Can Change be Good?
I DO NOT OWN Maximum Ride. P.S. Always in Max's POV.
Chapter 1: My Story
Ok, you know all those sappy movies where the nerdy boy is in love with the most popular girl in school and soon gets a huge makeover and soon ends up getting the girl. Well that's my life right now, except for the part that the nerdy boy is MY BEST friend. But of course Fang or should I say Nicholas didn't disown me at first. It kind of just kept building up because first he stopped sitting with me at lunch, then not hanging out with me after school, then not picking me up for school in his crappy pick up truck, soon not anwsering my calls, and then yes you guessed it bulling me with all the other populars. Like today for insistance all the populars approached me after school and threw water balloons full of tomato juice at me. But lucky for me I don't cry easily and I didn't even wince while they did it, I just kept walking home. But wait I bet your wondoring who I am, well I am Maximum Maria-Rosa Batchelor or Maximum Charging off Batchelor, Geek, you stupid experimental mistake, or Queen of Sarcasm. But you can just call me Max and as I already told you or if you just didn't read right I am a geek. I even have the glasses, pimples, and ugly bunny sweater with matching knee high socks. I even always wear pig tails everyday and I don't even know why. I have also been rated the complete outcast of my school. But a least I had F-Nicholas with me. But last week is when my worst nightmare started when he didn't show up to school, so I called his house and his Mom said he was running a fever. But it had to be some fever because the next day he came into school with Travis and Greg (The two hottest guys in school.) struting the halls wearing a black muscle shirt, black cargo pants, and black high tops. He also looked way tanner then normal and cut his normally long hair up to his ears with his bangs just at the tip of his eye's. I was completely shocked on how much he changed that I couldn't even muster up a saracastic remark when he called me Maxie. But for the record if I did it would go across the lines as "Oh Fangie are you studing witch craft again?" or "Sorry kid I don't have any knifes for you to cut yourself with." But again I was shocked and I felt like he wasn't telling me something too because he had the I-have-a-secert look in his eyes. But he refused to tell me what it was. Which leads us to where we are now, in my room throwing everything he ever gave me over my balacony and onto the beach. Like pictures, movies, necklace, etc. But right when I was all done, I forgot that my step dad Jeb would probably be mad that I littered on the beach again. So I quickly grabbed a trash bag and headed down stairs to the back door and picked up everything and threw it in the bag. Then I started making my way down to the water when I heard someone behind me say
"Are you going to throw that into the water?" I quickly turned around to see a girl with long brown hair with pink highlights, wearing jeans and a pink halter top staring at me with a confused look.
"Uh...yeah." I said confused.
"Well you shouldn't do that because you would be hurting the fish." She said and snatched the bag from my hands and ran over and threw it in a trash can.
"Oh...I guess I never thought of that." I said still confused
"Don't worry know one does...Oh and by the way I'm Cassie I just moved next door." She said and extended her hand. I quickly returned the hand shake and replied
"I'm Max." But for a wierd reason her face looked taken a back but soon turned into excitement and back into a calm mask in about 5 seconds.
"That's a really cool name." She said
"Thanks. But you don't have to pretend to be nice to me." I said with a sad expression and took a step back.
"Why?" She asked taking a step forward.
"-sigh- because since your really pretty, your going to be snatched up by the populars right when you enter school tommorow." I said now stepping into the water.
"You mean like the kids who think they own the school." She asked and I just nodded. Then she started laughing and said
"Me popular, that's the most funny thing I heard in years."
"Really?" I asked
"Yeah, because I smell like salt water, like talking to fish, burp like a trucker, and can eat my weight in veggies." She said now gasping for air and I couldn't help it because I started laughing too. By the time we were done we were on the ground with sand sticking to our hair, just looking at the stars.
"You know, if you want you could walk to school with me and I could give you tips on how to annoy the populars." I said and looked over at her.
"Nah, your to nerdy." She said and looked over at me with a smile when she saw my hurt expression. But then she said
"Just kidding I would love too."
"You know I think I like you." I said and stood up.
"Yah of course you do." She said with a fake cocky grin. Which ended up with us laughing again.
"Hey I'll stop by your house around 7:30 tommorow, ok." Cassie said
"Cool." I said and waved while she walked away. But while I was walking to my room I couldn't help but think that everything is going to be ok for once.
Ok Review and tell me if you like it so far because I want to know the peoples thoughts on if I have a should continue. Also I am still writing 10 years later so don't worry for those fans out there. But also a little sneak peek about what will be happening next chapter is Cassie will reveal a secert to Max that will change her life forever and really start the story. (Like action and jealousy and stuff.) So Review.
