Book one
Chapter one
I was
Doing
Good,
Before he
Came.
I
Had no
Problems.
My
Grades were
Good.
I
Hadn't done
Anything to
Hurt
Anyone.
Everyone
At school was
Cool with
Me.
I
Had one
Best
Friend.
Who
Lived for
Away.
But
I talked to
Her all the
My
Parents were
Happy with
Me.
Time.
What
More
Could I
Ask for?
Chapter two
There was
Nothing
Wrong with
Me.
My
Family was
Doing
Fine.
School
Was
Fine.
The only
Thing wrong
Was
I
Wanted
To
Be a
Little taller.
I
Was only four
Eight.
There
Was nothing
I
Wanted more but
That.
I
Thought
Being short
Was
Stupid,
Or wrong,
Or weird.
Chapter three
When
People started
Telling
Me, I'm to
Short.
I
Started to
Believe
Them.
What my
Family
Said didn't
Matter.
I got under
Their
Spell.
I can't stop
Listening.
So
I start
Thinking,
They're
Right.
I
Turned on
The TV and
Saw all
The tall
Famous
People.
I
Wanted to
Be more
Like them.
Then
I notice
Something
Wrong about
What they
Said.
So
I came to
The
Conclusion
Short
Is just a
Word.
It
Doesn't mean
Anything.
I started to
Like
Myself.
I
Realized pink
Was right
I'm fucken
Perfect.
Now I say
Fuck
Them, they
Don't know
Anything.
Chapter four
Then
He came along.
He
Was handsome,
With his short
Nice hair.
His
Cloth was the
Same as everyone
Else's.
His
Jeans were all
The way down
His
Ass.
He
Walked like
He had something
Up his ass.
But
He only wore
A plain white
Shirt.
That's what made
Him a little
Different from
The other boys
From
School.
His
Personality was
Okay.
But
I really
Didn't know
Him.
I
Had no idea
What he
Was capable
Of.
We
Started having
Lunch
Together.
He
Started to
Talk to me.
He
Was gorgeous.
So
I took the
Chance.
He
Would take me
To my classes.
At
Night he
Would call
Me and say
Good night
To me.
In
The morning
He would
Come and
Pick me
Up.
My parents
Were in
Love with
Him.
They
Said
He was a
Keeper.
But I still
Took the
Chance.
Chapter five
We
Were at
School and it
Was lunch
Time.
He
Was acting
Weird.
I
Couldn't put my
Finger on
It.
He
Was waiting
For me outside
Of my English
Class.
Then
He asked me
Out on a
Date.
On
Our first date
We had a
Lot of fun.
He
Took me to
See a
Movie.
Then
Afterwards
He took me
To dinner.
But
That was the
End of
The good
Times.
He
Started acting
Funny
After that.
He
Wouldn't pick me
Up from my
Classes.
He
Wouldn't call
And say good
Night.
Or
Take me to
School in
The
Mornings.
Everything
I did
Was
Wrong.
If
I was talking
To my best
Friend he
Would get
Mad at
Me.
Or i
Was going to
Slow.
He
Wanted to
Have sex all
The time he
Was with
Me.
But
I didn't give
In the first
Time
Or the others
Time he asked
Me.
So
I cried,
And
Cried some
More.
My
Mom was mad
At him but
She didn't know
Why we broke
Up.
There
Was nothing that
Kept my mind
Clear and
Focus.
The
Only thing that
I could do
Was listening to
My iPod.
So
I fell asleep
To my iPod
Because
That was the
Only way
I could
Deal with
It.
Chapter six
At
First he was
Not talking
To anyone.
Then
That
Ass hole was
Making
Out with
A blonde.
I
Was walking to
My locker and
I saw them.
His
Hands were on
Her small
Ass.
He
Got with her
Because she
Was captain
Of the
Cheerleader
Team.
That's
When i knew
He was a
Jerk.
I
Thought he
Was
Different.
He
Didn't make
Fun of
Me.
My
Shortness was
Not an
Issue.
Now
What?
