BEEP BEEP BEEP
The alarm goes off ringing in Ella's ears. First day of her community service where she would have to spend time cleaning shit up and picking up other peoples littler, may i add with other young offenders. Today was going to be hell, not only did she hate doing others dirty work but making new friends were not Ella's strong point, sure she would flirt with guys get what she wanted and then ditch and leave but that was different anybody can get friends when they're intoxicated with alcohol. Realising the horror of today Ella got up and looked at herself in the mirror, her long dark brown hair was in a tangled mess and her deep brown eye's still half closed from sleep. Why? Ella thought to herself in the mirror How have you managed to get yourself in this situation? Ella thought back to where it all began...
*Flashback*
Bowling, who the hell goes bowling at 20? been dragged here by my work friends just makes it more embarassing. Ella's friend Elise was just about to throw her ball when her boyfriend grabbed her by the waist, somehow he was trying to distract her so she wouldnt throw the ball and beat him. Watching them kiss made Ella feel queezy, i mean im all for good time but in a bowling alley? Is there any need for that? Go home to bed and do it in the privacy of your own walls and doors, even outside in the alley way just not where i am.
"Im off to get a drink to wash down the vomit in my throat" Ella said
"Aw Ella, so grumpy maybe we should find you a man" Elise had said winking at her and giggling
"Yeah, somehow I don't think that's what I need, would you stop fucking dry humping her? everybody's starting to stare" Ella groaned inwardly
The couple locked in even more passionate embrace. Ella had enough and stormed off to get a drink as she got to the vending machine there was a boy there with curly brown hair and green eyes, he was picking through the pick and mix sweets eating them and stuffing some in his pockets. He must have noticed Ella staring because he held out his hand and looked at her with curious eyes.
"Want some?" the curly boy said
"You are suppose to pay for them you know? I think thats classed as stealing" a smirk came uponm the curly boy's face
"Not if you eat them all at once" he winked at her and she laughed, this guy was such a weirdo but she couldnt help but laugh at the things he did.
she then took a pick and mix out of his hand and started to chew when she saw the security guard marching over to them.
"Look's like were in for it now" she looked at the curly haired boy who turned to see the security guard behind him
"You need to pay for them sweets please sir, you cant just eat them like that" he said in a stern voice
"oh well iv already eaten them now, so that's a shame" popping another pick and mix in his mouth
"Put those down and pay for the one's you have eaten" he was gritting his teeth, how fucking rude Ella thought. Fuck this
"Have you ever heard of try before you buy? that's what we were doing? I had one pick and mix if your suggesting i give you that 5p for the one sweet i have eaten? Then im going to have to tell you to fuck off..."
She looked at his name badge for his name and the humour rose in her throat she couldnt stop herself
"Beverly" she started laughing along with the curly haired boy who now couldnt stop smiling
"Beverly? who the fuck gave you that name? Its a girls name? your like a chick with a dick" said the curly one.
Ella could tell the security guard wasn't taking much more
He then grabbed his walky talky and talked down it
"Security guard's come to the sweet isle please"
Ella looked at the curly haired boy and realised they both needed to do the same thing, they both tried to push past the security guard, who caught Nathan by the chest, next thing Ella knew was the curly haired one is screaming down the microphone
"I'm been assaulted by a chick with a dick"
Ella couldnt just leave him the next thing she knew she had grabbed his hand and pulled him away from the sceuirty guard who was lying on the floor. The curly haired boy then dragged Ella the oposite way she saw the other guards running down but where the hell was this boy taking her? Next thing were running across peoples bowling alleys running away from the security guards. There was no way of getting out now, she was then taken down by one of the security guards and laid across the bowling alley floor, she turned her head to see the curly haired boy also been pinned down 'Wonderful' she thought this is just what i need.
The security guards office was small and dull, both the curly haired boy and I was sat in seats next to each other while the man over the desk looked at us both with an evil grin.
"Are you both going to pay for those sweets" he said. Ella was pissed off now, how dare he look at her like that, she she was some sort of a game the fucking wanker!
"You want me to pay you 5p for a fucking sweet? Do I look like I carry 5p's around with me? No! I may have a 10p but I am not giving you it because thats far too much than what you need"
she huffed and puffed and noticed the curly boy smiling next to her.
"What?!" she said, he laughed and shook his head
"Nothing sweet cheeks clam yourself down!" he looked over at the man across the desk
"She's right though I don't think it would kill you to let us off with a few pick and mix"
he blinked his eyelashes at the man who shot a glare back, boy this kid is fucking weird!
