Chapter 1: This is my Life
Friday
October 22
2010
I rolled out of bed in shock, due to my alarm clock blaring in my ear. I let out a tiny yelp as I collided with the floor on my stomach, my comforter falling on top of me. I groaned in annoyance and yanked the covers off my head. I let out a brief huff of anger and stood up, then stumbled over to my dresser and slammed my alarm clock off. I sighed in relief at the silence and felt around for some clothes in my dawn lit room. 7:30 a.m. and the sun just rose over the horizon. I managed to find and put on a black long, t-shirt that hugged my body and showed off my hour glass figure. I also slipped on a pair of old jeans with holes in both knees, along with my black belt with silver studs. I yawned over dramatically and brushed my black silk pin straight, shoulder length hair. My chocolate brown eyes added the tiredness look on my face. I yawned once more and held the small pendent around my neck. It was small silver heart, and in the middle of it was a small circular sapphire. I smiled, this necklace was special to me, why? Well, I'll get to that later. A distant yelling from the kitchen made my smile fade and my thoughts vanish.
"I told you to hand in the paperwork 'yesterday'!" An angry voice shouted, I rolled my eyes, for I knew that voice.
"Biff." I mumbled, putting on some eye liner and mascara. Biff Tannen, the biggest jack ass I knew. Yelling at my dad no doubt...again. I cracked my knuckles, I probably should go and back dad up. He never really was able to stand up for himself. I opened my door and proceeded down the hallway, the yelling getting louder.
"Do you know what would happen if I turned in 'my' paperwork in 'your' handwriting? I'll get fired! You wouldn't want that now would you?" Biff asked my dad as I peeked into the kitchen. Dad was very shorter, skinnier, and wimpier than Biff...scratch that, than anyone.
"N-...no of...of course not Biff..." My dad replied weekly, both him and Biff were around their 40's if not early 50's. Dad had slicked back, black hair, glasses, a white buttoned up t-shirt, a black tie, grey dress pants, and black dress shoes, and Biff...well who really cares?
"Of course you don't." Biff stated, pushing back his dirty blond hair, as if it really needed it.
"I...I...I c-can maybe get them...tomorrow..." My dad started, but Biff cut him off. He grabbed my dad by his tie and yanked forward a bit, knocking on the top of his head.
"Hello! Hello! Anyone home?" Biff asked teasingly, as if my dad was stupid. As a reaction, dad just chuckled, thinking it was a joke.
"Think McFly, think! I gotta have time to re-type them, in order to do that I need those papers today!" Biff stated, releasing my dad's tie.
"So do them yourself." I commented, almost not knowing I did, my eyes widened, but it was too late; Biff and dad had already spotted me. I was a little scared of Biff, I mean, who wouldn't be? He towered over me, and he was strong, but, I guess I had to suck that up. Biff glared at me, he hated me, and that was that.
"Oh, uh, mornin' Marlie." My dad greeted with a slight wave, I nodded a bit, then looked to Biff. A strange silence of anger was held, until Biff broke it.
"What are you lookin' at Butthead?" I rolled my eyes, a 40 something year old man, calling a 15 year old a butthead, real mature.
"Well I'm looking at your ug-" But before my sharp tongue could work dad interrupted me.
"Marlie!" Dad shouted, making me stop in mid sentence, I looked to him, silence now drowning me. This made Biff smirk, I was in shock, absolute shock.
"I want those papers by tonight McFly." Biff ordered, and with that he was gone, dad leaned on the counter and straightened his tie, avoiding my gaze. I looked to him slowly, still in utter shock, how could dad take Biff's side, over his own daughter's!
"Dad...why?" Was all I could ask, he sighed slightly, still not even baring to look at me.
"Marlie, you know Biff is my super-visor, I have to do what he says." He told me, I sighed myself, it was the same old story every time. In order to avoid an argument, I replied with a simple answer.
"Whatever dad." Was all I said before grabbing my black skateboard, and my black and red backpack. I ran out the front door and skated down the street, slinging my bag over my shoulder. I took out my i-pod from my pocket and fiddled around with it a bit as I rode out of my neighborhood 'Lion estates', I did a couple more actions with it before putting it back in my pocket. Then I rode into town, 'Hill Valley, a happy place to live!', at least that's what the sign said. I finally looked up only for my eyes to widen as I collided with a figure.
