To Love A Pretty Girl - Redhead16 Marisa (guided reading books txt) 📗

I wasn't totally sure that I would like J.K. Rowling's latest book, but I did. I loved it a lot. I closed the back cover and set it down. I looked at the clock. The school bell was about to ring to start class. I was already in my seat at the front, close to the teacher's desk. Alexandria, the creepiest girl I've ever met, made her way to her usual spot in the back. I looked around for my crush, Cree. Strange, she wasn't here. She always makes it to class on time. Sure enough, she ran in just before the bell rang.

"Sorry," she panted. "I had a meeting with another teacher." she explained to Mrs. Gomez.

"That's fine." Mrs. Gomez said, not really paying attention. Cree sauntered to her seat, ignoring me totally. I wasn't too surprised, we havn't spoken since seventh grade, since I completely embarassed her on accident. I gazed at her for a moment, right before Amber Tanguin interrupted my thoughts. She swished right by, waist-length strawberry blond hair following her. She also ignored me. Typical, especially since she owes me money, and she's the most popular girl in school. She's beautiful, confident, and witty. She set her purse down on my desk.

"Do you mind?" I asked her, pushing my thick glasses up my nose.

She shrugged. "Not really." was her response. At that moment, I wanted to kill her. She had chosen me as her victim of torment two years ago when I accidently spilled milk on her shirt. To make it fair, she had blown pepper in my face and I sneezed without warning. I don't regret it.

I picked up the straps and set the bag down, and when I did, she glared at me. "Mrs. Gomez, " she said innocently. "Daniel reached over and picked my cell phone out of my bag!"

People glanced our way, and some frowned at me, others at her.

"I saw what really happened." Mrs. Gomez said. "You were purposely trying to irritate him by putting your handbag on his desk." I smiled. Score one for Daniel Reayn. But I knew this satisfaction wouldn't last long. Amber would just find some other way to torture me. I picked up my Science notebook and textbook.

At that moment, a beautiful girl with long brown hair walked in. Her eyes were a hazel/blue color. When she locked eyes with me, my heart stopped. My eyes moved to her lips, which were thick and full. And red. For the first time, I noticed her clothing. Her skirt had to be only five inches long, and her halter top was cut to expose. All of the other men turned to face her. I turned and noticed Amber frowning a little. "You must be Raina." Mrs. Gomez said.

"No, my name's Cree." she explained. "I'm here for two semesters. I mean, quarters."

"Tell us about yourself."

"I was homeschooled, I have an older sister that I live with, and I have a child." My heart stopped again.

"She's my world, and her name is Teri. Had her when I was fourteen. That's all I will say about my life right now." she said.

"Okay, thank you. And thanks for telling us about your daughter. I can relate," Mrs. Gomez said.

I knew something was wrong. This girl...she looked oddly familiar. She looked like...Cree. Cree looked exactly like her, but she didn't dress so brazen. This girl was definitely not Cree. She was too salacious, and she had a daughter. Cree was still a virgin.

 I knew that for certain. She was pure, a Virgin Mary. Besides not having the Son of God. Well, who knows? I certainly didn't know everything about Cree. I don't even know the name of her first boyfriend.
