Hi, I'm Sally, and I figured out two things very early in life.

One, my older sister Rachel is dumb.

And two, she really hates me.

Rachel is a year older than me, but it didn't take me too long to catch up with her.

I was talking before she did, and I learned how to read while she was still struggling with the alphabet.

My parents loved showing me off, and I think it really bothered Rachel.

Sweetie, why don't you recite the poems you learned for our guests?

Sally, tell your aunt the cool thing that you read in your encyclopedia yesterday.

Just then, Rachel came running wearing her bathing suit over her clothes.

Look at me!

I look like a mermaid in my baby suit!

Your what?

My baby suit!

Mom, baby suit, this?

Ugh, you don't understand anything I say!

Oh, just help me take it off!

It's stuck in my limbo!

I think she's saying her bathing suit is stuck in her elbow, Mom.

Oh, I see.

Sally, you're so bright.

Silly Rachel.

Did I mention that I sometimes taught Rachel the wrong words because it was funny when she sounded stupid?

Yeah, I'm not very proud of that now.

But that's not the only reason she hated me.

I was the only one in my family with red hair, and my parents loved it.

Especially mom, who would do all sorts of hairstyles.

Sally, your hair looks so magical.

Let's try braids today.

You know why it looks magical?

Because she's a leopard clown.

You mean a leprechaun?

she told me all the time that my parents pretended to like my red hair so I wouldn't feel bad.

When you were born, mom and dad cried tears of ugliness for days.

They even tried to give you up for adoption, but no one wanted you.

And one time, she even tried to chop my hair off.

And things got worse when in eighth grade, she failed a class and ended up being with me.

As if our parents weren't enough, our history teacher, Miss Sheldon, loved comparing her to me in front of everyone.

Your assignment is just appalling, Rachel.

Did you see your sisters?

Magnifique!

Why can't you be more like her?

Didn't you do any research?

What's there to research?

Someone ugly said something dumb to someone boring a long time ago.

And then some lame war broke out.

Who cares about this stuff?

A person who wants to have an educated mind?

Who cares what's on the inside when the package is this pretty?

Looks are not important.

Huh, that's ugly people talk.

Did your boyfriend ever say that?

Oh wait, I bet you've never had one.

Detention now.

The next day before history class, I saw Rachel putting a mug of coffee on Miss Sheldon's table while everyone else was snickering.

I was instantly suspicious.

Rachel, what are you up to?

What?

I'm just trying to make up for my behavior yesterday.

What did you put in there?

Oh, I don't know.

Maybe some spit, maybe some laxative, maybe both.

Who can say?

Just then, Miss Sheldon walked in and Rachel handed her the mug sweetly with an apology, but I tried taking it away from her.

I really don't think you should have that.

Why?

I, uh, I just don't think it's a good idea.

Why?

Is there something in the coffee, Sally?

Tell me now.

No, I just don't think you need to drink coffee.

Um, it gives you really bad breath.

Give that to me, please.

I ended up spilling the whole thing on her white coat.

Oh my god, you dumb butt kisser, you ruined my whole plan.

The next thing I I knew I was in detention too, with Rachel, for the very first time in my life.

But suddenly, Rachel was frickin' popular.

No one liked Miss Sheldon much, and everyone thought Rachel was super cool for trying to mess with her.

And now, she was used to her newfound power to turn everyone against me.

She was the beautiful, fun blonde, and I was the red-haired, nerdy sister being called things like Carrot Top and Ketchup Head.

Boy could girls be mean.

Eventually, the teasing got old.

I just learned to ignore it.

But soon, I was given an assignment in history class to do a presentation on Scotland.

The more I studied, the happier I felt.

There were so many cool, red-headed Scots, and I definitely felt better about my hair.

Before class, I went to the bathroom to change into a kilt I had spent hours making myself just for the presentation.

But just then, my sister walked in.

She pulled out her phone and started taking pictures.

Going back home, leprechaun?

Buzz off, Rachel.

You look so stupid.

What is that?

A schoolgirl skirt?

It's a kilt.

Get out of my way.

You can't leave yet.

Leprechauns can't travel without a rainbow.

With that, she pulled out some paints from her backpack and squirted them all over my outfit.

I ran out of the bathroom crying angry tears.

100

Rachel did get detention, but it was her millionth time and she didn't give a hoot.

101

The next year, I got a fresh start.

102

Our dad had gotten a new job across the state, which meant I was going to be going to a new high school.

103

I was determined to end the teasing that my red hair gave me.

104

Hey, Mom, now that I'm 16, I think I should get to make some choices about my hair.

105

I'd like to change the color, but your hair is beautiful, sweetie.

106

I know you like it, Mom, but I just want to try something a little more mature, you know?

107

I guess, if that's what you want.

108

You're growing up so fast.

109

Thanks, Mom.

110

I ran straight to the store and bought a box of black hair dye.

111

And it worked.

112

My hair was dark and silky.

113

No more red.

114

Do you think that'll fool anyone?

115

You can't cover up what you are, little leprechaun.

116

Whatever, Rachel.

117

Don't you have something stupid to do?

118

Go away.

119

Just saying.

120

The truth always comes out.

121

The first day of school was like a dream come true.

122

No one said anything about my hair.

123

I blended right in and even got a few compliments on my cute outfit, which I'd added some accessories to myself.

124

Rachel was right back in with the cheerleaders.

125

But this was the first time she and I were in a co-ed school.

126

And being around boys was making her even dumber.

127

The football captain and I went out last night, but he never called or texted me back.

128

I don't get it.

129

I think he was even hiding from me in school.

130

Okay, how did the date go?

131

It was amazing, like we were meant to be.

132

There was just one awkward moment when this weird girl came to our table and started flirting with him.

