"Kylie! Wake up! You're going to get late for school!" I heard Zoey scream.

Since I was still too lazy to say anything, I just moaned in response before sleeping normally again.

"Kylie! Kylie, if you don't get off that bed right now- I will throw a bucket of ice right on you," Zoey threatened but I just ignored her yet again.

"Okay, that's it," I heard her say but continued my slumber. She would have probably thrown water but ice is just too far.

Suddenly I shot up out of bed, as I realized what happened. Zoey threw a quarter bucket of ice to wake me up.

"What's wrong with you?" I yelled, jumping out of bed to get rid of the cold as she doubled over in laughter.

Remind me never to not trust Zoey when she says something..

"Zoey," I whined whilst shivering, "What the hell?" 

"Your f-f-face!" she said before she fell to the ground, holding her stomach as she laughed a lot more.

"Amusing. Now get out," I told her pointing at the door.

"Killjoy," she muttered under her breath before walking away.

"I heard that!" I called out.

"I don't give a shit!" she yelled back causing me to chuckle a bit.

"Make me a sandwich!" I told her screaming so she can hear.

"Cool!" I heard her yell back. Awesome.

Grabbing the crutches against my bed, I got my clothes out of my cupboard and walked into the bathroom to take a bath and brush my teeth.

After taking the bath, I put on a tank top with denim shorts to go along with it and paired it up with a pair of studs.

I got out and put on some mascara and lip gloss to make myself look at least a bit presentable and once I was satisfied with my look, I headed down.

"Sandwich ready?" I asked.

"Give it a second,"

"What have you been doing this whole time?" I asked incredulously.

"Making my own sandwich and eating it, of course," she replied.

I rolled my eyes at her.

"Just hurry up," I told her.

"Make me," she shot back.

I sighed and narrowed my eyes at her.

"You know what? I'll make it myself," I told her, my hand reaching out for the bread. She slapped my hand away.

"I was just messing around. I made it ages ago," she told me revealing my already-made sandwich.

I rolled my eyes and shook my head. "I don't know whether to thank you for making it or slap you for teasing me," I told her.

"Thanking me would be a good choice," she said.

"No can do. I just remembered that you threw a whole bucket of ice on me," I said.

"Yeah, yeah. Whatever," she shook me off.

I looked at my watch and my eyes widened.

"Zoey! We're late for school!" I yelled and practically shoved the whole sandwich in my mouth, grabbed my bag and ran out the door.

"Coming!" she called out behind me. I was waiting for Zoey to come out and right then, she came out and locked the door behind her. I glanced at my watch again. 2 minutes. 

Zoey tried to go as fast as she could. Why couldn't this car go faster?

I cursed under my breath as I tried to walk fast with my crutches in the hallway, bumping a couple of freshman along the way. Muttering a sorry every time I bumped into someone, I finally went into class.

Zoey just didn't bother running and came behind me taking her time. She still hadn't reached when I hurriedly got in.

I opened the door, breathing heavily, and the whole class just stared at me. I felt myself going red and I kept my head low as I blushed.

Mr. Zac motioned for me to come to him.

"Can you tell me why you're late again?" he asked sickly sweet.

"My crutches slowed me down!" I complained.

"Then you should have come ahead of time in order to not have been late," he said.

I looked down as if my shoes were the most interesting thing in the world.

"Detention tomorrow after school," Mr. Zac spat and handed me a yellow detention slip. I sighed and just went over to any empty chair. Finally, I found one next to a girl and I went over. I gave her a small smile before sitting down but she just rolled her eyes.

'Someone woke up on the wrong side of their bed today,' I thought as I pressed my lips into a thin line.

Zoey rushed in ten minutes after I did. She apologized and was handed a detention slip as well, but hers was for today.

Mr. Zac had started his lesson but I couldn't listen to a word he was saying. The lesson and the three following up went by really slowly.

After what seemed like eternity, it was finally lunch.

I got out of my class, struggling to hold my books and crutches together. Sean came out of nowhere and offered for helping me out.

"It's alright," I assured.

"Just give it to me already," he told me, shaking his head, a small smile on his face. He took it from my hands despite my protests.

"Thank you," I said.

"Anytime," he replied.

"So, where are you heading off to?" he asked.

"It's lunch, dude. Where do you think I'm going?" I asked.

"To lunch?" he asked with uncertainty. 

I laughed at him and nodded, rolling my eyes.

"To lunch we go then," he said. I would have mocked a salute if I didn't have my crutches but now that I do, it's going to be a bit hard.

We were on our way when I bumped into someone. Wow, I just set a record for bumping into people today.

"I'm so sorry," I said and looked up.

"It's alright. Hey, wait a second. You're that girl!" she exclaimed.

I just smiled at her awkwardly, not knowing what she was talking about.

"Your the girl who dances-" 

"Oh, that. The competition was long ago, I didn't even know that it would stay for-" I was interrupted the same way I interrupted her.

"No, no. I don't know what competitions you're talking about. I was talking about the videos," she told me. I didn't even know this girl, how does she recognize me if not for the competition?

"I don't get you. Sorry," I told her, completely confused by what was going on. I looked to my side and Sean was listening to our conversations carefully.

"You are famous at the moment. Literally," she told me, widening her eyes.

"I'm really confused," I admitted.

"Check the internet," she said before looking at her watch, "Hey, it's time for class. I should go,"

She sent me a wave before heading off to her class. I think she was a freshman cause I never saw her around but whatever she said really confused me.

I was going to check what was going on right after I reached home. For now, I was just going to concentrate on school.

Facing Sean again, I took the books from his hands.

"I'll just dump these in my lockers and come," I told him and went over to my locker. I punched in my code and dumped the books in my hand inside and shut it once again.

Kody had come over to me and I limped over to the benches.

We talked for a bit before I brought up the topic of the freshman coming up to me and telling me a huge load of absolute nonsense.

"Well, that's a first," she said, her eyebrows raised.

"Yup," I replied, letting the conversation slide for now. I wanted to figure what was going on first.

The bell rang and we all groaned knowing that it was time to face the dreaded teachers again.

Oh, someone, please help me from this school...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The last few lessons passed by in a blur and soon I was in the car with Zoey, returning home.  I was taking my time until I remembered that I had to check out what she was talking about.

I quickened my pace as much as I could and shut the door behind me once I entered my room. Limping over to my laptop, I picked it up and threw it on the bed before climbing on top of the bed as well.

I switched on my laptop and went onto Facebook. I had over a hundred notifications. I've never had so many before. 

What was going on?

I clicked on the notification I was mentioned in and checked it out. My jaw dropped open and my eyes became blurry as it welled up with tears.

I gulped and looked at it closely.

Yup, it was me. It was not only me but also my whole dance routine and choreography. It was all over the Internet.

And guess who posted it there?

The one and only...

Ryder.
