1 I'm sorry, what?!

Nothing and I mean nothing could prepare me for what was going to happen.

I was surrounded by dark smug looks some silently mocking me while others laughed obnoxiously.

"How embarrassing" They'd laugh while I stood there trembling as I fought back the tears.

"Poor thing did you think that you had a chance, this ain't high school homeless girl" she spat with venom.

I could feel my insecurity and self-esteem cower as I became aware of my choice of attire.

A baggy shirt with a pair of blue jeans and sneakers that looked as if they'd seen enough to last them a lifetime.

I stood there as she called me names meanwhile her boyfriend; the guy I liked who happened to be the first to ever talk to me since I started studying on campus, just sat and watched he didn't even try to come to my defense.

I wasn't exactly the prettiest girl in the world, I didn't have that model figure or that perfect skin and pretty eyes. I had plain brown eyes and freckles on my cheeks and nose, my brown hair was always up in a messy bun and not the cute kind of messy, it was the kind birds would make a nest out of.

I have poor eyesight so I wear glasses to see, they are a bit bigger nearly covering my face. I'm the very definition of a nerdy loser girl.

His girlfriend was getting more angry and aggressive, soon she pushed me and I ended up on the ground.

"Dirt like you should stay where you belong,"

She took the love letter I had poured my everything into and shredded it in front of me.

I watched it as it falls like snowflakes, she reached over and grabbed me by my face and I winced "If I so much as see you in the same area as him-" she leaned into my ear "I'll crush you,"

Her words sent a cold shiver up my spine, I couldn't hold back my tears any longer and they started falling out. Satisfied, she let me go and clicked her tongue before linking arms with her boyfriend and walked off.

The entire group followed them, throwing me dirty looks and insults as they walked past.

I'm such an idiot.

Why didn't I see that he was just playing with me, he was only using me to get to his girlfriend. I'm an idiot.

I slowly got up from the ground, not bothering to dust myself off, she was right, I am dirt. Dirt that gets trampled over without care, no one finds dirt pretty just plain and boring only there to be used and left alone.

I started heading to my dorm across the street, even though it was in the afternoon and there were still classes. I just don't have it in me to continue with my day.

He was way out of my league, to begin with, but I was just hoping and praying that maybe just maybe it could work out like in those novels I've read.

Idiot.

Dumb dirt.

I should accept being alone for the rest...

Honk! Honk!

The car came out of nowhere and time seemed to slow down as I watched it race towards me. My life flashed before my eyes and I couldn't help but laugh, it was truly a life meant for Dirt.

Ordinary parents who never bothered to look after me left someone else to do that. I was a complete outcast in this world, didn't have any friends or siblings to talk to, I truly was all alone.

I closed my eyes and went for the darkness to overcome me.

I waited for the pain of my bones to break as the car crashes into me and sends me flying across the road.

I waited and waited.

Why is it taking so long?

"Miss?"

Did I get hit, am I unable to feel anything?

That's not right, I feel the warm sun on my skin. Wait, sun?

It's the beginning of autumn there shouldn't be any sun.

"Miss please wake up,"

My eyes shot open and met with a pair of grey pretty ones, I stared at their eyes and just blinked.

"Wonderful you're awake, come you must get ready, we've made your bath," "Bath?" She nodded and walked towards a large floor bath in the middle of the room where three ladies stood in line.

They all wore the same outfit, golden bands around their upper arm, a golden brown bra, and a cloth that covered their butt and front, it was a little too revealing.

Am I at the hospital, this seems too lavish for a hospital. Is this what private hospitals look like from the inside?

I looked down at my body, there were no bruises at all. Wait, was my skin always this soft and tanned, I'm so pathetic I don't even notice details like this.

I guess having a near-death experience can do this to a person. I removed the soft silk sheets and my eyes nearly popped out of my head. My legs looked as if they belonged to a model, they can't be mine they too long and pretty to be mine.

What kind of hospital is this?

I got out of the big bed and walked towards the dressing table on the right side of the room.

