Oh! How I hate my body! Nobody wants with me just for my extra pounds.

<<Y/n come on. You're gonna be late to school.> My mother shouts from the kitchen, interrupting my thoughts about my body in front of the mirror .<<Coming>> I shout back, putting my backpack on my shoulders and going down the stairs.When I got there I was about to leave the house when my mother stopped me

<<Aren't you forgetting something?>> And I go back saying goodbye to my mother and little brothers before leaving the house. Not having a car I have to walk to school but I don't mind too much it was only a 20 minute walk and luckily today I wasn't late so I could take it easy. I finally arrived in front of the school and went inside. <<Maybe I would have done better to stay outside>> I thought because as soon as I stepped inside all eyes were on me and many of them expressed disgust but I tried to ignore them and head to my first class: Math, thank goodness even though most people hate it I love it so much that I can call it one of my favorite subjects. As soon as I entered the bell rang announcing the start of the lesson. I looked for a place to sit and noticed that Rory was not sitting in her usual place in the back of the classroom but in the front row. It seemed strange ,to me, but I didn't pay much attention to it since the professor would soon be coming in and If he had seen me standing I don't want to imagine what would have happened So I took Rory's old seat and pulled out my pen and notebook. However, when I raised my head I noticed that the seat in front of me, which had previously been empty, was now occupied by a boy or rather not just a boy but Beckett Langley, the most popular guy in the school and quarterback of the football team.

<< Hey darling>>He tells me, turning to see me better

<<How many times have I told you not to call me like that?>> I told him, rolling my eyes and trying to hide the smile.

<<Mhh, I don't know, I was too busy looking at the most beautiful girl in school>> he replied

<< How cheesy we are this morning and who is "the most beautiful girl in school" quarterback? >> I said smiling.

<<You>> he said without any esitacion while he still look at me in the eyes.

<< Pfft stop. I know you're lying and if you need to copy my homework you don't need to compliment me>> I said trying to hold a smile even if my words hurt me this was the truth.

<<You don't think you're beautiful?>> he ask me but before I could answer the professor enter in the class.

<<Sorry,guys if I was late but now we can start the lesson>> he said while trying to catch the breath. Oh my god,I couldn't be more grateful that he enter in the perfect time. Beckett looked at me one last time before turning over and listening to the lesson. Time passed and the bell rang again announcing that it's time to change classroom and start a new type of lesson. While everyone was leaving the professor scream

<< Remember the test that you're going to have next week>> nobody heard him or say goodbye so he sat on the chair, sad, preparing for the next class.

<< Thanks for remembering sir. Have a good day>> I respond to him smiling. I may have been the last to leave and I was sure I would be late but I didn't care much. He looked up and smiled at me.

<< You're welcome Y/n, have a good day too>> that's the last thing we say before I go out and let other students enter. The school day passes so quickly that it was lunch time. I head to the canteen and get in line waiting for my turn while I look at the tables.

<<Hey girl>> a voice behind me said

<<Becks how many times do I have to tell you that- >> I stopped while turning around

<< Oh, hi Zara>> I said embarrassed for confuse my friend with the one who drives me crazy << Sorry I didn't recognize you I thought you were...>>

<<Your beautiful prince, Beckett Langley>> she interrupted me

<< Oh, shut up you know I DON'T LOVE HIM>> I said

<< Yeah,yeah😏>>she responded and I stay all the line convincing her with the fact that I don't love the popular boy but she doesn't listen to me and after got the food we were still "fighting" in the corridor while going to the AV class to find the other girls.

<< What's the argument of the day>> Ginger asked when she see me and Zara enter.

<< Well, our Y/N IS so in love with Beckett that she calls everyone with his name>> Zara responded while sitting next to Ginger and smiling with the others before they all start screaming for joy.

