• The way he walks makes me nervous. The way he stares at people make me wonder what he's thinking. Everything about him is amazing. His dark black hair lightly touching his beautiful white neck. makes me gasp with excitment. His low smooth voice is like music to my ear. I wonder what he's thinking. Too bad he doesn't notice me. He never looks at me, or even talks to me. Instead, he always hangs out with his best friend Scott. Besides, the only girl that he notice is Victoria. Victoria, with killer looks and a beautiful figure. Me? I'm just some nerd, that have no right to even be near them. "Elli, your sister is here to pick you up. Don't forget that we have a test tomorrow." I nod my head. My sister smiles at me with warmth in her eyes. My sister, Serene, opens the car door for me.
    "Did you get to talk to him yet?" Serene knows everything about me. I tell her everything about school, even if I have to call her when she's in college. My sister is always there for me. She's my only friend.
    "No." Serene gives me a worry look on her face.
    "I thought you like him?"
    "I do but..."
    "Too shy? Are you worried about him blowing you off?" Serene parks her car in the garage. "You seriously need to be brave." She examines me, and opens the door. "You're a nice girl. I bet he would give you a chance."
    "Sis, I'm not beautiful like you." It's true. Everything about us is different. Serene has all the good looks, but me? I'm nothing comparred to her, or to Victoria. I'm just really smart. I have a brain, but not the looks.
    "You are kidding right?" She asks with her hands on her hips. "You are gorgeous, but it's so sad that you don't believe it." Walking around me, she examines me. "All you need is a little change of style, and we seriously need to do something about your hair. Plus, no more glasses, and only wear contacts. We're going to the mall, and then to the hair salon."
    "I don't have money." Serene starts laughing.
    "But I do." She says with a smile.
    "I don't want you too waste your money on me." That's true. She's a college student now. College students needs money.
    "I'm soo dissapointed. I'm your older sister. It would be pleasure to help you with something. And besides, you never ask for anything. When it was your birthday, you never asked for anything. That really pisses me off." I stare at the carpet. "I always wanted to do something for you, but do you not trust me?"
    "I really trust you." She smiles again, and grabs my hand.
    "I want you to be happy, and strong. Is that too much for me to ask?"
    "No."
    "Let's go right now." She pulls me towards the car. My sister seems really happy. I've never seen her this happy before. "I'm so happy that my little sister is actually going to let me help her." I smile at her remark. "We're finally here! Here we come Grape Vines Mall!" Sometimes, I think I'm older. She makes me where all these t-shirts that's expensive.
    "Sis, this one makes me feel uncomfortable." This t-shirt shows a little part of my breast.
    "It's called a V-neck. It's supposed to be like that. "Here try these on." She throws more clothes at me. Trying on a skirt. makes me feel nervous. I've never worn a skirt before. My sister hugs me from behind. "You look so hot!" I can't believe it, but she's actually right. That girl in the mirrior is really me? My sister points at the mirrior. "See, that's you." I cant believe how mouch stuff we bought. I have a lot of clothes now.
    "Hello, what may i do for you?" A guy with a british accent says. My sister points at my hair.
    "Do something about this and make it look beautiful." The british guy examines my hair.
    "How terriable! You poor hair." I cant believe he said that. My sister starts laughing. "I'll make you look alive again." I can't believe he's talking to my hair. What a weird guy. Again, my sister lauhgs. It took him about forty minutes to finish. I gasp at the mirior. That girl is really me? Her hair looks really healthy. Her hair shines with beauty. And the hair actually feels silky. My sister smiles and gives him money. "Now, your hair is fantastic!" The british guy says. My sister handed me a pair of contact lenses.
    "When did you get these?" I ask.
    "While he did your hair, i got your prescriptions and got these babies for you!" She said cheerfuly. No wonder why i didn't see her. "I also got new shoes, and high heels for you."
    "I can't walk in high heels." My sister makes a tsk-tsk-tsk- sound.
    "Every girl need hidg heel." I nod my head. Our shopping trip is finally over. "We're forgetting one thing." I stare at her in disbelief.
