Okay, so I know I told you that I'd update "tomorrow" like two weeks ago, so I'm very very sorry for not updating sooner. I had J-term at my school and took an AWESOME writing course that's really been helping my writing.
So now that I have more time, I'll be sure to keep this story going. Thanks for sticking with it, and for your awesome reviews! Sorry it's still sort of short. I'll update again when I have a lot more written, so it'll be longer.
Oh, btw IMPORTANT AUTHOR'S NOTE at the end.
Jack self-consciously ran a hand through his chocolate brown hair as he hopped into his sleek dark red Ferrari. His mother gave it to him as a birthday present last year after he got his license, and he'd been driving it ever since. That day in the middle of sophomore year had been the worst day of his life, and he convinced his mom to let him change schools. It hadn't been a problem, considering his mom wanted to sell their old house and move to the next state over for a job opportunity anyway. After getting the largest pay raise she'd received in her entire career, she surprised him with the car. He'd been so sick of being singled out for the way he looked and acted that he started working out and changing his physical appearance. He got a new hairstyle, bought new clothes, and began working out, determined to get rid of everything they'd made fun of.
It started out as a kind of obsessive goal, but after a while he worked hard just because he wanted to. Even his mom was surprised as the extra donuts and years of no exercise melted away from her son's body and was replaced with muscle.
And then the month before senior year started, Jack's mother announced that they had to move back to Seaford because she was being transferred. So they packed up and went back, and even though Jack was the total opposite of what he'd been several years ago, he was still nervous about what everyone would think. At his old school, the girls flocked after him like bees after honey, but they didn't know what he'd been in the past. Puberty had been good to him in the past two years. He grew six inches and started karate, which gave him excellent physique. But he'd finally discovered cockiness and confidence, the best defense for the insecure.
And that's what he was going to use today, on the first day of senior year. And he would show everyone, including Kim, that he was worth something.
So he grabbed his sunglasses and placed them on the bridge of his nose, revving the engine. He remembered the way to school, so finding the big building was no problem. It looked exactly the same, but Jack couldn't help but smirk at the thought that it would be totally different as soon as he walked through those glass doors.
He pulled into an empty parking spot right near the front, making sure everyone saw him as he hopped out of the Ferrari, locking it with the keys over his shoulder. His Ray Bans were still perched on his nose, and he allowed a small smirk on his lips as he sauntered into the school building, his leather jacket billowing behind him.
People-especially the girls-were eyeing him and talking to their friends, watching as Jack made his way into the school office.
"Hi Mrs. Johnson," he said casually, leaning against her desk.
The older woman looked up at him through her tortoise-shell glasses and blinked. "Jack? Jack Brewer? You've changed so much! You look so handsome."
Jack just shrugged. "Yeah, I guess. Can I have my schedule?"
Mrs. Johnson nodded, still looking a little confused. She shuffled through some papers until she finally found what she was looking for and handed it to him. Adjusting his backpack on one shoulder, he strolled out of the office and into the hallway, making his way to the end of the hallway where his locker was. He ignored all the stares and giggles from girls as he walked past and finally got to his locker. There was a girl with long blonde hair that covered her face kneeling next to him, quietly shoving books into her locker.
Something about her sparked his interest, so Jack put on a cocky smirk. "Hey gorgeous. What's your name?"
The girl looked up in surprise, and Jack almost stumbled backwards when he saw her face. It was Kim Crawford.
She looked at him in confusion and something else he couldn't place...fear?
"Jack?" she whispered.
He couldn't move, he was so surprised. This was what he'd been waiting for all this time: the chance to destroy Kim. But she looked so different. She wasn't surrounded by her normal posse of girls, or her precious boyfriend. She wasn't wearing any makeup and had enormous bags under her eyes, but somehow she still looked beautiful. Her usual designer clothes were replaced by a tank top and jean shorts that looked cute but not by any means hot like she used to be.
After a few seconds of awkward staring, Kim averted her eyes and looked down, picking up her books and walking away as fast as she could.
Jack turned and watched as she hurried off, confused at what had just occurred. What had happened while he was gone?
Thanks for all your amazing reviews :) without you guys this story wouldn't exist.
ATTENTION: I have a story on Wattpad ( .com or there's an app for phones), and I would be honored if you guys would read it, comment, and vote.
It's titled dontaskmeplz by kitkatsaymeow: Allie Moore has been texting a mysterious boy for months now. He refuses to tell her who he is; all she knows is that he goes to her school and is a senior, like herself. But though she finds an escape with this boy, she has to deal with an infuriating one at school: Logan Wesley. Mr. Bad Boy and almost stab-worthy, he is the bane of her existence. Though she can't stand him, they are forced to work together when a secret comes out concerning Allie's boyfriend and she has to choose between what she knows and what she wants.
It includes car chases, gangs (though it's NOT a "gang" story), hot boys, and other epic stuff, so check it out. It's not yet completed, but if I see that you guys like it, I'll be sure to update soon. Thank you all for your support!
