You just moved to California with your mom. Things at the start seem great! But the popular boy at school falls for you, and in return, stirs the drama pot. But some...
Today this is dedicated my bsf Gabby:) - - I got up at 6:00 because I needed to get home so I can get ready for school. Riley's mom drove me back home.
Once I got home I did the usual. Got showered, dried my hair, put on some clothes, and did my makeup. I looked in the mirror to see how I looked. "Perfection" I said.
After my mom dropped me off at school I met up with Riley and the group at our usual spot. I didn't see Morgan though. "Where's Morgan?" I asked them "not sure" a girl with long black hair that I had not seen before, said. "Who's this?" I asked. "Oh, right! Y/n meet Gabriella! She just got back from her trip to Cuba." Riley said. "Hi nice to meet you. Riley told me all about you!" I smiled and gave her a welcome-back hug.. even though I didn't know her well.
My first class was English. None of my friends are in that class with me, which made me nervous. Today was our first day back in our real classes, and not in the study hall. The school had finally completed its renovations. (Took them long enough!)
I was the third person to get to class. I sat in the middle so I wouldn't be too close to the front or too far behind. I started to get less nervous because I started to see some familiar faces. Maybe I could become closer friends with them. A girl with platinum blonde hair and blue eyes sat next to me. I turned to her to say hi. "Hi! I'm y/n" "Hi I'm Emily, nice to meet you!" I froze. Could this be the Emily Morgan told me about?! "By any chance were you ever friends with Morgan Hollister?" "Ugh, yeah." She said rolling her eyes. "That was until she kicked me out of the group. And all because I told her I was going to ask Corey out! Whatever, I'm over that drama. How do you know about them?" "Morgan told me that you were the one who was rude to them. She told me that you were threatening anybody who tried to get with Corey." "No, it's not like that at all, it's all lies! I only have to go along with it because she's my cousin." I couldn't believe what I had just heard. But for all I know it could all be fake. I mean Morgan did say she was a mean girl... right? As the class finally got settled down and our teacher started to begin the lesson, I felt something hit my head. "Ouch!" I whispered. It was a crumpled piece of paper. I looked around to see who threw it, but no one had seemed obvious at the time. I opened it to see what it said. 'Have you changed your mind yet?' Of course, it was Corey! Ugh, I should have known! I looked back and glared at him. "Hey, Mr. Lawrence, can I move up? It's hard for me to see back here." "Of course Mr. Haim, go right ahead!" He moved to the empty desk on my left. "So have you?" He asked. "Have I what?"I said trying to play stupid. "Changed your mind?" He replied. "Change my mind about what?" "You know what I mean!" Obviously, I knew what he meant. I just couldn't act like it. "Look corey, Ive told you 1000 times before and I'll tell you one more time, I don't want-" before I could finish my sentence I was cut off by Mr. Lawrence. "Mr. Haim and Miss. Y/LN you two have both earned yourselves after school detention for talking in my class!" "Oh great" I said sarcastically. "Oh great!" Corey said excitedly with his signature smirk on his face.
***detention***
I hung up the phone after telling my mom I would be late. Then I sat down in my chair making a dramatic sigh. "This is all your fault him!" "No... I do you remember you were talking too!" I glared at him. "Well, maybe you shouldn't have thrown that piece of paper at me! I mean why do you want to be with me so badly anyway?" "Well, at first I thought you were really pretty, but now I see that you like to play hard to get, and you're not like every other girl that's always begging to be with me. it intrigued me I guess." I looked at him. He was blushing, and to be honest, I was in total awe of what he just said. But I couldn't let him know that so I just rolled my eyes and said; "ugh as if!" "Just let me take you on one date, please! And I'll leave you alone after that, I promise!" This was a good deal. I mean what harm could one date do? And I'd finally be able to concentrate in school again without him bothering me constantly. "What do you say?" He said. I paused to think. "Fine! But only so you will leave me alone!" He smiled. "Don't let this get to your head though!" "Too late!" He said winking.
***after detention***
As soon as I got home I ran up to my room to get ready. I put on a red dress shirt, with a cropped tux and a polka dot skirt, and paired it with red heels and some silver hoops. I left my hair alone because it already looked nice as it was. (honestly my hair kind of looks like Heather grahams.)

^(Your hair and your outfit)^
I went downstairs and waited on the couch.
After a few minutes, I heard a knock on the door. "Oh that's probably him, I have to go now!" I said to my mom. I opened the door and was greeted by Corey. "Woah," he said and held out his arm. I hesitated to take it at first, but my mom was right there so I kind of had to. "See you later Mom!" I said as I walked out the door. "You look very pretty!" Corey said. "Thank you. You look nice as well, but remember this isn't a 'real date' so don't get too excited. I only did this so you would leave me alone." "No, you didn't." He said. "What do you mean no I didn't?!" "I mean you're pretending to not like me, but I know that you were actually looking forward to this." "And how do you know that?" "Well, for One, if you didn't care about the this date, you wouldn't have dressed up nicely." "That does not mean anything, Corey Haim!" "Maybe not, but Riley told me that you liked me." "How could she tell you that if she doesn't even know-" I cut myself off Because I remembered that while we were playing truth or dare at the sleepover she had asked me if I liked Corey after I picked truth. "She's lying!" I said. "Oh really? So you would hate me if I did this?" As the green light turned red he leaned in and crashed his lips against mine. I didn't try to stop him, and I didn't try to pull away. It's hard to admit this, but I was enjoying the kiss. He pulled away as the red light turned green. "you didn't stop me!" He said chuckling. "OK FINE! So maybe I did enjoy that kiss and maybe I do like you but-" Corey cut me off. "YES! I knew it! Ha!" "But we cannot date." I finished. Corey pulled into the parking lot of our destination. "Why not?" He said. "Is this because of Emily?" "No. It was at first, but now it's not.... it's because of Morgan." While I was waiting for Corey to come pick me up, I had called Emily and asked her to clear some things up. I had also called Riley to see if she knew anything but all she said was 'no' and 'that explains a lot of what's been happening lately'. "She doesn't have to know," he said. "Well, maybe not. But isn't that a bit too risky? I mean gossip spreads fast! He looked at me with a desperate look on his face. "Then we won't tell anyone at all!" I couldn't fight him anymore, I wanted to be with him, so I gave in. "Ok fine! But I have to tell Riley and Gabriella! They are my best friends and I can't keep secrets from them!" He paused to think. "Well alright." He smiled. "We should go inside now." I nodded my head and took Corey's hand as he helped me out of the car and lead me into the the restaurant. ———————————————————— -Brynn Also this pic made me think of "the group" lol.
