U.G.L.Y.

You ain’t got no alibi, you ugly!

Eh! Hey! You ugly

I can see them whispering, and hot blood flows through my veins-I can just imagine my face turning such a bright red it might look like I’m choking.

I find an empty seat at my regular table, glancing over my shoulder at them as they continued to gossip and snicker behind their hands about me.

I try to smile at my friends, but it ends up this weird frown grin thing and they burst out laughing.

“Ha ha ha. You guys are so fucking hilarious” I hiss as I poke the “Tuna Surprise” with one of the cheap white sporks every cafeteria in America probably gives out.

Niki, one of my closest friends, tries to stop her loud obnoxious laughter, clutching her stomach as if it’s about to explode.

“I’m…I’m…Surry” she manages to say in between her fit of giggles. Finally after what seems like an eternity she and everyone else calms down, “I’m so surry Lexi but it was just too priceless”

“Well thanks for you guy’s support. It’s bad enough half the school’s girls think I’m the ugliest piece of white trash, but than I have you guy’s to just help my near-complex self confidence along towards my mind’s breaking point. Thanks so much” I said sarcastically looking up to see all of their faces pale.

“We didn’t mean it like that” Mikayla said as she bit her lower lip of out a nervous habit.

“Lex you should really stop with all your drama. Save it for the school play. This year- You are starting off a new. So don’t blow it by becoming what those cookie cutter bitches think you are, okay?” Danni says, sometimes I wonder if she thinks these hare-brained pep talks out before she goes and tells one of her best friends that she should just get a life-Only in longer more complex monologue.

“And what if I am what they think?” I ask trying to finally get her to admit I’m like one of the biggest nerds-Ever. In the history of Willow Creek Highschool.

“But I know your not” a masculine voice says in my ear. I smile faintly at my oldest of friends.

Sage. How can one explain him. He’s totally cute. Maybe not Derek cute-I’ll get into Derek when I see him. Oh wait there he goes.

Wipes away drool Sorry what was I saying? Oh yes. Something about Sage…I love him in some ways, I guess I could say. But what can I say about him personally with just a few words to sum it all up? He’s just one of a kind.

“Catch you later” Sage says as he makes his way towards one of the flirtly sluts that seem to rule the school. I look over at him for a second, his dark hazel brown eyes seem to dance with amusement. So maybe I like him a little more than I let on. I just wish sometimes he’d look at me like that…

Wait, hold up one second. Did Prince Derek actually look at me for a minute?!

“I think he just did” a voice whispers to me. I snap out of my little world. Damn I think I just said that out loud. Wait how much had they heard?

Niki exchanges a look with me before we both burst out laughing as I realize I said what I thought, yet again.

Well if Derek Rogers glanced my way, even if for a moment, maybe I’m not as ugly as I thought I am…
