         Senior year. As Summer West, I had nothing to worry about. Since freshman year I had always been the popular one. I didn't force myself to become one, I just became one.

        I wasn't the basic snobby, bitchy popular girl that had her own pick of friends. I just talked to whoever came my way. Although the 'snobby popular princess' tag was placed on every popular person. I hated that title. It made me feel like I was carrying some legacy someone had left behind. I wanted mine.

        "Earth to summer", my bestie, Laura White practically screamed in my ear waking me up from my thoughts. I turned to face her usual flawless smile. She shook me. "I have no idea what you are thinking about but save it for later, we are a minute away from school and we need to make our grand entrance. It's senior year, baby! ", she exclaimed. I narrowed my eyes and replied, "One, I am not your baby. Two, I think your outfit screams grand" . I looked at her really shiny gold half sleeved crop top with the basic black high waisted pencil skirt along with golden hidden 2-inches high tops. I just wore a blue flair dress with a mini black belt and black knee-length low-heeled boots.

        She smiled again as we reached the large doors of Sapphire High School. I turned to park the Audi R8 in the school's parking lot while Laura assessed her make-up. I just had to roll my eyes. 

        We stepped into the the halls of SHS. Everybody turned. I wished they wouldn't. Laura flashed her award-winning smile and I just plastered a grin on my face. Jasmine, our crazy African-American friend caught up with us. Jasmine, was that member of the popular group that made everyone laugh. She had a very peculiar fashion sense. Today, she wore a silver indian sari but it stopped right on her knees which she matched with silver sandals and a shiny black anklet on her right ankle.

        "Oh, my darlings! All I can say is Jasmine is so jazzed for this year", Jasmine exclaimed. She talked and talked about her summmer which involved trips to eight different countries. Oh, Jasmine!

                                                       ------------------------------------------------

                Sean. my other best friend took a seat beside me during lunch. I knew he liked me but I just wasn't interested. He gave me a swift peck. "Haven't seen you today. I was hoping we could hang out after school", he says. I smiled. "Sure, just have a bunch of things to buy from the grocery store for my granny", I replied.

"I could drive you there"

"It's fine, I could just..-"

        Laura cut in. "I'll take your car home for you", she added. I thanked her without meaning it.

        The next period with Mr. Baldwin sucked. He was a good Economics teacher. He just had this sweet low deep voice that made me and everyone in that class really want to sleep.

        Mrs. Bea didn't suck as much. It was actually quite interesting. We were in a fun argument about abstract being better than motif which was so not true when he walked in. Checkered t-shirt with an open black cardigan on top and dark blue jeans along with a really cool shoe that I couldnt remember the name of.

        Mrs. B hit her forehead lightly. "I can't believe I almost forgot, we have a new student joining us today", she said. He gave a really cute shy smile. "Hi, I'm Tyler Reynolds from Ontario, Canada", he said. He had a very sweet deep kind of voice.

        He took a stool behind me and I turned to greet him. "Hi, I'm Summer West", I said with a genuine smile. He gave that smile again. "Hi, Summer", he replied and for some really weird reason my heart skipped a beat.