This is getting weird and dangerously approaching frightening. I didn't look like the same loser girl with freckles and glasses twice the size of her head. My pale skin was no longer pale but a nice golden brown tan and there was no trace of a single freckle on my face.

My once oily brown hair felt like soft silk against my skin and my eyes were no longer the same plain brown but a more chestnut hazel color.

Seriously, what kind of private hospital is this. Do they just alter their patient's looks without them knowing?

I finally took notice of my outfit, it was also made of silk and hung loosely around my body. I blink not believing my eyes, even their gowns are expensive there's no way in hell my medical bills can cover this.

Crap, how am I going to pay for all of this. I know my parents won't even bother with the expenses, they barely do these days.

Ah, what am I going to do?!

"Miss, your bath?"

My heart nearly jumped out of my chest, I completely forgot about the nurses.

"Oh, yes sorry" I walked over to the giant bath and I swallowed.

I'm going to be paying for the rest of my miserable life. As if I haven't gone through enough hardships already.

I jumped when one of them tried taking off my gown they looked at me confused "I must remove your nightgown" she explained.

The thought of her undressing me didn't sit well with me, I shook my head and proceeded to take it off myself and handed it to her.

She took it and bowed and took a step back. The sound of my bank account crying echoed in my head, why on earth was I placed in such an expensive hospital?

Was it the person who crashed into me paying for all of this, how loaded are they?

Gray eyes reached out her hand I took it as she led me into the giant bath. The water felt amazing and really warm, I caught the scent of rose past my nose and saw rose petals floating in the water.

If that person is paying for this then I can enjoy this moment of luxury before going back to my boring and sad life.

So that's what I did, I allowed the ladies to wash my hair and body, dry my body and even dress me in the most beautiful attire I've ever seen.

It was a sleeveless black dress with golden decorations at the bottom and hugged my body in all the right places I couldn't help but blush. They did my hair up into a far better version of my messy bun and decorated it with gold ornaments.

This is all highly extravagant, I was dressed as if I was attending a very private and probably expensive event.

My curiosity peaked "Is there an event happening?" "Yes miss, it's auctioned off" the lady replied in that polite manner.

"I'm sorry, what?!"

The doors swung open before gray eyes could reply and in came another nurse but she was dressed differently from them, she must be the head nurse, she was a little more covered up but still half-naked.

"Is she ready, it's almost time?"

"We just finished doing her hair."

Before I could protest they lead me out of the room and down a long white corridor with columns opening into a wide field of flowers.

This went from zero to a hundred real quick and my brain was having a hard time processing all of this.

How long was I out for? When did someone propose to me?

Who am I getting married to?!

The room was starting to spin, my mind was racing with so many questions and I was starting to get sick.

I didn't notice the fabric of the dress and stepped on it, causing me to trip and fall.

The nurses immediately assisted me up, worry and concern written all over their faces.

"Are you okay, you look pale, should we fetch you a glass of water?" the gray eyes asked.

"I don't blame her," one of them spoke "Hush your mouth," the other one hissed.

"What, I too would be pale with fear if I knew who I was going to serve" the one who spoke first argued back.

The two started bickering back and forth, the head nurse had to intervene meanwhile I was about ready to pass out.

I walked over to one of the giant columns to use as a stand to keep me from dropping down.

"Miss take deep breathes" gray eyes were standing next to me, supporting me by holding my hand and rubbing my back, she looked at me with sympathetic eyes "It's okay to be nervous, as long as you do as your told you'll be fine,"

Oh, my soul.

They are so far off the mark, I can't help but chuckle. This is all too sudden, moments ago I got into an accident and now I'm suddenly getting auctioned.

This is a joke, someone is pulling a prank on me.

There's got to be a camera somewhere around here.

This is just too ridiculous, this is something one reads in a novel where the main character suddenly wakes up in a different era.

Wait, did I time travel?

Did I go back in time, judging by the outfits and how ancient yet still new this place looks I must have.

"I'm not in a hospital, am I?" I swallowed I could already feel my throat getting dry.

"Hospital? Uh no you at the Temple of Anubis"
