Erica POV

Detention…

Why am I here? Oh yeah, I'm failing AP Chemistry. Why did I have to apply for this course when I was still a nerdy loser! I can't drop down! And popular people don't take AP courses!

"Erica," I heard Mrs. Frazer say. "You fail every pop quiz, you don't come to extra help sessions, and you hardly ever pass in your homework!" she said sternly.

Uh, yeah, because cool people don't do that!

"The only reason you are still in this class is because you earn A's and B's on tests. I know you have the potential to do well, but you aren't trying hard enough."

Ugh, as if chemistry is going to be useful later on…

"So," she continued. "Raise your grade to at least a B- or you are not allowed to go to prom."

WHAT!?

"You can't do that!" I screeched.

"As a matter of fact, it says in the handbook that a grade of C- or lower can make you ineligible for prom. You're a smart girl, Erica, I know you can do this. If you need help, here are some people who can tutor you, since you obviously don't want me to," she replied coldly as she handed me a list.

"Thank you," I said, pissed off as I left the room.

What a witch…

If it means I'll go to prom, I guess I can survive a couple hours with a nerd.

Takes one to know one, Dusker….

I shuddered, thinking about my awful freshman year. Secretly, I was still nerdy smart. I still read the Dusk Chronicles and I take three AP courses. But other than that, I was a hot vixenish vamp, and I'm never going back.

You may go back to that if you don't go to prom….

I took a look at the list.

Let's see:

Sarah Bussock: Don't know

Ken Gardner: He has that weird lisp, it's hard to understand him

Leonard Jenkins: Ewww, NO! He's such a creep!

Ashley Green: No way, she's a filthy bitch

I sighed. None of these people would help me!

Why, couldn't I do Environmental Science with Sarah? It's way more fun…

But then I noticed something. Another name was written on the sheet. So small I could barely read it.

Benny Weir
