I take a deep intake of breath, ready to plaster a smile on my face.

The chatter of annoying freshman rings in my ear as I pass by their lockers. None pay attention to me, but that won't be for long.

I slowly walk through the crowded hallways as everyone makes a path for me.

I know what you're thinking, but trust me, I'm not popular. People know me for my kindness, and for that they're nice to me too.

I never usually have to ask for somebody to move out of my way because they do it anyways.

It's nice, but it gets annoying when I get called 'popular'.

I just like to see myself as a normal 17 year old.

Once I reach my boring, grey locker, I put in the combination. Right when I open it, a book flys out and hits me on the head. Ow.

I pick it up and shove it into the messy locker. A mess just like my life. Ha.

"Hey bitch!" The familiar scent of blueberries, yes blueberries floods my scent.

"Hi Kelci!" She throws her arm around my shoulders, towering over me.

Meet Kelci. She smells like blueberries and is one of my closest friends, besides Elijah. Speaking of Elijah, here he comes.

"Omg there's Elijah. Act natural, act natural." Kelci has had a major crush on Elijah for over a year now. She doesn't make it obvious that she likes him, surprisingly, but she talks about him a lot to me.

I find it really cute and totally ship them. I mean, how can I not ship my two beautiful friends?

"Hey Kelci, Bella."

"Hey did you do the homework?"

"Yeah Elijah did you do the homework?" Kelci repeats what I just said. She tends to do that a lot.

Both their builds tower over me. I'm only 5'3, so they're not even that tall, just tall to me.

"Yeah, I did. I'm sure I got them all wrong though." I nod my head at Elijah but Kelci giggles. I roll my eyes. She makes it so obvious.

I take out my books and whatnot while Elijah and Kelci talk to each other.

"Hey, Bella did you hear about Axton coming back to his normal classes?" I bring my attention towards Elijah as I close my locker.

"What? I thought he wasn't coming out of in school suspension for another week." Just as I said that, the doors burst open and in walks the devil.

You see, I'm a nice person, but people like Axton piss me off. He thinks he's higher than everybody because he is good looking. He plays with girls. Girls come up to me everyday with their boy problems and most of them involve Axton fucking them and then leaving them in the dust.

Besides Axton walks Caleb. Caleb was nicer than Axton, he didn't have a new girl every week.

I turn around and close my locker.

"I don't get why everyone adores him, he's rude."

"It's cause he's a hot piece of meat." Kelci winks at me and I shake my head.

"I've seen better." I'm lying. He's honestly one of the hottest guys I've ever seen, but I would never admit that.

People like me and him don't get along. Polar opposites never attract. He's the devil, I'm the so called angel. He's a dick I'm nice. See? Complete opposites.

He's still walking down the hallway, in what seems like slow motion.

I roll my eyes at him. Why is he walking like that?

"You know, I feel like you and Caleb would really connect. He's so nice, I sit next to him in Chemistry. Maybe you two can have some chemistry." She winks at me and I chuckle.

"I wish." I then walk away with my friends and we make way to our classes, forgetting about Axton and Caleb altogether.

A short few hours later, it's not time for lunch.

"Oh my god, hurry up Bella!" This is a daily routine for me, my friends, and the lunch people.

I can never decide what to get and the lunch people dread feeding me in line.

"Ummm... stop rushing me!" I ponder the choices. Pizza or spaghetti, "I'll have a..." before I can answer they give me pizza. I guess they got fed up with me. Eh, it's okay I was going to get pizza anyways.

"Jesus Christ it's about time." Elijah greets me when I reach the table, waiting for Kelci to come over.

Kelci finally comes and we chatter amongst ourselves, mainly talking about the gossip and argue about random stuff.

When I finish, there's about half the pizza left. I'm not hungry, so I decide to throw it away.

When I get up two throw it away however, I trip on something and fall onto my tray.

I get up and look behind me to see Charli with her foot out. Charli is the basic popular mean girl.

"Oops. You should watch where you're going next time." At this point, everybody was quiet and watching my next move.

Instead of making a scene like I desperately want to, I calmly wipe the pepperoni off of my clothes and walk to the bathroom.

But, I am far from calm once I reach the bathroom.

The tears fall down my face and I frantically wipe them off, afraid of somebody coming in here.

I look in the mirror and see a broken girl, but that's not what anybody else sees.

I hear footsteps and plaster on a fake smile expecting one of my friends to be coming.

But, the person who comes in is the last person I'd expected.
