Lucy Carson is a rich girl, keeps it hidden because she can’t stand fake friends. At the beginning of 6th grade a group of guys, Landon, Tanner and Grayson torment Lucy everyday. They hurt her repeatedly every school year, summer was the only break she got from being beat up and teased. If only they knew her life, they’d want to be her friend instead of hurting her every chance they got. They were truly assholes, they didn’t care about anyone unless they had money. Lucy would have more friends, but she didn’t want people to only like her because she had money, that was horrible. She has this incredible next door neighbor Trevor, who secretly loves her, he doesn’t tell her because of all the bullying. He feels she’ll isolate herself more if she knew. Little does he know Lucy likes him back. Her best friends Savannah and Chelsea try their best to help her through the school year, not knowing she has begun to hurt herself over the bullying.

Landon was gently waking me up, I slowly woke up, sitting up, the clock read 6am, my mom had texted while I was asleep last night, so we could bake, then cook the turkey, and eat at a reasonable time, I get ready, pulling on nice jeans, a nice shirt, putting my ultrasound picture in my purse with my phone, I put my sneakers on, looking at Landon, who was almost ready. 


He smiled at me, “Morning baby, and our little one,” he says as he puts his sneakers on. 


I smile back, “Good Morning, from us both.” 


He walks over to me, pulling me to my feet, placing a hand on my stomach, 


“I love you both,” he smiles, kissing me with his hand still on my stomach, I place a hand on top of his. 


I kiss back, smiling, “We love you too.” 


We leave, heading to my house, I spot Trevor in his window, Macy by his side, her arm around his waist. I roll my eyes looking away, smiling at Landon looking at me as we walked by, 


“Babe, you are so strong you know that right?” He says.