133

And I bit her hand really hard.

134

I'm sure she got the message that he's not interested in her.

135

He was just too nice to say it.

136

You scared him off, you psycho!

137

How about you don't act like a jealous, blood-sucking vampire next time?

138

But she continued her serial dating and getting heartbroken, and I was getting sick of her stories.

139

It's not like she took my advice.

140

Other than that, school was going great.

141

I was doing well in my classes and had even joined the drama club as a costume designer.

142

A play was being held soon, but the main actor fell ill right before the performance.

143

I had to make sure his understudy fit in the costume, but I didn't even recognize him.

144

I ran frantically through the dressing room shouting, Hey, is there anyone named Skylar here?

145

Uh, yeah, that's me.

146

Okay, I need you to take off your clothes right now.

147

He grinned and I blushed as people around us started laughing.

148

I mean, I didn't...

149

Okay, wait, let me start over.

150

You need to try this on right now and I have to make sure this fits you.

151

I'm the costume person, not a pervert.

152

I know.

153

I've seen you around.

154

Sally, right?

155

I'll just change into this and be right back.

156

This Skyler was freaking cute.

157

And he knew my name?

158

His shirt was missing a button, and my heart was skipping beats as I stitched it on.

159

There, you're all set.

160

Thanks, Sally.

161

Wish me luck.

162

Break your legs.

163

I mean, a leg.

164

Only one.

165

Single.

166

Just a figure of speech anyway.

167

Gosh, I sounded dumber than Rachel.

168

So I was quite surprised when Skyler came and sat next to me at recess the next day.

169

He was funny and sweet, and I was having a great time talking to him.

170

By the way, I'm part of the student council, and currently, we're deciding on a theme for the homecoming dance.

171

Any ideas?

172

I can never think of anything other than sports themes.

173

If you like sports, maybe you could do the Scottish Highland Games.

174

Wow, I love Scottish stuff.

175

This is a really good idea.

176

Thanks, Sally.

177

Just then, Rachel dropped her butt right next to him.

178

Mind if I join your table?

179

I'm Rachel, Sally's sister.

180

Don't mind at all.

181

Also, I couldn't help overhearing your conversation.

182

Homecoming is all about the football games.

183

We should totally do a varsity theme.

184

I'll wear my cheerleading outfit.

185

It'll be so cool.

186

I was fuming.

187

I couldn't believe she was butting herself into this too.

188

Didn't she have enough guys to date?

189

She just couldn't let me be happy.

190

I spent the rest of lunch just sitting there and listening to them talk about school sports.

191

A couple of weeks passed, and neither Skylar nor Rachel talked to me.

192

But I was busy with my studies and my friends, and I was happy for a change.

193

I wasn't gonna be bothered by some guy I barely knew.

194

But then one day, Skylar stopped me in the hall on the way to class.

195

Hey, Sally, wait up.

196

Sorry, I haven't been around much.

197

I've been super busy getting everything ready for homecoming week.

198

Oh, yeah, it's whatever.

199

I've been really busy too.

200

Well, I hope you're not too busy to maybe go to the dance with me.

201

I mean, if you aren't going with anyone else.

202

The dance?

203

With you?

204

I'd love to.

205

Great, I'll meet you there.

206

I couldn't believe it.

207

No teasing, new friends, and even a date to homecoming?

208

I was practically skipping everywhere the rest of the day.

209

Until I got home.

210

Word around school is that Skylar asked you to homecoming.

211

Yeah, and, well, I'm here to tell you that he isn't going with you.

212

He is going with me.

213

Says who?

214

Says this.

215

She held up her phone and showed me the picture she had taken of me in a kilt with my bright red hair.

216

Hey, get rid of that.

217

Tell him you can't go with him, or I show this picture to the entire school.

218

No, don't you dare.

219

It's up to you.

220

Fine.

221

I didn't want to go to that stupid dance anyway.

222

The next day at school, I told Skylar I wasn't going to go to the dance with him.

223

He tried to change my mind, but there was no way I was going to let him see that picture of me.

224

He looked a bit hurt, and I felt awful, but I didn't have a choice.

225

The night of the dance, I tried to stay home, but the thought of Rachel laughing and having fun with Skylar made me feel like I might explode.

226

I quickly got ready, then sped my car to the dance.

227

I burst through the doors and saw Rachel dancing, surrounded by her friends.

228

But I didn't see Skylar anywhere.

229

Just then, there was a hand on my shoulder.

230

Sally, I thought you couldn't make it.

231

Yeah, me too.

232

Because I was scared.

233

Scared of what?

234

Of you finding out the truth.

235

Rachel was beside us with her phone in her hand.

236

Within a few seconds, everyone's phones were going off, including Skylar's.

237

He pulled it out of his pocket and opened a message.

238

And there was that picture of me.

239

She had sent it to everyone.

240

Wait, is that you, Sally?

241

You know what?

242

Yeah, that is me.

243

I dyed my hair black, but it's actually red as a tomato.

244

And if you hate it, then you're all just shallow, stupid.

245

Hate it?

246

I love it.

247

What?

248

What?

249

Sally, you're cool the way you are.

250

So are you.

251

May I have this dance?

252

You may.

253

Just give me one second, though.

254

Listen, you bimbo.

255

I kept putting up with you and making excuses for your behavior.

256

But I've had enough.

257

You tried your best to humiliate me, but it was an epic failure.

258

So, in your face!

259

Now please, get a life and act less desperate, and I'm sure you'll be able to land a boyfriend with the same IQ as you.

260

Just leave me alone, okay?

261

That weekend, I took the dye out of my hair, and Rachel dyed hers red.

262

But it wasn't real, not like mine.

263

I was beautifully red-headed and very happy to be me.