The
Person I loved
Broke my
Heart.
Then
I went back
To
Crying.
I
Was sitting outside
In the rain
During class time,
I was crying
And he came
And sat next
To
Me.
That's
When
I met Sirius.
He
Was a handsome
Greaser.
He
Wore band shirts
Most of the
Time.
His
Shoes were black
Converse.
But
That didn't matter.
What
Caught my
Attention was
That he was
Shy around me.
He
Didn't know what
To say around
Me.
His
Smile was
Beautiful.
I
Couldn't help
Myself,
And laugh at
His jokes.
They
Were kind of
Funny.
When
He asked me
Out on our
First date, it
Was a Saturday
And I was
Cleaning my house.
The
Only person with
Me was my dad.
He
Knocked on the
Door and my
Dad answered.
Sirius
Got nervous and
Couldn't talk to
My dad.
Then
He finally asked
My dad if
He would let
Me go on
A date with
Me.
My
Dad talked to
Him while I
Was in my
Room, where he
Sent me.
He
Called me down
And said he
Was allowing me
To go on
A date with
Sirius.
The
Day of our
First date i
Was so nervous.
I
Didn't know what
To wear.
I tried on
A million
Dresses.
Then
I finally settled
On the fifth
Outfit I tried
On.
Our
Date went well.
He
Took me to
Eat dinner and
Then to my
House.
My
Dad was surprised
He took me
Home early.
My
Dad let Sirius
Stay and watch
Some sports with
Him.
After
That date with
Sirius I knew
That he was
The one.
We
Didn't have our
First kiss until
Our fifth
Date.
We
Were at the
Park on the
Swing sets and
We decided to
Jump off.
We
Landed right next
To each other
And he turned
Toward me and
Told me he
Loved me and
He kissed me.
And
Even then
He was
Nervous.
Afterward
He took me
Home and
Couldn't kiss me
Again.
He
Didn't want my
Parents to see
Us
Kiss.
My
Dad kind of
Knew what
Happened because
Sirius was acting
Guilty.
My
Dad took aside
For a while.
My
Dad and Sirius
Came back
A little
Better.
When
Sirius was gone
My dad started
Making fun of
Us.
My
Mom was okay
With Sirius but
She thought there
Was something wrong?
With Sirius.
Chapter seven
He
Was a better
Man than the
Other guy.
Sirius
Made me forget
About him.
Once
He found out
He went crazy.
He
Wanted what
Sirius had,
Me.
Sirius
And I were
Walking around
The school and
He came up
To us.
I
Didn't pay attention
To him because
I was thinking
About what
Sirius just
Told me.
He
Started talking
To us and
I was confused.
Then
Someone told
Me that he
Was jealous
About Sirius
And me.
But
It was too
Late to
Have me
Back.
He
Hurt me and
I didn't care
About him
Anymore.
He
Was not my
Problem.
The
Only person I
Cared about
Was
Sirius.
On the day
Sirius
Got hurt I
Was on my
Way to his
House for a
Barbeque.
I
There and saw
Sirius on the floor
And in the
Distance I saw
Him
Running.
I
Didn't care about
Him at that
Instance and
I just called
The
Hospital.
That
Made me mad.
When
I knew that
Sirius was better
I started thinking
About him and
What I was
Going to do
To him.
On
Birthday the
Week after he
Hurt Sirius I
Took action.
I
Beat him up
Really hard.
I
Hurt him a
Lot.
He deserved it.
He made the
Only person i
Cared about go
To the
Hospital.
So
I made him
End up there.
Of
Course mine
Was an
Accident.
At
Least that's
What we
Both
Said.
Until
He
Told.
Sirius
Found
Out.
He
Wasn't mad
At me.
When
It was my
Court hearings
He was there.
And
When my verdict
Was read
He was also
There.
He
Took me home
When they let
Me out.
And
He let me
Stay with him.
Chapter eight
I
Didn't have to
Change to
Be with
Sirius.
We
Were just two
Humans who dressed
Differently.
