Erica's POV
"You take a deep breath and you walk through the doors
It's the morning of your very first day
You say hi to your friends you ain't seen in a while
Try and stay out of everybody's way
It's your freshman year and you're gonna be here
For the next four years in this town
Hoping one of those senior boys will wink at you and
say
You know I haven't seen you around, before" Sarah sang.
It wasn't like that, at all. I was the one they laughed at and tripped, the one they pranked and made jokes about I was the geek, the nerd and the ugly girl no-one likes. Even if someone liked me most of them would be to scared to talk to me. I only had one friend.
"'Cause when you're fifteen and
Somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
And when you're fifteen feeling like
There's nothing to figure out
But count to ten, take it in
This is life before you know
Who you're gonna be
Fifteen"she continued
Yeah I know that feeling. Being ignored then suddenly someone says they want to be with me. They love me! I could hardly believe my ears. They were right it was unbelievable.
"You sit in a class next to a redheaded Abigail
And soon enough you're best friends
Laughing at the other girls
Who think they're so cool
We'll be out of here as soon as we can
And then you're on you're very first date
And he's got a car and you're feeling like flying" my best friend sang out.
I never had that feeling. I wish I was more like her.
"And you're mamma's waiting up and you're thinking
he's the one
And you're dancing 'round your room when the night
ends
When the night ends"
My mom would never wait up on me. She doesn't care that much. And by the time my first date came along none of them really knew or remembered me.
"'Cause when you're fifteen and
Somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
When you're fifteen and your first kiss
Makes you head spin 'round but
In your life you'll do things greater
Than dating the boy on the football team
But I didn't know it at fifteen"
My first kiss was at 17, so was Sarah's. I agree with the last bit though
"When all you wanted
Was to be wanted
Wish you could go back
And tell yourself what you know now"
Too true, this girl finally sings some sense.
"Back then I swore I was gonna
Marry him someday
But I realized some bigger dreams of mine
And Abigail gave everything she had to a boy
Who changed his mind
And we both cried"
That abigail sounds a bit like me. WOOPS.
"'Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you
they love you
You're gonna believe them
And when you're fifteen, don't forget to look before you
fall"
I have learned not to always believe people and trust them.
"I've found time can heal most anything
And you just might find who you're supposed to be
I didn't know who I was supposed to be
At fifteen"
I doubt this was what I was meant to be. I am a monster.
"la la la la la...la la la la la...la la la la la
Your very first day
Take a deep breath girl
Take a deep breath as you walk through the doors"
I sighed and finished watching the video Sarah uploaded a year ago. I miss the good old days when I got laughed at or ignored. Vampire life is no fun!
