Mia Clarke shyly watches her crush from afar, longing for him to notice her. She convinced herself that she's just waiting for him to carry her off of her feet and that he's the love of her life. Her wish finally came true when he appeared at her locker, asking her to come to a party. Heart struck, she agrees. 

  Later that night, drunk and in haze, she is led by the 'love of her life' upstairs. Waking up in a stranger's bed, it dawns on her of what just happened. Her life will no longer be the same, with suddenly there is talk about her in the hallways and people who never acknowledged her start watching. With a couple of words, she is the most popular person in school, people clinging to her arms. She feels like she's on cloud 9, her high school life finally starting. So intoxicated by her new life, she doesn't realize how she starts to spiral down into a hole of drugs and sex. 

"You could've just said no." He huffed, crossing his arms over his chest. 
"What do you mean 'I could've just said no'?!" 
I laughed sarcastically, glaring at him. 

He shrugged, his eyes shifting around the hallway, unable to meet my gaze. 
I snapped my fingers in front of his face, boiling with anger by the second. 

"Answer me!" I huffed loudly. 

"You could've have said no to the sex." 

I felt my jaw drop, outrage. 

"How dare you." I hissed, my hands balling with rage.
