One of the worst things in life is to get judged for who you are on the outside, not on the inside- not the real you. Don't you just hate that?! Hate is not even the word. Despise, is the right word.
Right now i am know as the new girl, and i always will be until someone else comes along. But till then i am stuck with the label 'new girl', you might as well tattoo it on my forehead! I have been in this school for a few days and i'm already known as 'that A grade girl', so many labels! Another one to tattoo on my forehead in tiny letters.

"-And then she said, 'oh but am i not good enough for you?' and then i was like 'damn chill'. Probably the funniest break ups ever!" I heard Ryley laugh, and in the corner of my eye i saw him lean back in his chair.
Rolling my eyes at his behaviour, i returned to back to what was hopefully a sandwich. Screw you school lunches, screw you. I poked at it and was very much tempted to investigate until i heard Lily squeal next to me. "Oh em gee! Ryley is totally checking you out!" She fanned herself with her hands and i turned round, resting my hand on top of it. I saw Ryley staring at me with that permanent smirk, does he ever smile? Or just smirk? Yet again, i rolled my eyes and turned back. I seem to be doing that a lot more ever since i moved here.

"Him and his ego an go burn in the deep depths of hell." I muttered, poking my food and lifting up the bread to check the contents.
"Whoa there tiger!" Cole laughed, "No wonder that boy is so hooked onto you."
I furrowed my eyebrows, "Please speak English!" Resting my chin underneath on the palm of my hand.
"Then you must learn young grasshopper. Now shut you're ass and listen!" He began, "Ryley, you see he has always had girls falling to his feet, he is that stereotypical bad boy that has the girls round his little finger. He's not used to having a girl reject him, so this makes him attracted to you. You're like a magnet to him. Even though you want him to go away, he can't." He finished with a big breathe and waited for my reaction.

"But, the thing is if i be one of those girls he uses, he'll hurt me. And if i keep pushing him away, i will probably end up hurt anyway." I pointed out.
"Basically yeah, it's a lose-lose situation. Just try not fall for his tricks." Cole said casually, of course he would! He doesn't have to go through this.
The belly rang and a stampede of students made their way out the door, i look at my timetable and see that i have Maths. Placing my timetable away, i made my way down the hall to the maths room where i opened the door to reveal some students with their legs on the table and loudly chewing brightly coloured gum, there was some people in the corner trying to avoid eye contact with the others, and well, there's the 'i-could-not-give-a-crap-get-away-before-i-punch-you' group that consists of Ryley and his friends. His eyes were moving up and down. 

I move away and sat down in the middle row, neither was i at the front or the back row. A teacher who looked in his late forties walking in with a laptop and and bored expression written in his features.
"Afternoon, i am Mr Alford your maths teacher for now." He set down his laptop and turned it on, and turned on the projector so we could see what we were learning.
"Whoa hold up," A voice from the back called out, "Wheres our old teacher?"
Mr Alford scratched the back of his neck, "He urm, he met with a small car accident-" With that the whole room became so silent, i am pretty sure if you drop a tiny pin you'll be able to hear it.
"-but don't worry, he is recovering and will return soon." He turned to write some equations and whispered loud enough for me to hear; "Jesus, i hope."

Ouch, why did you even become a teacher then?

The bell went and a sigh of relief was let out, everyone got up and hurried to get out and get home. "Remember to complete you're algebra homework!" Mr Alford shouted, some of the boys snickered because of the word bra' in algebra.
I walked up to his desk and handed the homework sheet, he stared at me as if i'd gone crazy.
