Shattered

Chapter 1: The perfect life

  RACHEL's Pov

  

          "Hey Rachel!!" Selena Squeeled, Hugging me and jumping up and down. "Hey guys." I gasped, Selena taking a step back. Rihanna, Amanda and Claire waved, all of them looking fabulous in their expensive and cliquey clothes.

   We strolled into the cafeteria, flipping our hair and batting our eyelashes. "Ew.." Rihanna pointed at some girl's outfit,
"That knitted shirt is so ugly!" We Sashayed over to a table in the middle of the cafeteria.

  "Hey." Cecilia greeted us. "Can I sit with you guys?" Some girl in nerdy glasses and braces stared down at her shoes. "Um, excuse me, but did you know only hot and popular girls can sit at this table." Claire pointed her finger in the direction of the nerd table, "I'm pretty sure Nerd table is that way." We all laughed and smirked as the ugly nerdy girl sniffled, then scurried away.

   I happened to be known as one of the CSP(cute, sassy, and popular!) clique girls at RedPine High. I was ranked third most popular girl at school, and I planed on keeping it that way.
"So, did you guys hear about cheer tryouts? Rachel, you're a dancer, you should totally try out, besides, all the cheerleaders have boyfriends." Selena rested her arm on the table, flipping back her long black hair. "Alright, I'll try out.. When is it?" I asked, I had to make sure it wouldn't interfere with dance.

"In 3 weeks, around 6:00 in the gym." Rihanna was the cheer captain last year, so she would be holding tryouts this year.
"And.. Since you have blonde hair, you'll look even more like a cheerleader, y'know, since like, all cheerleaders pretty much have blonde hair.." Selena took three strands of my perfect straight blonde hair, and started braiding it.

  "Selena! That's soo stereotypical! I mean, not all cheerleaders have blonde hair, I have wavy brown hair, and I'm cheer captain." Rihanna flipped her butt long brown hair, letting it cascade down her shoulder all the way to her hips.

"Whatever. I just can't wait till tryouts!" I had met Selena in middle school, grade 8, and that's when I became popular. I mean, ya, it sucked.. Leaving my other friends behind.. But, it was worth it, hey, haters gonna hate, but that's just my personality, I like bossing people around, and having every boy in the school drooling as you walk by. It wasn't like I was mean to them or anything.. I just stopped answering their texts and hanging out with them. I'm in grade 11 now, so I don't care if they're mad at me anymore.

  "Hey, earth to Rachel! Conner's walking our way!" Claire waved her hand in front of me, snapping me out of my train of thought.

"W-where!" I my eyes flickered across the room. "Right there!" Claire whispered in my ear, pushing me. "Go talk to him!" Selena urged. "But, I don't want to date him!" "He's the most popular guy in school, and you said you have feelings for him, so go ask him out!" Rihanna argued.

  "Alright! I'm going!" I whined, nimbly walking over to Conner and his gang of cute high school boys, all of them happened to be on the varsity football team.  I saw Brandon nudge his shoulder. Brandon, Micah and Nathan walked over to me, forming a mini half circle around me. "Hey, so you and Conner are dating." Brandon stated.

   "What? No, we're not dating!" "Hey she's the girl that likes Conner." Nathan pointed at me. "Go talk to Conner over there." Micah looked over his shoulder, and Conner was standing over there with Nate, and a few other guys.

"Y'know what? I'll talk to you guys later.." I whipped around, rushing back over to my table. "Soo, are you guys going out?" Amanda twirled a strand of her hair.

     "Well, his friends keep bothering me, it's been going on for a few days now.. It's starting to get really annoying. Besides I still haven't gotten over Bradley.." Bradley was my old boyfriend, who had to move to Nova Scotia, he promised one day he'd come back to visit me, but it's been almost a year, we were emailing for a while.. Then we just.. Lost touch.

  "Well, you've got to get over Bradley! I know you two had some great connection, or something, but seriously, get over him! He lied! He's never coming back to visit! I doubt he even moved to Nova Scotia!" Claire shouted.

"B-"-RINNNGGG!!! The bell to head outside rung in my ears, we all stood up, everyone practically clearing a path as we strutted through the school.

  "Listen. Do you have feelings for Conner or not?" Claire stared me in the eye. "Well.. I--"
