Innocent Minds

Princess

Chapter One

Clara's P.O.V.

Bang! Bang! Bang! "Open up Clara! I know your in there! Come onnnn, hurry we are going to be late!" My dearest little brother screamed.

Like hell. "Coming! Just a moment!" I replied.

I soaked in the fresh scent of roses, taking my glorious time in the bath. Oh how I love being the eldest! Not long after basking in the joys of being superior to my brother, another voice called "Clara, you really must hurry! We won't want you to be late on your first day of senior year, now would we?"

"Princesses need their beauty baths, Mumsy!" I said with fake enthusiasm as I hopped out of the tub.

I wrapped myself in the fuzzy warmth of the towel and plugged in the blow dryer. Fhoosssh....Fhoosssh! I began my "morning princess routine".
-
I stepped out of the car careful not to be seen. Let's just say I has a kind of reputation around here.....

"Hey look! It's the freak who eats raw meat!"

"I heard she eats the gum off the bottom of the canteen tables!"

"Ew! Gross!"

"I heard that she confessed to Daniel Trent!"

"Uh! That sl*t!"

Yup those were the latest gossip whispers going on in Crighten High.

"Nice too see you all today!" A fake smile on my face.

Ah and here she is, Heather Mason, the originator of these wonderful rumors. Her name even sounds like a classic Mean Girl name.

"Ah! Heather I see you fixed that....issue with the um...nose and breasts" I said just as bright and peppy as her dyed blonde hair.

"Excuse me!" She exclaimed.

"What, did you fart?" I asked in all seriousness.

"Ugh!!!" She scoffed and walked away.

"Nice one, Clark!" My friend Jamie said.

"You think? Should I have added more nose job?" I said.

"Nope. Just the right amount of plastic surgery, thank you." He said trying to control his laughter.

Now I know what your thinking one of us has a crush on the other and we are going to eventually fall in love. Nope. Unfortunately so, Jamie is gay. Although probably very good-looking to most girls with his shaggy dirty-blonde hair and bright blue eyes, I just love him like the brother I've always wanted.

"Do still insist on being called Clark?" I was suddenly interrupted by one of Heather's minions.

"I mean really what kind of stupid nickname is that?"

Ahh, how I love these stereotypical cheerleaders.

"I quite like the name Clark actually." I commented.

"That's an ugly guys name"

Oh honey you did not just go there! "Uh I think superman is actually very sexy." I replied

"Who?"

"I second that!" said Jamie

"Who is-"

"Don't you even say it!" Jamie and I said at the same time.

And with that we flipped our hair, Jamie's imaginary, and walked away swaying our hips and sticking our hands out.

Once we reached the end of the hall we burst out laughing. We are so stupid