And
That didn't
Matter.
When
I went back
To school he
Helped me
Study.
And
I helped him.
We
Spent a lot
Of time
Together.
But
We never
Went far.
Until
One day when
We were ready
We
Got caught, by
His family
But
They
Didn't care.
They
Made fun of
Us.
But
It didn't
Matter.
That
Day i
Met his
Daughter,
Isabelle.
It
Was the
Best day
Ever.
Until
He came back.
Chapter nine
Before
He came back
To my perfect
Life.
It
Started off with
Him talking to
My mom.
He
Put these ideas
In her head
Of
Sirius.
He
Told her he
Was forcing me
To do drugs.
And
That Sirius made
Me work to
Pay for his
Bills.
She
Came for me
When we were
Eating dinner.
She
Took me by
My hair and
Started pulling
Me toward the
Door.
And
I fought.
Sirius
Let me go.
He
Said it was
For the
Best.
But
It was not.
I
See him
Every fucken
Day at
School.
It
Hurts but i
Deal with
It and he
Deals with
It.
Chapter ten
The
One day Sirius
And I had
Sex I got
Pregnant.
I
Didn't tell
Him.
I
Thought it was
For the
Best.
He
Already had
A lot to
Deal with.
But
I
Didn't plan on
Him finding out
By himself.
That
Day came and
I lied to
Him.
Told
Him it was
Someone's
Else's
Baby.
He
Didn't buy it.
So
I told him
The truth.
Then
He told me
That he
Wanted to
Help.
But
I said no.
He
Let me go.
I
Was done
With this
Kind of
Crap.
He
Got mad and
Hit the
Locker.
What
Was I
Supposed
To do?
He
Let me go,
When I
Needed him
The most.
That
Didn't stop
Him.
That
Night I was
At the park
And He.
He
Told me he
Was sorry, and
He hasn't
Stopped thinking
About me.
I
Called him a
Liar.
Then
I started
Crying.
Sirius
Made it all
Better.
He always knew
How to make
Me laugh.
He
Took me home
And helped me
Pack my stuff.
Then
He took me
To his
House.
Chapter eleven
Nine
Months later i
Had a baby
Girl.
We
Named her
Sophia.
Isabelle
Loves her a
Lot.
She
Plays with her.
She
Even says her
Name.
I
Got back with
Sirius.
And
His family is
Cool with
Us.
They
Even like the
Fact I took
Him away from
Isabelle's
Mom.
Apparently
When we weren't
Together she started
Talking to him
Again.
But
He told her
He was threw
With her.
Everything
Is
Perfect now.
Chapter twelve
He
Came back and
I didn't know
What to
Say.
He
Said something
And I
Remembered why I
Hate him.
He
Saw my
Daughter and Isabelle
And it felt
Weird.
So
I left and
Took them.
He
Followed me
And I didn't
Know what
To
Do.
One
Of Sirius's friends was
At a store.
So I
Decided to
Stay with
Him.
It
Was a good
Thing Isabelle
Was helping
Me.
His
Friend saw
Him and
Called Sirius's
Brother to
Come and
Pick me
Up.
Sirius
Was at work
So he couldn't
Answer his
Phone.
His
Friend and
Brother took care off
Him.
Sirius
Came home
And found
Out.
He
Got mad and
Wanted to
Hurt
Him.
I
Stopped him
And told him
His brother
Took care of
It.
It
Made him a
Little
Happier.
Enough
To go to
Sleep.
Chapter thirteen
Sirius
And I have
Been married
For five
Years.
And
He hasn't
Come back.
That
Made me
Feel
Good.
Comes
Out he
Died two
Years ago.
His
Widow told me
They didn't tell
Her
Why.
I
Felt bad for
Her.
But
Happy at the
Same time.
I
Never got to
Thank him for
Hooking me up
With
Sirius.
If
It wasn't for
Him I wouldn't
Have talked to
Sirius.
Because
Well when I
Met Sirius I
Was crying
Sirius
Saw me and
Calmed me
Down.
