The mean dude and the plain girl

The shy girl in the hall

I drag my honey locks behind my ear. "I'm not supposed to be here", I think to myself.

Turning on my heel, I try to rush back to the entrance I came from, my plans are stopped short when I bump into a rock. hard. wall.

"Are you okay" he begins

But I'm in another world. I just need to get out of here quick. I sidestep him and start making my way out again.

Grabbed, is me. There's a hand on my arm.

It's Chadley Bradley. The wall I just ran into. Also, the most popular boy in school. Who ALSO happens to be dating the most popular girl in school, who happens to be my arch-nemesis-ex-best friend, Stace, who may or may not be a cheerleader; - I can't actually remember what she does in her free time.

And then one time, during our 8th-grade dance she poured hot cola on my hair because of an argument we'd had the previous lunchtime - which also ties into the fondest memory I have of my paternal grandmother who decided to comfort me when I ret-

Chadley Bradley, my long-term crush whom I've had conflicted feelings over, continues.

Wow... this is going to be a big one.
