My (Fake) Boyfriend.

Chapter 1

I never meant for it to be this way. I just wanted to be that girl, the girl that everybody talks about. The girl that everybody wants to be. I just want to be noticed, be in the in crowd and not be the outsider. And then, he came along. Just out of nowhere, he appeared and helped me out. He plays with girls hearts and breaks them the next day. A Player and A Nerd doesn't work out ,right? I'm just that normal girl who keeps her head down and tries to hold on.

*RING RING*

The sun crept through the window and through the curtains and my eyes opened from the annoying sound of my alarm clock, It's the same noise I hear everyday of life. I turned off my alarm clock and finally silence fills the room. No noises, no sounds, no nothing. It was peaceful for once in my life. Nothing could stop my thoughts from speaking now. Then suddenly, darkness started to fill my eyes, I was falling asleep again.

"NORA! WAKE UP YOU LAZY HEAD!"

My mom called out. I groaned and pulled the sheets over my head. I have officially woken up from my slumber. Great, another day of my life that I love so much. (not) I get up and do the same old thing that I always do. Take a shower and brush my teeth. I put on a white v-neck shirt and dark blue skinny jeans. I braided my brown hair into a messy fishtail and looked at myself into the mirror, all I see was a lonely depressed girl. I'm that girl that no one wants, this girl was a nerd.

I shook my head, I need to stop thinking this way. It's not worth feeling this way, it just isn't, 'You just need to do this day and you can do it Nora. You just have to believe in yourself'. I'd always tell myself. But, who am I kidding? That encouragement never works. Why do I bother myself? Why do I bother to be here? If I could just leave, leave this horrible town.

I walked downstairs and almost ran into my mom's new boyfriend Connor. He had brown eyes and blonde hair, it had to be blonde or else my mom would never even consider him and he was built like a wrestler. He had freckles covering his face that descended down his arms and he always had theses rings on all ten fingers. I guess he's not that bad. He seems father material but then again, how would I know? Its not like I even had a father figure in my life. He walked out on my mom and me. Typical. I don't know what happened to him and I don't plan to. I don't really care for him. All I know is that my father, that bastard that cheated on my mom and walked out on us didn't give a damn about us. And if he doesn't care then why should I? But, Connor actually makes my mom happy. If she's happy then, I guess I'm happy for her.

"Good morning sunshine!" Connor greeted.

I rolled my eyes. Not only was it weird for him to call me that but I also I hate it when people call my sunshine, I just hate that nickname and everyone says it just to annoy me. "Can you please not call me sunshine, my name is Nora and I would like to be called Nora." I replied. He had that guilt look in his eyes and I smiled a half smile.

"Sorry Nora." He apologized. "Would you like some pancakes?" He asked, I nodded. He passed me my plate and I ate like it was my last meal on earth. I usually don't eat like a little pig but, Connor's pancakes are one of the kind, "Enjoy your breakfast Nora." He chuckled staring at me pigging away and walked away. My mom enters the kitchen and starts to kiss Connor on the mouth intensely.

I gagged, "Can you guys please take your making out session out somewhere? I'm trying to eat here."

"Oh shush Nora, you'll do the same thing when you the find a lover" my mum said. I rolled my eyes, I hate it when she does this. She's being trying to hook me up with guys. That maybe I'll date someone and do something with my life, which it was impossible. No guy has ever liked me and never will.

"Whatever mom, I have to get going." I replied as I grabbed my bag and went out to the door.

As I walk, I look around the neighborhood and I started to think what might my future might be. Will I even have a future, will I be happy? Or will I still be that nerd that everyone sees all the time. I don't understand, why does everything have to so hard. Whatever, I'll have to suck it and let it go. The more I get closer to the school, the more annoyed I get. I keep hearing annoying girls giggling or guys hitting on girls. It's a beautiful day, why does everything in life ruin it for me. I sighed and stood in front of my school.
