1. Trust - The Promise by Jade is Awesome (bookstand for reading .TXT) 📕

'Isn't he gorgeous?' Cam said for the 6th time.  

'What? Yes he may be gorgeous, but what happened to 'you shouldn't judge a book by its cover'?' I said. 

We were talking about 3 new boys who came to Cam's class. She was talking about someone called Rick. All who are hot and all who are mean.

 'Ruby, I am not talking about books, I'm talking about Rick, Matt and Conor!! Aren't they gorgeous boys or not.' She squealed. We were in my room.

We were supposed to be doing homework but Cam had other plans. I love Cam. Her name is short for Cammie. And calling her Cam isn't just obvious but it suits her. She is really beautiful. She has black short hair whereas I have light red hair. She has blue eyes whereas I have green eyes. And she tries different kind of fashion every week while I stick with a shirt and jeans. I rolled my eyes and got up from the bed.  'Wanna drink something?.' I said.These boys were really rich. Cam's dad worked in the company of Mr Riches, the father of the 3 boys. And Mr Child got a really big salary.

 'Yeah, juice. Talking about boys is exhausting.' She said while rubbing her forehead. 

'Yeah, theres too much words to describe how much of an idiot they are.' I said. Cam got up and tickled me on my right shoulder. My weak spot.

'Okay Okay, Sorry!' I screamed feeling ticklish all over. After she stopped tickling me, she said she had to leave. 

'Yeah, my mum gets worried when I just go out to put the rubbish away. And if I am 3 seconds late she will call the police and cry her eyes out.' She said while mocking her mum. I laughed. It's true. Cam's mum - Mrs Child is always getting worried for no apparent reason.  When she went, I went downstairs.

 'Hey, Mum what's for lunch?' I said, hungrier than ever. Its was lasange. Let me tell you something about lasagna, It is the most amazing food, I have ever ate. No, it's not food, Its gold!

 'Thanks Mum, This is awesome!' I said while squealing.  Mum put her hands on her ear. 

'What did I say about you and screeching?'

 'That I shouldn't do it?'

 'YES! Please, I have a massive migraine'.

Thats mum-talk for SHUT THE HELL UP!

 'Ok, I'm going to eat this gold in my room.'

Before she could stop me and give me a lecture of the 'no food out of the kitchen' policy, I zoomed upstairs quicker than you could say lasagna.  I loved my mum. She was the only person who understood how I felt when dad left.

This is because she felt the same way. Angry.My dad isn't dead. My dad isn't sick. My dad is a bastard. He left my mum. How? Well my mum and dad were doing fine until my dad became famous. He was signed up into businesses and enterprises and was very rich.

We were so happy for him until one day he thought that we were holding him back. I was only 12 when this happened. He came into the living room and told me to go to bed. It was only 6pm but even from a young age, I didn't want to test his mood. I went up and I heard shouting and some furniture crashing. After 10 mins I heard the door bang shoot. I went to my mum and asked her what happened. She was crying and had some bruises. I couldn't hear a word she was saying.

After a while, she started to hold back her tears and told me about my dad wanting to move to Florida.....Alone. My mum already caught him cheating a lot of times but my dad always made it up to her and stupidly, she let it go. So Florida was the worst thing. When my mum was done, she took me to my room and told me to go to sleep. I didn't know how to after all this was happening, but I don't think it was an option. She tucked me even though she never did that. And she told me something. Never trust the rich people. I didn't ask what or why. I just smiled weakly and fell asleep. This reminded me of the new boys in school. They were called the Riches. Weird that their surname is Riches and they are rich. And they reminded me of my dad even though I haven't met them.

 Just when I thought about this, I was put off from my lasagna.

'For the last time Ruby, don't take the sides off from your bread!!' Mum shouted.

I was eating toast for breakfast. I took the sides of toast because I hate it. Sides are the worst. They're in my 'What Would You Ban' Book.

When I was done, I went upstairs and got dressed. I wore a white shirt with a bright yellow cardigan. And I wore blue jeans. With it, I wore a big necklace. I like to fiddle with some object when I'm nervous and today we have a History exam.

It's a small exam but I always take my exams seriously. I go downstairs and tell Mum that I'm leaving. 'Okay, Bye and good luck on the exam.' She said. I was about to go when she stopped me. 'Yeah?' I said kind of in a hurry because I need to revise some of my notes with Cam.

