This Is Not A Love Story
Hi guys, this is my first fan fiction I'm not gonna be one of those people who writes their life story over the beginning of chapters, don't worry. I'm just introducing myself... So review etc if you like.
Poppy
'Poppy! Get ass down here, I'm taking you to school!' My heart stopped. Of all the days mum could decide she wants to take me school, she had to choose the day I was supposed to ditch didn't she? Tamzin was gonna be so mad at me…
Tamzin
I took a deep breath, quickly slammed the door and locked it behind me. I stepped out of the back gate, and watching for the neighbours, began to power walk down the road. Right, left, right and I reached the bus stop. Paying the driver, I walked to the back row and lost myself in my headphones. I was the most nervous I had ever been – well at least that I could remember anyway. It was probably nothing compared to what I would feel coming home.
Too Much Of Anything Is Too Much…
Alex's sweet vocals calmed me, along with the knowledge my razor was safe in my pocket. Pressing the button, I arrived at the bottom of the hill I was meant to meet Poppy at and sat at the stop. Then I waited.
And waited.
We were on a pretty tight schedule, and it wasn't like Poppy to be late. After 15 minutes, I phoned her, and after the third attempt she answered. 'Poppy, finally, where are you? We're going to miss the train!'
'I'm not coming!' she hissed, and I was surprised at the venom in her voice.
'Why? What's up?' I asked confused – we already bought all the tickets and everything we needed.
'I can't do it! I have to go… My first lesson is starting. Bye.' She hung up, and I felt my eyes filling up with tears. Even my best friend left me.
Once I had composed myself, I thought over my options. I had a choice to make, one, I could go home, change and go to school horrendously late and supposedly ill. Two, I could go to London alone, without Poppy.
Poppy
I hated letting her down.
