However, my friend mentioned that a piece of writing I'd done was about being mentally trapped, she said that I was the one that was mentally trapped. I know it shouldn't bother me as I'm not one to buy into the whole popularity fake thing, but it's really getting me down.What can I do?

 This girl sounds like a manipulative piece of work. I'm not saying that she'll never change... you're young. However, she's not going to change any time soon. She sounds like she's using you to copy from your book. Maybe she thinks you're nice because you let her copy your work, but otherwise... if this girl really liked you, she would make a real effort to talk to you.
Forget her.

 I'm not sure I follow this. . . your friend says that you are mentally trapped (whatever that means), and you sit next to a popular girl that said you were really nice.
What is it that bothers you, your friend saying you were mentally trapped or that the popular girl is possibly fake?
