CHAPTER 3
"So... How's life?" I stared at Sean, my other best friend. I just ignored his question. My best friends are smart enough to know that they should never bother me if I'm in a bad mood. No one should ever talk to me. They will either be shouted at or be ignored painfully. I know that's a bit too dramatic, but hey! I'm thinking.
"Oh... kay... You're not in a mood for talking right now."
"Sean! Don't talk to her." Sandra whispered to Sean but it was an epic fail.
Then here comes the silent moment where I was really waiting for after that someone had knocked into me and quickly ran away. I seriously want to know who doesn't know that the word 'Thank You' exists. We were quietly walking to Home Economics when I realized that Zayn was in the same class. My mood immediately brighten up. I was almost there when I saw Leia Lauren. We were once best friends until she started to dress like a slut. She is now best friends with Fely and Anas.
"Hey, Stacy!"
"Mmm... Hey, Felicia."
"Call me Fely, please." I just stayed silent and stared at Leia. The way she dresses is just terrible to look at. I pretty much want to puke.
"So, Stace, why don't you sit with us during lunch time?" I almost jumped when I heard his voice.
Zayn...
I hesitated before looking at my friends. They actually gave me the it's-okay look even though I know it's not okay.
"I would love to-"
"Great!" Anas said before I could finish. Zayn smiled and Leia just glared at me. She used to have a thing with Zayn but Zayn didn't really like the way she dresses, so he dumped her in public. It's weird how they're still friends but they don't really talk anymore.
"Actually, I was saying, I would love to, but... I need to stay with Sean and Sandra."
"Really? Too bad." Leia said with a smirk on her face. Zayn looked sad? Let's not overthink.
"I guess it's too bad." I smiled sweetly at Leia.
I seriously don't know why do they think that Sandra and Sean doesn't belong in the "Populars". I mean Sandra is pretty, tall, smokin' hot and Sean is cute, nice, handsome and quite hot, I think. There's just one thing that makes us best friends. That is, we do not like to hang out with populars. They disgust me with their gossiping and the way the girls dresses. I would never dress like that. I was starting to walk away when I heard Anas whisper.
"I don't even know why is Stace hanging out with those two. What's so special about them. Stace belongs in the populars." I can feel that two pair of eyes were staring at me. I rolled my eyes.
"Just don't listen to her. You guys mean the world to me." Both of my best friends smiled at me and Sandra gave me a hug. We went into class and we found that there were 5 empty seats left. One at the back, two in the front and two in the center of the classroom. Sandra suggested she sit beside me but I refused. I knew that Sean and Sandra have a lot to talk about. They are pretty much the talkative kind while I'm a quite silent type. Realizing that Zayn hadn't came in, I looked around the classroom and wondered, there were only two seats left and I'm technically sitting in the front. Zayn would probably be sitting at the back with his friends. I was pretty dissapointed.
"I'm so sorry I was late."
"Alright, take a seat. We were just about to start."
Surprised, Zayn took the seat beside me. I stared at him with wide eyes and he smiled shyly at me.