"Ack!" I shouted, falling to the ground, me on top of them and my board flinging off in a random direction.
"Oh! I'm so sorry!" I said, quickly getting off the figure, the figure, who I found out was male, chuckled slightly.
"Jeremy?" I asked, looking to the person I crashed into, and surely enough, it was my brown haired, crystal blue eyed boyfriend, shining his famous smile at me as he stood up.
"Hey angel." He greeted, I smiled widely and blushed slightly before flinging my arms around his neck in a hug. He chuckled once more and whole-heartedly hugged back.
"How ya been?" I asked, breaking the hug and running a hand through my hair, he smiled.
"I'm fine, now that you're here." He said, I rolled my eyes yet kept my smile on, how corny. We've been dating for about a year, I remember he asked me out at the 'shining star dance', long story to why it's called that.
"Awww, you're so sweet." I stated, then realized I didn't have my board anymore.
"Shit." I mumbled, looking around for my skate board. Jeremy realized this and started looking around him as well.
"It's here somewhere." He told me, I nodded in agreement, that's when I spotted it in a nearby bush.
"Found it!" We both shouted simultaneously, then our eyes met and we laughed at each others company. He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me close, a soft smile graced his features. How I loved that smile. We leaned in for a passionate kiss, when suddenly, some sort of steam whistle went off in a house not far from us. I jumped slightly, then cringed, Doc. I rolled my eyes and sighed, what 'great' timing Doc. Jeremy looked a bit disappointed as well, he knew what the whistle was for. He realised his grip from me, as I slightly jogged over to grab my skateboard from the bush. I adjusted my backpack and made my way back over to Jeremy.
"Don't worry, I'll catch ya later." I told him, giving him a quick peck on the cheek, he blushed slightly and smiled again. I grinned then jogged to a small house near by, I revealed the key hidden under the mat and opened the door, I pushed it open and placed the key back in it's spot. The mat fell over it once more as the door shut behind me.
"Doc? I'm here." I called out, the whistle was a way for Doc to call me anytime he needed it. Oh! I should explain, Doctor Emmett L. Brown, one could say my best friend. A local town scientist who I assisted most of the time, not cause I had to, because I wanted to. I looked around the place, it was an absolute mess! Papers 'everywhere', all of Doc's equiptment on, Einstein's food bowl overflowing, and so on and so forth.
"Damn what a mess..." I stated under my breath, I walked into another section of the house only to see Doc. He was looking out his window, through his blinds. I raised an eyebrow and slowly made my way towards him, trying not to be heard, at least not yet. I stood on my tiptoes, now able to see what he was looking at, it was the spot Jeremy and I were standing moments ago. He was spying on us! I frowned a bit and placed my skateboard down silently on the floor.
"Yo Doc." I spoke, making him jump and whip around, his eyes widened a bit at the sight of me and his white hair standing on end.
"Marlie!...Good you finally showed up." He said, seeming to change the strange subject, I rolled my eyes and shrugged his previous action away.
"Yeah, that whistle is hard to miss." I replied, he nodded slightly then hastily made his was over to one of his desks, I followed slightly, keeping my distance from him.
"So, what's up?" I asked, placing my hands in my pockets, watching Doc with only half my focus.
"Marlie I'm glad to tell you I've almost completed my latest breakthrough!" He told me, ecstatically, rummaging through some papers.
"Oh there's a shock..." I breathed quietly, he looked to me and raised an eyebrow.
"What was that?" He asked, I looked to him a bit nervously, hoping he didn't really hear me.
"I said, that's great Doc." I lied, he nodded then focused his gaze back on what he was doing with the papers. This gave me some time to observe him, he was way taller then me, with long white hair, big brown eyes, like mine. A white lab coat with a blue button up collared shirt, brown pants, and brown shoes.
"Marlie, were you listening?" He asked me, I snapped back into focus, I had missed everything he just said.
"Uh, yeah Doc..." I replied doubtfully, smiling nervously a bit, he showed a disappointed frown and placed his hands on his hips.
