You probably all thought I was either dead or that I had forgot about this story, but both are false and I have been waiting patiently for my inspiration to come back. I can't say how long it will take to finish this story or how fast I'll update, because for the first time in my FFnet career I am going to spend time writing my stories to be the best they can be.

~Halo.

I scoured the halls from Kemp, but I couldn't find the curly haired brunette anywhere. I know that he has to be around here somewhere, but I just don't know where to look. Maybe, I should ask Chris Polvert? But then again he might accuse me of hitting on him which wouldn't help my case.

"Massie, why are you in such a frenzy?" Cam Fisher asked as he stood in front of his locker. 'It would have been a lot simpler if you fell for Cam, because he is so much easy to find' I think in my head as I walk across the hall to greet him.

"You haven't by a chance seen Kemp, have you?" I asked staring into his two different eyes. 'No, his eyes would have freaked me out too much so that would have never worked.' My thought inside my head floated around my brain as I waited for his answer.

"I think, I saw him head to the cafeteria, why are you looking for him?" Cam asked intrigued by my sudden interest in his friend.

"Oh, you know just have to tell him that I love him not Derrick," I said as I turned on heel towards the cafeteria. "Typical teenage-girl stuff, you know."

As I made my way to the cafeteria, I couldn't help but go through a mental check in my head. 'Makeup? Flawless. Teeth? Clean and minty. Clothes? Best dressed in the whole entire school. Hair? Curled to perfection. Shoes? Tall and pointed.' Everything was right, nothing could go wrong.

I spot Kemp, sitting at a table by himself with his pencil and paper drawing a picture for Art class probably the only class he does his homework in. I can't help, but feel sorry for him to be all alone at the huge table. This is my perfect opportunity to talk to him about everything.

"Hey baby, sorry I was late." I overheard a voice say as I was near inches away from talking to Kemp. I turned to see, none other than Dylan Marvil my archenemy.

Kemp stood up and greeted her with a kiss on the lips. 'I can't believe he chose that slut' I thought before I realized that I'm still standing here in front of them staring at them. I quickly leave the cafeteria embarrassed and confused on where I stand with Kemp.

I walk down the busy hallways towards my English class, which I had totally forgot that we have a speech today. I haven't practiced my speech, because I have been too busy concentrating on gymnastics and stupid boys. As I take my seat in the front row third seat from the door, the bell rings indicating the start of class.

"All right today we are doing our speeches, so that's begin with," Mr. Wade paused to scan the row of students he had the pleasure of sentencing them to their death by forcing them to go first. 'Teachers they always love making us suffer' I thought. "Massie Block."

Dread being trapped in the front row, right in front of his view of sight and dread being unprepared for this speech. 'Looks like I'm winging this' I thought as I stood up from my desk and headed over to the podium.

"Now, for those of you who have procrastinated this assignment. Remember, it is a speech telling someone dear to you, a secret you have been afraid of telling or standing up for yourself," Mr. Wade said as he made his way over to my former seat and sat down. "Now, everyone please take notes on the speeches we see today, because that is also apart of your grade."

Everyone started to pull out their notebooks and pencils or pens to write down notes on my speech. I had an outline of course, but I can't read any of it unless I want to deduct points from my grade which I don't. I used to not be so studious, but now I work hard to earn A's in all of my classes.

"Whenever you are ready, you can begin Miss Block."

"What if I became the person you wanted me to be?" I paused at the beginning of my speech for the question to sink a little in their minds. "If I would work hard enough to become a doctor, or a lawyer would I be a good enough for you?" I looked at each person in the room, and I could see that I had them in the palm of my hands.

"Would that satisfy your constant need to bring me down? I should try a little harder, because if I do then I will accomplish all the goals you have set forth me," Again I had paused this time to shred a little time off the clock. "What if I failed to see the dreams of my own to achieve yours for you? After all, I am your own flesh and blood so it's only natural I finish off the dream you failed to reach in your life." I took a quick glance at the clock and noticed I still have one more minute to wow the crowd.

"What if, I never existed? Maybe that is the only way to stop you from comparing me to you. I'm not a doctor, or a lawyer, or even an Olympic gymnastic champion, but I am Massie, your daughter and that should be good enough for you. Respect me as the individual I was born to be." I said with the last final execution, which had finished my speech. The class of course clapped, not because it was the greatest speech they ever heard, but because that is what your supposed to do after someone gives a speech.

"Well, that was very well done. Although it wasn't the best structured speech it was definitely a heartfelt speech that delivered it's purpose," Mr. Wade said as he stood up to let me sit down in my rightful seat again. I happily sat down in my seat glad that I no longer had to worry about giving my speech unlike everyone else in my class who still have all yet to go. "I want to give an extension to everyone else, because I want all of your speeches to be like the one Massie Block just delivered. It maybe as long or as short as you want it to be, but nevertheless make it about someone. Miss Block, you will get extra credit for giving me this grand idea."

'Looks like I'm back to winning.' I thought evilly inside my head, and I couldn't help but smirk visibly. It's time for me to regain my title back, and this time I'm not playing games.

Review?
