All Chapters of The Nerdy Actress: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Grayson had just turned off the lights, about to sleep when a chocking smell drifted past his nose. He recognized it at once. Smoke? What is burning? He thought looking out of the window where the unfriendly smell was coming from. His neighbor's house. As he strolled over so did the smell become thicker and thicker. Something is wrong. He acted quick, one hand gripping on the window frame, he jumped over so he was standing on the small brick extension below the window. His back pressed to the wall. Securing his footing, he slowly crept over to his neighbor's balcony and with one hand hoisted himself up with a trail of sweat rolling down the side of his face at the heat. As he walked through the balcony door, Grayson could hear the sound of fire crackling fiercely, as well as a series of harsh cough. The fire hadn't spread much, but it was still much of an hassle to breath. So he had one hand covering his nose as he looked around for a way to put out the fire. He looked back

Skylar jumped up in surprise, almost falling over. Her heart beating wildly in her chest. She looked over her shoulder to meet a familiar pair of green eyes. It's him. Thinking about it, she realized he really did look similar to the guy from earlier in the morning. No. Not look alike. It must certainly be him. Skykar crossed. But looking more closely, and with the help of the day light she realized his hair wasn't actually black. But a dark shade of coffee brown. Falling below the nape of his neck. He stood up, elegantly dusting the dirt off his pants, both hands inserted in his pockets as he lean back slightly giving off a cool demeanor. Skykar backed up slightly. Thoroughly intimidated by his stare. Why is he following me everywhere? At the same time, he asked, walking over. "Why are you everywhere?" I don't know. Skykar blanked. "This is the third time already." He crossed his arm over his chest, looking right down at her. "The very third time." ★★★★★★★ "I should cal

Skylar woke up the next day feeling a bit more alive. She was starting to feel a rise in her positive energy. So she decided. She wouldn't think of anything or nothing. For today she would go out, have fun, and forget about everything else. With this in mind, she threw open the window. Blasted her speakers on as she played 'move like Jagaar.' down stairs and danced/dressed up for school. By the time she was done it was already some minutes past eight. I am late!! Skykar gave up her thoughts on breakfast, grabbed her bag and raced down the road to catch the bus. The day went even better than she expected. It wasn't as bad as the other day. At the end of her second class, Skykar felt much better. She was able to keep off the gossips by wearing an ear plug. Although it wasn't much help since she knew they must be talking about her. She already made a decision. She only had to hold on to the end of the semester. Then she'd transfer to another school. The moment the professor

Why the three of them? "Where have you been?" 'you still have the guts to ask?' "Skylar?" Grayson voice had her throwing a glance back. Her drumming heart slowly calming down. The short blond smiled fully, as she further said. "I haven't seen you ever since. I was thinking of paying you a visit." 'as if you even care if I am alive or dead.' Skylar scowled in her head, still she made no attempt to reply. "You got Irene so worried. It was literally torture." Miranda added after Bianca. Skylar glanced at the said Irene who was staring blankly. With no look of remorse on her face. Do these two clowns think I am blind? Do they think she can't see those mocking smile in-between each of their words. "I have been busy." She forced between gritted teeth. "Class has been really hectic." "Really?" Bianca snorted, still managing to keep up her smile. "Then how about we find some time to hang out together?" Skylar wanted to scream out a 'no', but at the end she still gave a pathetic

"Who did this?" Marcus narrowed his eyes coldly. Skylar's back ran cold and only after he asked for a second time did she regain herself. "No—body. I don't know." She shook her head with a downcast look. "We should report this to the school authority." He said. Goosebumps all over his arms due to anger. "No..." Skylar shook her head quickly. "I don't want to." The last thing she wanted was to implicate Irene. Bullying could lead to suspension. Or worst. Expulsion from the school. Marcus stared at her silently and Skylar had a hard time forcing the words out of her mouth. "Please don't tell anybody about this, Marcus. Please....." With a hesitant look, Marcus nodded. If it was Oliver or Regina it would have been impossible for them to keep shut. But Marcus was a sort of person who knew how to stay out of other people's business. That's until the situation touches his bottom line. "Okay." Then walked past her, causing Skylar to clench her wrist. After seeing how pathetic she