"Don't you lie to me young lady. Must I repeat what I just explained?" He asked, staring at me in the eyes, it always happened when he was slightly dissapointed. I smiled sheepishly and nodded a bit.
"It would help." I replied, but just as soon as he was about to speak once more, all the clocks in the room burst in our ears. I covered my ears and clenched my teeth at the loud irratating sound, Doc just looked around at the clocks filled with excitement.
"My experiment worked perfectly! All the clocks are running exactly 25 minutes slow!" He told me, this finally made me look at the clocks, they all read 7:35.
"Wait a minute...Doc. Are you telling me it's actually 8 o' clock?" I asked, slightly shocked and nervous, he beamed at me with a cheerful smile.
"Precisely!" He replied, a little too over excited.
"Damnit!" I shouted in a breakdown, he raised an eyebrow and stood still now, his excitement finally fading.
"I'm late for school!" I explained to him in a shout, and in a hurry. He seemed to get tense at this and jerked a bit.
"Wait! I gotta tell you to-" But I cut him off.
"Doc, listen I really gotta go! Strickland's gonna kill me if I'm late again!" I hurried over to my skateboard, snatched it up, then ran out the door calling to Doc behind me.
"I'll talk to ya later!" And with that I opened the gate, closed it on my way out, then placed my skateboard in front of me and I jumped on, skating onto the main street and grabbing onto the back of a driving by truck. Now honestly, yes it was illegal for this to be happening but I only did it to get across the street. I quickly let go and rode to my school, I skid to a stop and threw my skateboard into a bush for hiding. No one ever found it anyways. A brown haired girl with a high ponytail, pink sweater and old jeans stood on the front steps, as if waiting for me. I made my way up and greeted the girl.
"Hey Becca." I said, she looked to me hesitantly and turned me around gently.
"Marlie don't go this way, Strickland's looking for you and if you get caught you'll be in deep shit." She told me, I nodded slightly. Mr. Strickland was the principal of my school, a real jerk who roams the school giving detentions and calling everyone a slacker...well...to put it bluntly I suppose. I came out of my thoughts as Becca and I entered the school from the back way, the halls were empty and everything was quiet.
"What was the reason this time?" Becca asked me, at this saying I put my hands up in defence.
"Hey, it wasn't my fault this time. Doc set all his clocks 25 minutes slo-" But I was interrupted by a stern voice.
"Doc? Am I to understand you're still hanging around with Doctor Emmett Brown, McFly?" We both froze and turned around slowly only to see Strickland standing there, his arms crossed and an angry expression on his face. He tore off a pink piece of paper from a notepad and handed it to Becca.
"Tardy slip for you miss Madison. And one for you McFly I believe that makes four in a row." He told me, I rolled my eyes and snatched the paper from him, crumbling it up and stuffing it into my pocket.
"Now let me give you a nickel's worth of advice, young lady. This so called Doctor Brown is dangerous, he's a real nutcase. You hang around with him you're gonna end up in big trouble." He warned me, I rolled my eyes slightly once more and shrugged my shoulders thinking, a little too late for that.
"Oh, yes sir." I replied smartly, he glared at me intensely actually making me shrink back a bit in fright.
"You got a real attitude problem, McFly. You're a slacker. You remind me of your father when he went here, he was a slacker too." He told me, and as much as I hated to say it, he was actually right about that part. Not wanting to continue with the conversation with him, I cleared my throat slightly and glanced over to Becca, then back at Strickland.
"Can I go now Mr. Strickland?" I asked, digging my hands deeper into my pockets, but instead of saying yes, Strickland got real close my face, yet still shouted when he talked.
"I noticed your band is on the roster for dance auditions after school today. Why even bother Mcfly, you haven't got a chance, you're too much like your own man. No McFly ever amounted to anything in the history of Hill Valley." He mostly shouted at me, I kept my look strong and bold.
"Yeah, well history's gonna change." I told him, he grunted and headed off down the hall, I flipped him off slightly. Becca grabbed onto one of my arms and pulled me slightly.
"Come on, let's get to science class!" She urged me, I nodded and together we both raced down the hall.
Well, there's chapter one everyone ^^ I hoped you enjoyed it, more coming soon. Please R&R it's very appreciated. Thankies and PEACE XD
