I woke up with the same dream I have everyday. I was dressed to kill and I was with my sisters walking through the school hallway with boys shouting to get my attention. But I ignored them and suddenly izhon Sanchez ran over to me. He knelt down and begged for my love for forgiveness of his past behavior . and I shunned him laughing and smirking At the same time then I leaned down to his left ear and said you'd have to beg harder than that and I pushed him to the ground laughing like a witch as I walked away leaving him shouting for my love.
That was always my dream. Humph" who was I kidding, izhon of all people kneeling and at my mercy. Izhon was the type of guy that had girls begging for his attention and its still a mystery to me how he never had a girlfriend all my years of knowing him.
We were solid enemy's. He bullies me every chance he gets and when I try to pay back I ended up being the one getting hurt.
Now this brings me to the fact that I was still scared to go to school today knowing izhon would be waiting.
I reported him to the principal when he took the assignment I used almost two months to make and shredded it right in front of me.
I sighed and stood up to get on with my morning routine .
*******""”*"*********
I reached the dining and met no one Typical family they all left already.
My mum is a fashion designer, while my dad is an interior designer and my sisters where the schools most wanted bitches. they were everything you'd want in a girl. They've got the looks the class and most of all boys wrapped around their pinky finger.
Don't tell but am jealous of them. I mean they are perfect bitches and I was the complete opposite. I was a lonely nerd with no friends just me and my books. But what still fascinated me was, all the nerds I knew were always bullied but I was different ,izhon was the only guy that ever bullied me.
which leads me to the fact that all the people that tried to bully me always come back to school with broken limbs or worse. And when you ask what happened they never reply.
*****************
.I reached school after fifteen minutes of walking.
I stopped as I saw izhon and his friends looking around and I was sure I was the reason.
I traced my steps back and headed for the nearest escape. God I was so dead.
Look there she is near the blue venza. one of izhon friend shouted.
Go run run she must not escape, izhon also shouted.
I ran immediately but I didn't get to far before I heard footsteps telling me they were close so I entered the first door I sighted which led me to The library.
Lucky for me they were teachers now the problem was getting to class without being noticed. And that I was sure was impossible.
I settled down in one of the sits hopefully my English teacher would go to class soon.
I looked around and my gaze landed on the deep brown head boy with stiff jaws and a piercing gaze.
Izhon he followed me here.
A little birdy told me I'd find you here and maybe get to ask you how my name got to the principal and maybe almost almost suspended. His voice sounded dangerously low and loud at the same time.
I would be so happy of he got suspended . but his gaze brought me back.
I swallowed but had a little hope he wouldn't try anything stupid with the teachers still here.
Here comes the torture. But he did what I list expected ,he sighed and stepped back.
But I forgive you ,he finished.
You what!!! . I know I know I know. I should be happy but it only made me scared that he was planning something i was gonna regret later.
His arrogant smirk was back in his face as he saw me exclaim.
I'll see you later firecracker. He left me and went out the way he came.
Firecracker is the name he calls me and I have no idea why.
I was confused, izhon, forgive me. Now am very sure i was in for it .
"**""*"***""*"*""""**********
Few minutes later i was In class. But I was reluctant to sit. What if izhon had pulled a prank and was waiting for me to sit on it. I looked at him and saw him smiling at me. He Is smiling at me. He looked cute smiling but it would have been handsome. If he wasn't a bad person.
I looked at the chair then at him. He could have put something so i changed my mind and went to sit at the back.
********************
Izhon watched her as she went to sit at the back. His plan was working perfectly.
He was gonna act different make her suspicious and scared that he might be planning something big. Then watch her scare her self to death without him doing anything. And it was working.
**************************
School was over for the day but it was boring without izhon coming to prank me Or try to humiliate me. I sighed and header for the school bus I was still tired from walking in the morning.
I reached the school bus and stopped as I saw izhon come out of the bus. He looked at me and smirked before he headed for his own car.
Why would izhon go to the school bus when he has a car. Does he know I was heading home with the school bus so planted a prank and make the students make me sit in that particular sit .
I saw him leaning on his car, was he waiting for me to enter and then come out crying.
In other words I was not risking it so I'm walking.

I reached home minutes later and saw my sisters in my room and my clothes scattered on the bed. What the hell is going on here.
They both looked at me . Dad said to tell you that Drake would be coming to leave with us for a few months, Patty said and I was dumbstruck for a few seconds , Drake coming to leave with us. Ok Drake was kind of my childhood crush. We almost dated in ninth grade if not for izhon, who caused a rift between us.
So what does it have to do with my clothes.
Well since we taught you might still be into Drake. We wanna take you shopping you have no good clothes. And we want Drake to be so surprised when he sees you all packed up. Maya said and giggled.
Thank you but am over Drake and I don't need help in my choice of clothes.
Oh common Lena would you just loosing up a bit were trying to help here it's not like we're going to get paid for the services we render.
I don't need your help. Thank you.
And do we look like we are taking no for an answer either. Patty stood up from my bed and came towards me.
Take a look at your baggy clothes, she pointed at the pack of clothes on the bed.
These clothes are outdated.no one wants them anymore.. Patty said and I shrugged.
But I do. I put in.
Yeah you do, cause you are also outdated and we want to change that so we aren't taking no for an answer. Patty replied.
