I was in my own little world; thinking about how I could change my life, school was over for summer and I wanted to go to
this new school a changed girl. I didn't want people making fun of me or ganging up on me. Sure I had millions of best
friends but I needed a little change. All my life people picked on me and it made me stronger, made me realize I'm better
than the people who made fun of me heck even guys asked me out because of bets and I learned the hard way that it was a joke. I'm 17 and don't trust a guy when they ask me out and I ignore crude or mean, hurtful comments from people.
I'm way stronger than any other girl; in my heart, soul and will I'm stronger than anyone. But I wanted to shock people next school year and I will. I nodded to myself as I walked agreeing to my plan, not paying attention to a guy jogging towards me until I ran into him and fell to the ground. Apparently he wasn't paying attention either.
"Oh my god I'm so sorry. Are you all right?" He asked helping me from the ground. "I'm fine. Sorry it was my fault I wasn't paying attention." I said wiping off my ripped jeans. They were already like that and they were my favorite pair now they
were dirty. Great. I looked up and saw his face. 'My god he's handsome.' I thought. He looked me over and that made me slightly nervous.
He said "You know a girl shouldn't be out here alone some guy might harm you." He looked like he may be my age. I lifted
my eyebrow at him and started to laugh. "What's so funny?" He said obviously mad that I ignored his advice. "The thing is that no guy in the world would think once of coming near me the only guys that have are the idiot ones who think they can
win a bet asking me out." I said pulling my little over short hair in a sloppy bun. "My point. You could get hurt." He said crossing his arms.
I scoffed "You don't get it. They bet each other because they know I'm the plain girl, the girl everyone makes fun of. But I know better I may not be as pretty but I'm not dumb." He looked at me again a look of disbelief. I waited a moment waiting
for a response. Okay now he was staring at me. I waved me hand in his face and he didn't snap out of it so I tugged his damp orange hair. "Ow. What was that for?" He said. "For staring. You looked shocked for some reason." I said. He unfolded his arms and yelled "Well it's hard to believe that okay so don't get cocky."
"I wasn't but fine, anyway I'll be fine on my own and sorry for running into you…" I said looking for a name. "Kyo." He finished for me. "And don't worry about it." I shrugged and held out my hand. "If you say so. By the way my name is Cassidy." He shook my hand. "Well I got to get back to my place before my roommate burns it to the ground." I said waving as I walked away.
He stared dumbfounded for a moment then yelled beck "Hey can I at least walk you there or call you later to make sure you didn't die." I walked back over to him and took a pen out of my bag. "No but I'll let you call maybe we can be friends. I'm a good friend and I have plenty to tell ya that." I said taking his hand and writing down the house phone number.
After I put the pen away I walked back to the house leaving him standing there.
I opened the door to the house and went upstairs to my room. I put my stuff away and went back downstairs to make dinner. Cindy was dead asleep on the sofa with the TV on some movie. I shook my head and went to the pantry. I never let
Cindy cook because she would only cook a TV dinner. 3o minutes later Cindy walked in bugging me about what were having when it was in front of her on the stove. "Cindy it's on the stove all you need to do is look." I sighed that girl is to hipper all
the time but I love her like my own sister. She has 4 siblings and I have none so she's all I have besides mom and dad.
We ate dinner with Cindy talking the whole time and me laughing with her. "So meet anyone new today?" She asked since we were new here we've only been here 2 months. I told her about Kyo and as I thought she went crazy.
She cleaned the table and sat on the sofa. "So when's the wedding?" She joked. I snuck up on her and tackled her to the ground tickling her. We laughed till we couldn't breathe. Then the phone rang.
Catching my breath I got up to answer it but she beat me to it. "Hello this is Cindy speaking." She chimed in the phone. "Uh yeah is this the home of Cassidy too?" The guy asked. "Yes it is, are you her new boyfriend?" She smiled as I ran to the phone and hit her in the arm "He's not my boyfriend idiot." I said.
I grabbed the phone from her and pointed upstairs to her room.
She pouted like a little kid and went upstairs. "Hello I am so sorry about Cindy she's a little to hipper right now." I said. On the other end of the phone Kyo was blushing because of what Cindy had asked him but replied "It's fine. I was just calling to see if you were okay and if you wanted to hang out or something tomorrow." I stood there thinking it over. He was a new friend so it wouldn't harm.
