Hey guys, I am KickButt26 (weird name, I know,) and this is my first story. I am REALLY nervous, so try to go easy on me?
This story will be like Pretty in Pink (Molly Ringwald movie.) It's about a poor teenage girl who really likes this popular, rich guy and does get the chance to go out with him. But, the girl's best friend is practically in love with her. And, other complications arise too. Oh, and it will not be exactly like the movie (obviously), and it will have some extra stuff I put in. I also haven't seen the movie in probably a year so, yeah. And, it's during this, like, time era.
Now, enjoy!

Kim Crawford awoke to the sound of garbage trucks mulling around outside her window. She groaned and groggily glared at her digital clock, which read 5:39. She groaned again as she got up to get ready for another day at Seaford High.
As Kim got out of bed, she thought of what she was going to wear. The different thing about Kim was that she never shopped at the big brand name stores, she couldn't really afford them, and who wants every single piece of clothing to have the brand name hogging the actual clothes? She loved to shop at thrift stores and find really interesting clothing that she would take and keep it as is, or enhance it by doing what she loved, sewing. Yes, it sounds like an old lady hobby, but it was the one thing she had in common with her mother before she left. It was how she expressed her true self.
She didn't worry about looking perfect for everybody else, just for herself. Sure, she got a few kind comments from some, and hurtful ones from others, but that never made Kim doubt herself. When she finally settled on an outfit, she inspected herself in the mirror, proud of what she saw, especially the sapphire gem on a chain around her neck. Looking at her clock, she walked out of her room, with her backpack in hand, and went to the kitchen.
She took out a pan, which she waited for to heat on the stove, then made some scrambled eggs. Kim also made toast and poured two glasses of orange juice. She placed some eggs and toast on a plate, and walked into the room nearby.
"Dad, wake up! I made breakfast." She said to the sleeping figure on the bed. He slowly woke up after muttering and took the plate with a loving look in his eyes.
"Thank ya, Kimmers. You're the best. You eating too?" her father questioned with a full mouth.
"No, I'm actually kind of late. I'll just grab a piece of toast on the way out. Love you." Kim replied, then hugged her father as he uttered a "You too." She swiftly walked out of his room, into the kitchen, and grabbed a piece of slightly burned bread and put butter on it. Before she walked out the door, she turned around and yelled, "Don't forget your interview today!" She heard a response and shut the door, locked it, then headed off to meet her best friend, Jerry, at school.
Sooooo, liked it? Hated it? I just decided to finally write a story after reading so many, but I guess I got nervous being compared to all of the other awesome ones. So, review maybe? Oh, I also wanted to say that I am not good at the whole outfit-description-thingy, sorry. I also want to apologize if it seems too short, still new here!
