After the telling off of Mia’s entire life, her and Ryan were ordered to stay behind after school for detention. She’d tried to argue that it was all his fault, but the principal said that her reaction had still been ‘disproportionate’. Mia would have argued further if it hadn’t been for the fact the principal threatened her with putting it on her permeant record. That wouldn’t help her college applications. So here they were. Just the two of them in front of some crusty old teacher who clearly didn’t have a life to go home to at the end of the day. Mia had already taken out her homework and had started filling it in. Although it was hard to concentrate when the person who was ruining her life was sitting right next to her. She was so uncontrollably angry with him, that she still hadn’t stopped shaking. The sudden sound of snoring filled her ears, and she jerked her head upwards to find that the teacher who was meant to be watching them, had fallen as

When Mia got home that night, all she wanted to do was escape to her room and forget about everything that had happened. However, as soon as she entered the house, it became very clear that this wasn’t going to be the case.Her mom was waiting for her on the stairs, and she had that look on her face that told Mia she was in for a lecture.“So, your principal called today. Apparently, you thought it would be okay to assault Ryan Lee?” Carla gave Mia a hard look. She knew her daughter was having a hard time, but this was beyond anything that she would have ever expected.Mia let her bag drop to the floor. “Did he explain why I’d done it?”Carla straightened her shoulders. “Mia Fernwood. Whatever the reason, violence is NEVER the answer. I thought I’d taught you better than that!?”“He read out my diary Mom! MY DIARY! I was a laughing stock in front of the whole school!!”Mia had

“Hey, Mia!”Mia swung around to find Tilly calling after her. She stopped, and waited for her to catch up. What was this going to be about?Once the other girl stood before her, she shifted her weight backwards and forwards, struggling to keep eye contact.“Listen, I just wanted to say I was sorry about yesterday…with your diary and everything.”Mia tried not to let her expression betray how she was really feeling. “It’s fine. Those guys really aren’t worth it.”Tilly bit her lip. “Have you thought any more about the article? Brooke asked and well…seems like you kinda owe them one back.”Mia sighed. So, was Tilly just here to chase her up about the article? For a moment she’d thought…no. It was stupid to think like that.“Er no. I still haven’t decided. But honestly, I’m thinking about leaving it anyway. I don’t want any more

After their conversation, Mia retreated to her room and only came out to use the bathroom. There was no way she could face any member of this household right now. Sensing it was better to leave her to it, Carla and Bob allowed her to be alone.Mia couldn’t even process how her mom could ask her such a thing. Her last name was one of the last things she had left of her dad. She never ever wanted to lose that.The next morning, she expected a fight about her going to school, but there wasn’t. Instead, she heard the house get ready for their day, and eventually, leave. Once she was sure everyone was out of the house, she breathed a sigh of relief.Despite the problems it had caused, Mia wrote in her diary. She’d decided on a new hiding place for it anyway, and was sure Savannah wouldn’t be able to steal it again.She began to draft alternative escape plans.Run away and find a normal job to support herselfJoin t

Ryan hadn’t planned on having this conversation. He’d hoped that his Mom just wouldn’t find out. Why did Savannah’s dad have to have such a big mouth?“It wasn’t her fault, Mom.”Angela laughed coolly. “So, she throws a tray at your head, and you’re telling me it wasn’t her fault? And what’s more, she hasn’t even contacted me to say sorry. I had to hear it from Bob Miller! Is she expecting to just walk in on Saturday like nothing has happened?”Ryan placed his hands on the kitchen table, trying to ignore the stack of beer bottles in the corner of the room. He wondered briefly how many more would be sitting there by the end of the night.“It’s complicated. Alright. I sort of deserved it.”His mom narrowed her eyes at her son. “What do you mean? What did you do?”Ryan scratched the back of his head and cast his eyes downward. “I re

Mia couldn’t quite believe the phone call had happened. What was even more shocking, was the fact that it sounded as if Ryan had been the one to convince his mom to keep her on. Why had he done that? He had been horrible to her this whole time. What was his end game here?However, now she knew she definitely still had a job, she wanted to check in with the college advisor again. If she explained that she’d secured employment, maybe the old cow wouldn’t insist on her joining an after-school club. She couldn’t bring herself to write that damn article if she didn’t have to. Mainly because she didn’t want to think about that crowd anymore than she already was.Mrs Parkinson was wearing another loud edition of a floral blouse. Mia wondered if she had all her clothes made from old curtains.“So, I was thinking, now I have the Saturday job at the hardware store, isn’t that enough with my grades for my applications?”

Mia knew she was grounded, but she wasn’t sure if being grounded meant she couldn’t have friends round either. She wasn’t going to ask, but was sure that if they were caught, her mom would be too overjoyed at the fact she actually had a friend.“I can’t believe I’m standing in Savannah Miller’s room.”Tilly was gaping at the room as if it belonged to the Queen of England. Mia just rolled her eyes.“Yeah well, start looking, because we won’t have much time until my mom or Bob gets home. And I can’t face another one of their lectures.Savannah’s room was everything Mia had expected. A space entirely covered by soft furnishings all in various shades of pink. She walked over to one wall where Savannah had pinned a thousand photographs. They were mostly of Savannah herself, posed in different positions designed to make her look as beautiful as possible. She caught sight of one of her and R

Mia and Tilly spent the next few days ‘watching’ the popular kids. Mia had decided she was going to use the diet pills incident, but she needed more than that for the article. She hoped a bit of observation would be sufficient as long as the she had Savannah’s secret in there.Tilly and Mia were half hiding in the trees a number of yards away from the football ground, books open in their laps to make it look like they were busy with homework.“Are we really going to be able to see anything from here?” Tilly was craning her neck round the trunk of a Scotch pine.“Well we can hardly just go and sit in the bleachers, can we? They will know somethings up if we’re in plain sight.”“I know but…I can’t see us getting anything useful from here either.”Mia knew Tilly was right. So far, their recon of the popular crowd had pulled up nothing. This wasn’t helped by the fact that th

“Being part of the popular crowd may not always seem as perfect as you might think. It’s easy to see these kids as carbon copies of what a teenager is meant to be. To someone on the outside they are witty, wear the most stylish clothes, not to mention their seemingly God and Goddess like bodies. Everyone wants to be them, or the very least, be their friend. But are they really all that?What if I told you that the most popular girl in school, the Pom-Pom Princess herself was taking diet pills. Yes, you read that right. Diet Pills. How many of you have been bullied by Miss Miller for being overweight? Too many to count I’m guessing. How ironic is it then that she herself doesn’t even have that slender frame naturally? In fact, you may be taking the very same diet pills. There’s even a chance she’s caught you taking them and ridiculed you for it. And those ‘friends’ that seem to dutifully follow her round? Are you sure they ar

It was the last practice of the week, which meant coach always rode them extra hard. He knew they’d take the weekend off, so this was his way of getting the most out of them. Ryan and Tyler were changing into their kit in preparation, already moaning about what might be coming up.“Damn I hope he doesn’t make us do bear crawls for ten minutes straight like last week,” Tyler grumbled while lacing up his boots.Ryan sighed. “Don’t. I’m so not in the mood for his military man routine tonight.”“At least my brother pulled through on the beers for the creek later though.”“True. I’m gonna need them if it is bear crawls.”As they stepped out the changing rooms, Ryan glanced over to where he knew the cheerleaders would be stretching. He saw the small crowd of skimpy red outfits, but did a double take when he realised there was a new girl amongst them. Was that? No…it coul
