waking up for school is the hardest thing i had too do. Especially on a friday. I rolled out of the left side of my bed and picked up my watch that was laying on my cabinet. It read '8:15'. I gasped. I shot up and ran too my door. I flung it open and ran down my deserted corridor. I stopped outside my older brothers bedroom then opened the door. There he was, laying there asleep.
"JUSTIN! DO YOU KNOW THE TIME?" i screamed at him while watching his life-less body become a little more alive. "ITS QUATER PAST 8" i screamed again. He shot up.
"SHIT" he yelled while struggling out of the tight bed covers that were wrapped around him. Justin obviously was my older brother, he is 17 but could easily pass for 20. He drove me to school every morning as he was in sixth form and me, well i was just 14 and in year 9. I ran back into my bedroom and flung open my wardrobe. I needed to find something to wear. I pulled on some black jeans and a blue blouse that tucked in perfectly. I stared at myself in the mirror. I scraped my hair back into a messy ponytail and sighed. Could i ever look nice?
"paige, are you coming to school today?" Justin shouted impateintly. I picked up my bag and slammed my door shut.

We finally pulled into school at half past. I stepped out the car, slammed the door and stared up at the daunting school that lay before my eyes. It looked like something out of a horror movie. With everything so old-fashioned. A single bell awoke me from my daydream. I turned around and Justin had already vanished. I sighed. I pushed myself forward into a slow walk. My mind raced, what would today bring? The school was quiet by the time i had enetered. Everyone was in tutorials. I looked down at my watch, tutorial ended in 10minutes, was there any point in going? I said no and decided to lurk in the girls bathroom until the bell ringed again. This is not something i'd usually do. See, i'm one of them weird kids. You know? In class there is always that weird kid that sits in the corner. Not talking, finishing work/tests an hour early. I was one of them. Nobody really noticed me, i was just kind of the invisible one. I wasn't classed. I was a nobody. I looked in the mirror and tugged at my auburn brown hair. It always looked so dull and dead. My hair was natural. It was in dreadful waves. Not to mention it was in a low ponytail, i blew a strand of hair out my face and scrambled in my bag, in search of my lipbalm. The bell rang, it startled me. I dropped my bag on the floor and everything rolled out. The loud roar of students piling out of classes made me feel vunreable. I gathered my stuff and walked out of the bathroom. The corridors of Strickhale Academy were unbareable. I finally made it too my lesson. I stared at the cieling to regain some feeling. Then my eyes fell upon my book as i scribbled down nonsense awaiting the clock to strike 12.

Lunchtime always reminded me of who i actually was. A nobody. While everyone found there groups sat down and giggled for the hour. I sat there behind the football courts drawing. There was one thing i was drawing in paticiular. It was him, Huddow, Alex Huddow. Alex Huddow was the populariest boy in the school. His charm, his looks, his muscles. Everything about him made the girls drool. I knew everything about him, since he was my brothers best friend. I don't think he even realises that i exist. He would never know that i existed but i didn't care. He was more into girls that had a name, like cheerleaders, gymastics or dancers. Not random stalky girls, like me.
"HEY YOU." shouted an un-welcoming voice from behind me.
I turned my head to see Vivian, India and Sav. Also known as, 'VIS'. They call themsleves 'VIS' as not only is it the biginning of all the first names but also as 'VIS' means force; power. Theses girls are the popular girls in school. They act, look even smell easy. They think they have 'power over everyone. Yet, all boys drool over them.
"are you gonna answer me or what"? laughed Vivian (the leader)
"u-ur, i d-d-dunno" i stuttered
"little miss stutter box" laughed India
"shut up India, stop taking the mick out of this beautiful young girl" Sav replied.
I smiled, maybe she was being nice for once? Then she laughed, they all did. I picked up my stuff and walked away. My eyes burned as i could feel tears welling up. I blinked repeatedly to stop them rolling down my face.
"OI, were do you think your offf too?" shouted a voice from behind. I turned around and started walking towards them again. Vivain smirked. I stopped and flung up my middle finger, blew her a kiss and walked off again. Vivian had nothing to say. That surely wiped the smirk of her face. I can't believe i just done that.

