Andrea
I sat on a stool in the library, my red hair in a high pony tail. I was bent over a book on Napoleon for a project in history. Honestly I couldn't careless about Napoleon's uniform or what he ate for dinner but to be in sports and get a good scholarship I had to have good grades. I continued reading about Napoleon's personal affects for the next hour before I pulled out my notebook and started writing.
Somethings never change. I will always be the girl on the football team. The outsider. No matter how many games I help the school win no matter how many times I defy the odds I will be the outsider. I will never be in the 'in' crowd I will always be sitting on the very edge teetering back and forth. Before I would try my hardest to not fall off the wall but honestly now I couldn't careless. Why had I let myself fall for him? It was stupid. I can not explain it any other way. But I just would like to know why for once I could not get something I really wanted with out having to fight for it. Why couldn't everything come easy to me, like Allyson? Well, then I wouldn't be me, I would be my sister. I am tired of fighting so hard and having to reward at the end. Why don't I just give up? Honestly I have no clue. So I will walk out on that field take my jersey with Cardwall written across it accept for the next few months I will be known as Cardwall not Andrea. I will again be hidden under a helmet and shoulder pads but that is the one thing I love. I will take the consequences and one day be seen in the light I strive for, and I will keep fighting till I get there.
I capped my purple pen and stared at the page
