Alina

Chapter one: The Punchline

A/N the picture up above is what I imagine Alina looking like.

Alina
"Wake up Alina!" I woke up suddenly to my mom calling out to wake me up. I looked at the clock. It was 6:23AM. Wait. I NEED TO GET UP! I jumped outta bed  immediately putting on my uniform for school, and grabbed by book bag. Running down stairs and grabbing a piece of toast, I ran to school.

When I got to school I immediately looked at my watch. 7:00AM. On time. I walked into school going to my locker, and getting my stuff for English Class. When I closed my locker, I was face to face with the girl I hate with all my heart, Grace Loclan. With her long brown curls, fair skin, and green eyes, she was the most beautiful girl at school. And the meanest. I had witnessed it first hand. When ever she thought no one was paying attention, she'd go to sweet as sugar, to cold as ice. But the thing is, someone was always watching. I could see them outta the corner of my eye, as I glared at Grace. They smiled when I backfired at her, and for the longest time, I never knew who they were. Until today. "Hey alien!" Grace said, snapping me back to reality. I glared at her, as she looked around innocently, batting her eyelashes. "first day of all, my name is ALINA! Second of all, why are you here?" I said as I looked at her with hatred. She then glared at me saying, " Aww but I thought you liked me? Oh well, it doesn't hurt me. Like I'd be friends with you. Ha! The thought of it makes me laugh." Hurt I walked away.

Then I them. Him. He looked at me knowingly, like he knew something no one else knew about me. A secret. And for some reason, that made me smile. As I looked at him, he started walking towards me. Wait. He's walking. Towards me. Oh no. As he walked towards me, I composed my self. I would NOT freak out. " Hey Alina!" He called out as he walked towards me. Wait, do I know him? I knew he was one of the popular guys, but I didn't know his name. Hmmm..... "Alina! ALINA!" A voice said, making me focus on it. When I saw his face up close I immediately knew  his name. Jason Eirlen, the school popular boy, and my next door neighbor. " Hey! Glad you remembered my name!" He said sarcastically. "I did!" I said defensively. "It just took me a minute." I mumbled quietly that you couldn't hear. He sat there talking to me, like we were old friends. But in reality, I've never talked to him. "Hey Jason!" I heard someone yell. I looked around to find Drew calling out to Jason..I saw him running to us, talking to Jason, As he ignored me, I studied his face. His brown hair, and blue eyes. He saw me staring and smiled at me. I blushed and ran away.

As I walked into class, I heard Jason and his friends, talking. About me.
"Hey Jason! Who was that girl you were talking to in the hallway? She was ugly." I heard someone say. Tears threatened to fall out, but I kept them from falling. " Shut up dude. You don't know what you're talking about."
"I think I do."
"I think you don't."
"Whoa dude. Calm down. It's just A joke." He said carefully.
"Yeah, well I don't think it's very funny." Jason said running out of the room, seeing me crying. His eyes widened when he saw me. He hugged me, kissing my forehead.

" It's okay Alina."
