If you're judging this book by its cover and title, you're already proving the point this story wants to make. Try to move past this satirical obstacle in front of you. This is a story about bullying, and like the hundreds of other books on the topic, it will show you the harsh reality of being discriminated, belittled, ridiculed for something you cannot control- how you look, who you love, or what you believe in. But unlike these books, this story's sole purpose is not to tear your heart out of your chest as you mourn over your loss of faith in humanity. Instead, this book will make you laugh and love alongside these characters. Just like in life, there will be moments of dread and surrender, but there will also be moments of happiness, laughter, and love. - Naomi Lorraine, better known as Nerdy Naomi with her thick-rimmed glasses and straight-A report card, is the most unpopular girl in her school. Even with the help of her sarcastic comebacks, that doesn't stop her from getting bullied by everyone in Dartwell High. Every day her childhood bully, Raymond Meyers, knocks her off her feet, literally. However, she can't do anything but survive the laughs, insults, and bruises high school gives her. There are three senior transfer students, dubbed the Three Musketeers: Bennett Frazier, Jordan Wallace, and Declan Lynch. All in one day, Naomi catches their attention one by one. With her snarky attitude, but innocent look, they can't help but want her. But not the way you're thinking. Oh no, not like that. Instead, it's probably the whole opposite. It's quite simple really. She'll be their good girl. And they'll be her bad boys. ~ [This story is a first draft written by a 13 to 15-year-old girl so it has its fair share of grammar mistakes and plot holes.] Wattys 2015 Talk of the Town Award Second Place Story of 2015 Best Humor and Overall Points of The Fiction Awards 2016 Third in the Writers Awards 2016 Highest Ranks: #1 Humor, #1 Teen Fiction

|1ST PLACE IN HISOKA FOR HUNTERXHUNTER WATTYS| Once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess who lived in a magical kingdom. The princess was as fair as she was kind. When she was born, a horrible witch put a curse on her. To save her life, the princess was forced to live in a tower that no man was able to set foot in. The princess was lonely and she sang her heart out everyday. A prince heard her beautiful songs and was mesmerized. Eventually he climbed up the tower and defeated the witch, and they lived happily ever after. That's the story people want to hear. That's the story that they are familiar with; that they want to happen. They want to read about righteousness and chivalry, of heroes and heroines, of how good always triumphs over evil. I am no princess; I am an Empress. My kingdom is not magical, there are no fairies, no magic, no happily-ever afters. My kingdom was built on death, and suffering, and the endless tears and screams of the fallen. There is no good in Heaven's Arena. There is the strong, and the weak; and the strong are called Gods. It's not an evil curse that traps me in this tower, but my own stupidity; and it won't be a prince that rescues me - but the joker. I will not have a happily-ever after, it is my repentance for my sin. I dared to challenge the so called Gods... And I won. - |Started: May 2016 || Complete uwu |
