*BEEP BEEP*
"Uggghhh" is all i can say as i wake up to the sound of my annoying alarm clock. I don't feel like going to school, all it brings is drama and heart break.
I especially don't want to go after last year. the truth of the matter is I'm not happy with the way my life is going, I feel so miserable and nobody knows it.
You're probably wondering how does nobody notice how miserable you are? well the answer to your question is I'm very good at hiding it so good that I even get compliments on my smile.
Everyone knows me as the happy girl, the girl who never stops smiling but they don't know me at all. I slowly get up and start to get ready for my first day of junior year.
How exciting hint the sarcasm sorry for the negativity but i'm not really looking forward to taking the stupid ACT's.
Since I already had my outfit laid out I just have to throw it on.
After I finished putting my outfit on I grab my brush and get started on my hair I already showered last night, put some mascara and eyeliner, add a nude lipstick and look in the mirror one last time i put on my "smile" and head downstairs where my mom and sister are waiting for me.
Right when I walk downstairs my mom says "Good morning Charlotte" I look at her with a "smile" and reply "morning mom" I look at my sister Chelsea who's munching on bacon and say "you ready?" I can't believe she's already a freshmen in high school.
Even though me and my sister are two years apart we are super close, she's the only one who can tell my fake smile and real smile apart oh and did I mention that we are both over protective of each other.
she looks at me and says "yup lets go Charlie"only my close friends and family can call me Charlie, but my mom insists on calling me by my full name.
My mom then says "Charlotte honey what about breakfast?" I turn back to her from the door and say " I have a granola bar in my bag mom we have to go we are going to be late love you" and just like that me and my sister are out the door and inside of my Porsche.
I know you're probably thinking wow a Porsche , but I actually won it as a prize I would never be able to afford anything like that.
After fifteen minutes of driving we finally arrived to school. My sister and I quickly rush out of the car so we can make it to the office and grab our schedules before the bell rings.
I look down at my watch it's 6:49 AM so we only have thirty minutes to get our schedules as I was about to look up from my watch i bump into a figure.
It took a few seconds to realize what just happened confused as to who I bumped into i looked up to see this tall guy with dark brown hair and a nice jaw line.
My sister quickly rushes to my side her bodyguard self shining through. She helps me up and glares at the handsome mysterious guy as he walks away then yells "hey dip-shit why don't you watch where your going next time!"
I on the other hand just stare at the guy like a complete idiot and before I realize I'm doing it my sister starts snapping her fingers in front of my face.
Snapping out of my daze I quickly grab my sisters hand and we run to the office. As we are waiting in line my sister gives me a knowing look.
Giving her a questioning look I say "whats with that look?" she smiles and raises her eyebrows "I saw the way you were looking at that guy we have to find out who he is".
Sighing and pouting i look back at her "No! we don't! I'm done with dating " my sister was about to say something but thank god it was our turn to get our schedules.
After we get our schedules my sister leaps with joy as we realize her locker is next to mine and we have lunch together.
As we are putting our books away Darcy my ex-best friend who decided she was too cool for me freshmen year comes and purposefully knocks all the books out of my hand 'oops sorry" then gives me a bitchy look "oh its just you I guess I'm not sorry then".
My sisters just about ready to pounce on Darcy and her 'squad' but i hold her back and tell her "she's not even worth it" giving Darcy a glare she just chuckles and walks away.
Chelsea then looks at me with a pleading look and says " can i please just punch her in the face?' I roll my eyes and smirk a little at my sisters protectiveness.
I say a quick goodbye to my sister and walk to my first class, creative writing, yes I love to write. walking into the class i stop mid-step because I see that guy I bumped into.
Taking a deep breath i walk into class with my head held high and sit as far away from him as I can. The moment I sat down is the moment the bell rang, then all of a sudden a lady with curly hair and these hipster looking glasses comes rushing in the class.
She must be the new creative writing teacher she seems cool I really like her style "Alright class everyone settle down please" everyone stops chatting.
"My names Ms. Anderson, and for the first order of business i will be giving you guys assigned seats everyone get up out of your seat and move to the sides of the class please" everyone quickly gets out of their seat wanting to get this over with.
She starts to call out names and I completely zone out until i hear my name being called.
While hurrying to the seat she's pointing to I realize that I'm sitting next to mystery boy 'oh great this should be a fun year' I think to myself.
As i sit down I offer a small "smile" to mystery boy but he just rolls his eyes and turns away. yayy he already hates me.
A/N Hey guys this is my first story I really hope you guys enjoyed and I'll try to update as much as possible. I doubt anyone's going to read this but thanks if you do read it! It means a lot!
