Chapter 1:March

It was the beginning of March, another day for ordinary people, something that you can say about me. I may have a rare hair color, but that doesn't mean that I'm rare myself.Red hair, something that you can only find in 2% of people, I never felt like that two percent. My red hair that covers my back, my freckles that you can find everywhere on me, and my green eyes, some would say that they're emeralds, and I would say that they are moss. Everyone would always say that I shouldn't put myself down, but I don't care, they always like to say that I'm as 'Beautiful as a Goddess' also, which I guess is why I was named after one, I never said my name, did I? Well, my name is Athena Glass, a name from someone who is nothing like me, she has wisdom, I do not, she can plan a war, I can not, I laugh when people say I'm like her, as if I'm anything like her!

But I digress, it's the beginning of March, and I have to get ready for another day for ordinary people, a day where I have to go to school, a day where I have to sit there and learn, a day where I talk with one of my few friends. Addie Gross, that's what some people like to call her, but her name is really Addie Cortes, but Kia Cortes didn't like someone with the same last name as her, so she called her Addie Gross instead, and everyone just followed along with her. I think it doesn't bother her anymore, I mean, it did at first, but now she rights it down as if it's her real name. We've been friends for a long time, I think I was 8 when we met. I became friends with her because she also had freckles like me, they're not everywhere on her like mine, but they are on her, she has hair that reminds me of the night sky, and her skin is the moon, with the freckles as the stars. She always liked to wear pink, not everywhere on her, but some pink on her.

Then there is Gracie Brown, she's the rich smart one at the school, the person who seems to know everything, and she knows it, but never really tries to make it seem like she's better than everyone else because of it. She likes to dance and be in plays, so she's in the drama club, not in the 'Smart clubs', which you would expect from her if you know her. She likes to dye her hair different colors also, last week it was blue, I think she said she's gonna dye it again over the weekend, so it's mostly a different color now, she also had lovely blue eyes, she had the sky in them. She wants to do things where she can be herself in them, very free spirited, that's what everyone likes about her.

And Beck Mosley, the girl who follows Kia Cortes everywhere she goes, a sweet girl really, I think she just wants to fit in with something, that something ended up being Kia. She's also Addie's step-sister, shocking I know. And they don't hate each other either, they get along just fine, Beck just doesn't really do anything about what Kia does to,well, anyone really. I just wish she would make Kia stop bullying Addie. But other than that, Beck and Addie look like they can be related, but they're not, she doesn't have any freckles and her hair is longer than Addie's, but other than that, they look a lot alike.

And then last and most definitely least, the classic school bully, Kia Cortes, I kinda talked about her not too long ago, but not a whole lot. She's a girl who wants to make herself seem like she's everything, but is really not much of anything. She came to school one day, and immediately

made herself the 'Popular' kid. Everyone wanted to be her friend, or go out with her, you know how it goes. And she was super mean about it, and when she found out about Addie's last name, she wanted to change it immediately. She has hair that seems like it's going everywhere, so she puts it in a ponytail. Her outfits always seem to be in her cheerleader outfit, but you do get the rare sight of her in something else, which is a plain dress. I don't like her, and never really plan on liking her.

But then the day changed, and everything I knew was different. I know a lot can happen in one day, but I didn't expect this much, and I should tell you all about it.
