CH.2-Ugly ducky

Ch.2 - Ugly Ducky 

              Click, click , click on her keyboard she went finding out who and how the person needed her help. "I like this girl but she's completely clueless." The jock complained about this volleyball player who was the picture perfect athlete. No wonder the guy liked her I would too if i was him. Her skin was clear and her hair was long and flowed like an oasis. She wished she was like her and not the ugly freak she was. 

          Stop...She calmed herself down and reminded herself she did not need love because cupid can not fall in love. She has never  loved a boy in her life anyway so what is there to be jealous of? The only love she needs is the love he helps others find and nobody needs to share that slice of love with her. That is why she is anonymous, that is why she will help anyone and everyone despite whether she liked them or not. Healthy relationships were her alcohol and she would make sure each and every relationship she made was healthy that was her only standard. She did not want pain and love to mix into a bucket of filth. It made her feel gross even though it was not her life. 

       She gave the regular usual info to him as she always did. 

"I will put the small camera and wire in the location sent to you on the map there you will attach it and just a reminder that you must return them to the location or else you will be put on blast for using the service :) " 

"Yea yea I got you so when do we start"

" The day after tomorrow I am taking a holiday but tomorrow will be the start of your love journey!"

"Don't make it sound like a fuckin' dumbass girly cartoon" 

" Sheesh do you want my help or not" 

" Yea sorry, the day after tomorrow is good" 

" Good now Jackson run along" 

"I- how did you know my name??!!" 

"Cupid knows all!" 

        she snickered at the douchebag's confusion as she put her big chunky headset back on. She remembered that this was the guy who gave her the best hateful nickname which was "ugly ducky" he couldn't even get "ugly duckling just ugly ducky." she laughed to herself as she recalled. It was because of her headphones having cute little ducks on them and of course he has to over sexualize it. If she recalled correctly it was "Ew its the ugly ducky what no one wants to take a bath with you because they'd probably get a disease even with a condom on!" him and his friends laughed and got there kicks out of it. They started singing "rubber ducky your so fun-" loudly around her until they got board and realized she was smirking at them. She was gonna be able to put another name on her white board. "Ugly ducky" she laughed and wore those headphones from that day on. 

        Oliver had gone home after his 5 hour stay as per usual. He needed to go back to the hell hole which was his house eventually to feed his hamster.  Mr. flower was adorable so she could not really blame him. When he did leave she cleaned up her room a bit collecting his papers scattered about. He tried to do his homework but his game in his own words "Was better than any Algebra or science." He really did love the cute animal games didn't he. His eyes would light up and his smile would look so out of place with all the chains, spikes and overall darkness of his outfit. His freckles and baby blue eyes looked like what he acted like which is most likely why when he pouted you would laugh.  Now that she thought about it it would probably make sense if they switch outfits all together with her being a sarcastic teen in cutesy pastel clothing. 

          She looked at a picture he was drawing and saw he was doing anatomy.' Yay naked women' she thought. She observed the drawing and noticed how pretty the figure was. Her body was thin and her skin was a pinkish hue. He long blonde hair flowed off her shoulders shining in the forced lighting of the drawing. She noticed freckles on her bare shoulders which made a warmth then a sharp pang of pain go through her. She has a thought pouring through her brain "God I want to be her". Then she stopped and plopped herself up to put the picture in her friend's stack of papers. "No more of this pain I have already accepted..." She gathered herself up couching herself "I am the ugliest duckling!" She said reassuring herself of the statement she had always told herself.  Then she reminded herself "Don't be upset about something that will never happen. I am ugly but I don't have to be sad." She said the last part unsure but did her best to convince herself.  

        She laid down in her bed to listen to the sound of trees swaying. Oliver said that the new student is going to be staying over his place for a while. "If we get married you get to be my bridesmaid!" he said with his puppy dog eyes. "How do you even know it's a girl dude?" She was fiddling with a sewing needle making a small plush toy. "I just have a feeling. I can feel my brain catching the love signals!" He smiled widely as he extended his arms like an angel who forgot to fly. He was like a puppy to her and his talking was like listening to a two year old sing. It was adorable but you could not take it seriously. "Hey if she is able to handle you I will giver her all the respect in the world. I will call her queen idiot." She said as she bowed dramatically with a smug look on her face. "Why thank you noble steed!" He bowed back. "Steed? I- I'm a horse now." She laughed loudly. "Was that not the right word ?!". She just neighed in response making them both fall back into giggles. 

     She started to wonder what does this new student look like. It would probably be another bitch and that would most likely be hell for Oliver. Hey, at least his parents have to pretend they are decent people for a few months which is always a good thing. Maybe they can be a new addition to the social  outcasts. They could laugh at the way the cheerleaders squalled when they talked about the new concert of the week. Maybe they will be a good partner for Oliver. Alice has always wanted Oliver to have someone but the dude is clueless. I wonder if the new student will find her cupid service. Maybe they will fall hard for someone. Maybe Oliver! The thought made Alice extremely happy. She liked being the third wheel strangely it was like watching a beautiful movie. She smiled and told herself "I will get Oliver someone one of these days he will have the love of his life."
