Chapter 2 ~New face~

I needed an escape. Reading made all of my shitty problems disappear, it made me feel free. To glide across different worlds and places, to be someone else. But my novel was taken away from me last year by the almost bald, scrawny, and arrogant Mr Stoweway, who caught me reading instead of studying in math class. Bastard stole my favourite book, and I intend to get it back today. After walking agonizingly slow to the Eastbrooke bus station I finally catch my breath. Sport or any physical exercise activity wasn't my cup of tea. I wasn't alone either, there were about 25 other studants waiting for the school bus, I have to inconspiciously hide my heavy breathing or else everyone is going to think i'm giving birth or something...

Finally after arriving late the school bus makes it's grand entrance and quickly haults to a stop, everyone rushes in and of course pushes me out of the way, making me last in again. Brushing past I sigh and hesitantly enter the rusted and old vehicle, as always at the back of the rust pile there lies the damaged, graffitied, malodorous seat that happens to be the only one left. Everyone giggles and eyes me as I walk past and sit on what I think is a seat, but I honestly don't know anymore. I regret seeing the same faces everyday, the same mocking and irritating faces.

I needed my book, more then ever! All I can hear are everyone's stupid conversations about stupid pointless shit. Mostly all the talking I can hear is this high pitched tone which belongs to Rebecca Simmons. Eastbrooke's cheerleading captain and popular bitch. Typical pretty as she goes blonde, and her mind isn't exactly well.. developed. She hates me, and I sure as hell hate her pristine and waxed ass.

" Do you think ugly is contagious?" Rebecca asked her friend looking as if she had just saen a ghost, then staring at me.

And at that moment I wanted to bang my head against the nearest object, this is why I read because I don't have to listen to this stupidity.

I alter my gaze to a boy that entered the school bus, he doesn't look familiar. He wore ebony boots, denim jeans, a white t-shirt that clung to his masculin body and a black leather jacket. My eyes widen upon his arrival, I couldn't shift my eyes from him. Apparently I wasn't the only one who looked astouned, the whole bus went silent. Rebecca jumped from her seat and welcomed the new bus recruit, "of course, a new toy for Rebecca to play with" I thought to myself and rolled my eyes.

"I wouldn't talk to her if I were you" Rebecca pointed to me and spoke loudly to the strange boy who automatically placed his gaze on me as well as the whole bus.

"She has the ugly disease, careful I think its contagious" she spat and grinned like she knew what she was talking about. Giggling she escorted the boy to a seat and placed herself next to him.

Everyone laughed at the fact that I was the punch line of what seemed to be the most hilarious joke, but when I locked eyes with the handsome boy and watched him laugh, my heart raced and I wished I could sink into nothingness.

This was going to be a long drive..
