Becca's POV

My name is Beccalene Butterscotch, I'm a glitch, I live alone in Diet Cola -best friend, Venellope von Schweetz, used to live with me, but she left after the game was reset and she became president. I run every day to stay in shape and because it helps me keep my mind off of things.

I love running, although it always brings sour memories. Tears form in my eyes as i jog past the place I met Venellope. I wipe my eyes and try to forget about our long-lost friendship. Submerged in my thoughts, I run into someone and we both fall to the ground.

"Hey! Watch where you're going!" The boy says as he gets up and dust his pants off.

"Sorry," I reply softly and sit up, staring at my lap, a deep blush in my cheeks.

"Who are you?!"

"Beccalene Butterscotch, and who are you?"

"Gloyd Orangeboar, how come I've never seen you before?" He sticks out his hand and helps me up.

"Well... um... I'm a uh hmfajhytf.." I mumble.

"What?"

"I said I'm a glyjdsbfid"

"Stop mumbling!"

"Fine," I sigh. " You've never seen me before because I'm a glitch."

"Oh," He whispers and slowly backs away. I turn around, not wanting him to see me cry because he's really cute. I run towards my home, hearing his kart's engine rev and the sound of it driving away... or at least that's what I think.
