Chapter 1

Chapter 1:

"Please Dani! You never leave your house! All you want to do is stay in your room! Please come hangout with us just this once! It'll be fun, I promise." 

I promise. That's what she always said. She always says that I'll meet new people and that I'll have a great time. Every time I go out and do something with her it always results in me not having fun.

"Jackie, I told you I don't want to go I'm tired."
I say.

"You always say you're tired."

I push my hair out of my eyes and sigh. It's true that I always say I'm tired but I'm not lying. I'm  tired. It's not my fault. I can't sleep. No matter how hard I try all I do is lay there for hours waiting for my body to shut off but it doesn't. Most of the time I'll just end up reading or writing. It helps pass the time.

"Dani please, if you come tonight I won't ask you again. It'll be a lot of fun and maybe you'll meet a cute guy! It's a Friday night and all the hot guys go and hang out at The Fields tonight!"

The fields is this really nice place , well not really nice, but it's cool I guess. It has a movie theatre and stores and places to eat. It's on the nicer side of town so it's really pretty at night time and there's some cool places to hangout at that not a lot of people know about.

"Fine, I'll go."

"Dani plea- Wait did you just say yes?"  Jackie smiles.

I roll my eyes and nod my head as she squeals.

"Ok cool! We're meeting Lacey, Tara, and Evie there in 20 minutes so get ready!"

"I'm ready now." I say.

"You can't wear that! You never know when you'll see a hot guy and right now you look like a slob. Let me pick out something for you."

I groan as Jackie looks through her closet to find an outfit for me. I honestly don't care what I look like because in the end none of the guys think I'm attractive and all my friends are hotter than me so there's no point.

"Dani, while I'm looking for something for you to wear go fix your hair and don't say it looks fine because it doesn't!"

I sigh again and go over to her mirror and take my hair out of the messy bun. I throw my long, wavy brown hair and put it in a high ponytail. My hair is being annoying and there are so many bumps I get frustrated and I take it out and fix it until it looks decent.

"Here put this on, I'm going to go get my makeup so I can fix yours, it looks like you fell asleep with some on."

She walks out of the room and closes the door  and I look at the outfit she picked out. There's  a black v-neck tank top from Brandy Melville with some high waisted shorts. I usually would tell her I'm not wearing this but I'm too tired to argue with her so i put the top on and the shorts and look in the mirror. My boobs look huge in this shirt and these shorts make my butt look bigger than usual.

"Wow, you look hot." She laughs. I turn around to see Jackie holding her make up and I laugh with her. I sit down on her bed and she starts with eyeliner and ends with Chapstick.

I look in the mirror and I feel weird because I don't look like myself.

"Are you ready to go?" She asks.

"Almost." I say as I put my on my black converse.

As I'm tying my shoe my green flannel lands on my lap and I look up.

"You look like you don't feel comfortable so here's your flannel. It'll look cute."

I finish tying me shoes and put my flannel on leaving it open so you can see the tank top. Luckily it's not that hot right now since its night time.
