Mariah's Secret, chapter 1
Mariah walked through the hall, avoiding all the mean things everyone were saying. Preps sneered, jocks laughed, even the punks shouted all kinds of crap.
"Gothic whore" shouted a jock.
"I heard she killed her family." whispered a prep.
This brought tears to her eyes. Her parents had kicked her out just a week ago.She walked on trying to find her locker. When she finally succeeded she opened her locker and through her books in. She taped her schedule to the inside of her locker and closed the door. The late bell rang. Mariah began to run to the art room. BOOM. She ran into someone and fell to the floor."great!" she mumbled sarcasticly. When she looked up Mariah saw a pair of bright green eyes looking down at her.
"You must be new here." Mariah said.
"Yeah, how did you know?"
"No one ever looks at me that way."
" What way?"
"Kindly." said Mariah as he helped her up.
" I'm Billie Joe" said the guy.
"I'm Mariah, what do you have first?"
"Ummm...art. I'm kinda lost though."
" Follow me."
Mariah and Billie walked into art silently."Miss Edger you know I don't tolerate tardyness. And as for you Mr.......Armstrong, you know that now. Detention this afternoon. BOTH of you!!"
Billie took a seat at the table where Mariah was sitting alone. " I don't know what the preps promised you, but trust me, its not worth me kicking your ass." said Mariah with an evil glare. " They didn't promise me anything. In fact, I hate preps. I don't even bother talking to them." Billie had a matter-of-fact look on his face.
*Mariah's POV*
Oh my god, he's perfect.
But he probably won't talk to me after he hears the rumors.
And definitly not if he discovers my secret.
The one thing no one can talk about,
because no one knows.
