Chapter-1

Samantha P.O.V

‘Are you Samantha Collins?’ the boy in front of me asked. I tried to say yes but nothing came out. I just stood there like a mannequin. I was looking down at the ground not finding the courage to look him in his eyes. My hands were getting really sweaty out of nervousness. I felt really self-conscious as everyone’s eyes were on us.

 I was wearing a floral sundress with cute peach colored ballet flat which had a bow in front. I had my red hair hung down my back which almost touched my butt with its natural wave. I always put a minimal amount of makeup which is mascara and lip balm. The boy in front of me wore a white V-neck t-shirt which clung to his body. I could make out his eight packs beneath the t-shirt. He wore black jeans and a black Nike shoes. He had his hair spiked up as always. Gosh he looked hot. Well he looked hot every day.

Oh hey there! You all must be really confused right now. Okay, first of all let’s start with an introduction. I am Samantha Collins, a grade 10 student in Redwood School. I live with my mom, dad and James, my little brother. I have four best friends Mary Nichols, Lucy Hilton, Stephen Gilbert and Brian Smith. The four of them are my life but sometimes I feel like killing them. And right now I feel like killing them. Okay, let me explain. You see this handsome and gorgeous and beautiful and hot and sexy boy in front of me is Damian Stones.  Today makes it four years of adoring him behind his back. Yup, today was the day I fell for him. I never thought my crush for him would last this long. You see, four years back these four annoying people had told me to confess to him. That time I had said that at the fourth year anniversary (yes, I called it anniversary. Got a problem with that?)  Of my crush for him I would confess my feeling to him. I thought that I would move on from him but no, I didn’t. So, as I promised I wrote a letter to him. Yes, a love letter and stuck it in his locker. He saw it probably. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be standing in front of me asking me if I was Samantha Collins. Maybe, some teacher has told him to call me. Yeah, that must be the case. He suddenly took out a white envelope from his backpack.

‘I take your silence as a yes. So, I presume this is yours?’ No, he probably saw the letter. OMG, he must have read it. He cleared his throat and said ‘I think I asked you a question. Is this yours?’ I nodded my head. He stood there looking at me for a while. He looked me up and down. Okay, this is not what I expected. He twirled me around and caught my hair in his hand as if examining it. He stared at me and examined every feature of my face. This is awkward. I didn’t know what to do so I just looked down on the ground. What the hell is he doing? I thought to myself. By now, everyone had gathered around us. He held my face in his hands and came closer, so close that his nose was touching mine. I could feel his breath fanning my face. OMG.OMG.OMG, he is going to kiss me in front of everyone! Than it probably means he likes me too. I think I am about to collapse due to over happiness.

 I closed my eyes waiting for his lips to touch mine. But it never came; instead he said in my ears ‘I don’t like you.’ I opened my eyes. He took a step back and said ‘I don’t like you, Samantha Collins. I never will. You are not my type of girl. I mean look at you, with that kind of face and body you came to me to confess your feelings? God, help me. Hey, I will tell you what lose 50 kilos at least and come back to me. I may give you a shot.’ He winked at me and went with his friends. Everyone laughed at me. Alisa came and said ‘Hey fatso, I respect your courage, I really do.’ She smiled her evil smile and shouted out ‘Hey everyone, let’s hear it for ‘So fat Samantha’!’ Everyone started to laugh even harder and clapped. I ran outside of the school pushing everyone aside. I heard Lucy and Mary calling my name but I didn’t stop. I was hurt. I was rejected because I am fat, because I am ugly. I ran towards my car and went home. There was no one at home. Mom and Dad probably are at work and James at school.