    "What?"
    "I bought you some makeup and i can always teach you how to put them on, but you're still missing one thing."
    "What is it?"
    "Courage." My eyes widens. She's right. "Before you change to your new clothes, we're going to the duck pond."
    "But I'm scared of ducks!" My sister shakes her head.
    "Once you're over your fear, you can find courage." Again, she's correct.
    "Fine." We're here at the duck pond. I stop and take a deep breath. My sister is feeding the ducks like it's nothing scary. I tighten my grip, and force myself to walk. I can do this. Giving bread to the ducks is a piece of cake, My real mission is too touch one. I gulped my fear and walk slowly towards them. If anything bad happends, my sister is going to save me. I close my eyes, and quickly touch a duck. Instead of pecking on me, it actually nudge his head on my hand. I guess that not all ducks are dangerous. My sister claps her hand.
    "See, it wasn't that hard." We went back home. My sister did my make up and drove me to school. She hugs me and slaps my back.
    "Good luck!" My sister is the best. Walking in the hall was different. Usually people ignores me or shoves me out of thier own pleasure, but now they're super nice.
    "Hey!" Scott yells running from the hallway. "You must be new."
    "No, I'm not new." I couldn't help laughing. He stares at me even more.
    "That's funny, because I know every beautiful ladies in this school." I glare at him. He's such a snob.
    "Whatever." Walking away from him feels so good.




    Mark (pov)


    "Mark, I saw this beautiful girl." Of course. Scott dates every girl that he thinks is beautiful.
    "And?" Scott looks away.
    "She dumped me!" I couldn't help but to laugh. "Stop laughing! It's not funny." I was about to say something, but Victoria is here. Everytime I see her I feel this feeling throbing in my heart. It's always her that makes my heart beat faster. Her long curly brown hair, reminds me silk. Her long lean leg is perfect. Everything about her is perfect. Victoria is so nice and kind.
    "Mark, why are you laughing?" Victoria asks.
    "Some girl dumped Scott." Victoria starts laughing. Scott looks away.
    "Ya call yourself friends?"
    "Sorry, but i want to meet this girl," Victoria says. "I'm surprised that someone actually dumped you. This girl might have great taste."
    "My ego is hurting right now," Scott says.
    "O, suck it up! there's other fishies in the sea."
    "See, it's her!" He points his finger at the blonde girl. Her hair is wavy all the way to her waist. Her eye lashes is long and lurring. Her legs is smocking hot. The way she walks however, is really weird. It looks like it's her first day wearing high heels. "That's the girl that said no to me." She glares at Scott, and sighs. She sits in Ellie's seat.
    "Hey isn't that Elli's seat?" I ask.
    "Who's Ellie?" Scott asks.
    "I don't know," Victoria says.
    "Okay everyone, we have a test today so get ready," Mr. Simon says. "If I catch anyone cheating, then that means everyone is going to have a zero." Unbelievable, who would cheat in such a easy test? O yeah... my best friend would. Sometimes I wonder how he got to junior year. Probably, having orgasim with Miss. Patterson. "Elli, would you please hand these test papers to everyone?"
    The girl with the long wavy hair replys, "Sure." I was right. She is Ellie. Everyone in the classroom is shocked. Scott looks doub founded, and Victoria is examining her like a x-ray. I could instantly tell that she's all nervous. No wonder why she doesn't talk.
    "Stop starring at her. Can't you tell that she's nervous." Everyone stops starring. She walks with a smile, and hands the paper. This girl have a mouth. Why don't she use it? Instead of being quiet all the time. That's the reason why no one noticed her before. She sits back to her chair and begins her test. My god, Scott is just laying his head, sleeping, not even intempting to finish the test. Ellie stands and gives her test to the teacher. She's the first student to finish. Standing up, I handed the test to the teacher. The teacher looks at me like he's amazed by something.
    "Stop!" He shouts. "Times up." I swear, if I was the teacher I would rather let Scott keep the test, instead of giving. Since, he's drooled on it....
