"Him"

I fell asleep in English class because we know its boring. I heard light footsteps coming towards my desk. I didn't care though I wanted sleep. Someone than slammed a book on my desk. I woke up and fell off my seat I got so scared. Everyone was laughing at me. I was the hated unwanted person here. Every other f*****g girl here was preppy and just because I dress like this they think there better and prettier than me. I didn't care. I sat on my seat again. The rest of the day I got laughed at because of what happened in English class. I walked home. It was a pretty sunny day. It was spring and getting warmer everyday. I wore my hoodie to school anyway because I felt very self councious about my body. I got home and tripped up the stairs going into my porch. I laughed to myself and walked through the door. I was inside the kitchen looking confused. There were people here I didn't know and my mom. I shrugged my shoulders and walked upstairs but didn't get far because my mom was calling my name. "Dawn!! Come here." I rolled my eyes and walked back into the kitchen. "yes?" I said trying to sound polite. "These are our new neighbors and they came by to say hello." I looked over to the them and smiled and looked back at my mom. "They have a son but he isn't here right now." "Why?" "Because he had to do something before he came here." "aww" I said as I turned around to walk back upstairs. I turned my ipod on and layed down on my bed. I was thinking about everything that happened today. I smiled faintly and layed down on my side and fell asleep. The next morning I got woken up by my mom screaming my name. "DAWN WAKE UP RIGHT NOW!!!" I yawned and got out of bed. "Yeah yeah, I'm up now" I said as I changed my clothes, put makeup on, and straightened my hair. I teased my hair so it wouldn't look so flat. I brushed my teeth and ran downstairs. I opened up the front door. "Dawn where do you think your going?" I looked at her weirdly. "I'm walking to school DUHH!!" My mom stared at me and sighed. "Ok just be careful." I smiled and walked out the door. I put my ipod on and was singing to myself as I was walking to school. "Hey!!" Someone said to me but I didn't hear because I had my ipod on. Than I feel a tap on my shoulder. I turn around quickly scared for my life. I look at this hot guy and widen my eyes at how perfect he looks. "Umm, Hi!!!." I say as I turn my ipod off and put it in my pocket. "I heard my parents went over your house yesterday." I looked at him remembering my mom saying something about a guy moving here. "Oh yeah." I say smiling nervously. "They told me a little about you that your mom told them." I looked down kinda pissed off at my mom now. I looked back up. "Oh I didn't know my mom was saying anything to them about me." I turned back around and started walking fast. I forgot about school and knew I'd be late if I didn't get there faster. "Wait!" he said catching up to me. "Huh?" I said questioningly. "Your names Dawn right?" I nodded. "What's your name?" "Jake!" "Oh great." I said as I finally reached the school. I ran away from him as fast as I could. Intentionally I didn't mean to but I kinda knew I was starting to fall for him and I didn't want that to happen. I ran into homeroom right as the bell rang and thought thank goodness I lost Jake. Just than I saw Jake walk into the classroom. 'GAHHH!!! Perfect hes following me now.' I thought to myself as I slammed my head on the desk and I got everyones attention without realizing it. All the girls awwed at how "HOT" he was. I didn't care. I looked up at Jake and saw him smiling at me. I looked away quickly so I didn't have to smile back. "Class this is Jake I expect everybody to be nice to him." "No problem." some girl said winking at Jake. I saw that and had a feeling inside me I didn't want. Jealousy! Time went by slowly. I wanted to get out of school NOW. After the last bell rang I got up quickly and ran to my locker. "Haha LOSERR!!!" I ignored her. "Hey hope you know you wont get Jake because hes mine." She said the word mine in such a cruel way. It made me sad and upset. I knew she was right she was eventually going to get him but did I care? NO!! I was walking home listening to my ipod again. I put my hood on and zippered my hoodie up. I felt violated. I started crying. I mean yes I wanted Jake but I was loser and I was wayy too ugly for anyone. "I give up." I whispered to myself. I just wanted to be loved. When I got home I cryed and eventually fell asleep. I never ate all day. The next morning. I woke up. "Darn it I got