fuckers into the ground yet in those days.
Then one day I was picking on some asshole with busted shoes and he got all holier than thou. He seemed to think that these blood sucking poverty-stricken kids from the other side of town were just like the rest of us when we all knew they weren’t. Sanctimonious prick, I’d like to smash his face in.
He even went so far as to befriend the kid, taking him to his house and shit. Like that was going to change anything. The kid didn’t even hang around long after that. But that didn’t make Jace change his opinion of me. I’m sure those parents of his that looked down on everyone else, had something to do with it. With the way he just cut me off and acted like I was nothing. They’d never had me over again, not even when everyone else was invited to their precious son’s birthday parties.
Since then he’s been giving me the cold shoulder and a wide berth. I’d long since given up trying to get back into his good graces, fuck him, but it still burned. Because of him others had started treating me like shit too, even fucking Shane who met Jace long after me. No doubt he had told them not to talk to me, why else would they treat me like a fucking dog?
Now they’re the ‘in crowd’ and I was left out in the cold. Even after I’d made an ass of myself trying to get back in his good graces, that asshole had barely spared me a glance, like he was better than me. So what his family had a few more millions than mine did, my family’s still as important as his no matter what these idiots around here think.
The fierce anger built almost out of control as I watched the golden couple walk across the field hand in hand, grinning at each other like they didn’t have a care in the world. The rage was barely contained and only because there were too many eyes on me. I was long past the point of caring if he could take me or not. Next time we faced off he wasn’t going to walk away breathing. I thought of the gun hidden in my locker with a smirk.
My eyes turned to the girl at his side. I wasn’t able to hold back the sneer on my face but no one was looking, they were too busy laughing and having a good time like my life wasn’t fucked. The air sawed in and out of my lungs as the pressure built. I folded my fists as thought of what I wanted to do to her coursed through my head. I bet she won’t be laughing when I get my hands on her, stupid bitch.
Why couldn’t she have given me a chance? That day she’d come on to me I knew I’d beaten Jace at last, I could all but taste the victory. Finally I would have something the great Jace Sanders wanted. It would’ve been so good. But then he’d dragged her away and they’d gone off together and she’d come back wrapped around him with fucking hickeys on her neck like a bitch in heat just like the rest of them.
That brought to mind the other stupid bitch who was still on his dick. Her I’ll be sure to take care of special. She was just as bad as Jace, treating me like I was beneath her. Thinks she could use me and then give me the brush off. She wasn’t even Hollywood royalty, just the stepdaughter of one of the town’s elite, not blood. I think she forgot where she came from, or I guess she thinks no one knows or remembers. I can’t wait to remind her that she was nothing. Just another gutter rat with a slut mother who’d fucked her way to the top.
I sent one last glare their way before making my way onto the field. The game used to mean something to me, used to be my only escape. But then Jace had to take that from me too. He always had to outshine me. It was like the guy was deliberately sabotaging my happiness. I heard their laughter behind me. No doubt they were talking about me again. I’m gonna make them all pay.

“J ace get your hands off my ass.” She grinned up at me with the sun shining down on that hair of hers, eyes bright and happy. I’d been working hard to put that look back in
