I really need to get a boyfriend!. However, I with my bug-eyed glasses, and oily skin could not get a boyfriend even if I got contacts, and scrubbed my face with clean & clear everyday!. I still wouldn’t get a boyfriend!. It made me so mad! I was sitting on the hood of my car drinking the last of my diet coke, when a nice clean ford pickup track drove up next to my dirty mustang!. The driver side door opened and out came the cutes guy, I have ever seen in my entire life!. He was clean cut, his hair was brown, his eyes were a nice shade of blue, and he had the nicest mouth I had ever seen on a boy!. I cleared my throat and he turned and looked at me!. Then I saw it!. It was Scott Johnson, school jock…or I should say school jerk!.
“Well looky what we got here boys!” He shouted!. A window in the back of the track slid down and out came Jeff Rink‘s head!.
“Nerd-girl…! How’s it going,” He sounded surprised at first but after a second got over it!. “Still wearing those bug-eyed glasses I see!.” He laughed at his joke, and everyone but me joined in!. I slid off the hood and when I touched the ground, Scott came up besides me!.
“What’s wrong!? Are you still mad that I turned you down!?” He asked laughing!. I jabbed him in the side!. He almost lost his balance, his expression changed after that!. His face was a deep crimson, and he was glaring at me through narrowed eyes!.
“Don’t touch me, freak!” He shouted and opened his door and jumped in!. Jeff threw up his hands and said, “Hey what about the drinks, man!” Scott looked back at him and told him to shut up!. I opened the door of my car and before they could drive away, I gave them all the finger!. I then got in my car, backed out of the convention store parking lot, and started home!. Driving downtown was as if trying to get threw a herd of cattle on a bad day!. There were people everyway you turned!. You couldn’t go two feet without almost hitting somebody!. I gave up trying to get through, so I stopped at Mocha Le book!. I walked into and the smell of coffee’s beans hit me full force!. I went to my usual seat and Mark, Jeff’s brother, came over and took my order!.
“Hey Mattie, what will it be!?” He asked with a smile!.
“Chocolate latte and a bear claw, please!.” I let myself relax, and breathed in the sweet aroma of coffee!. “You got it!.” He scribbled it down on his pad and walked to the counter and began to make my much needed caffeine fixes!. I sat there finding myself thinking about what Jeff said!. Was I that ugly that people found joy in making fun of me!? I never thought I was let I was that bad looking!. But I guess if Jeff and Scott said I was…then I guess I am!. Mark walked over and placed my latte on the table along with my bear claw!.
“That’s $6!.08 Mattie!.” I pulled out my wallet and gave him the money!. He did not leave when I gave him the money he just stared at me!. I looked up at him, and just blurted, “Am I ugly!?” Mark breathe in a slow breath and asked, “Bad Day!?” I nodded my head!. He sat down in the chair across from me and sighed!. He combed his fingers in his blonde hair!. “Okay what happened!?” I then told him my little encounter with his brother and Scott Johnson!. He let out an irritated sigh!. “Ahhhh, I hate that Scott kid, his so full of himself it’s not even funny!” He said and torn a piece of my bear claw off and tossed it into his mouth!.
“Hey,” I said annoyed!. “Hands off my bear claw!” I put a hand wall around my bear claw so he couldn‘t get at it!. He let out a short laughed and got up!. “I got to get back to work or Rose’s going chew my *** out for taking an early break!.” I nodded!. “Ha, ha yeah you better get back!.” He walked few steps away and then turned back towards me!.
“Your not ugly, Mattie,” He said as if he really cared!. “You may have bad skin, and your glasses are huge!. But you’re most defiantly not ugly!. Don’t listen to anyone that says other wise, you got me!?” He asked!. I nodded and he smiled!. “Good!. See ya later!.” He then went back to collecting orders!. I took a sip of my latte, and realized that it was still hot!. It burned its way down to my stomach, were it warmed my insides!. I torn a piece of the bear claw off and popped it into my mouth!. I drank my latte, and finished my bear claw and began to daydream!. I was a normal teenage girl!. No bug-eyed glasses, no oily skin in sight!. I felt myself smile, and when Mark came back over and asked me how everything was!. But I didn‘t response!. I was to busy with my daydream!.
“Mattie!.” He said my name in his gentle voice, much nicer then his brothers!. Mattie!” He shouted sounding as if he was worried!. I jumped a little, “What!?” I asked!. He sighed and asked again how everything was!.
“Oh it was good thanks!.” I felt my cell phone vibrate, I took it out and saw that my best friend, Jackie was texting me!. I opened my phone!. “Where r u!?” I clicked the “reply” button and excused myself to Mark!. “I’m at MLeB!. Y!?” I pushed the “send” button, closed my phone, and sat it on the table!.
“What did Jackie want!?” Mark asked right after I close my phone!. “Huh!? Oh I do not know, she just wanted to know were I was!. She’s been acting really weird lately…do you know what’s wrong with her!?” I asked!. He shook his head and said, “Jackie hasn’t been in here for awhile…last time I saw her…it’s been about a week I think!.” Now that was strange!. Jackie loved this place as much as I did, and I do not understand why she hasn’t been in here for so long!. I’d have to ask the next time I see her!. Which was really quite, because she came running threw the door of Mocha Le Book, and scanning the room!. When she saw me, she ran as if her life depended on it!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

as i have said before, fantastic!! i can NOT wait for more!Www@QuestionHome@Com

wow!. i thought that was really good!. in the beginning i foud that you repeated yourself a couple times!. "I really need to get a boyfriend!. However, I with my bug-eyed glasses, and oily skin could not get a boyfriend even if I got contacts, and scrubbed my face with clean & clear everyday!. I still wouldn’t get a boyfriend"!. you dont need to put in the last "i still wouldnt get a boyfriend"!.
In this sentence: "I cleared my throat and he turned and looked at me!. Then I saw it!. It was Scott Johnson"!. you dont have to put "then i saw it"!. you could put instead "then i let out a gasp when i saw who it was!." or you could take that little sentence out!. but other then that it was really good!. you just have to make sure that you press the enter key everytime a new person starts to talk!. but good job!Www@QuestionHome@Com

i like it, it grabed my atention very quickly and i wanted to keep reading it!. you definatly have talent and hope you go really far!. you could probly publish it if u keep it up!. but i definately like the idea!.
**********************************good luck!**********************************Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think its good so far im hoping to read more of it too!.
Goodluck with the rest:)Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not bad!. Not really the kind of story I would normally read, but I got more interested in it as went went along!. also I think it would be better if you kind of had the main character introduce herself and it seems like you need a better first paragraph, than just saying out of nowhere, "I really need to get a boyfriend" Bad beginning in the first two paragraphs!.!.

Wouldn't mind reading a little bit more of it though!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
