"I hate this school. I can't wait for you to get famous and move to Hollywood. Then you can buy me a house, right by yours of course," Kimberly stated.

"I don't know what you're talking about. I'm never gonna make it." I knew exactly what she was talking about. I have really been getting into modeling lately and my dream is to move to California. Is this too much personal information to be telling you without even telling you my name? Probably.

My name is Addilyn Summers and I am sixteen years of age, or sixteen years old as most people say. I attend Susquehanna Community High School in Pennsylvania and this is my junior year. I have light blonde hair and hazel eyes. I'm also that type of person that celebrates national ice cream day.

"What do you mean you're not gonna make it. You are the most beautiful person I know," Kimberly said. Kimberly has been my best friend since fourth grade after she cut off my pigtails. She has always been the one to encourage me and embarrass me all at the same time.

I responded back with, "Whatever you say Kim."

"Okay, well you might not believe it but I do. Anyways, I have to go to my locker this morning. I need my english stuff." I don't think I have ever seen Kimberly at her locker. I don't even know where it's located. She was more of the 'carry around one folder for all your classes and find a free pencil on the floor' type. She is smart, don't get me wrong, but not necessarily book smart. But somehow she was passing.

"Wow, look at you. Actually being prepared." I started slow clapping.

"Yeah, yeah. I'll see later." And with that she walked away. She didn't get very far until she bumped into someone. I just laughed quietly and continue to shuffle through my locker.

Jack's POV

I was looking down at my friend's phone as we were walking down the hallway when someone bumped into me, completely stopping me in my tracks.

"Oops, sorry Jack!" It was Kimberly.

"Hey Kim. You should watch where you're going."

"Hey, you weren't looking either. Not just my fault."

"I didn't even see you coming. Where'd you come from?" I asked.

She pointed over to a girl standing at a locker. And can I just say, she is hot. Not even hot, more like beautiful. I stare her for a while until I hear another voice.

"Jack. Hey Jack! Hello!" Kimberly was waving her hands in front of my face.

"Oh yeah, hey. Ummm who is that girl?" I asked.

"Addilyn? She's my best friend."

"How come I've never met her?"

"Uhhh, I don't know. I guess I never introduced you guys. Why?"

"Is she single?" I asked, not really caring what the answer was. I'm gonna ask her out anyways.

"Yeah. Why do you want to know?" She asked with a suspicious look on her face.

"Oh no reason, except that she's hot and I'm totally gonna get her to go out with me."

"No you're not."

"Why not? Is she gay or something?"

"What?! She is definitely NOT gay! You just have no balls." She said with a big grin.

"Oh yeah. Bet," I replied.

"Big bet," she said back. It only took me seconds to go round Kimberly over to who I now know as Addilyn.
