I moved from a small town in Georgia where everyone knew everyone, to a big town of New York. I was 17. I had started at a new school, I had a new life. I had forced my parents to move for that purpose.
Then I met someone. Steve Rowland. My boyfriend.
But he didn't really love me. Not the real me. The girl he loved was a city loving, swearing head of, and pure white girl. The real me? I would go for some bright pink sweatpants from Walmart and get to a museum and gave the time of me life.
The person he saw was a ripped jeans, make up living, white girl. If that's the girl he wants, I'll give it to him.

"Hey Babe." He said. He wrapped his arm about my waist and dumped his unfinished homework in my locker. "Ditch school today?" He asked. We had a huge test today, but I was supposed to be that bad ass white girl.
"Yeah sure." I said. I dumped my finished homework in my locker and made my way after him.
"We'll go get Starbucks, your fav." He said. I actually could go for a pizza, but I didn't say anything. Not wanting to blow my cover.
"I got us IDs for the bar tonight." He said. I chocked on my drink.
"You were serious about that?" I asked.
"Yeah want to see how many guys my girl can line up." He said. I gulped. This was a little far. Even for me.

His drunk lips were on mine. I couldn't believe we got gotten in here. At all. I closed my eyes and wished for it all to go away. I didn't like it any more. I didn't like him anymore. I wanted to go back to Georgia.
"We're done." I told Steve. He seemed confused for a moment. Even when he was drunk, he had realized what had happened.
"No wait."
"Good bye." I left him coldly without another word behind. I called my mom.
"We're going back to Georgia."
And that's exactly what we did.

Author's Note
This used to be its own book, but having so many books in my works line was really getting on my nerves so I deleted it and I'm adding it here.
