Before I start writing, there are a few things you should know. Or people, more like. Just remember this is set at a school called Sun Crest High, and we will start at the first day after summer break, so that the characters know each other, but you still have a little bit of "First-day-of-school Jitters". But why tell you when I can showy you?

This is Leslie Joslin Wilder, also known as Les by friends and family. If you can't tell from the picture, she is blonde, with brown eyes, and a happy smile. She likes to wear "new-old-fashiond" style clothes, like worn jean shorts, and tops like this. When it comes to friends, she is fiercely loyal, and will stand up to anyone who is aggravating you. If you are enemy's with her, she will hold a grudge, don't get my wrong, but she won't make your life miserable like most others.

This is Megan Denet (Deh-net)Peltron, your typical PMG. Popular, beautiful, scornful, and a temper to match her hair. She will never forget, and if you owe her a favor, she will bring it up when she wants something. Which she always gets. If she wants something, she will get it weather by charming, lying, cheating, or black-mailing. There is no escaping her. She is the queen of the school. The guys fall for her, and she pretends not to like it. But is there something more underneath that shell? No one ever dares to find out.

This is Chase Daniel Ruggen, Megan's current boyfriend. Hell probably past about a month and then be replaced by the next guy who is willing to be lured by her beauty. He has brown hair, green eyes, and is a huge computer geek. Sometimes he is labelled a nerd. People at Sun Crest High are shocked that megan would choose a nerd to be her next victim. She probably needed something or other pirated over the Internet. We can only hope that his truly well-meaning heart will win out.

This is Sophia Lizzie Preston, who os called Sophie, who is Leslie's best friend. Sophie lives in the moment, having fun and always making people around her laugh. She can be serious, though, but doesn't like it too much. She breaks her limbs a lot, doing crazy things, and is often not aware of how loud she is speaking. She is not very popular, and sometimes sneered upon. But Les and her pull through and keep going full steam ahead.

Image
•X•
This is Jason Elton Braxx, the biggest, toughest, most flirtatious guy in the whole school. A jock, through and through. He has dirty blonde hair, and green eyes. All the girls fall head over heels for him, an he has dated Megan not once, but THREE TIMES! (Which is a big accomplishment, if you don't know already). If you are together with Jason, or Jay, as his currents and ex's call him, you will be treated like the most beautiful, most lovable girl in the entire world. No one knows why he doesn't stick with girls, its like, one moment him and her are in love and as happy as can be, and the next, well, not any more.

Ok, Im sorry if my writing is bad/inconsistent in length, I'm making this to help me learn how to better my writing skills. I apolagize for sooo many URL's, i like looking at pictures! Comments are welcome!

Leslie's retro alarm clock sprang to life, making a sound that was loud enough to wake a dead elephant. It worked it's magic, Leslie jumping out of her spring mattress bed almost involuntarily. She quickly pulled her hair out of her eyes using one hand, fingers working their way back to her neck, and surveyed her calm grey room. It had touches of blue and lavender, and an add-on bathroom. It's theme was the same trim blue that peaked out periodically in her bed room. Leslie made her way to her closet and carefully picked out several peices of clothing and accessories, that put together made a nice outfit.

Leslie quickly brushed her teeth and hair, applied a very light white "shimmer eye-shadow" that she loved to use, and lightly spread a thin amount of pink lip gloss over her mouth that matched her lip tone nicely.
She then headed downstairs for breakfast, where Leslie poured herself a medium helping of Raisin Bran, one of her favorite cereals. Her mother wasn't up yet, as usual,but there was a card on the table at her place that was addressed to her, from mom. She opened it, and a grey "say it, fight it" bracelet fell out. She slipped it on, and read the card to herself:
Dear Les,
I'm sorry I can't be with you this morning, my convention last night took longer than usual, and I am very tired. Please don't wake me up! Wear the bracelet, dear.
Love, xoxo,
Mom

Leslie smiled. Her mothers convention last night had taken a long time. Usually her mother's breast cancer awareness conventions lasted until eight, but she had come home after Leslie and Serena, Leslie's little sister, were sound asleep. She felt guilty for setting off her alarm so loudly, so early. She hasn't seen mom yet, so she assumed she was knocked out like a light.
Leslie looked at the wall clock, and saw it was 6:59. She wiped her mouth quickly with her napkin and called, " Serri!! It's time for school! Come down without waking up mom!" Then she slapped her hand over her mouth. That would have probably woken up mom. Too late, though. They had to leave. As if on cue, Serena bounced down the stairs, wearing what Serena wears, plus a bugajillion bracelets. I sigh. "We need to go. Get your stuff." I say as I pick up my book bag off the sofa. Serena ran and got her back-pack off the sofa. I walk her to her bus station, make sure she knows when to get on and off, and then run to my school - I had missed the bus. As I walk in, my freind Sophie surrounds me with higs and words and a whole bunch of "OMG Les I didn't think you were come img when I didn't see you on the bus!" I smile. This is as good - no, BETTER than being popular. One real freind tops ten fake ones any day. As she was assuring Sophie that she wouldn't miss school, she spotted Megan, linked to Chase via arms, chatting away at him, but he wasn't listning... he was looking at me.

