Chapter 1, part 1

September 1st ; 7:30 AM

- Hey mom.

- Hey sweetie, do you want pancakes for brea...

She looked at me as if she had seen a ghost, her mouth was wide open. It looked like she was trying to say something but no words seemed to come out.

- Whats wrong?

- Are you going to wear this at school today? Nah-ah no way! I'm helping you find better clothes right away.

I know what you're thinking, "she's probably wearing a short skirt and her mom doesn't want her to look like a whore the first day of school" but, the truth is that my mom is a fashion designer. She's probably the best dressed mom in the whole area. We went upstairs and my mom gave me some of the "cutest" clothes she found (even tho i thought they where disgusting).

- Do I really have to wear this?

- Yes. Now hurry up or you're going to be late!

- as if you cared.

- What did you just say, young lady?

I thought she was going to kill me. I knew she cared about me and my studies but she sure wasn't doing her best to show that. I didn't answer her question and decided to leave as soon as possible even though that would mean I had to miss mom's delicious pancakes.

- I have to go.

- Don't you dare walking away or i-

I didn't give her time to finish her sentence. As i walked away i turned around one last time. I convinced myself it was just to say goodbye but i knew deep inside that it was to see the disappointed look of my mother. I don't know why i even turned around. Watching her being so disappointed broke me. But i had to go to school so i just ran to the schoolbus and sat down trying not to burst into tears.

Thats when i saw him. Aaron smith , the most popular guy in the whole school. Okay i know its starting to be like an actual teen drama. Anyways. He didn't talk to me. He just sat down next to me because he couldn't find another spot. He looked at me and smiled. I've had a monstercrush on him since 5th grade! Whatever. The bus was going to leave until...

-Move it Adams.

Ugh. This peice of shit that just told me to "move it" is my childhood bestfriend, Jordan Jackson. As you can probably see we aren't best friends anymore. He ditched me for Jessica Dawson. And guess what? They're dating now.

 
-Be nice Jordan.

-I am nice.

-sure...

Did he just stood up for me? I couldn't believe it. The bus stopped at our school and i was ready for new adventures.
