Her Nerd Next Door

The Bad Girl Blushes

Still in Jennie's pov.

I am literally so embarrassed right now.

Ninja rolls...

Seriously!!

Now Lisa...

One of the most POPULAR girls in the school...

Probably thinks I'm a nerd...

ON DRUGS.

My mom and dad kept asking questions about my first day over dinner, but I couldn't concentrate on what they were saying.

All I could think about was my friendly neighborhood Lisa who can see right inside my bedroom window.

And who has seen me make a complete fool of myself.

You know what?

Curse who ever built these houses.

And curse who ever made Lisa look like a freakin god.

What if I saw her tomorrow?

What if she saw ME tomorrow?

I came to this school to blend in, not cause any attention.

It did me pretty well at my last school.

I mean, I always considered myself pretty average actually. I never had some popular girl want to ruin my life before.... so that's a plus.

...

What can I say?

It always happens in movies.

"So are you teachers nice, or -... " my dad begins to ask but before he could finish, I interrupt him, picking up my plate.

"I'm actually not that hungry, thank you for dinner though." I say, standing up.

I felt bad because usually it's pretty easy for me to talk to my parents, but after...

Recent events...

I have a sudden urge to sit in my dark closet, alone, and rethink my life decisions.

"Plus I have to write something for English, so I should probably go to my room to get it done before I get too tired to do it later." I lie.

"Okay honey, just don't stress yourself out, you haven't even finished your first week of school yet, so don't let it get to you." My dad says.

I give him a small smile and nod my head before putting my dish away and going back to my bedroom.

Well, at least I wasn't completely lying.

I did actually have English homework, I'm just not worried about getting too tired to do it later.

And that probably has something to do with my nonexistent sleep schedule of going to bed a three am every night because of Netflix...

But they don't need to know that.

"Write a 4 paragraph essay why it is important to have wisdom."

Oh right, this...

Where do I even begin? I mean wisdom?

Everyone has to have that.

Even little four year olds who are just starting their own journeys.

Here let me help you, yes, it is important to wash your hands after you use the bathroom.

Then even the, I'm gonna say, the older guy at the retirement home who sits in the corner and asks anyone to play chess with him.

You're old, you can now pick up all the ladies you'd like, it won't effect your future negatively in a bad way.
