Description
Meet me - Vanessa Thomas - the definition of a nerd. Quiet, shy, a bookworm, I've got all the 'geeky' traits. And then there's Jake. Jake James - the definition of perfect. Handsome with his chocolate hair and entrancing weapons known as his eyes. Not to mention popular and captain of the football team. But sadly with a hot guy, there's a stalker - this stalker being Heidi. She stands at the top of the social hierarchy. Heidi is the dictionary denotation of what you would call a 'Queen Bee'. A person who latches and grows from the attention of others. The school 'Queen Bee' Heidi fawns over Jake, as if he's hers - yet she gains no attention. And for the essential growth that Heidi needs for optimum popularity, she'll do anything. And I mean absolutely anything... ___________________________________________________ "Vanessa. Hear me out right now. Please," he begs. "I'm not interested." I go back to my book. He grabs my arm, gaining my attention. "Just a second," he says. "Tell Heidi. I'm sure she's interested," I sigh. "Can you at LEAST LISTEN!" He yells, shocking me in my seat. Belittled by his sudden outburst, I finally give in. "Fine. What is it?" I suspire. He begins awkwardly scratching the back of his neck. "Wow. You shouted at me to listen to you and then you can't even tell me." I pause to check if he's going to say anything. "Heidi is literally down there... just ta-" "-I like YOU. Okay!" He interrupts, exhaling deeply. "Why can't you stop being in my mind honestly!" He says, running a hand through his hair. "... erm. What did you say?" I hesitate slightly. "I. Like. You." He clarifies, his gaze melting me. He likes me? Jake James - heir to the Montez industries likes me? Me, Vanessa Thomas. I blush furiously. ___________________________ Save me from a world of drama and a girl who wishes for my impending doom. Cause that's the life of Vanessa Thomas. Me.