<< oh, shut up>> I said laughing while sitting next to Rory and continued<< I only called you like this because I thought you were him. Beck and I were fighting this morning in Maths class about the nicknames he gave me and when you didn't use my name, like I said before, I thought you were him. That's it>>

<< The traduction is: this morning Y/n was talking with Beckett, trying to fight with him because she doesn't want him to know that she loves him.>> Rory explained to the others

<<Thanks for the explanation Rory>> Callie said smiling. Ugh these girls really love to tease me

<< Yeah, thanks Rory even if you have to remove the love part.>> I told her and they all start laughing and after a short while I join them. We continue chatting for the rest of the break until Jordan asks us a question: << So tonight we'll meet at 20:30 to see the match?>> Every girl say yes expect me which caused all 10 pairs of eyes to turn to me <<And you Y/n?>> Jordan asks me <<I don't know girls, I have a lot of homework to do>> <<Perfect then you will come!>> Zara interrupts me

<<No, I can't, I have to do a lot of homework and look after my brothers. Furthermore, I'm sure my mother wouldn't leave me and then I don't understand anything about football .>> Okay then Ginger told me but before I could sing victory Rory takes my phone from my backpack and hands it to Zara who turns it on and starts searching for someone's number . Damn Why did I tell them my password? But before I could get the phone it starts ringing and soon after I hear a voice. <<Yes, hello what's up Y/n?>> Perfect they found my mother's number and now she is on a call with my friends <<Hi y/m/n, It's Zara>> <<Oh hi Zara, how are you? Everything OK? >> My mother asks her

<< Yes, I wanted to ask you if y/n could come with us to watch the football game tonight?>> Zara asked to my mother

<< Oh yes, of course she is always doing her homework and never go out I think that this is perfect to her.>> My mother responded

<< Perfect, thank you. Bye. >> And they hang up.

Zara gave me my phone but before I ask them why did they did it ,the bell rang and they all say goodbye to me with a smirk on their face knowing that now I have to come. Well, I hope it's gonna be fun and they don't pass all my time shipping me with Beckett. The last hours of school pass too quickly that now are the 20:25 and I'm running the fastest I can to arrive at school. Ugh I'm sure that if I was slimmer I would be more faster. But I arrived and found Rory, Zara, Jordan and Ginger already sat in the front row so I'll join them while catching the breath.

<<Oh finally,there you are. We thought that you were never come.>> Ginger said trying to don't let me know how worried she was.

<< I'm sorry girls>> I said

<< Well, you could at least wear something nicer. It's not like you're gonna play>> Zara said while looking at my outfit. Maybe she was right but it's only a match not a date so my blue hoodie, white T-shirt and black wide leg trousers were justified but before that I could respond, the 2 teams entered in the field and everyone start to clap for a while. I touched Jordan arm and she looked at me

<<Why aren't they playing?>> I asked

<< Well, they are warming up before they start>> she answered to me before looking at her phone

I ignored what she was doing thinking she was chatting with her boyfriend and start looking the camp and the players before Rory said

<<A photo consume less>> referring to the quarterback while Zara laughed and add <<Well, you should repeat it to the quarterback too>> I look at her with a confused look but she points to the field and continues laughing with Rory about what's happening .

Why was Beckett approaching the stands? Will he want to say hello to someone? Nah maybe he's catching the ball but then why is Carson laughing? Did he make a joke while he was warming up? But my thoughts are interrupted by a voice.

<< Hey sweetheart>>

<<Beck? What are you doing here? Did you forgot that you have a game to win?>> I asked to him trying to don't smile so much about his presence

<< Oh don't worry babe>> I roll my eyes at the nickname and he laugh before get on with the conversation << I'm only here to get a thing?>>

<< And what's this thing quarterback?>>

<< A good luck kiss from the most beautiful girl in the school.>> He said while looking at me waiting for the kiss. The coach was calling him but he didn't move.

<< Well like I said this morning I don't know where she is, but if you tell me her name I think the girl and me can switch seat so you can see her better>> I answered trying to figure out who the mystery girl was but the only thing he did was grab my cheeks and pull me into a kiss. It was only some seconds before he said

<< Thank you cupcake. See you when the game ends>> and he comes close to my ear, whispering,<< you'll be rooting for me, right? I want to take you somewhere later>> But before I could answer him, the referee blew the whistle to announce the start of the game so Beckett leave me in my trance state , but turning to smile and wink at me. It will be an interesting match.

*Autor space* hi guys, I hope that you liked the story even if it isn't so much but it's the first I wrote . If you're wondering the characters are from a book called "curvy girls can't date quarterbacks" by Kelsie Steltin.
