~Bethany's POV~:
It was once again Monday. I hate Mondays because school but I guess Tuesdays are worse...but I'm still at this dreaded place so I'm going to complain.

At least I'm in my last class of the day, drawing. I actually don't hate this class because I love to draw it just...it just brings me a little relief and distracts me from everything that goes on in life. It also helps me express myself just by using a few pencils to form a picture on a simple piece of paper.

The teacher was talking about us doing some final project since the term was coming to an end, along with this class. Apparently we had to draw a self portrait but put our own creativity into it, like all art. She explained how we could use words, other images aside from our face, something abstract, basically anything as long as the main image was a self portrait.

She left us the last ten minutes of class to start. I didn't really start brainstorming yet or anything I just doodled a little in my sketch pad. I practiced drawing eyes since I sometimes struggle with those, and a few lips as well since I'm also not the best at drawing those either.

"Oh and class! Whatever your theme is it must relate to a feeling you have. Whether it be happiness, love, fear, anything. Okay keep working." My teacher announced. Crap emotions, feelings. I can't share those with people. My personal drawings are for that. The drawings only I see.

I sighed and started brainstorming. I mean I might as well right. What emotion can I share with the class? All I feel is sadness, pain, abandonment, and some love for my grandma but I wasn't about to draw a self portrait of me and my grandma. Ugh I don't want to share any of those emotions with the class...

I felt someone nudge my side. I turned my head quickly to the side to see a petite girl with golden blonde hair that fell past her shoulders in soft waves. Her eyes were as blue as the sky on a cloudless day. Freckles dotted her nose and the tops of her cheeks. She flashed me a white smile before she spoke, "Hey Beth? That's your name right? Well I know we've been in the same class all term and such but I just moved here as the term began and I still don't really have any friends...I was just kinda asking if maybe you would like want to go shopping sometime? Or do anything because I'm seriously getting desperate to find some friends here at this school." She looked a little sad and hurt.

I had to think a little before I could answer her. I haven't had a friend in years...and I guess it would be nice to have a friend again. "Um sure. When would you like to hang out?" I asked shyly. Nobody as asked to be my friend in such a long time so I was a little nervous and cautious to accept her offer.

"Anytime. I'm free like all the time." The girl smiled widely and held out her hand in front of her for me to shake, "I'm Maia if you didn't already know." I shook her hand.

"I'm Bethany...or Beth like you said." I forced a smile back so I wouldn't seem rude. "And yeah I'm pretty much free whenever too."

"Well here let my have your number so we can plan something sometime." She said. I handed her my phone and she handed me her's so we could enter each other's numbers into the other's phone. Once we had finished we had exchanged our phones back.

The bell rang a few minutes later signaling the end of class and the end of the school day. I hurriedly left the room after saying goodbye to Maia, my new friend. That word is so weird to me. It's so...distant. My only concern is my fear of messing up. The fear that she'll abandon me like all of my past friends did and that she'll hate me forever. I pushed the thought away and walked to my car.

Before I got in I saw two people talking a few cars down from mine. Out of curiosity I tried to see who it was. It was Connor and...and Sasha. Shit. Sasha was yelling and crying.

"Wait is that...no way!!! Bethany!!!" Sasha screamed my name and started heading towards me so I got in my car and locked it before I started to back up making sure I didn't run her over. I wasn't that mean or cruel. Even though she's a bitch. I saw her angry tear-stained face in my rear view mirror as I pulled away, Connor was looking at me with a sad look on his face. What happened between those two and why is Sasha pissed at me? Wait...no. No it can't be. I swear if Connor broke up with her I am going to hurt him. She would immediately assume I had something to do with it considering the past so if he dumped her...then well it would've looked a lot like what just happened there. God Connor is such an idiot.
-----------------------------------------
A/N: So yay for Beth making a friend but Sasha though...So I'm a little pissed today because there was a -39 degrees Fahrenheit wind chill today and I had to go to school while most of the other schools in Minnesota were closed! Like what the heck? I swear if I ever see my superintendent guy I will punch him in the face because I nearly froze at the bus stop today. Seriously it was only like -16 but it was -39 when wind was an added factor so it really sucked. Yay for Minnesota winters (that was sarcastic). Sorry for taking long to update...I love you all :)
