A/N: I don't own anything besides the idea.
Ten years ago...
Emily sat under a tree at the park. She knew the other kids were making fun of her. She knows her clothes are old and worn out. She knows her hair is messy. She knows the dirt on her face makes her look ugly. But she also knows she can't do anything about it.
"Look at her, she's so ugly"
"Haha look at her pig tails, i bet her mom did them"
"her mom probably picked out her clothes too"
Emily gets confused. She thought everyone was laughing and making fun of her but she is most definitely not sporting pig tails. She looks up and spots three boys older than her surrounding a little blonde girl. Emily is now full of rage. She doesn't care that people make fun of her, but she doesn't like to see other kids getting bullied.
Emily marches over to them and gets there just in time to catch the last words they say to her. "just get away from here" one of the guys pushes her with great force. Emily catches the girl before she falls to the ground. Once she is sure the other girl can properly stand, Emily lets go and steps back. The blonde girl turns around and sees Emily for the first time. She looks at the girls attire and wild hair.
Emily is sure the blonde girl will be disgusted by her. She turns around to leave but a small hand on her wrist stops her from going any further.
"Wait," Emily turns around to face the other girl. "Thank you" the blonde girl then stands on her toes and gives Emily a peck on the cheek.
Emily is confused with the girl's actions. She has grown up thinking that everyone hates her. The fact that this girl was thanking her gave her a boost of confidence in herself.
"Don't believe anything those guys said." Emily tells her.
"But it's all true" the blonde girl says with her head down.
"No it's not." Emily states firmly. The blonde girl looks up and Emily finally sees her eyes for the first time. "You have really beautiful eyes" Emily tells her.
The blonde smiles and Emily's lip twitches slightly upward. Suddenly Emily is aware of that she has been at the park longer than she intended. "I have to go. My parents don't know that I'm here."
Emily begins to turn around but is stopped once again by a hand on her wrist. "Thank you again."
Emily nods and runs off.
That afternoon was one of the worst afternoons in her life.
But that week, was the best week of her life.
Present day...
Hanna's POV
First day of Senior year. My family went to California during the summer, like we do every year, and I took advantage of it to change my look. I lost a lot of weight, changed my wardrobe, and worked on getting my hair healthier. All of my friends seemed to like it, although Alison didn't look very impressed. She took one look at me and carried on with an argument she was having with Spencer. Those two are always butting heads. Now we are all together once again. We all have the same English class together so naturally we sit together. The cute teacher, Mr. Fitz, is currently talking about what we will be doing this year.
Fifteen minutes into class, the door opens and two gorgeous girls walk in the room. They are obviously new because I have never seen them here before. In this town, everybody knows everybody.
The first one was a blonde girl. She was wearing some jeans, a blue jean jacket over a blouse, and a white beanie on her head. She actually pulls off the look. The other girl is a brunette. She is wearing dark jeans with a white T-shirt and a black Adidas jacket over it. She looks sporty, which totally suits her. Her skin has a nice tan and her dark hair falls gracefully on her shoulders.
She is beautiful.
"Can I help you?" Mr. Fitz's voice breaks me out of my daze.
"Yeah, we're supposed to be in your class this period." the blonde girl answers. She has an cute accent making me wonder if the other girl has an accent as well.
"What are your names?"
"Samara and Emily Fields" the blonde one stated gesturing at the brunette when she said Emily.
"Ah yes here you are." Mr. Fitz said looking at the attendance list. He handed them a copy of the book we will be reading this week. They take their seats at the very back of the room and continues talking.
Halfway through the lesson, i risked a glance at the brunette. She was looking right at me. I turned back at the front of the room, knowing that my cheeks were probably tinted pink. Alison noticed because she looked at me and then glanced at the new girl. Once the period ended we all got out of the classroom.
The next two classes were boring. The teachers just told us the plans for the semester then let us have the rest of the time for ourselves. Everyone was gossiping about the new girls. By the time lunch came around, everyone was still talking about them.
