Between us

Erica

The familiar sound of the school bell pierced my ears as i walked through the hallway to maths class.

I was extremely tired exhausted because i was busy watching my favorite movie last night, I know i was suppose to be sleeping but I couldn’t resist and now i have dark circles.

Everywhere i looked there were students laughing and kissing.

A jock teasing a cheerleader as she literally applies her lipgloss on her shiny lips.

Everyone is so happy and excited was i jealous? Maybe. I got to class and mrs Anderson my favorite teacher hates this class because they never listen but I don’t blame her i hate it too.

I always sit at the back to avoid attention so people won’t notice me and because the class queenbee Marilyn always make fun of me and bullies me because i was different, she’s so perfect and has blonde hair, a nice sharp nose which makes her look like a barbie doll, anyways she hates me because her boyfriend Zack was my ex boyfriend.

Zack was my first boyfriend and i liked him alot, he was nice and he has amazing blue eyes which made him very attractive and blonde hair but anyways he broke my heart and made fun of me and said he only dated me because it was a bet and i wasn’t even attractive, then he dumped me in public and said hurtful words because I didn’t let him take my virginity, everyone laughed at me and called me names, anyways he made me feel less and damaged and unloved, he was a playboy and i was stupid not to notice.

I hated players so much and I promised myself not to be fooled by one again because they think everything is about them and it’s easy to get any girl.

After math class i went to the cafeteria to meet my only friend Vera, she has been my best friend for a long time, anyways she’s the only one i could trust and i love her so much.

Vera is 5ft which makes me a little bit taller than her, so we both started talking about our class which was boring has hell, then she started staring at one of the jocks AKA the player which i hate by the way but I don’t blame her because they are attractive, she has a crush on Sam. He’s really attractive with golden brown eyes and brown hair, anyways i told her not to get her hopes up but she’s clueless and said Sam is her one true love, i rolled my eyes at her but the girl can dream.

After school Vera drove me home because she has a car and I don’t, and also I can’t drive yet anyways.

I got home and saw a note my mom dropped on the table which says she’s gonna be home late again because she’s a doctor which I totally understand and use to it, my mom saves lifes which is amazing but she’s never around when i need her, like the day i got bullied really bad she wasn’t there for me so I always keep things to myself and my dad left my mom when i was just a baby, i guess he didn’t want me and left my mom because of me at least I didn’t know the guy.

Last year was terrible for me because i was bullied alot and i tried to kill myself but Vera was there to stop me and she’s the only one that knows about the stuff that happened to me, but now I’m 17 anyways and i wasn’t bullied anymore except Marilyn because she likes tormenting me.

I was always insecured about the way i looked, i was ordinary, i had long brown hair and big brown eyes, and i was more insecured about my body because I’m really skinny but I wasn’t so bad but the girls who bullied me made me hate my self and they called me ugly, I didn’t look so bad but i wasn’t perfect like Marilyn anyways.

After eating dinner alone i went to my room to read my favorite novels, I’m a book person and i love books about Romeo and Juliet, after reading for a while i slept off.

The next morning i woke up getting ready to head out for school, I didn’t really care much about what i wear but at least I should still look good even though I’m invisible, i wore my blue shirt it was kinda big but it fits and a pair of boyfriend jeans and my sneakers to go with the outfit, i was ready to go but first i put my hair in a bun.

After some minutes Vera knocked at my front door, i ran downstairs and grabbed my bag.

We arrived at school on time and Vera keeps talking about Sam and I told her to tell him how she feels but she said no, because she was scared of being rejected by him.

We went our separate ways because i was having English class but she has Chemistry, so I went to my locker to drop some books because it was alot, but when i got there i saw Jake miller the school playboy kissing a cheerleader with black hair at my locker, i was so upset but I know I couldn’t do anything about it anyways, so i walked up to them then said excuse me that’s my locker can you both move which made both of them turned to me.

Then he was just staring at me which made it intimidating because he was tall and has blue eyes which made him more attractive, and also his brown hair looked so soft but anyways I hated players and his one of them.

Then he whispered something in the cheerleader’s ear which made her laugh then she left, then he moved a little bit but was still staring at me.

I didn’t care I just dropped my book then started walking to my English class which i was late for by the way but I felt like someone was staring at me but I couldn’t turn back because i was late for English class.
