*~*~MISERY'S LOVE COMPANY~*~*
Chapter One: New Friends
Beth and Ellie made an odd pair. For some people you could pick out who their friends were or look at someone and say "yeah, they're friends" But it was more of a shock to people when they realized not only were they friends, but they were best friends. Different in every aspect of style and image they didn't seem like they were even compatible. Yet if you dressed them in exactly the same clothes, some people would swear they were twins. Both relatively short, Beth a little taller, and both had a fairly decent body. In fact, a little more then fairly decent. Beth's hair was dyed red and wavy and Ellie's was brown with natural gold highlights and curly. Born on the same day, only six hours and twenty-three minutes apart, the girls even swore they were twins.
Ellie wasn't exactly "punk". Some people said she was, others would call her a poser but Ellie dressed the way she wanted to, it didn't matter to her as long as she knew who she was. Her wardrobe consisted of band T- shirts, sports T-shirts, T-shirt T-shirts, tight shirts, loose shirts, long sleeved, short sleeved, shabby and nice ones. She normally wore jeans, either baggy or hip hugging flares held together by safety pins. Occasionally she would wear skirts, shorts, or capris, with her signature striped tights underneath. Ellie tried to avoid classifying herself because she really didn't care. She did, however, have a few articles that made her different from the rest of the normal high school mesh. On each of her fingers was a ring, her right wrist was covered in multi-colored paper clip bracelets and her left with a watch and black and red jelly bracelets. Around her neck was a choker, a cross necklace, an identity necklace, one of those medium sized ball necklaces, and two other necklaces, each with significance. Her chocolaty brown eyes were always thickly lined with black and topped with silver. No, Ellie wasn't "punk". She had a style of her own that made her uniquely her.
Beth, on the other hand, cared about the way she looked, and she cared about what other people thought about her. Rarely did Beth ever dress down. In fact, dressing down for her was wearing nice jeans, a tightish shirt, and an orange Aéropostale sweatshirt. She usually wore tightish jeans and flattering shirts or sweaters. One might consider her look to be more of a preppy look. Always coordinated and often looking very well put together, Beth also had her own look, which Ellie would tease her as being whorish. Of course Beth wasn't a whore, in fact she was no where close to being one. It was all in good fun. Occasionally Beth would wear a skirt, often a flattering one at that, and Ellie would tease her even more. Beth wore a couple of rings and normally a necklace and watch. Sometimes she would wear a bracelet or another necklace but necklace but never as much jewelry as Ellie did.
It was this major difference in style that seemed to make it so weird for the girls to be so close. But once people got to know them it was hard to believe they were two different people. Beth was smart and very dedicated to her school work. Full of common sense but awfully self-conscious at times and slightly shy when it came to dealing with guys. She was also always cheerful and always tried to be nice to everyone she met. In fact there were only three people she actually disliked. Ellie, on the other hand, was smart but lazy, often relying on Beth with help, usually the answers, on her school work. Occasionally ditzy but very street smart and quite intimidating at times. Full of self-confidence, usually knew just what she wanted and how to get it. However she was one of those people you either loved or hated and normally held grudges. The girls complimented each other so well and seemed to know exactly what the other was thinking or wanted to say.
Both girls knew how much their friendship meant to each other. No matter how many times Beth would loose her common sense over a guy, or Ellie would make Beth do something for her, they both knew that deep down inside they really cared. In fact, even though they kept it as secret as possible, they had matching scars on their hands from where they had pledged their friendship to each other and promised that no matter what they would be there for each other, through thick and through thin.
Ellie and Beth met in the eighth grade where life was so much more simple. In high school they got thrown into the whirlwind of pressures to be "cool". They got thrown into extra-activities, sports and relationships. Both girls sang, and Ellie was involved in drama. Beth joined the dance team and Ellie joined the gymnastics and softball team. However, even their differences in activities and the pressures of high school didn't put a damper to their friendship. They did begin to meet new people, and through Spanish 2 freshman year, Beth met her other best friend, Anthony "Racetrack" Higgins.
Ellie and Race got along well, and soon after Beth and Ellie were introduced to the group of guys Race had hung out with back in middle school, and who he was still hanging with. Perhaps it was their similarity in personalities but the girls and guys clicked, and suddenly the approaching years of high school looked a lot better with new friends.
