The Untold Story of a People Pleaser [ON HOLD]

Saved By the Prince.

                                                                Chapter 1 'Saved by the Prince'

 "Carry this." said May as she dropped her Juicy Couture handbag into my lap.

 I sighed as I picked it up and followed her down the hallway. Now see ; when I say "follow" her down the hallway, I really mean avoid being trampled by a bunch of guys trying to smack her ass.

"Oh boys, stop it!" May said playfully as we reached the cafeteria.

 She held out her perfectly manicured hands to me motioning for her bag. I gave it to her carefully avoiding to break her nails.

  While May continued flirting with the boys I snuck a glance at my boyfriend. Well..see he's really my boyfriend, he just doesn't know we're dating. Who am I kidding, I don't have a boyfriend! I mean look at me , tall, unmanageable curly brown hair, acne.. the list could go on! The boys name is Jamie , he's on the Varsity football team. He's the perfect guy, great grades, student government , Humane Society , he's perfect! I sipped my chocolate milk as I daydreamed.

"Amber!" May yelled as she snapped her fingers.

"My lunch isn't going to buy itself! Get to it!" she said as she rolled her eyes.

 I stood up in a hurry and walked to the lunchline. 'Oh great'  I thought to myself. I was standing right behind Jamie! 'Nice one May ' I thought while I began to buy her food.

   While dragging my tray across the rack I remembered I had no more money. I used my last five on buying May her lipgloss! I fumbled in my purse searching for spare change. I started to panick when my prince charming came to save me. Jamie walked back into the line, flashing me a dimpled smirk.

"Here I'll pay for her." Jamie said to the lunch lady. I almost died.

 "Thank you so much Jamie. I mean h-how did you know I needed more money?" I said.

"Honestly, I saw your face when you looked into your purse. I must say it was terrible!" Jamie said as he laughed.

Automatically I started to blush and look around nervously.

"Yeah I know, my face must've been terrible! Wait, no that's not what I meant!" I stammered nervously.

"Don't worry about it. I know what you're sayin'." he said while flashing me another one of his gorgeous smiles.

 I returned the smile and walked back to my table. 'My face looked terrible?! What was I thinking?' I wondered while walking back.

  "What took you so long?" May said as she snatched the tray from my hands.

"Oh ya know, lunch line traffic." 

"Oh really? I saw you and loverboy. You were practically a tomato the whole time!" she said while laughing.

That made me blush even more. I sighed to myself and replayed the whole scene in my head while May finished up her lunch. 

                                                                 ****

 "So, tell me about loverboy." May said while walking down the hallway.

 "May, I already told you. His name is Jamie. Jamie Reed."

  "Right...anyways, what do you like so much about him? He's not even that cute. I mean c'mon his dimples are great, but I'll pass on everything else."

"May, he's the perfect guy! We would totally look great together for prom."

"Dream on sister." 

 We entered the classroom and took our seats. Jamie smiled at me as I took out my materials. I smiled shyly and glanced at my notes. Mr. Henson began to write notes on the board. I was busy copying the notes when I noticed a note on my desk. I looked around the classroom before opening   it. Before I even had the chance to open it, Mr. Henson called my name.

"Miss Amber. What does viscosity mean?"

"Oh great ." I thought. The moment I'm not paying attention he decides to call my name.

"Um , sir? Can you please repeat the question?"

"Viscosity. What does it mean?"

"Mr. Henson if I may say so , Amber doesn't know the answer because she was too busy passing notes to Mr. Loverboy Jamie Reed." said May.

"Oh, and it means the resistance of a fluid." she said while glaring at me.

The entire class erupted into laughter. The boys began to call Jamie loverboy while the girls pointed at me and giggled. I was surprised to see May joining them. I looked down into my lap embarrased.  I continued to take notes when the bell rang.

"Saved by the bell." I thought to myself as I hurried to my locker.

As I was getting my backpack and books from my locker Jamie arrived.

"Listen, I'm sorry about the whole scene at class I didn't--"

"No it's fine. I-I mean it wasn't your fault at all. It was totally mine."

"No it's mine. I shouldn't have passed you a note in the first place!"

"It's okay. I'll see you tomorrow. Kay?"

I close my locker and walk to the bus lot while holding back tears. While whiping my eyes I see May in the parking lot. I start to walk up to her to say bye but stop in my tracks. I watch dreadfully as she kisses Jamie.