'Well, I'll be coming home late tonight, too much work in the office.' She said while handing me a key for the house. My mum works as Computer Software Engineer. She takes her work serious like me. My mum has green eyes that make her very different from me even though me and my mum have the same hair, nose and anger. 'Okay. Bye.' I said before hurrying it out of the house. 

I went to Grange Tom Hill Highschool. It has a big name and it is a big school. I walk into the massive school entrance and look around for my friend. Before I know it, someone put their hands on my eyes. 'Cam?' I said smiling. And then the person took their hand off my eyes and I looked at them. It was Josh! Josh was my best friend in the world. I thought he left school because his parents were moving somewhere else but he's right here!!

'Josh, What are you doing here?' I said while giving him a massive hug. He was wearing a grey jacket and big black trousers. He was the most hottest boy but he didn't care. He had blond dirty hair and blue eyes. He was amazing but he was just a friend. And I knew he wanted me a long time ago. But he knew what it would lead to. And he liked Cam now. And even though people think I'm a fool for not falling for him, I just didn't want to risk our friendship by being together. But he was still the funniest, smartest and the most honest boy I have ever met. I'm not really keen on boys since my dad, but Josh is different. He understands me in so many ways. He's just like Cam but he doesn't hide what he wants to say.

He just says it.  'You wouldn't guess it, My dad had an option to where he wants his job and he obviously chose here!' He said.

How much I missed that voice of his. 'This is great! Have you told Cam about this?' I couldn't even talk properly. I was so happy. I thought my mouth was going to rip because I was smiling too much.  'Well, She's looking for the new boys who came to the school, you know the ones who are rich and stuck up.' He said sadly. I was glad in two ways. First because Josh was jealous of Cam so it might lead to Josh telling Cam about how he felt. He liked Cam for months but he never told her. He never said but he thinks that Cam might reject.'She deserves better' he always says to me. How can anyone be better than this guy right here.. And secondly another person in the whole school agrees with me about these 'rich and stuck up boys'.

'Well, glad you agree, I-' I got interrupted by the stupid bell. It always rings at the wrong time.  'Lets get to class, Have you done your revision for History?' I said to Josh while walking to class. 'Didn't you hear? They've cancelled it.' Josh said smiling.

'What?' I stopped in my tracks. I revised all night for nothing?

'Why Josh, did something happen to the teachers?'

'Well no, Its something got to do with the new boys who came.'

'Stupid Riches.' I muttered. I went in to class. Miss Rain was teaching us. She's really nice but when she gets mad, she gets really mad. 

'Ok class take your seat.' Miss Rain said. She was pretty and young. That's why everyone liked her. She was only 24 and always understood everyone. Like once, there was a girl wanted to go to the loo, and Miss gave a face that said 'is it your time of the month?'

And if the girl smiled, Miss would let her go. Its was a girl's secret and we loved it. We sat on the middle table.  'Right, you might have heard that History was cancelled because of some people's requests.' She said. The 'some people' must be the Riches. 'So most of you people are happy about it and some people are annoyed that they had to revise for nothing.'

Look ,she so understood us. 'Don't worry, we will have the History exam next time.' Someone groaned at the back.

'Can everyone take out the worksheet that we did before and finish it for the lesson.' She said.'

Oh and Josh can you give the paper to the receptionist.' Josh got up, took the letter from Miss and went out. I was about to take my worksheet out when Cam walked in. Miss didn't say anything. She knows we won't learn even if we do get a lecture about being late. Cam smiled at me and sat the row behind me.  'Where have you been?' I said turning around. 

'To the toilets, where else?' She said, acting innocent. If I didn't know her much, I would have believed her. But I knew her since I was 7.

'Look, Josh told me about you going to see the boys.' I said angrily.

'Wait. Josh is here.' Her face lighted up. 'Oh My Gosh, how come you didn't tell me?'

'Well, I just did, didn't I?' Cam was going to say something else, when Miss told us to get on with our work.  I gave her the 'we have to talk later' face.

She nodded. When class was over, everybody was getting up to go. 'Class? Where do you think you are going?' Miss said looking offended by our movement. I was confused, just like the rest of the class. The bell rang didn't it? And if it didn't, did the class dream it?

'You might have missed an exam, but
