I didn't go to my Maths class. I ran. I ran out of the school for the first time.
