CHAPTER FOUR: GUYS THINK TOO MUCH

Name: Benjamin Ledgerwood

A.K.A. new kid

I honestly can't believe on my first day of school I was accepted by 3 people. So who cares if everyone makes fun of me for hanging with "losers". At least I have some friends and they're pretty cool to me. They like me for me, and don't just use me as their prize because I'm hot. I'll never forget my ex-girlfriend Corinna Fye. To think that if we didn't move, she'd still be with me just because she can show me off to everyone.

Flashback

Corinna: HOW CAN YOU MOVE?!

Ben: My dad got a new job and it pays more. It's not like I want to leave… it was my dad's choice.

Corinna: mumbles Do you know how hard it is to find someone else who's as hot as you?!?

Ben: Wait WHAT? Wh-What's that supposed to mean? WAIT! Are you only dating me because I look good?

Corinna: NO! no, it wasn't supposed to come out that way

End flashback

And that's basically how it goes from there… you'd think I'd be smarter right? And realize on my own? Well no. There you have it. Period. The end of my corny life story. So it feels good to start over

There were these girls, Amber and Ashley who remind me of Corinna and obviously I realized that if that's what they do (tormenting others and acting stuck-up etc) then that's probably how Corinna must have acted…GOD I'M SO STUPID!

Hmm… I wonder if anyone skateboards as much as they surf… it's pretty boring at home all the time. It'd use to be me, Corinna, Zack, Mandy, and Derek. We'd hang and do stuff after school all the time. Staying at home 24/7 feels weird.

I'm hungry.

Back to Jake…

Miley was in school today since I saw her in 3rd, but there was this kid who was basically in most of our classes (Miley has basically the same classes as me again like last year… it's so weird right?). This kid, Ben… I'm not so sure about him. He seems pretty close to Miles and I don't think I like that… sure he's a fan of mine, but… I guess it's just that Miley factor…

But I'm over her. I've got Rina and I love her… right?

Back to Miley…

…So that's why Lilly and Oliver were acting weird. Man they should have told me

"Hey Miley," someone said.

I turned around and holy shitaki mushroom. It was Jake. WHY DIDN'T LILLY WARN MEEEE.

"Hey Jake!" I said trying to sound happy….but why am I trying so hard? "How was Romania?"

"Amazing. Unbelievably amazing… everyone's friendly; but it's crazy how much you miss home though," he said kind of staring at me sincerely. Did he still like me? No. Why? I saw newspaper clippings about Jake and his movie, life, girlfriends and you wouldn't believe it. ANOTHER GIRLFRIEND. Some random girl who starred as an extra in that new movie of his… what's her name… I can barely see it…Rina…Rina Leach. Pfft. What a name (no offense to any Rina Leach's out there!).

"Hey I-" Jake was cut off there

"You're Jake Ryan. This is awesome dude. You're like…my hero. I'm Ben Ledgerwood. New here." Ben said.

"Nice to meet you," Jake said with a stiff grin, "Well you certainly picked a good tour guide around."

"He didn't really pick Jake… we kinda ran into each other in the office." I answered. "Soo… how's Rina?"

"She's good. She's coming to visit this weekend." He said as he nodded his head and looked off in a distance.

"So we'll get to meet her. That's great." I actually sounded… happy? Wow.

Then the bell rang and class started. End of conversation. For now…
