Plot: this is just my life with different characters. People who know me can skip the details about me, and the people who don't know me, well… read the details. This is my love life and how I want it to be. It will be based on some true facts and some not true facts. People who know me will know what facts are true and what aren't. So hold on tight, and I hope you like my story

Chapter 1:

To start out, I'm not social. I have a few friends, one of which is my closest friends, but the others are either drifting or stupid and arrogant. I'm a junior in high school and I don't know where I want to go for college. I have no social life, being that I only study. I am completely and totally insecure about me, because I have the feeling that everyone I meet is either scared of me, which is impossible cause I never say anything, or they think I'm ugly and fat. Either way, I'm afraid people won't like me. And just as a side note, I didn't meet Riley and Pat and ask to be their friends. They met me and became my friends just like that.

If you want to get technical, Pat and I clicked 5 years ago, and now, we're slowly un-clipping. Riley on the other hand, I thought was popular, so I tried to make conversation with her. We ended up having band and health together in 6th grade, and afterwards, we were friends! She is the closest friend I have that I know is NOT going to slip away. And even if she moves somewhere across the world, she's always gonna be my BFFL! :D

Anyway, we're all in 11th grade now and I'm the only one out of the three of us that has a driver's license and hasn't had a boyfriend. Riley claims to get it when she moves back to England, and Pat, I have no idea what's going on with her anymore. All Pat talks about is; in order of listed: Herself, Calvin (her "ex-boyfriend"), CJ and Ryler (her two "soul mates"), her family and the Backstreet Boys. Yes, Riley and I put up with it cause we're good friends; but we really get sick of it after a while.

"Hello? Earth to Kat? How many times has Kat zoned out in this 48 minute lunch period, Riley?"

"I don't know Pat, let's say around.. kagillion!" Pat started laughing as did Riley.

"Stop it guys. I didn't get any sleep. You guys are always so mean to me!"

"Uh-huh. Sure. That's why we agreed to with your chores help you after school."

"Yeah Pat. But you threatened me if I didn't; you'd tell the whole school something bad!"

"ok…well yeah. Oh guys! Guess who called me last night?"

Riley and I looked at each other and said in unison, "Calvin?"

"Yes! He told me again how sorry he was and…."

Blah, blah, blah. Believe me, you DON'T want to hear how Pat sounds when she's on a rampage about Calvin.

Finally, the bell rang. We all shuffled to our next classes. I had English next. Uhg.

I stopped at my locker after lunch and saw the most beautiful person I've ever laid eyes on. Since 6th grade. Benjamin Foyer. He's in my grade. He's smart, perfect, smart, great at sports, smart, and perfect. Did I mention he was perfect? He's good looking too. But ever since my parents' divorce, I'm not sure if I know what love is anymore. They never showed it, and when they did, my dad always bought expensive gifts for her and then she kissed him…Anyway, after looking at him I got my books. I turned around and guess who tapped me on my shoulder that made me shriek like a little girl being attacked by a monster? I'll give you a hint: it's NOT Ben. Riley. She was so good at scaring me! I hated her for it! I scared her once, which made me get even with her; let's say at a ratio from 1:4285 or something like that. No big deal.

"Gosh Kitty! Why you gotta scream so loud!"

"I wouldn't if you didn't SCARE me like that. Ready for our essay?"

"Not-at-all."

"Right there with you girlfriend."

We laughed and started heading towards class. I turned around to close my locker and saw a face that looked vaguely familiar. I wanted to go closer to him to see who it was, but the warning bell rang for class.

"Come on Kitty! We gotta go!"

"I'm coming."

We reached the classroom and sat down in our desks and started our essay. It was for 1984 by George Orwell. In my opinion, I liked the book. It was good but very gloomy and dark. But it was good. I just turned in my paper when I heard a knock on the door. It was Mrs. Howard. She was the counselor for the student Ambassadors, which meant she had to give one of us a shadow.

"Good Afternoon Mrs. Howard. How are you?"

"Great thanks, Katherine. I was actually looking for you.

"Oh! Ok, well, what can I do for you?"

"Well, there is a shadow…"

"Sure! I'll shadow…um…is it a boy or a girl?"

Mrs. Howard winced a little. "It's actually a boy. I hope you don't mind him being around you. You only have two more periods in the day. I hope it won't be that much of a bother to you."

I forced the best smile I could afford to give her. I hated boys, aside from Ben. They were all jackasses at our school, and I guess that made my view on boys subjective. "That's fine."

"Good. Now, he wanted to see how the gym looks like, and Coach Norberry said if he wanted to see it, you would have to play the game with him." She looked down at my feet. "Good thing you're wearing sneakers! What period is this again? I keep forgetting."

"It's E period."

My face exploded with light. My new friend, from the Virgin Islands, would be there. Her name is Jane. For some reason, she had to take PE this year, and I don't know why. She's in the same grade as Pat, Riley and me. She is just a ball of fun. She would be in E period PE today! I'm so excited!

"Great! You finished your essay right? I'll tell your F period teacher you will be missing that class because someone is shadowing you all right?"

"OK, Mrs. Howard."

She smiled at me like she was trying to give me some confidence. Three seconds later, Riley walked out.

"Whatcha doin?"

"Well, Isabella*, I am chosen to be a sponsor for a shadow! A guy shadow."

"Eww."

"I know! I hate guys!"

"No, I mean who would want you as a sponsor."

"RILEY!!!"

Mrs. Howard walked out of Mr. Yellow**'s room and told me where to meet this mysterious shadow of mine. So I followed her to the office and hoped it wasn't someone I knew already. Otherwise, it would be deathly embarrassing since I'm no longer the person I used to be, but gotten even worse with my social skills.

I walked into the office and my mouth dropped.

"Kevin?!"

*For those of you who didn't catch on, I called Riley Isabella from Phineas and Ferb because she said "Whatcha doin?" For those of you who didn't get it, you need to watch more Disney, or I need to STOP watching Disney. : P Hoped you liked the first chapter! :D

** and for those of you who haven't read The Choice by Nicholas Sparks, you will be lost :P
