Rose's POV
The nerd, the nerd is all I'll ever be. The nerd that no one wants to take to the dance. The nerd who never goes to a date, who never experienced love or a kiss. The nerd who spends majority of her time in the library or in a classroom. I am the nerd every teacher loves but everyone else hates. I am ugly and fat. No one wants a nerd as a girlfriend. A nerd is all I'll ever be.
"Miss Hathaway! What ever is out there better help you in college." Scolded my teacher Mr. Stan who effectively caught the attention of my fellow classmates who snickered and pointed at me.
"Sorry Mr. Stan." I mumbled quickly looking around catching the eye of the hottest guy, Dimitri. Dimitri was rude and obnoxious, but ever girl wanted him. Oh did I tell you he was also I huge a player. From gossip spread around he got a new girlfriend Tasha and if the rumor was true she will be dumped in the next two weeks.
Dimitri was laughing at me and pointing. I knew what was next a rumor about me thinking about girls. He spread rumor that I was a lesbian, now everyone hates me and despise my very presence.
Trying to fade out the laughing I hide behind my book. The stinging in my eye warned me I was about to start crying. Stifling a sob I sniff and wipe my nose with with back of my hand. Once Stan got a hold of the class, the snickering died down and I was able to start studying again.
After Stan's class is lunch. My time during lunch is spent in me in the library drowning myself in the latest romance novel. Unfortunately for me I was starving today and the gurgling in my stomach would not be satisfied with a small granola bar.
As I trudged to the cafeteria I remembered the last times went in the cafeteria. The popular and the jocks threw spitballs at me. I couldn't escape because they were surrounding me. I came home with spit in my hair and the spit on my clothes. From that day on I vowed I would never go into the cafeteria but today was inevitable, I was starving.
Quietly as I can I walked into the cafeteria and was able to get to the line unharmed. Success I thought. Pleased with myself I started piling my plate.
"The privilege I get to stand behind the lesbian! Better watch what your eating you might get fat." Taunted Dimitri. His remark about my weight stirred up an emotion that rarely happens: anger. Not wanting to make a scene I looked him in the eye.
"Leave me alone." I almost hissed at him. We had a small state down before the lunch lady ushered my forward. I quickly paid and without a second thought I threw away the food. I knew I was fat, but to hear someone else say it. It hurt, it hurt so much I wanted to hit him and scream at his face. I was insecure and unhappy about my life. I guess that's all I'll ever be, the fat nerd no one likes.
Okay I know it was very short but it's just the beginning. Please tell me what you think. Thanks.
