This is some of the first chapter of Ghosts. Keep in mind that this is just a teaser and some things may change. I WILL NOT be posting this story for a while!!! OtDE isn't done for a bit. I just wanted to tease you guys. Here it is.
Kristen:
Liza wraps her arms around my waist and squeezes me tightly. Gabbie throws open the schools doors.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY KRISTEN!"
People I know (so pretty much anyone in the hallways) cheers and pats me on the back, muttering their congratulations. Being popular does have its upsides. Gabbie and Liza scoop me up and carry me down the hallway to my locker. They place me down at the blue box covered in streamers and un-filled balloons. I unlock it to see two shiny boxes inside.
"Are those... gasp... PRESENTS???"
I laugh and tear into Liza's box. A delicate ring sits nicely in a velvet cushion. I stick out my lip and pretend to sniffle. I rip open Gabbie's. It's a delicate chain necklace with a "K" hanging from a pendant.
"Aww, you guys!"
I give them a big hug.
"I have to do to class, but I love you both."
"Yeah same. Happy birthday!"
Gabbie blows a kiss and I pretend to catch it, spinning around in circles and clutching my chest. I walk down the hallway, glancing at people as I go by. There's the nerds: Jack, Korey, Tabitha and Willie. The cheer squad: Casey, Agnes, Tamel and Chris. And then we have the pool I'm supposed to pick from, the funny, smart, attractive jocks: David, Todd, Scott, Zane and Heath. Of course there are outliers - people will lie in between one group or are aquatinted with everyone. People think that I got popular by being nasty. Or at least the Unnameables do. They got pushed to the bottom of the high school hierarchy for being a bag of dicks. I keep walking down the halls, not paying attention to where I walk. I step into someone's bag, crushing their papers and sending myself flying... right into Heath. He laughs at me at picks me up. I turn around and apply to the girl whose essay I probably ruined. Heath shives me playfully over to Scott.
"You take her. I'm not getting framed for cheating!"
Scott turns tomato red and looks away. Everyone knows how his ex tried to get him in the D list by framing him for cheating on her. Didn't work, needless to say. I smile at him and keep walking. I slide into my spot just as the bell rings.
