Hey, this is my new story, i just had an idea and decided to go with it.


Chapter one


I climb up the stairs and go into my room. At last I can sleep. I swear I haven't went to bed at 10.00 pm in years. Normally I get to bed at about 2.00 or 3.00 am. I go into the bathroom, I brush my teeth, clean off my makeup and apply some lotion. I go back into my room and strip off. I put on my new 'La Senza' pyjamas, little royal blue shorts and a tight white top, I find myself being annoyed that no-one can see me because apart from having no make-up on, I think I actually look pretty hot. I close my laptop over and close my door. I climb into bed and take a sip from the glass of water on my bedside table. I lie down and turn off my table lamp as my eyes slam shut.

I wake up to the sound of my phone, still in a bleary sleep. I sit up and rub my eyes. I turn so that I'm sitting on the edge of my bed, with my feet on the floor and I realize that there's still something ringing in the back of my head. I twist and turn, looking for my phone. I follow the sound and realize that it's coming from my bag. I fish around and eventually find it, I look at the screen to see who's calling and see the name 'Sally' flashing up.
"Hello" I say in a hoarse voice.
"Holly" She yells, as I cough.
"What" I yell back, now aware that I have a pounding headache
"Where the hell are you. I've been waiting out side your house for like twenty minutes. You only have like a half an hour until school starts" I shouts.
"Oh my god, damn. Sorry, I'll be down soon" I say and hang up the phone.
I look at my alarm clock, which as Sally said, says it's 8.00. Startled I jump up from the bed and run into the bathroom, I don't have enough time for a shower, so I just brush my teeth and then rush into my room and get changed.

Once my clothes are on I pick up my brown leather bag, place the things I need inside it and I leave my room. I run down the stairs and shout goodbye to my parents. I get outside to see Sally resting against my garden wall with a lollypop in her mouth, phone in hand. As she heres the door open, she turns around and smiles at me, throws the lollypop in the bin and puts her phone back in her pocket.
"Come on" She says. "It's 8.20. We're going to be late".
"Right, lets go" I say, walking down the steps and beginning to walk along the street.
"So, how come your alarm didn't go off?" She asks me.
"Emm, I don't know, I think that I might have forgotten to set it last night" I say.
"Oh, okay" She says.
"Come on" I say and we begin to run, to school.

We get to school, just in time for the bell. We get into registration five minutes late and just skin getting shouted at. As it's the first of school for this year, then we're given our schedules. The teacher does the register and I look at the responses of the new students in the class. But one of the names that she said, I didn't recognize and no-one responded so he must be late today.
Me and Sally swap our schedules and look at each others subjects, to see if any of ours are corresponding. I look up to tell Sally that we have art together today, when suddenly my attention is moved to the classroom doorway where the most drop dead gorgeous boy is standing.
"Hi" He says to the teacher with a smirk.
"I'm Ethan".

Chapter two


"There's one" Sally says, from beside me.
It's the first day back after summer and it's lunch time already. Me and Sally are in the cafeteria trying to find an empty table to have our lunch at, most of our friends went out for lunch, so today it's just me and Sally. Once we sit down, I put my coat and bag down and get my money out for the dinner school
"I'm going to go get some lunch" I say as Sally pulls her pack lunch out of her bag.
"Okay" She says with a smile.

I line up in the pizza line and while waiting a line forms behind me. At the side of my eye, I see an arm reaching for a tray from behind me. Curious I turn around to see who it is and I come face to face with Ethan.
"Hi" He says with a smile.
"Hi" I flush.
"So, how are you?" He says and throws me a wink.
"I'm good" I respond.
"Your in my registration class, right?" He asks.
"Yeah, I think so" I answer.
"Yeah, definitely, you sit next to the strange girl. That's what I thought this morning, how can someone so beautiful like yourself, be friends with that strange person" He says truthfully.
I know that I should be saying to him, that he shouldn't be talking about my friends that way, but I'm just too dazed by his cuteness.
"Next" the cafeteria lady yells.
But I don't realize, I just stand there frozen, looking into his eyes.
"Babe that's you" he says to me, but I still stand still.
"Emm, she'll have a slice of the margarita pizza and a bottle of water please" He says and fishes a few coins out of his pocket. He takes the food and puts it on a tray and hands over the money. He then orders the same for himself and then take s both trays and sets them down at a table. He pulls a chair out for me and waits for me to sit down.
I know that I should go over and get Sally, but she'll understand, I know she will. If this was her, I'd tell her to go for it, so she should feel the same. After a while of talking and eating with Ethan. Most of it was me just staring at him. I tell him, that I'm going to the bathroom, to touch up my make-up. I go over to Sally and tell her what I'm doing.
"Yeah, I saw you" She says drably.
"What the hell are you doing?, hanging with the player, leaving me alone for him!" She says and angrily gets up and storms out of the cafeteria.
Shellshocked, I go back over to Ethan, who is now surrounded by the cheerleader, who are all over him. They're such sluts!
"Hi" I say and sit down again.
"What's going on?" I ask a little uncomfortably.
"Nothing, we're just chatting" He says pushing Lana, the most popular girl and the head cheerleader, off of his knee.
"Okay girls, clear off" He says shooing them away. "I've already got a lunch date" He says and smirks at me.
"So, where are we going next?" He says.
"I don't know, I guess you can walk me to English" I respond.
"No, I mean, do you want to go to the park, the beach" He says.
"Like after school?" I ask him confused.
"No, next period, we're skipping. Your coming with me" He says and pulls me out of the cafeteria.

Chapter 3


Holly's pov


Okay, I know that I should have just objected and went to English. I mean this isn't me, I don't skip school to go to the park with bad boys. I know that I should have stayed at school and made up with Sally. I know that this is wrong, but if it is, how can it feel so right? I don't know, I feel a connection between us. I'm in Ethan's BMW, we're driving down the highway, open roof, sun shining down on me, streaming through my hair. We look at each other and smile. He turns back to the road and I just stare at him, I mean, he is so hot.

When we arrive at the park, we go to the huge grassy hill. We climb right to the top and sit down. I look around, all I see is jocks and cheerleaders. God, I feel like one of them. I know that that's normally a bad thing, but I mean, I feel good, I feel cool.


I know that this behavior is strange for me and I shouldn't be here, I should be in class, hoping for it to be over, but doing my work. Instead of being here, at the park, in the middle of the afternoon, skipping school. This isn't me. But I can't help thinking, what if it was, would that really be so bad? I mean yeah, my education would probably suffer, maybe I wouldn't get into Stanford and my parents wouldn't be very proud. But I would be popular, I would have millions of friends and be in with the people who run the school, I would be able to go to parties on saturday nights, instead of sitting at home watching a movie. I would have Ethan. And that would be the most important thing.
