***Look Above***

As soon as I change out of my uniform, I head outside to meet Jenna. I climb into her Jeep and we speed off to the mall.

She pulls me into all of these stores that I can't afford and has me try on so many outfits that I lose track. Finally she gives me a white crop top and a pair of jeans to try on.

"Here, you can wear my white converse with this. I think it would look really cute."

I look at myself in the mirror, and I am happy with the way I look. Maybe I need a new style, a new me. I see a new confidence in me, and I'm not going to lie I kinda like it.

I buy the outfit and then we head to the make up section. Jenna keeps looking at all different colors and tones. She finally feels satisfied with what she found and buys it.

We head to her place to get ready for the party.

"Who's party is it?"

"It's Nick's."

Oh my god, it's NICK'S party! I'm going to die, just start digging my grave now. We get dressed and then Jenna sits me down and I'm looking at myself in her mirror until she spins me around to face her.

"Now, no peeking until I'm completely done."

Time flies by, along with pokes, stabs and a whole lot of squeals and "oh shit"s. Jenna spins me around, and I look absolutely stunnning. My hair is in loose curls, I have mascara and eye liner on, my eye brows are penciled and I have a little touch of lip gloss on, I look like a new person.

It's around seven, and we head to Nick's house. We walk in and there are stares, I think they are all staring at Jenna but then she turns around and smiles at me. They're staring at me. I hear whispers as we make our way to the pool.

"Who's the new girl?"

"That's Bella."

"No way!"

When we make our way back my brother sees me.

"Not lookin too bad sis."

"Thanks."

I catch up with Jenna, and we're about to go get drinks then Jessica and her people approach us.

"Wow, look here. Diner girl went shopping and tried to make something of herself. No matter how hard you try honey, you will always be a diner girl, you're too good."

Nick comes up to Jessica.

"Jess, hey calm down. Leave Bell alone."

I look at him in utter shock and I can see that Jenna is shocked too.

"No! You know what?! What the HECK?!"

And with that I took a swig of whatever was in that cup, with everyone else.

The night carried on, while I drank so much that it felt amazing to be alive. Jenna and I were dancing on tables, and just having a blast. All of a sudden, I became super dizzy and I fell of the table into someone's arms. Whoever they were, ended up carrying me to their car.

In the car I became fully aware of who I was with. Nick was driving me home. The same Nick that has never said a word to me, the same one dating Jessica, the same Nick who wouldn't risk anything to be caught with me is giving me a ride home.

"Why are you doing this? You don't even know me."

I can see the frustration in his face while he drives.

"Of course I know you Bell. I practically grew up with you."

"No, you grew up with Sean. You've never said two words to me until now. I'm even surprised you stood up for me! And now your driving me home! Who spiked your drink? What bet did you lose?"

"No one spiked my drink, and I didn't lose a bet! Why can't I do something nice for a friend?!"

"We aren't friends! You barely know me!"

"You're right. Maybe I don't know you."

"Yeah right."

And with that I got out of the car and stumbled into the house as quiet as I could've, and passed out on my bed. Oh god, my head is so gonna hurt in the morning.
