Lexie's POV
Now it's the next day. Noooooo!! It's school! I hate it! I got out of bed and put on my black leggings with a green shirt that said, "let your smile change the world, don't let the world change your smile." I loved this shirt. It made me feel innocent, when no one bullied me. I braided my hair, then went down and had a New York bagel for breakfast. It was delicious! Better than California bagels.
I brushed my teeth, then grabbed my skateboard and headed out of the apartment. My phone buzzed. I looked at the text Riley sent me. It said, "Hey can u come 2 my house and walk with me this morning?" I responded, "Yes." Then I skateboarded to Riley's house.
She met me outside by her front porch. Then she ran down the steps band we went to school. On the way, we talked and talked. "You know, I'm actually happy that we're friends. At first, I wasn't so sure because of what everyone said about me not being able to sing good anymore. I figured that you would be my friend for the day, then ditch me for someone else." I said.
"No. I wouldn't do that. Everyone here is mean to me too. Well, until you. Where are you from?" Riley asked me. "I'm from a small town in California, called Frazier Park." She asked me if I had any best friends. "Yes, one. Our school bullies were not like these ones though. They didn't want to fight. But we were voted most gossipy school in California!" I informed her. She giggled. "What was your friend's name?" Riley asked me. "Sarah," I said. "I had other friends, but they were kinda two-faced. Like my friend Jenna. She told me that she didn't like the mean girls, but anyone could tell that she's one of them." I said. "She nodded, understanding. "Did you ever have any best friends other than me?" I asked. Riley shook her head. "No," she said, sadly. "Oh," I said.
Riley's POV
I feel kind of bad for Lexie. She was famous, yet treated like crap almost everyday. And the worst part is, it won't be much better here. In fact, it will be worse! I want to be her friend. I'm happy she feels the same way about me.
Now we arrived at school. Bleh.
