So this day began normal. Nothing special. I got dropped off at school by my dad and now I'm standing with my friends in the cafeteria, waiting for school to begin. There are some few other people here, including Ashton and his Devils. If you ask who the Devils are, well they're Ashton's 'fangirls'. They're always drooling over him. If you even come near Ashton, you're their biggest enemy. God, I hate that guy. I have a few classes with him, like history. I don't get why everyone likes him. I mean, yeah he's good looking, and smart, but nothing special.

"Sierra!" Ashley looks at me.
Wait, I guess I forgot to introduce myself. Well, I'm Sierra Conewell. 18 years old and in my senior year of high school. I have everything I want. Good grades, skinny, a lot of money; everything I could wish for. I'm not popular. I was popular, but as soon as they saw I didn't gave a shit about the money, I went down again. I'm happy with that, all those eyes on me made me nervous. My dream is to become a successful Profiler some day. Now, I'm having a few real friends and no boyfriend. My heart got broken a few months ago and since that I hate almost every guy. Except a few but they are my friends.
some guys are still hitting on me but I don't give a shit about that.

"Sierra!" Ashley says again. Ashley is one of my best friends.
"What?!" I reply.
"You weren't listening!"
"Sorry, go on."
"Good, as I was saying, I wanted to throw a Halloween party. And everyone can come and.."
"Wooh Woh Woh, hold it right there. Everyone?!" I say.
"Yeah, my parents aren't home with Halloween."
"But then I need to survive a whole night with Ashton and his Devils!"
"Oh please, you'll live. It's for one night and besides, the house is big enough. With a little luck you won't even see him."
"Ugh, fine. But I don't promise anything."
"Thank yooouuu. You're the best, you know that?" She hugs me.
"I know. I'm way too soft." I laugh while I hug her back.

Then the bell rings and the happiness disappeared. My first class is history. History at Monday morning. Well, at least I'm having that class together with Ashley.

We walk to class and take our seats next to each other. Mrs. Buckwald comes in and everyone is quiet at once.
"Goodmorning Class. Today we'll start with a project." She says while she packing out her stuff.
"May we do this in partners?" Someone screams.
"Yes, you'll do this in groups of 2 persons." Mrs. Buckwald answers.
I smile to Ashley, we're always partners with projects.
"Not so fast everyone, I've made the partners."
I sigh and cross my fingers under the table. Mrs. Buckwald grabs a list and begins to call some names. After a few I hear that Ashley's partner is Tom Carter. I smirk at her and wiggle my eyebrows, Tom's been her crush since 2 years now. She sticks her tongue out to me and whispers
"I hope your partner is Ashton."
"Oh please, I rather work with..."
"Sierra Conewell and Ashton Irwin." Mrs. Buckwald says.
Ashley covers her mouth with her hands trying not to laugh. I let out a sigh and rest my head in my hand. This can't get any worse.
"Oh god..." I whisper.
"That were all the groups. If you have any questions just come to me. The rest of the hour you'll start with your projects." Mrs. Buckwald says while she takes her seat behind her desk.
"Good luck." Ashley says before walking away to Tom.
I let out a sigh again and see that Ashton's coming this way. Ugh...
"So... We're partners." He says while he puts his stuff on Ashley's table.
"Apparently."
"Okay.... Well, let's just start with choosing a subject."
"The presidents of the United States."
"Why?"
"Because they're very important and it's Mrs. Buckwalds favorite subject."
"Alright then, the presidents of the United States it is.. I guess."
I open my books and look for something that's relevant to the subject. I can see from my eye corner that Ashton's looking at me with a confused look. I also see that I'm getting glares from Devils. I try to ignore Ashtons stare but that isn't easy.
"What?" I ask at one point looking up to him.
"You seem... Angry." He says.
"So, just work on the project. How earlier we finish this, how earlier I don't have to see your face anymore."
"You don't like me very much, do you?"
"How did you guess?" I sigh.
I saw he wanted to reply but the bell rings and I think, this is literally saved by the bell. I grab my stuff, stand up and walk away. Just when I'm about to walk into the cafeteria I hear someone scream my name.
"Sierra. Wait up!"
I sigh, turn around and see that Ashton's coming this way.
"What now again?" I sigh.
"Just come over to my place this afternoon so we can work on the project."
I think for a second. I really don't wanna go, but I also want a good grade for this project. I sigh again.
"Fine, I'll see you after school." I say and I walk away.
When I walk through the cafeteria I get glares from all kind of girls. I ignore them and I walk over to Ashley.
"And.... How did it go?" She asks while I take a seat.
"Horrible."
"Oh, c'mon Sierra. What's so wrong with him?"
"A few years ago... Before you came here, I had another bestfriend. She had a crush on Ashton for years and when he finally asked her out, she was happy all day. They had something for a few months and she was really in love with him. After those few months he broke up with her over a text. She was heartbroken and didn't come to school for a few days. When we were walking through the halls, people would always gniffle or point at her, saying that she was stupid that she thought Ashton loved her.... Suddenly she just transferred to another school without telling me a reason. I never seen her since. Besides. My heart got broken too. I just fixed it up a little, I don't need it broken again." I tell her the story.
"Wow. That's harsh." She only says.
I nod my head and try to change the subject.

The rest of school was boring and after school I walk to the parking place. I see that Ashton's already waiting for me. Let the hell begin....