He
Might have
Done some
Horrible
Things on
The way but
I still got
Sirius.
And
Of course
Sophia and
Isabelle.
The end
Book two
Sam
Chapter one
I
Wasn't happy
I lived where
It wasn't
Right to
Think.
My
Dad was at
Jail for doing
Nothing.
My
Mom is always
At work.
My
Aunt takes care
Of me.
I
Thought it was
Fine until she
Started telling me
What to
Do.
I
Had no idea
What she was
Talking about
Until i
Thought about
It.
She
Was putting
Ideas into my
Head.
It
Wasn't me.
Chapter two
My
Mom found out
And talked
To my
Aunt.
That
Didn't stop
Her.
So
I just nodded
My
Head.
What
Was I
Supposed to
Do?
Write
It all
Down.
Not
Directly of
Course.
Some
Guy noticed
Me and asked
Me what i
Was
Doing.
I
Didn't realize who
It was until
I turned to
See.
It
Was the guy
All the girls
We're talking
About.
He
Was the captain
Of the football
Team.
We
Started hanging
Out.
Then
We went on
Our first
Date.
Chapter three
My
Mom was
Happy.
My
Dad wanted to
Meet
Him.
My
Aunt was mad
I had a
Date.
She
Said only people
Who were boyfriend
And girlfriend
Were allowed to
Date.
She
Slapped
Me.
So
I told him
I couldn't see
Him
Anymore.
He
Went to my
House and talked
To my aunt
And mom.
Then
All of a
Sudden my aunt
Kicked him
Out.
My
Mom was mad
At
Her.
She
Let me go
And get him
Back.
That
Night we
Kissed.
Chapter four
My
Dad got out
Of jail and
And my aunt
Left our
House.
Since
He got out
Of jail no
One would give
Him a job
So he was
Busy finding a
Job.
He
Got a job
As a gardener.
While
He was working
He met
Sam.
He
Was laughing when
He came
Home.
That
Night we had
A good
Dinner.
Chapter five
Sam
And I talked
To his parents
About letting him
The Spanish
Club.
It
Was supposed because
It's good for
His college
Application.
They
Kicked me out
Because I was
Mexican.
Comes
Out his parents
Were
Racist.
No
Wonder Sam didn't
Want to talk
To
Them.
They
Were the ones
Who wanted us
Out.
Posters
Were all around
Me telling me
To just let
It go.
But
I couldn't.
Sam
Helped me get
Back at them.
His
Parents were
My aunt to
Him.
Telling
Him what to
Think about
People with different
Skin color.
We
Marched and
Marched.
His
Parents where
There.
Weeks
Passed by and
His parents
Finally realized
They were
Wrong.
My
Dad talked to
Them.
He
Told them his
Story.
His
Parents were buying
Me school
Supplies.
Chapter six
Someone
Was shot at
School because
He was
Black.
The
Police arrested the
Guy who shot
Him.
I
Was so mad
I couldn't think
Straight.
Sam's
Parents called the
School and warned
Them to fix
The students
Mind.
The
School made a
Special class for
Them.
They
Watched movies and
Read books that
Can change their
Mind.
It
Worked on
Some.
Others
Had their parents
Called the school
And stopped the
Program.
Their
Kids started to
Protest.
So
I decided to
Do the same
Expect not so
Violent.
Gandhi
Inspired me to
Do the same
Thing he
Did.
Sam
Did it with
Me.
Chapter seven
The
Protests were
Stopped.
Sam
Was killed by
A white student
From another
School.
That
Was the second
Worst day of
My life.
Everyone
At school was
Different.
No
One was singing
Or making fun
Of each
Other.
They
Kept telling me
How sorry they
Were.
But
They didn't know
How I
Felt.
Only
His parents did.
Everyone
At school doesn't
Know why he
Was killed.
I
Do his, and
His parents do
To.
That
Person wanted
It be like
It was back
Then.
What
Could I do
For Sam?
This
Only proved my
Point.
A
Letter came for
Me and gave
Me hope.
