Chapter 1:
This couldn't be true. It just couldn't be true! Emily was standing in front of the poster announcing a school dance. She hated such parties. The popular girls and boys made fun of the unpopular like her. That meant she had the choice between being the loser attending the dance without a date or the loser staying at home.
"Oh my god! Finally the school is doing something important! Not just this boring school stuff." Amber cheered. Amber was the most popular girl at school. Every girl wanted to be like her, except Emily and a few others. Amber and her friends were just thinking about their reputation and not about learning anything. The guys were all running after her like dogs but Emily couldn't understand why. Amber wasn't that pretty just a lot of make-up and money, daddy's money. Not to mention that she was absolutely arrogant.
Emily wanted to leave unseen but unfortunately Amber saw her. "Oh look who's there the biggest loser of the whole school!" Amber laughed. "I wonder if you can find another loser who will ask you out. Oh wait! There is no other loser like you! Let me guess your lame excuse. A loser congress?" Amber's friends laughed hysterically. Emily just hugged her books tighter and turned around left but she could Amber hear saying to her friends: "I will go with Michael."
"Oh my god! When did he ask you? That's so romantic!" One of Ambers dumb friends asked her.
"He hasn't but he will for sure." That was all Emily could hear while she was walking away sad.
'Finally at home, no talk about the stupid dance' Emily thought. The whole day everyone at school was speaking about it. Even her best friend at school: Bernadette. Even she was asked out already by one of the guys from chess club. This made her talk about it for the rest of the day. Bernadette was also very intelligent and just as Emily normally not interested in popularity and dances. Considering Emily's luck of the last few weeks it was obvious that this must happen. Her friend was asked out. Bernadette had asked Emily why she didn't ask one of her teammates or anyone from the chess club. For the young girl the first idea wasn't an option at all. Who should she have asked? Steve? Eddy? Rick? Michael? Not in a million of years Emily thought. She lived with them at the centre. This would be so embarrassing for her. And the guys from the chess club? They were more boys than guys and they were talking about chess the whole time and hated sports. Emily hated chess and loved sports.
Emily entered the apartment. "No I won't ask Melinda, she's too small. I thought of asking Jeannette. She's tall, blonde and very hot." It seemed that Eddy and Steve were discussing who they would ask. "Are you kidding me? The whole day at school you had time to discuss this. Why do you have to continue here?" Emily blurted out. Eddy and Steve exchanged looks. "Come on Emily, it was just announced today. I'm sure someone will ask you out." Steve said not considering the girls temper. Emily got angry. Did they really think she cared about such a stupid dance that much? "I don't care if someone asks me or not. I won't go there. It's just a stupid dance. I'm not that shallow like Amber and her friends thinking they're something special because they have money and the newest clothes." She stormed in her room and slammed the door.
Michael came out of his room and saw Emily storm into her room. He looked at his two teammates sitting on the couch. "Okay give me the short version I have to go to work. What happened?" He asked. "She's just upset. We have a school dance in two weeks and no one asked her out yet. It's not our fault that most people think she's arrogant." Steve said. Michael shook his head he had no time for this he had to go to work. "Okay I'll leave for work" and he left.
Emily was lying on her bed thinking about the dance and Amber. How dare this stupid bitch call her a loser. She was part of a World Championship Team, she was a good tennis player and her grades were high. She wasn't a loser. But on the other hand it made her sad. She had only one friend at school and they weren't really close. Her best friend was still Mariah but she lived so far away and she had no telephone or E-Mail. But luckily Mariah had written in her last letter that she would come next week to visit her. Emily was really looking forward to it. She needed support from a real friend.
The next week
Emily could hardly sleep she hadn't seen Mariah for a whole year. The last week at school had been so hard for Emily. The days felt longer than usual and most pupils started to make fun of her because no one had asked her out. Emily's luck was even bigger than she thought every two days Amber came to the centre asking for Michael. Fortunately Michael was rarely at home. He had lectures 'till 4 o'clock and then he went to work after dinner. This day was the longest of all. Mariah would arrive half past four. Judy had forced Michael to drive Emily to the airport to pick up Mariah. When the bell rang Emily almost ran out of the building. What she saw there made her forget about Mariah for a second.
Michael was waiting in front of the school leaning against his black SUV drinking a cup of coffee. Emily saw Amber walking up to Michael swinging her hips grossly overstated. Emily walked also closer because Michael was there to pick her up or at least she thought that. "Hi Michael" Amber said winding her hair around her finger. "Hi" Was all Michael said. To Emily he seemed lightly confused by Amber. Amber leaned against his car "Did you come to ask me out?" She seemed very sure of that fact but Emily just hoped he would say no or at least that Amber wasn't the reason he came. Almost the whole school was watching this scene.
