Why Me ??? by Tasha M. (ebook reader for pc .TXT) 📖

Do you ever get the feeling that no one likes you that you don't fit in, or are even bullied? Well if you do join the club, because I have felt like this for years. Any way I'm Ashley Groove, I am fifteen years old, have long raven black hair, and I am emo. This horrid life of mine started in fifth grade when I had embarrassed the most popular girl in school. That one mistake is what took my life. This is how my life came to an ending.

The Beginning
It was my first day in a new school and of course I was really nervous. I probably shouldn’t have been considering I have attended seven different schools this year. Making friends normally was an easy thing for me, but other times it was difficult. I had just gotten to the cafeteria when a group of girls confronted me,” Aren’t you the new girl? Ashley... I think.” “Yeah I’m Ashley, and who are you?” The first girl in the group, more than likely the leader replied,” I’m Amy, this is Annie, and that’s Angie.” Each girl waved at me and smiled. Amy had long straight blonde hair, Angie had medium curly brown hair, and Annie had long curly red hair. I could already tell why they were talking to me so I cut to the chase,” Look can you give me a few minutes to get used to the new school before you want to become Bff’s.” That look at first got me a nasty glare from Angie but the other two didn’t seem to mind. Right then I could tell this was going to be a rough school life.

I had just gotten into class when I realized all three of those girls from this mourning were in my class. I slowly walked up to the teacher to tell her who I was when she exclaimed,” Hi, I’m your teacher Mrs. Snarzoski. You must be Ashley.” I reply with a smile,” Hi, I’m so glad to be part of this wonderful class. Um where do I sit?” “Oh well you get to sit by Amy. Amy raise your hand so Ashley knows where to sit.” Amy raised her hand and smiled at me; I smiled back and walked toward her. As soon as I sat down Amy whispered to me,” She’s a really nice teacher but she is insane. No one believes me but Annie and Angie, you believe me right?” I thought about it for a moment and nodded, Amy took that well,” Good as long as you agree with me we can be Bff’s.” When she said that I gulped, could this day get any worse?

The first month at school was going great, but today felt like something bad was going to happen. All of us were by the swings talking when Angie asked,” Ashley why don’t you ever talk about your family?” It felt as if my heart had literally stopped, they were all looking at me expectantly so I answered quietly, “I never talk about them because they all died.” Angie looked as if she might have just caused the end of the world but Amy stepped in, “I’m so sorry, Angie why did you have to bring up such a sensitive subject!” Angie quickly apologized I replied,” It’s okay I really haven’t talked about it in so long.” Amy took this as an opportunity to snoop around,” Oh, what happened to them?” “Oh um they died in a really bad car accident. I was the only one who survived, my twin also survived but about a week later he died.” I then changed the subject and everything seemed to go back to normal. Amy had a strange look on her face; I couldn’t tell what she was thinking about.

We all soon left for lunch, this was the time of day Amy flirted with all the guys trying to get herself known to the guys. Our school had every grade considering it was a boarding school, so this was the best thing for Amy, Angie, and Annie. They flirted with everyone and we all looked about sixteen so this helped get dates with seniors. Every Friday and Saturday night I was alone in my dorm while the others had dates. I shared a dorm with Amy and Angie we had a lot of fun sometimes we would have guys come over and throw a party. We had all just gotten our food and sat down when the captain of our football team, Jared, came to our table. He looked at me and smiled,” Hey Ashley, I was wondering if you wanted to go out Saturday?” My heart began to beat rapidly as I smiled and said yes. He told me where he would take me and what time he would pick me up then he left. Amy looked at me angrily,” What was that?! You know I like Jared.” I quickly got out of my daze and responded,” I thought you were over him? You were just saying how you liked his twin Jeremy.” Angie got an evil glint in her eyes then whispered something to Amy. She lit up and asked me,” How about we double date Saturday? It would be fun.” I responded cautiously,” I don’t know it seems like he wants it to be just the two of us.” She then said she would take care of it and walked off, leaving me with Annie.

Annie was the one I actually liked and she was happy I got Jared instead of Amy. “So if you don’t like Amy why do you hang out with her,” I asked curiously. “Well I only do because she is my only friend,” she replied. I thought for a moment,” How about we start our own group and Amy can have Angie?” She thought about it and smiled,” Sure pack your things you are moving into my dorm.” We both lit up and went to get my things.

We entered my room to see everything thrown about my room. Annie looked around and said,” I hope you won’t do this to our dorm.” I looked at her and said,” I didn’t do this. My room was clean when I left this mourning.” We looked at each other confused, then Amy walked in the room,” Sorry I was looking for something.” I reply,” Did you find anything?” She looked at me and smiled,” Yeah I did. You can have it back if you figure out what it is.” I looked around, I found my photo album but I couldn’t find my diary,” Give me back my diary!!” “Sure. Catch”, she said tossing it in the air.I caught it and began flipping through the pages only to realize that every page with stuff about Jared in it was gone. I grew so angry that I could’ve sworn steam was coming out of my ears, I was just about to punch her in the face when Annie reminded me that we had to get my things.

It took about an hour or two in order to get my things moved to Annie’s dorm. After I was done unpacking it was about dinner time so Annie and I began to walk down to the cafeteria. When we entered the cafeteria my heart was ripped in two, at the back of the room I saw Amy making out with Jared. I stomped over to her and screamed,” What do you think you’re doing?!” She replied casually,” I think I’m making out with my new boyfriend.” I looked at Jared with pleading eyes and asked,” Is this true?” He looked as if he was forced to nod and reply,” I’m sorry Ashley but our date is canceled.” I could feel tears burning to get free from my eyes so I ran as fast as I could out there.
Annie’s P.O.V.

I saw Ashley run out of the room and almost followed her when Amy said to me,” Annie this is a war. If I were you I would choose sides carefully.” I looked her dead in the eye and said,” I have and I choose to stick around with Ashley. Amy what you have done is just wrong. Jared I hope that you’re happy because you just lost the best thing that walked into your life.” As I turned and began to walk away I could’ve sworn I heard Jared mumble” I know”.

Ashley P.O.V.

I was sitting and crying under the bleachers when I heard someone approach me. When I looked up I had no idea who he was but he looked like a god. He had crystal blue eyes, really pale skin, and raven black hair. He must have noticed me staring because he said,” Yeah I know I’m a freak.” I was astounded,” You don’t seem like a freak to me. Hi I’m Ashley.” He smiled and said,” Ah the famous Ashley. You’ve only been here