"If you do not give me the money ill call the police" his voice could cut through glass, yet he was so small and chubby
"Fine"
The boy pulled out his card and handed it to the man, he then got up and walked out of the room, leaving me and the curly boy alone. He took this time to turn to me
"My name is Nathan, what's yours?" ahhhh so his name was Nathan. She then smiled at Nathan.
"My name's Ella, and since we're either about to go to jail or get something exciting happen to us you might as well get used to saying it"
he was about to say something when the security guard came in throwing Nathan's card at us.
"WANKER! what the fuck did you do that for!" Ella was getting angry now, fucking dick heads.
the security guard raised his voice
"THE CARD HAS BEEN DECLINED!" all of a sudden a man walks in rough looking and he stares at Nathan who's face turns in disgust.
"What the fuck are you doing here?" Nathan says to the rough looking man
"Your mother called from Spain said you were in trouble" he sounded the least bit interested.
"Well I fine not you can go now bye?" Ella could tell Nathan was getting angry? But why was he getting angry at this man?
"So your telling me, iv had to come all the way down here, for you to tell me your not in trouble? bullshit how much money does he owe you?"
"I don't want you to pay for anything I just want you to go?"
Nathan said in a nasty way, then it hit her that was it his dad? Step dad? i couldnt be sure but i turned away not wanting to be involved in the moment.
"Its either that or I call the police"
Nathan then looked at the security man with a huge grin on his face
"Call the police" he then looked towards what Ella could think was his dad and said
"You can go now" his dad opened the door and walked out leaving Nathan blow a sigh of relief.
The security guard laughed and looked at Nathan
"So thats your dad, you look like you both get on like a house on fire" Nathan's face turned into disgust
"Oh fuck off Beverly, Are you calling the police or what" he then turned to Ella.
"What about you, your parents come down for you?"
Ella gritted her teeth and spoke with as much anger as she could
"Well unless you want to wait here all night, My dad lives in America I am sure he would be here in about two days though"
Fucking knob
"What about your mum?" Ella looked at him smiling at her and lost her temper
"I don't talk to my mum, she's a bitch."
The secuirty guard knew he must have pissed her off he then picked up the phone and called the police after he finished he looked at both Nathan and Ella and started smiling
"They're on their way, Bet both of your parents are proud of you"
That was it Ella lost it she picked up the stapler on the desk and looked at the security guard
"Fuck off Beverly"
and shot a staple into his hand and threw the stapler behinde her. While the security guard moaned in pain from the tiny staple she saw Nathan laughing next to her. Fucking wuss its only a fucking staple you would have thought i had chopped his hand off.
*end of flashback*
After that they were both sent to court and given community service. Ella's dad had shouted at her down the phone and told her to seek therpy. Wanker.
She decided it was time to get ready for her day of community service. The shower only made her want to stay at home more, the idea of picking shit up and rubbish all day did not set well with her mind. Once Ella was dressed in her tight jeans and a stap top, she straightened her hair and applied her make up. After chucking her leather jacket on she made her way to the community centre.
When Ella had got there she saw a dark man with a clipboard
"Name?" he said
"Ella Childs"
he ticked her off and told her to go into the locker room. When she got there she met all the people she would be spending the next long weeks with, she saw Nathan and his curly dark hair and those green eyes, next she saw a girl with curly hair and a chocolate coloured look to her, she noticed the girl was putting her jump suit on and pushing her bra up to show her boobs. Fucking typical slag. After she noticed another girl scraping her hair back right to the back of her ponytail, holy shit that must be killing her head right now, she saw a dark coloured man who muscles and a good looking body, she recognised him he was the runner who got done for doing drugs busted Ella thought, she met eye's with the next one he was a shy kin of boy who kept quite, he looked a bit weird though not someone you want to be in a dark situation with, The next one much to her amusement was a gangster looking boy with a cap on he looked the dangeous type, which just made Ella want to laugh even more fucking dickhead.
After she took in the other people she made her way to her locker and noticed it was right next to Nathans fuck sake.
Nathan smiled at her putting her jumpsuit on
"Nice to see you again, ready for our community service, i think were going to get along just fine" he smirked at her the bastard
"Fuck off Nathan"
she smirked back and they all walked out of the locker room to go speak to the probation worker.
Here we fucking go.