The school day was finally over. I leant against Justins car impatiently. I had been stood here for 20 minutes now. Why was he taking so long?
"ahhh, Paige. Sorry i'm late, this twat was taking his time" i spun around to see Justin walking up to the car with someone dragging behind him. I smirked then went back to my grumpy face. He unlocked the car and i threw my bags in. I slumped into the seat. The passenger door opened and a familiar body wriggled into the seat.
"alright paige?" said Alex as he clicked his seatbelt into place and turned around to face me. My whole body felt like Jell-o. I could have cried right then.
"i'm fine" i said hardly paying any attention. I didn't want to seem obsessed so i turned away and looked out the window. Alex laughed and then we pulled off, heading home. As soon as we pulled into my dirve, my mum was standing next to her car. I walked up to her.
"werw are you going?" i asked
"i'm sorry paige, works called me out again. I have to be in barcelona in 24hours! I have to leave. I will be back as soon as possible, I promise. Justin will look after you. There is food in the fridge and you both have £200 in your bank. i'm sorry i am hardly here, paige and too you too justin" she said while turning towards Justin.
"it's fine, you're hardly ever here, we have got used to it" he replied while slamming the car door and walking into the house with alex trailing behind. My mum looked back at me and sighed. Her face seemed so upset. I hugged her.
"here, have this" she said as she slipped something into my blouse pocket. She pulled away kissed me then got in the car. I flung my bag back on my back and walked into the house. Alex and Justin were sat on the sofas already attempting to plug the xbox on. I chucked my bag on the stairs and went and sat on the armchair next to Justin and Alex.
"oh, so she does socialize" Alex laughed
"she happens to have a name" i said snappily. He looked at me and winked i made sick noises. Even though i didnt feel sick atall. I felt amazing. He winked at me AND he started a conversation with me. I felt a tingle inside of me. I walked upstairs and into my bedroom. I jumped on my bed and screamed into my pillow. I couldn't help but to smile and laugh. I felt amazing.

It was 2am and i couldn't sleep what so ever. VIS was probably at parties, getting drunk while i was laying in bed hugging my stitch teddy. I sighed. I threw myself out of bed. I walked downstairs to get a drink. My house was pitch black, there was only a faint sound of my brother snoring. I wondered if Alex had stayed the night. I wasn''t paying attention and therefore i thought there was another step and there wasn't.
"SHIT" i shouted as i fell onto the floor with a bangg.
"paige, is that you?" said a voice in the darkness.
"no, it's justin. My voice just became high pitched." i said sarcastically. I heard a little laugh then felt an arm snake across my waist. I got pulled up. I rested my head as i limped to the living room and got gently placed on the sofa. The light flickered on to reveal Alex's face.
"oh great" i muttered
"why do you have such a problem with me?" he said sitting next to me.
"i don't" i replied
"lets talk about you" he said
"theres nothing to talk about" i replied
"well, you're a good drawer" he smiled. i looked at him. How does he know? Then it came over me. I left my bag downstairs.
"where is my bag" i asked
"in the same place you lft it" i shot up. It was infact at the bottom of the stairs, were i had left it. I opened it and searched through it. The notebook with all my drawings of him was gone. I walked back into the living room. My cheeks flushed red.
"Looking for this?" he asked while holding up my notepad. I glared at him.
"What give you the right to look at all my stuff?" i said boiling up.
"it fell out, paige they are really good" he said while standing up and walkig towards me. He touched my arm. I shivered. That tingly feeling appeared again. He looked at my arm. Goosebumps had aroused.
"you cold? come sit down" he said. I followed him back to the sofa. He pulled of his jacket and threw it round my body. He zipped it up and laughed.
"so, you saw the drawings? well don't i seem like a stalker. I only drew you becuase you were easy to draw. Eveyone else was impossible." i lied.
"you're a rubbish liar" he chuckled. I looked to the floor. He lifted my chin up. And stared into my eyes.
"you really do feel something for me, don't you?" he asked. I didn't even get to reply. He placed his lips against mine and kissed me. It felt amazing. Obviously i have kissed other people but not like this. This felt different. Our mouths fitted, it was timed perfectly. I thought i was in a dream at this point. Alex Huddow kissing me? Me? I was just a loner kid? Nobody knew i existed? But i'm kissing the most popular boy in school? I didn't know how to react when he pulled away.
"wow, that was un-expected" i said
"i couldn't help it" he said while plunging in. He kissed me again my whole was tingling. I really felt something for him. A wave of shock flew over me as he slowly pushed me down. My heart raced as i wondered what he was doing. He kissed me deeper.
"wait, Alex. what are you doing?" i asked.
"i'm sorry, do you want me to stop?" he replied looking rather guilty.
"no, no, i'm just confused. Don't stop." i whispered. He looked at me before kissing me again. My mind raced, Was i really doing this? His hands snaked down my back. He pulled of my pj top. He looked at my face.
"You look scared" he said,
"It's my first time" i replied gulping. He smiled.
"Me too" he said. I felt so confused. My heart thumped like a scampede of elephants. Why was i feeling like this? Why was i doing this? I'm letting him do it. I liked it. His first time? He's meant to be popular? I thought he lost his virginity when he was like 12? I was so confused but i let it happen.
"do you want me to stop?" he saked looking down at my worried face.
"no," i replied,"carry on".
