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

'You have double History because of cancellation of History exam.' She said answering our confused face. We all groaned and sat down. Some boy was about to rip his hair out with annoyance. We all laughed and continued with the worksheet.

I knew most of this History worksheet. It was easy if you think about it.  I heard giggling and gasps from the back. I looked back and saw that everyone was staring at the front looking amazed. Cam was smiling and told me to look at the front. I was the only person who wasn't looking at the front.

Then I looked with excitement. It was the Riches. There was three guys looking around. I frowned.

'Told you they were gorgeous.' Cam whispered to me. And I had to agree. One of the boy was wearing a green shirt and baggy jeans. He had black hair. He looked like he didn't want to be here and this class was supposed to entertain him and we failed at it. He had a black cap on and looked so much like a player. I know I'm being judgemental, but if you were here, you would have thought the same thing.

Another guy was wearing a grey, well cleaned suit. If someone else wore a suit in this school, the whole school would laugh but this guy somehow pulled it off. He had blond hair that made him look okay. He was looking very proud of himself. show-off.

Then the last guy was... was amazing. I'm supposed to hate him but I couldn't find anything bad about him. He was amazing. He was wearing a red shirt with a black jacket. He had black hair and blue eyes that stood out. And when he smiled, you couldn't help smiling. Snap out of it Ruby! Never trust the rich, never trust the rich, never trust the rich. 

After I was done. I forced myself to stop looking at him. They all came into the class and said hi to Miss. 'Hello, you must be the new boys, well welcome to this school and welcome to this class.' She said smiling like the rest of the class. 'Take a seat where ever you want and he's a sheet of what you need to do.' She looked at them individually and then gave a sheet. The boys looked around to see where they sit. Everyone was shouting

'Sit here Rick! Sit over here Matt! We will help you with your work Conor!' Talking about desperate. The guy with the cap told a guy to get of his seat and as I expected, he did.  'You can take my seat Rick and I'll help you if you do need help.'

So he is Rick. Rick Riches. He must be embarrassed. Then the guy with the suit sat in the middle of the cheerleading group. 'Hey Matt, we heard so much about you. Do you wanna like go out on saturday if your not busy or anything.'

One of the girls said. He just ignored her and sat down. He must be Matt Rich. Then the blue eyes guy who must be Conor was coming my way. I quickly put my bag on the chair next to me so he won't sit there. Just to be on the safe side. But he stopped at my desk.

He looked back and forth at me and my bag. His eyes were so dreamy. But I had to stop looking at him or else something could happen. 

'My friend Josh is sitting here.' I said while going back to my work. Where is Josh? It's been ages, how can it take this long to take a paper to an office? I looked up. He was still there. He looked like he didn't move at all. The only thing different about him was that he had a bigger smile.

'What?' I said getting irritated. I hate it when people tell me to do things. And I know he wasn't telling me to take my bag of the chair, I just still didn't want to sit next to a rich guy. A guy who was similar to my dad.

'Ruby, let him sit there.' Miss said without looking up from her book.

'But-'

'No buts Ruby, he's new and you're not giving a good impression.'  I looked at the Conor and gave him daggers that said 'dont talk to me or look at me.'  He smiled like he was enjoying this. I got the bag from the chair and he sat down.  Josh came in and saw that Conor took the chair. I looked at him apologetically.

He shrugged, got his bag from the side of the table and sat behind me with Cam. I looked back and saw that Cam was blushing and looking at Josh with amazement. I didn't want to interrupt but I did want to look at what was going on.

'Hey Josh!' Cam whispered. She was happier than when I met Josh.

'Hey Cam, wow you look great.' Cam blushed and said 'you too.' I wanted to watch it all but Cam and Josh looked at me with the 'mind your business' look. I looked back at my work grinning. 'Why are you smiling so much?' That was Conor he was looking at me.

I tried to not look at him and his eyes. 'Nothing.' I said aggressively, trying to make him get the message. 'Aren't you amazed and confused that I sat next to you and not some other person.'

'Amazed No, Confused Yes.' I said. It was confusing though. Why me? There were a lot of seats. 

'Well, It's because I think I don't need to do any work when I'm with you.' He said while passing his worksheet to me. I looked at it. I looked at him.

'Are you kidding me?' I said half laughing.

