Prologue

Sam's POV

Worst day ever.

Today was the first day of my freshmen year at Eastvale High School. I'd had high hopes to make a friend when I finally got here... But it turns out, no one wants me. They all want Ben.

My big brother. He's a senior and popular. He has so many girls crawling all over him, and he loves it. He's a TE on the football team and he hangs out with the rest of the popular crowd... Including the stupid skanky girls. I don't know how many times I walked in on my brother and some random chick in our house... Then they'd treat me like I'm some sort of maid. Like, what the hell?

And for some reason, he doesn't see it. He just laps up all the attention, showing off for anyone who will bother to look. It's disgusting how he acts like he's God's gift to the world.

So does his stupid best friend Ares... But I don't want to talk about him. Ares is the QB on the team. He is THE MOST popular boy in school. And I get it he's handsome and suave...

Once upon a time I had a crush on him... Until I realized what a player he is. When he was a freshman, he'd had a girl in his room every single day of the week... and they weren't even the same girl! Ew! No thank you! I have gotten over my stupid little crush on him years ago. Now I just try to stay away from him.

I'd much rather find a nice guy who just likes me. I don't want to be a number or a notch on his bed post. I've been looking for a nice computer nerd type guy. They wouldn't be like Ares and Ben, right? They wouldn't treat me like some slut.

Today I had 5 different girls coming up to me asking me if I could get them to Ares or Ben. The short answer. NO! I would not go up to my brother and Ares and beg them to sleep with some random chick who will suddenly pretend to like me, until my brother or Ares ditches her for the next flavor of the day. It never turns out well for me in the end.

I swear I haven't had my own best friend that didn't want anything to do with Ben since I was in Kindergarten... And then she moved away. I still miss Lucy. At least I knew she was mine!

Now I have nobody. Do you have any idea how lonely it is growing up under my brother? I can't get a single damn friend. All the girls just use me as some door mat to get what they want.

Since then, it's been the same damn thing. I'm so tired... I'm tempted to change my last name... Or better yet, call Aunt Jenny and ask if I can move in with her. She lives 3 hours away. There is no way anyone would have heard of Ben Jones! Better yet, I won't have to look in that smug face of Ares ever again! I'm really starting to like this idea!

Someone bumps into me and I land in the lockers. My shoulder stings, and I rub it trying to get rid of the pain faster.

"Oh! I'm sorry," a cute guy turns slightly as he gets pulled down the hallway by some girl. He sends me a wink and I can't help the blush.

I wish like hell I had a boyfriend of my own. Am I really not date-able? I know I'm not ugly... I'm pretty! Not that I'm stuck up like my idiot brother or anything, but I have long dark brown locks and deep green eyes that match my brothers. I have a curvy figure, but I'm not fat. What the hell is so wrong with me?

Why can't I have a sweet boyfriend like any normal girl? One that wasn't all about attention. Just me and him... But I doubt I'll be getting that until I make it to college... Somewhere far away from my brother and his player best friend.
