It must have been the surroundings that made her feel so vulnerable yet strong. A classroom with posters and random quotes from famous authors. A classroom filled with irritated students who longed to be free with their friends playing hooky. A classroom with a few menacing boys who never left her alone. A simple classroom and a simple life. That's what she made everyone believe.
"Whew Katie, show them legs" one of the detestable creeps whispered to Katie. She flashed them a disgusted look and quickly grabbed her sweater from her bag and covered her long tan legs. The guy continued to stare at her, and with a wink and a blown kiss, he turned to look back at the whiteboard. Another obnoxious creep laughed and punched his friend in the arm for the brave comment he made about Katie. Katie shook her head with the same disgusted look on her face and continued to intently concentrate on the information on the whiteboard.
"Why don't you call me later, ya know what I mean.you can call me Papa" The second loathsome guy said with a wink and passed her a note with his cell phone number on it. First day of school. Katie took the paper, got out of her seat, walked over to the garbage, and threw it into it.hard. She glanced over at the guy and sat back down in her seat quietly. All the while, the teacher was sitting at her desk with a book covering her face.
"Katie" A familiar voice called to her "Wanna grab some ice cream after school?" Victoria called to her as she knelt down beside Katie's seat.
"Sure! I know a good place that opened not too long ago"
"Good, because I need a ride home"
"Oh. Yeah sure I can take you home" Katie finished politely though she felt used on the inside. A tight pang wrung itself through her head as she squinted her eyes to make it go away.
"Are you ok?" Victoria asked kindly as she reached up to touch Katie's leg.
"Yeah fine" Katie said as she stood up and excused herself to go to the bathroom.
"Look at her ass man" One of the obnoxious guys called out across the room as everyone turned to look. Katie felt violated. Victoria stood up and flashed a flirty smile at the guy who made the comment about Katie.
"You can join us after school if you want" Victoria said as she leaned over and whispered her number into the boys' ear. Vicky made sure he got a good look down her shirt as she did so, and then shook her butt more than usual as she walked away. The guys' friend punched him in the arm again with a pleasing smile.
"Dude, you're gonna get some ass tonight!" He said as a joke. The class grew silent again as Katie entered through the classroom door. Her blonde hair was shoulder length, perfectly straight and silky smooth. She had emerald green eyes the fluctuated between the color of a rainforest, and the color green on army clothes. She was five feet five inches, tan, slender, and shapely. She had matured a lot over the summer since the last time everyone saw her. One of the guys smiled as she neared her seat. Two new guys in school. Katie thought to herself "what a waste of time these two are" as she sat in her seat and waited patiently for the end of school bell to ring.

"Katie wait" She heard a voice call out to her, friendly yet tricky. Old habits never die. "So where is this ice cream place you know of?"
"Oh it's right down the road Vic, no worries. We can walk there to save gas"
"Good, I'll uh, be right back" Vicky said with a wink as she ran off down the blank hallway. Katie continued to walk out of the school, and waited by the steps in the front of the main building. Many students were pouring out of the doors, excited to have the first day finished. Katie saw Vicky dashing through the crowd, and also saw two familiar obnoxious faces following her.
"Yo Vick, you got a trail" Katie yelled out to her
"Oh I know, you wouldn't mind if they came with us, right?" Vicky asked as she pulled one of the boys up next to her. Katie noticed they were attractive, but their personality made them atrocious.
"Uh.I guess not" Katie said reluctantly, knowing she would regret her decision. Then they pressed on down the sidewalk, to innocently go eat some ice cream.

"So what are your names?" Victoria asked as she traced her mouth with a cherry, staring intently at the two new guys. Vicky then put the cherry seductively into her mouth, and swallowed it.
"Well, I'm Derrick." said a rather handsome, blonde hair, blue eyed, tan and muscular guy. His facial features were soft, not rugged and choppy like some girls might like. He had welcoming eyes, but wandering.
"And I'm Tony" said a dark haired, tall, brown eyed, tan and semi- muscular man. His facial features were more of the choppy look that made him mysteriously handsome. The two new guys are kind of cute, Katie thought to herself.
"Do you guys want to come over to my house after this ice cream meeting and possibly work on some homework?" Victoria asked Derrick with a flirty smile. Then she winked at Tony. Victoria had long, dark wavy hair that cascaded down her back. She had deep blue eyes that were intriguing to most guys, and a shape most girls would pay for. Her only downfall is that she was too easy around the guys; no challenge. Katie on the other hand was very enigmatic and drove the guys crazy for her.
"Well,