'No.' He said smiling again. I looked back down, because I was nearly getting lost in his eyes.  'I don't want to do it.' I said annoyed.

'Are you sure? I'll pay you.' He said taking his wallet out. I burst out laughing. Everyone looked at me but then went back looking at Matt and Rick. After 3 minutes I stopped laughing and looked at Conor. He was looking confused.

'I don't want you stupid money okay? Now let me do my work.' I said. He looked angry now.

'Do you know who I am?' Conor said.

'Yes, everyone does. But that doesn't change my decision. Actually nothing will.' I can't believe I called this guy amazing. He was an idiot. I finally saw something in him, that looked just like my dad. Anger.

'Look, there's a limit and you just crossed it.' He said trying not to yell but I'm sure everyone heard. What is his problem? I just told him I didn't want his money.  I looked at Cam who was giving me the 'your going to far' look. She was shaking head.

'I don't care.' I said to Conor. His face was red with anger.

'You will pay.' He said. The bell rang. I walked out of the class. I'm sure all eyes were on me. They looked like they felt sorry for me for what just happened. And for what might happen.

'So how was school?' Mum said while making me pancakes.
'Don't ask.' I said. That one question just reminded me Conor. Was I being too mean to him? I mean, I could have said no nicely, I didn't mean to shout and make a scene. But he mistaked me for one of the other girls. And I hated him for that. He might have been a hot boy but I can't believe how much of an idiot he is. I thought If they're rich, they could atleast hire someone who can help them be smart. But no. All they care about it 'Does my hair look good?' or 'Oh god, I'm tired of that girl, I'm gonna break up with her and go out with her sister, shes hot.'
'It can't be that bad.' Mum said looking at me with concern. I really wanted to tell her about the Riches, but I know she will just bring my dad up again and I'm really not in the mood to talk about him. Actually to think about it, I'm never in the mood to think about him.
'Mum I'm tired, school was a headache so I'm going head to bed.' I said. I took my pancakes to bed. Mum didn't say anything. She knew I wasn't in the mood. I wasn't lying. School was a headache. After I did my big scene in History, I never saw the the Riches. But I did see some evil eyes on me. If they knew the full story, they would be on my side again. Before the Riches came, I was kind of popular. I had no enemies and this school used to be my team. Now that the Riches have came, everyone except for my friends have turned against me. Its scary. It's like your home has turned into a hotel, where anyone with the biggest room gets all the people's attention. That's not the best example but its not the worst.
I went up stairs and sat on my bed. I sighed. 'You will pay.' That made me laugh. Its actually funny when you think about it. I smiled when I remembered Conor's face when I said to him 'I don't care.' It was classic. My phone rang.
'Hey.'
'Hey Rubes, how you doing?' Josh said.
I sighed. 'Fine.'
'So are you coming tomorrow?'
'Yeah, why?'
'No, It's just, what happened in History class was pretty big.'
'Yeah, I know but I am not scared of some poshies.'
He laughed. 'Is that what your calling them?'
'Yeah I missed you so much, you know that?'
'Yeah, you too.' He said.' Oh, I have to go, mum making lunch.'
'Oh okay, see yaa.' I said, kind of dissapointed.
'Oh, and listen, Be careful tomorrow. I've heard the Riches once made someone commit suicide.'
'Really?' That made me more mad at them. 'Wow, thats.... look, I'll be careful don't worry.' I smiled and said bye.
This was creepy. This was creepy because the Riches were so similar to my dad. It scared me. When my mum was telling me about my dad, she told me that my dad didn't hit her. She hurt herself. She wanted to kill herself because that man was a nightmare that will torture her forever. But I stopped her. If it wasn't for me, she would have been gone and I would have lived in a care home till I was 18.
I cleared my head. I brushed my teeth, ate my pancakes and went to bed. I felt really weird, I don't know why. But I had to let go of it. I wasn't scared about tomorrow and I knew I would never back down.


The alarm clock went off for the 6th time.
'Okay Okay, I'll get up.' I said sleepily to the alarm clock. I slowly got up from the comfortable bed and went to take a shower.
After I was done, I looked outside to see if it was sunny. It was. I smiled and wore my blue shirt that said 'Hater's going to hate.'
And wore black jeans with it. I combed my hair and put it in a bun.
'Hey mum.' I said sitting on the stool in the kitchen.
'Good morning, what do you want