Maya stood up and walked towards the door. Enough of the. Chit chat we are taking you shopping either way.
Ok don't tell anybody but this is one of the most happiest days of my life. My sisters taking me shopping. I might behave uninterested so they won't think I like it and rub it on my face. So am just pretending.
Let's go Lena time is going. Maya shouted and I went out of me room. Ok ok am coming.
********†*******
We reached the shopping mall and oh God the dresses they were picking were for first class bitches and I couldn't complain cause they shun me down anytime I try to.
********************
The next morning came ,and immediately I woke up the first faces I saw were my sisters on my reading table.
What are you guys doing here shouldn't you be in your rooms.
Well since you are changing modes of dressing we decided to help you pick a dress.
Patty said and Maya grinned.
I jumped out of bed in a haste and went into the bathroom.
I came out minutes later and saw patty and Maya looking through my wardrobe. Wear this, and this, and this.
They kept throwing clothes.
Guys how many of these am I supposed to wear at ones.
Wear this ,they both said at the same time.
Ok now this is going over board.
I can't wear both why don't you guys both pick a with atop and bottom. That's gonna match together.
Sounds fair. Maya said and patty shrugged.
After minutes of trying out dresses they finally picked a matching dress and I myself would say I look hot.
I picked my glasses and Maya dragged them of my hands. No glasses for today. They said in unism.
I suddenly felt shy, everybody was gonna see me in this dress and the shy nerd was going to become the cook nerd.
Oh I can't wait.
We reached school, and I was even surprised they let me ride in their car.
Was came down from the car and as usual students stared but this time I was also part of the reason.
I sighted Drake in the midst of the student and he walked towards us.
Happy New year Lena. He faced me after greeting my sisters. You too Drake happy new year.
So what's new ,you look different.
No I don't I'm still the same, I replied as his eyes raked my body shamelessly, by now my sister were already gone leaving me with drake.
Shall we. He held out his hand. We may.
I was about joining my hand when I saw izhon conning towards us. Ok have I told you this. Izhon and Drake had history, izhon was part of the reason Drake left losangeles for California and no one knows why.
Izhon kept coming and that was when I noticed his stuff jaws and angered look.
What the hell is going this MOTHER FUCKING CUNT doin here!!! Izhon shreiked . Oh God not again.
Hey man it's nice to see you out there too. Drake said and izhon shut him a glare. I felt something strong hold me and I was being dragged. Izhon was dragging towards an unknown place.
What the hell "firecracker" are you wearing.
Am wearing clothes izhon, and why would you drag me like that.
I tried to loosen his grip but it only got tight.
Izhon let me go!.
I won't until you answer my godamn question. What the hell are you wearing.
Am wearing clothes, let me go!!.
He released his grip and pinched his nose. Am sorry.
Uuh. Izhon is apologizing. I rubbed my sore arm and hissed.
I was dragged back as I attempted to go.
Am not done with you.
What the hell do you want.
Do you still like him.?
What?
Answer me firecracker , do you still like him?
It's none of your business. Am I dreaming. Or do sound like an overprotective boy friend.
The words came out before I could stop them.
I could have sworn I saw fear in izhons eyes before it was turned into amusement.
"You think I like you".
The words came out wrong, I didn't mean it that way. I pushed him away. This time he didn't stop me.
"And just so you no izhon".
I still like him and if he tells me to date him, I will gladly accept his offer at least I would know someone out there apart from my family cares about me.
I hissed and walked away.
***********************
Izhon watched her leave, why was the motherfucker here again. He taught he threatened him enough. And now Lena says she still likes him. He's got to think of something to keep them apart.
*"************
I entered the class ignoring Al the state's I was getting, gosh izhon made me so mad.
And why do I feel rejected.
It's about time you get here, Drake said as I sat.
I had not notice him.
Why are you on Cynthia's chair?
I exchanged sits. He replied and I shaked my head.
Why would you exchange sits Drake, I don't want people thinking otherwise.
That's not a problem to me, let them say whatever they want.
But it matters to me.
Izhon entered the class looking like a cooked fowl, but immediately he saw Drake his face looked worse.
I ignored it and faced Drake.
So what brings you to losangeles.
Well has you've heard my parents are on a world tour and they didn't want to leave me home alone. So they decided I stay here with you.
Why didn't you go with them. I asked
I didn't want to, it's too much work. He replied.
I sighed and looked around the class.
My gaze stopped at a familiar sit and I flinched as I saw izhon's intense gaze.
You have something on your lips, Drake brought me back.
Where ?. I cleaned my lips.
It's right here. Drake replied.
Here? I cleaned.
No it's not there ,let me help you. Drake brought his fingers to my lips and rubbed it.
Paah!!!!.
We heard a noise. Everyone turned their heads towards izhon's table and we saw his desk upside down.
What the hell!!!.
Izhon shouted. He seemed to be staring at me and I squarmed in my sit.
He stood up and went out if the class.
Ok what's going on.
**************
Izhon walked tho and fro in the schools hallway
The guy was really getting on his nerve.
He needed to do something fast.
He didn't like how he was touching her. He smiled as an idea popped into his head.
"Perfect"
Elena
The lesson started but izhon was yet to get to class. Only God knows what caused his anger. The guy has anger issues.
I sighed and focused on the lesson.
We had two more class and then it was time for break. Izhon was also absent during these classes, God I was thinking too much.
