Tiffney’s life...

Life sucks. There is no “perfect” life. Everyone has that something that makes them imperfect. Weather it’s their clothes, hair, house, or car. But sometimes it could be something unfixable like personality, their face, or body. Many people want to be perfect so they pretend that they are perfect to get in the popular group. Popular people think they are the best in the world, they think they are perfect. They have the perfect car, the perfect boyfriend, the perfect friends, and the perfect clothes. But sooner or later they will find out that the perfect boyfriend isn’t so perfect, those so called “friends” really don’t care, and everything else can be gone in a flash of a second. Just ask Tiffney.
Tiffney was a junior in high school she was head cheerleader, dating the captain of the football team, named Zach. She had a red convertible car and all the clothes in the world. She was very stuck up, and thinking she was better then anyone. She always had the rest of the cheer team with her. She went to any and every party she was invited too. She was very popular everyone wanted to be friends with her.
She and her boyfriend were the dream couple they had been dating since freshmen year. Zach was a senior and getting a scholarship for football. Tiffney was going to try to graduate early so she could get a scholarship for cheerleading and go to college with him. They had their life all planned out. They were even engaged. She was so happy that she found a good guy that would always be there for her and be faithful to her. Or that’s what she thought he was.
She had a crowd of friends but two of her best friends were Sarah, and Sasha. They had been her friends since freshmen year, they were her first set of new friends. Sarah and Sasha were twins. So they were really close until Tiffney came along. They were more sisterly with her then with each other. They did everything for Tiffney just because she was popular. But Tiffney knew that she needed to not take advantage of them because if they left her side the rest of the team would. But soon she found that they were never really friends with her…
All of this changed when she was heading home from a party. It was rainy outside and the roads were very slippery. She couldn’t see where she was going and a turn was coming up. She didn’t see it. In a flash of a second she had lost her car and soon to find out a lot more then just the car…She would have changed her whole life that one second and she doesn’t like it at first.
She woke up 2 days after the crash in the hospital. She woke up to nobody in there. She looked around for some one to find out what’s going on. Nobody showed for half hour. She tried to get up but soon realized she was stuck because her leg was in a cast and hanging up on a splint. Finally the doctor came in and she looked at him and asked what had happened to her. He told her that she was driving home and she went on the opposite side of the road she was going 50 mph. A car crashed into her and totaled her car. She then asked him where her friends were, her boyfriend and her parents. The doctor said her friends and boyfriend never showed up. He said he called everyone that was in her contact list so they would all know. Then he said your mom was here but had to leave because she got in a fight with someone on the phone.
She was so shocked that none of her so called friends were there at all. It’s not like they didn’t know. That’s all she could think about. Zach didn’t even show up that shows how much he really cares for her. She was mad for a little and very sad. Then the doctor told her something that made her wish that she never made it out of the crash, she wished she died there. He said that she could no longer cheerlead. She was very depressed after that. All she did was cry. She thought about how it ruined her plans with Zach and how he would take it. Also she thought about her team. She thought about how they wouldn’t be able to go on with out her.
The day she was allowed to leave, after a week in the hospital, her mom came to pick her up. She was so happy to go home maybe someone showed up to see her there. When she got in the car and her mom started to drive away she asked her mom if anyone showed up like Sarah or Sasha or Zach. Her mom said, “A guy named Matt showed up and asked if you were ok and left you flowers and a card.” Tiffney was so shocked she didn’t know anyone named Matt and her friends can’t even take time out of their life to see her but Matt did. She then thought “well maybe they were busy with practices and didn’t know if I wanted company and didn’t want to bother my mom.” Tiffney’s one problem is that she always makes up excuses for everything and everyone. She never really thinks about the situation.
She then found out from her mom that they had lost the house and their money. She was moving from a three floor house to a mobile home in the middle of nowhere. She no longer had a car because she crashed hers and since her family didn’t have money, they can’t fix it or get her a new one. She just wanted to break down. She had enough bad news she just wanted to go to school and drop everything going on and go see her friends and boyfriend.
After 2 weeks on bed rest she was able to go to school still in a cast but she figured that everyone would be able to help her. She didn’t tell anyone that she was going to go back to school because she wanted to surprise everyone. When she got there everyone was looking at her and she was wondering who Matt was, as she was walking by everyone down the hall in a cast and on crutches. She then went to the football field under the bleachers where her crowd hangs out before school and to her surprise no one was there except Zach and Sarah. When she walked up there, she just saw them talking. When she got closer she heard them talking about going to Junior Prom together. She got very upset. She turned around and went to the office to call her mom. When she got ahold of her mom and told her mom to come get her, her mom said that she was unpacking and couldn’t. At that moment she felt like she was going to break down and cry. When she got up to go to class she saw someone pick up her books for her. She looked over and saw a guy with black short hair. He looked at her, smiled, and asked if he could help her to class. She was so shocked, she’d never seen this kid before and he was willing to help her go to classes and carry her books, but she was being the stuck up popular girl, because she was at school and told him not to touch her books and grabbed it and walked off.
While she was walking to class, all she could think about was what happened in the last few weeks. She was confused about how everything could go so wrong. She felt like her friends forgot about her, her boyfriend didn’t even ask if she was ok. She felt alone for the first time and she was scared of it. She didn’t want anything in her life to change. She just wanted it to be back to the way she was when she thought she was happy.
Her first class was English. She used to like this class because Zach, Sarah, and Sasha were in it. Now she was dreading the moment they walked through the door. While she was thinking about what was going to happen she heard Sarah yelling around the corner. She was on the edge of the seat thinking about what she should say to Sarah, or even worse what will Sarah say to her. In a minute, Sarah and Zach walk through the door at the same time. All she could think was how that was supposed to be her. Zach was the first to recognize Tiff and he came up and gave her a hug and kissed her. Then Sarah looked at her with a nasty look and she didn’t understand why but Tiff ignored it and looked at Zach, she missed him so much. His kissing, his touch, his eyes, everything. But she could feel something changed with him. She couldn’t put my finger on it at first. But she felt it.
He asked her how she was feeling and saying how he missed her and he was glad she was back. The entire time he was talking she felt like saying he looked and sounded like he missed her this morning under the bleachers with Sarah. She turned around to look at Sarah to see if she still looked mad. She gave me nasty eyes again so I turned to Zach and asked what her problem was. He looked at her then at me and hugged me and said that the car that hit me was Sasha. When she heard that she started to break down she was crying uncontrollably. She remembered the doctor saying the person in the other car didn’t make it. She was pronounced dead on the scene. When the teacher walked in and saw her crying she asked what was wrong and Zach said that she just got out of a car accident and it was her first day back for almost a month and just found out that her best friend died in the accident. When the teacher heard that she said that she should go to the guidance office and talk to someone. So she did, the guidance office said it would be better if she went home and they called a girl named Amy up to give her a ride home. When Amy got to the office she was wearing jeans and a tank top that just passed the school dress code. She had a backpack full of books and 2 books in her hand. She came up to Tiffney and said hi then grabbed her books of the chair and told Tiffney to wait there for a second.
When she got back she told Tiffney to go with her and helped Tiff in the car then got in the drivers side. Tiffney was so worried that she would say something about her home because it was a trailer and very messy. Amy told Tiff that she had to stop at her house to get her moms card for gas first. When they got there tiff was so shocked Amy lived in a trailer too. Even though it was cleaner on the outside she still felt less worried about what Amy was going to say about the house. Then after a few minutes Amy came back out and got in the car and
