"People have told me that ice is fragile, easily broken. I am nothing like that. I'm solid as steel and strong. I am...unbreakable." that's what I keep telling myself.
"Honey, Dinners on the table" I snap out of my thoughts
"Coming" I yelled before grabbing my jumper and racing down the stairs to the living room.
"Sweet heart, are you feeling ok, you look a little pale" my mum asked while feeling my forehead
"Yeah I just tired" I opened the fridge and poured myself a glass of orange juice. We sat down, said grace and ate in silence
"How was your day?" mum said trying to make convocation
"Good" I replied, the convocation quickly died. It's just us, me and mum, dad died when I was ten and mum never got remarried, were not that close any way, it feels like I'm living with a stranger although I've known her for my whole life, but that doesn't change anything. Mum works the night shifts at the hospital, she said her good byes and left, leaving me alone. It was still early so I decided to take a shower; I dragged my way upstairs and to the bathroom where I stood in the hot water relaxing my tensed muscles.
"Come on skinny love, just last the year, pour a little salt on you were never here" I sang. Turning off the sower I reached for the towel, which wasn't there
"shit" I swore under my breath, I made a dash for it and ran to my room, I made it half way down the hall before I slipped on the rug sending me crashing to the floor, I laid there until my cat snowball decided that it would be a perfect time to come and sit on my stomach
"Ah, it's gonna be a long night isn't" I sighed. I got dressed and decided to play some music.
"your insecure, don't know what for, your turning heads when you walk through the door" I scream, music full blast and rocking out on my air guitar when my best friend Jade climbs through the window, she lives right next door and there's a huge tree between our bedrooms so she tends to come in and out of my house as she pleases.
"Do you mind turning this music down" she yells over Liam's singing
"No, its ok, I don't mind" I reply still rocking on my air guitar. Suddenly the music stops and I shot a glare towards Jades direction
"Whoops" she said innocently while swinging the cable from my CD around in circles
"Well I'm grabbing something to eat down stairs, you want anything?" she called over her shoulder before exiting the room
"you know that's what people normally say to their guests not the other way around" I said out loud shaking my head. She kicked open the door with her hands full of food crudely it like a baby she chucked the food onto the bed and sat down grabbing a piece of cold pizza left over from last night and pouring whipped cream on top of it
"That's disgusting Jade" I yelled grabbing a pop tart and parking my butt next to her
"It's gonna be mixed up in my stomach any way" she said before filling her mouth up with cream
"you womth sum?" she asked offering the can towards me
"Yeah, no" I say taking a bite of my pop tart, not enough sugar
"Actually, pass it over" I say leaning over to grab the cream. We talked and ate until Jade decided to call it a night and climb back to her room leaving mine in a mess, being as lazy as I am I kick all the wrappers and pizza boxes off my bed and slept in my bra and undies not bothering to comb my hair or brush my teeth.
