Wilted Roses - Ch.10
Chapter 10. Hand in Hand

ADRIAN:
        Audi was so cute right now that I couldn’t help but to feel embarrassed. God, I’m such a loser. A hug from her and I’m a nervous wreck. I stood up and brushed off my palms, reaching out to her to help her up.
        She took it hesitantly and stumbled to her feet. She looked at Keith, who looked extremely pissed. She shrunk back as if hit by an arrow and tilted her head downward so that her long hair would cover her face like a veil. The audience stood by silently, watching us for the next move.

Chapter 9. Thumpity Thump Thump, the Song of the Heart

AUDI:
        Throughout the rest of the day, I couldn’t stop thinking about what he said to me. There was no possible way for me to focus on anything other than that. Every time I heard Adrian’s words pop into my head, my face flushed crimson. I didn’t feel this way when Keith had asked me. Sure, I blushed back then too, but my heart didn’t go crazy like it did now.
        I put my palms to my cheeks. Hot.
        What was wrong with me? I moved

Chapter 8. Dodge Ball Bullets, Frightened Victims, Hostile Enemies, and a Match to Remember

ADRIAN:
        Audi went silent. It seemed as though her mind was trying to make sense out of what I had just asked her. Her expression was blank at first, but then turned into something close to shyness. She nervously twiddled with a strand of her caramel-brown hair.
        “What do you mean?” she asked timidly as her eyes darted to the wall in order to avoid mine.
        The sight of her cheeks flushing a rosy pink

Chapter 6. Philip’s Brave and Foolish Comeback

ADRIAN:
        “Ms. Harper is really nice,” Philip said between sips of orange juice. “She let me sit out in the hall while the other kids did all of the dissecting. Though I don’t see why we should even dissect animals. I mean, of course it’s educational and stimulates the thinking process, but it’s just too scary.”
        “Uh huh,” I agreed blankly, not hearing what he was talking about.
        Philip continued, “I

Chapter 7. Rendezvous in the Nurse’s Office

AUDI:
        “Philip,” I said as I stopped him in the hallway. “Have you seen Adrian?”
        Philip looked over his bony shoulder and blinked twice before answering me. “Uh, um, I-I saw him earlier today near the vending machines but he seemed really irritable. I don’t know where he went, though. S-sorry.”
        I sighed in disappointment. Where could he be? “It’s okay. Thanks, anyway, Philip. I… guess I’ll see yo

Chapter 5. Geeks and Screamo

AUDI:
       All throughout Biology class, Leah made my life a living hell. Well, not literally, but the anxiety was enough to make me feel like I was going to hurl. She would look over her shoulder at me and smile. That was it. It made shivers run up my spine; I even preferred her glaring at me instead.
       To make it even worse, I fell out of my seat when the deafening ring of the bell sounded, almost getting trampled by the stampede of eager students.
       I picked myself up and watched the students scramble out of the room. I saw my old friends leave me behind. They would have stayed and helped me

Chapter 4. The Encounter of the Cuddly Teddy Bear and the Apathetic Grizzly in P.E. Class

ADRIAN:
        I didn’t know what to say when Audi demanded for me to answer her question. I couldn’t just up and tell her, “Oh, he said you weren’t pretty—and I think you’re pretty, so I gave him a little bruise to show him he was wrong. Tee hee.” Jesus, that’d be the end of me.
        So what did I do? It wasn’t much better than telling her the truth. In fact, it made her angry; one of the last things I wanted to make happen

Chapter 1. Keith Benson, the Prom, a Punk Rocker, and a Death Circle of Barbie Girls

AUDI:

        Everyone knew about Keith Benson. I mean, he was only the hottest guy in our school. If someone asked one of the students here what ‘perfect’ meant, do you know what they’d say? That’s right—they’d say Keith Benson. He had the looks, the brain, the brawn, the personality, he had everything. Every single girl in our school swooned over him; I swear every one of them had his MySpace picture framed in their purse.
        Everyone except

Chapter 3. Audi and the Imminent Revenge of Leah Truman—Ex-Girlfriend, A.K.A. Dragon Queen

AUDI:
       When the teacher's lecture had finally ended, class was dismissed. Several students cheered at the sound of the bell and scurried out of the room. I gathered my things and headed for the door, sighing softly. It was time for fourth period—my least favorite time of the day. When this whole problem started, I thought that lunch time had been the worst; but it wasn’t. Fourth period was Biology, which meant that I would have to survive another period of Leah Truman and her evil friends.
       “Hey there,” a famili

Chapter 2. Adrian Carroll—Famous for Denting Cars in the Parking Lot and Also Keith Benson’s Head

ADRIAN:

        The first time I saw Audi in the cafeteria, I thought she was one of those bookworms—you know, the ones who sit in the library all day reading Hamlet. She certainly had the bookworm look. But, for some reason, something drew me to her. Maybe it was the look of chagrin on her face... or the fact that Leah—yes, most-popular-girl-in-school Leah—and her bimbo friends were surrounding her.
        You know what that means; when a

Chapter 17. There's No Turning Back

AUDI:
        Last night, I couldn't sleep. Adrian's strained smile and his words kept repeating themselves in my head. What was he going to say? Why did he look so… so sad? I didn't even know the reason for his expression, yet my chest ached whenever I thought about it.
        I was walking through the hall in a sort of sleepy daze, when a girl from Leah's posse bumped into me casually. She simply looked at me and said "sorry" with a sort of sneer, and simply went on. I bent down to pick up my books, when I noticed a h

I love your hair! It's so pretty! My hair is really ugly. It gets into knots too often. :(

Thank you! :) Hmm, maybe it needs some deep conditioning? Could be that your hair is dry, so it knots easily? I'm not an expert on hair, but that would be my guess.

Yes! But the thing is that after one day, it gets oily and so I'm not sure. Thanks for the advice though!