to stop wearing my clothes to bed." I said as i quickly took a shower. I changed into new clothes. I put on my black and red skinnies, and bvb t-shirt. I put black ey shadow onand my black eyeliner. I straightened my hair, and I teased it. I finished by putting a bow in my hair. I looked in the mirror. "I'm so ugly." I looked down and looked down. I walked slowly downstairs. I wasnt really hungry. I was too depressed. "Dawn have something to eat will you. You never had anything yesterday. I'm starting to worry about you." I smiled faintly. "Nah I'm good I'll eat when I get home I promise." I waved goodbye to my mom and walked outside. I put my hood on and put my ipod on. I put the volume on high. I wanted to be in my own world. Someone tapped me on my shoulder. I smiled somewhat and turned around. I saw Jake staring at me kinda sad. I turned my ipod off. "You okay Jake?" "Why do you hate me Dawn?" I looked shocked. I wasnt expecting him to say that. "I dont hate you." "Yes you do you ignored me all day yesterday. When I called your name I got all these other girls tackling me." I looked into his crystal light blue eyes. I shaked my head no. "I didnt think you wanted to hang out with me is all." Lame excuse I know but i couldnt think of any other excuse at this moment. Jake smiled. "Your wrong I want to hang out with you." I smiled and hugged him tightly. We walked together laughing. We walked into school. All the girls seemed jealous of me and spread fake rumors about me. Jake believed me when I told him they werent real. We became really close and were best friends. 4 years later I'm 16 Jakes 17. I walked out the door normally like I always do I waited for Jake. I waited 10 minutes and he never came out. I figured he was sick so I walked to school alone. I heard people whispering. Their echos came to me. "Did you hear Jake moved and he never said goodbye to Dawn." I didnt believe them. I tryed staying happy all day. After school was done. I ran outside and ran to Jakes house. I knocked on the door. Jakes mom answered. "Is Jake here?" Her face was suddenly saddened. "He's not here he moved back to Florida." I looked shocked. "WHYY???" I yelled really upset. "I got a divorce and Jake moved back to Florida with his dad. He had no choice. His dad made him finish his education at his old school." I had tears in my eyes. "I'm sorry sweety I know how close you guys were. He told me to give you this note." She handed it to me. I took it and ran back to my house. I layed on my bed and cryed. I cryed all night and I couldnt sleep. My mom let me stay home from school the next day. I woke up emotionless and I remembered the note. I took it out of my pocket opened it and started reading it. 'Dawn I'm sorry I never got the chance to say goodbye. I never wanted this to happen. It just happened so sudden. I never knew my parents were getting a divorce until 2 days ago. My dad told me not to tell you and it was better off that I moved without saying goodbye. I never got to tell you how I felt about you. Now that I'm away from you I cant ever tell you this face to face. I was planning on telling you this this weekend. Dawn I love you so much and always have since I met you 4 years ago. My heart is probably breaking as much as yours is right now. I'm crying so much. I miss you my darling and I promise once I graduate I'm coming back for you. This necklace is yours so you believe me that I mean this. I'm not going to go out with anyone I want you to be my next girlfirend. I'll ask you once I see your beautiful face again. I always thought you were beautiful but I never showed it because I was afraid. Don't let anyone make you think differnet otherwise. I'm telling the truth. Everyone is just jealous at how gorgeous you are and there not half way as pretty as you are. Not even close. I got to go now. See ya until next time my love ' I grabbed the necklace and noticed it was the necklace he always wore around that pretty neck of his. I put the necklace on and cryed my self to sleep while holding the note. 3 years later. I'm in college. I was sitting in class playing with Jakes necklace. I never look at anyone. Everyone thinks I'm a freak because I keep things to myself. I was hearing everybody saying there was a new transfer student today. I rolled my eyes and put my ipod on. I was inbetween classes. My next class started 2 hours from now. What a waste to go back home and come back. So I just walk around outside listening to my ipod. I looked up and saw the most gorgeous GUY I have ever seen in my life. He was