{ P.O.V. of Megan }


I wake up to my mom roughly shaking my shoulder and telling me to "Get out!" I wait to open my eyes until she is done and out. Once I can hear her downstairs banging pans, I jump up, and as quietly as I could I got dressed. I brush my teeth and my hair to perfection, put on my foundation, blush, eyeshadow, dark red lipstick, lop liner, lip gloss, get my school bag, then head out the door. I walk to my car, and sit in the light tan seat. I start down the road. I know where all the cops are: not around here. I press the button to put down my convertible roof, and nudge the speed up to 50. Then 75. I laugh, and put my hands up in the air, steering with my knees.
When I arrive at the school zone, I slow to 40, close enough to the 25 required. I pull into my parking spot, (right next to the door) and close my windows and roof. I step out an give a slight smile with the corner of my mouth. Someone was going to pay for my hurt. For my mom. For her piercing words. For my father being like this. Here, I was queen. Here, anything I want happens. As soon as I step into the hallway, my bubble of people enclose me. I tell them all to go and smear their lip gloss or something. I walk over to Chase. "Hey sweetie!" I say, and he half smiles at me. I'm getting to know his laugh age a little more now, so I realize this means: "Nice to see you too, Megs." That was the cute nickname that he gave me. He was kind of cute, but I couldn't get attached. As soon as I had what I needed, he was out of here. I start chatting away about my new nail polish, keeping the nerd occupied while I make my plan. As soon as we get close enough, I'll hatch my "innocent" plan on him, and then everything would be right again. Without realizing, I had stopped talking, and he hadn't realized. I fix my green eyes on his otherwise occupied sea ones. I follow his gaze to the far end of the hallway, where Leslie and Sophia are laughing together. oh ... no ... you ... don't. I whisper, and walk toward my right hand girl, Britt, and tell her: "Code Red, Leslie... Or Soph. I'm thinking Les." She nods and walks off in their direction, whispering to my other stationed minions. I walk back to Chase, planting myself in front of him. His eyes fix on me now, and I jump at the chance to keep them there. "So..." I say, acting flirtatious. "Any plans for us?" He is taken off guard. "Well... I-I was thinking, um, my buddies and I are going to the shooting range..." He forces the last part out like it hurt him to say them. "Would you like to join us?"

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love love

I guess what I be saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do, our name is our virtue
-Jason mraz, I'm yours


You don't get to choose if you get hurt in this world, old man, but you do have some say in who hurts you. I like my choices. I hope she likes hers.

{ P.O.V. of Leslie }

I slowly take my eyes away from Chase. What is he thinking though? If Megan catches him like that, we're both gonna get it. Fake rumors, bathroom sabotage, hallway trippings, but the thing with megan is that she always has something new. It always catches you off guard. She does all the usual things, and then she does... something else. You never see it coming, and its always different from the last one, and it is always more terrible. So that's how she rains this school. We are pretty much all terrified of her.
"And so my mom sent me to my room. I'm 16 for crying out loud! I don't even remember the last time I got sent to my room... except for last night." Sophie chuckles. "But still." She says trying to keep a straight face. I try to act interested, but all I can focus on right now is what would happen to me. And to Soph. If I hang out with her, she'll be caught up in all of this nasty revenge business too. And frankly, I could ocare less about her being sent to her room last night. I need a transfer or something! I look around, keeping an eye out for some of Megan's minions, who carry out her tasks. I see three of them coming our way. "Sophi you have to go to class now. Go!" I say and she takes off. She is really fast, no way those dorks could outrun her. But maybe they could me... what s wrong with a head start?? I start running towards the lockers. I hear a few startles squeals behind me that might have been, once translated, "OMG slow down!! My nail polish needs a break! Shut up, stupid!" I keep running as fast as I can. Why on earth did I put on high heels this morning? I keep running. I run out the back door of the school. Suddenly I feel a hand gripping at my shirt. We are coming up on the supply shed now. The hand opens the door and pushes me in, all in one motion. I land on the floor, and I can hear other footsteps coming in behind me. A minion couldn't have pushed me in here, or shut us in, or be this quiet. I think, suspicious. Just then the minions go by in their stumbling/giggly/loud gate. Who is in here with me?! I think, starting to freak out. I prop myself up. I think I have a splinter and a large bruise. I squint at the body, half black by the crack of light behind... him? "Sorry about that, how are you?" Said Chase.
