Prologue:
Funny how life treats you? The nicest people have the worst lives. I shouldn't even be here. I should be living it up at college, sorting out my future. Instead I'm stuck on replay, the days blurring into months, a never-ending cycle of filth.
It all started one day when I came home from senior year with my final math test of the year. I got an A, as per usual, but that wasn't considered good enough for my father and Krista-May, the slut of a step-mother I got stuck with. We got into this massive argument which resulted in Krista-May hacking into my Facebook account, posting lies all over my profile, calling me a retard and kicking me out.
I ran away. Stupid, I know, but my so-called 'friends' thought I was some sort of slut now. I left San Francisco, and headed North-East. I had family in Vegas I could crash with. When I got there, I found out they'd died 2 years ago. But I met Thalia, and we grew close. We'd both been through so much, and we couldn't trust anyone but each other.
And now I'm stuck in this hell-hole, slowly dying, fading into nothing. But it's better than living with that stuck-up bitch.
A/N: I don't own anything, just my OCs and my failed attempt at drawing a cover-image. (I've forgotten to put that in every time!)
So, I got the idea for this while reading Tricks by Ellen Hopkins. It's a really good book, I'd recommened to everyone. Sorry this is short, but it's just the prologue, the chapters will be longer. And I apologise to anyone who may have the name Krista-May, I'm sure you're a lovely person. :)
A quick heads up, in the next few chapters, there will be a bit of swearing, so please let me know if you think the rating should be changed.
Love always,