surrounded by girls. I could see he was aggrivated. "Will you please go out with mee?" "I love your eyes we should date sometime." "Your so extrmely HOT!! You gotta go out with me I'm popular." I rolled my eyes seeing that he didnt care. "Listen ladies I'm taken." he said a little pissed off. I got a little sad myself. I dont know why I should of expected it. "NO YOUR NOT ITS NOT TRUE." All the girls would say at random times. He pulled out a picture out of his pocket and pointed to the girl in the picture. I was to far away to even see the picture. It was a big blur to me. "I'm taken by her." All the girls looked shocked. "No wayy HERRR??" I turned around and put my ipod on again. So I didnt hear what was being said anymore but I stood in the same place. Playing with Jakes necklace thinking about him. I was smiling. I started to cry and walked away. The two hours were up and I walked into my next class. I had my ipod turned off and put it in my pocket. A whole bunch of girls came up to me. "I hate your ugly little face." "You should die so I can date his gorgous self." I looked confused. "What are you talking about?" "Your going out with the new transfer student." I looked shocked. "Uhh??" was all that came out of my mouth. "I hate you." They told me more horrible things and sat in their seats. Why do they think I'm dating the new guy. Maybe I look like his girlfriend mistaken identity. Yeah i thought that must be it. They dont mean all those mean things. I kissed Jakes necklace and smiled to myself. My heart after all belonged to Jake and only him not this new guy. After class was over I went to the same spot the new guy was sitting. He was sitting on the wooden bench. I sat just like he did. I sat on the bench thinking maybe this new guy is Jake. But who knows. I saw him again. He was standing where I was standing before. I looked at him in wonder. A girl intertwined her arm with his. He shrugged her arm off. "Get away from me will ya. I told you before I was taken. I am not going to cheat on her. I thought how sweet he must really love her. She just wouldnt leave him alone. He kept pushing her away but she kept coming back for more. I was getting pissed off at her. I got up and walked over towards them. "HEY!! LEAVE HIM ALONE ALREADY." I yelled to make sure she heard me. "What are you going to do about it loser?" I pushed her. "Can't you see he wants to be left the f**k alone? Are you deaf or something? He said leave me alone how many times? He has a f*****g girlfriend already just leave him alone." She got pissed off at me. "Oh your going to get it I'll ruin your life just you wait." Than she walked away. I looked up at the new guy and smiled faintly and was walking away. "Umm thanks." he said I didnt say anything back. Just than he twirled me around. I looked frightened and hit him. "Let go of me please." He let go and was staring at Jakes necklace. "Where did you get that necklace?" He asked me I looked at him like WTF!! "From my best friend." I said quickly. "What was their name?" "Why do you want to know?" "Please just tell me." he pleaded with me. "Alright fine his name was Jake." His eyes widened he looked really shocked than he smiled. "Want to see a picture?" He asked me. "Uhhh sure I guess." I said confused. He took out the same picture he showed the girls a while ago. I know that because he took it out from the same place before. He handed it to me. I stared at it and widened my eyes. It was Jake and me. We took that picture the one day when we were at the park. "I missed you so much Dawn." Jake said as he hugged me tightly. I started crying and hugged him tightly back. Now everything made sense the reason why the other girls envyed me. He kissed my lips without warning and I was surprised but kissed him back with as much passion as I could. After we were done he smiled and whispered. "Will you be my reason to breathe?" I cryed harder and said yes. From that day on we were never apart from each other again. We eventually married and had two kids. Happily ever after.

Oh, I remember reading this on Facebook when you sent it to me! Besides the grammatical and structure stuff, you've done great with the storyline and characters :) You developed each one wonderfully with their certain thinking and dialogue. I love how you brought the two characters back together in the end and how they fell in love, it was so adorable to me and I couldn't help but keep smiling. I love it and feel you are on a great start with a potential for writing in the future, if you want to continue it, that is.