"So apparently the new girls are gay." Alison stated while sitting down at our lunch table.
"Really?" Spencer asks
"Yeah, Noel was hitting on them and they rejected him. Told him they were gay and left him in the middle of the hallway." Ali stated.
"Well it seems that no one cares." Aria said "Everyone is going crazy about them."
"Who wouldn't. They're hot" Ali stated.
"Are you saying you are willing to go out with one of them?" Spencer asked.
"Yeah why not?"
"I bet you are just going to do it to gain even more popularity and stay queen bee of the school."
"Oh please Spencer, I don't need to date one of them to stay on top of this school." Ali says with confidence, "Besides, they were going to come chasing after me anyways. They always do."
"What if they're different?" Aria asks.
"Aria, I can assure you, i will have the sporty girl wrapped around my finger by the end of the month."
"Why the sporty one?" i blurt out.
"Because she seems harder to get than the blonde one. And i like a challenge" she tells us "why? Do you have a problem with it? Do you have a crush on her?" she asks with an eyebrow raised.
"N-No, of course not" i stammer out.
"Good, because she wouldn't look twice at you. You might have changed your look over the summer, but that doesn't mean anyone is going to take interest in you." Ali says things like that to me all of the time. I sort of expect it from her but that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt.
Just then, the new girls enter the cafeteria and start walking towards the lunch line.
"Watch this" Alison says.
Both girls were nearing our table when all of a sudden Alison stands up and bumps into Emily. Ali pretends to lose her footing making her fall against the sporty brunette. Emily places her hands on Ali's waist making sure she doesn't fall over.
"Oh my gosh, I am so sorry, i didn't see you there."
"It's fine" Emily tells her letting her go.
"I'm Alison Dilaurentis." she tells her with her charming smile.
"Emily" she says "and this is Samara." she gestures to the blonde.
I look at them confused. They do not look charmed. If anything, they look annoyed.
"We have to get going" Emily says after a couple of seconds. They leave without saying anything else to Ali.
By the time school ends, we are all standing around Alison's locker waiting for her to get her things so we can go home.
"I still can't believe they didn't fall all over you" Spencer teases making Ali fume with anger. "What happened to the whole 'No one can resist me' charm of yours?"
"Listen Spencer, Emily will be mine." Alison slams her locker shut.
"You want to keep your voice down? They are coming this way." Aria whispered.
We all turned around and sure enough, Emily and Samara were walking down the hall. When they were a few steps past us, Alison grabbed my pen and threw it at Emily's back. It landed on the ground and Emily turned around and stared at the pen with a confused expression on her face.
"Jeez Hanna you could seriously hurt someone if you aren't careful with your stuff." Alison says loud enough for Emily to hear.
"But I-I didn't..." I look towards Emily and she is busy picking up my pen to see me stutter.
"Whatever Hanna." Alison walks over to Emily. "I am so sorry about my friend. She doesn't realize pens can seriously hurt people." Emily just nods at her.
Ali tries to take the pen from Emily, but Emily shifted slightly to avoid her hand grasping for the pen. She walks towards where Aria, Spencer and I are standing.
"Hanna?" she questions looking at me. The other two girls step away a little while i nod my head. Emily holds out her hand with my pen. I take it from her slowly. I could have sworn i felt tingles when her skin grazed mine. She looks into my eyes and i get lost in her chocolate ones.
"You have really beautiful eyes." she whispers. I look down and stare at her black converse trying to prevent the blush from coloring my cheeks.
"Thank you" i say a little shyly. "I'll see you around Hanna" I look up and she gives me a charming smile before she turns and catches up to Samara and continues to walk down the hall.
This is a new story that wouldn't leave my mind. I like Samara so I thought I would include her in the story. I also love Claire Holt's accent so I had to put it in there.
Let me know what you think. Should I keep going? Will anyone read it?
