POV Marilyn-

"Good morning class please take out a piece of paper and write about what you think the true meaning of love is." mrs. louf told us

I hate English! it's stupid! I MEAN I ALREADY SPEAK IT!!

I took out a piece if paper and began writing.

'What is love?

Love is when you...' I got stuck

I haven't experienced love. believe it or not, not even from my parents. my dad died last summer and my mom... well she's distant. Off in her own world, so I cook for me and my sister and I walk her to school. She abuses us. I haven't told anyone. I'm afraid. I am pretty much on my own.

*bell rings*

"Please hand in your work and be on her way."

I freaked I was to busy thinking I haven't wrote down anything.

I quick put 'love is love' and ran.

"Pathetic!" my friend Lila said sarcastically.

I smile letting out a laugh.

"Hey you know that new kid Ty?" he asked me

I nodded my head, yes

"He was totally checking you out!"she said happily.

I shrugged slightly blushes.

She looked at me weird.

"What?"

She shook her head and we sat in history.

Ty had this class with us too.

Ty isn't new I was, I didn't really know him. he seemed popular. he was attractive with slightly dark skin with a blonde streak in his dark brown hair.

He caught my eyes and smiled. I quickly turned. the teacher was taking attendance.

" Marilyn strutter?"mr. burn asked

"What?" I said jolting my head up.

"Are you here?" he asked

"Uh yes sorry.." I said looking down.

Everyone laughed.

I smiled.

GREAT JOB LOSER MARI!!!
