Okay, in this story… I HEAR A WHO! How righteous is that?!?!?!!? WOOHOO! If anyone wants to be in this story, give me your name and your personality. If you're smart enough not to give me a real name, good for you! Give me a fake name, and I'll use it. I need characters!!! WOOHOO!
"God, school is so stupid! I mean really! If they're gonna make us get up at the crack of dawn, they may as well make it worth it!" I yelled to Rabidue (Rah-BUH-dew) as we walked down the halls of Nool High school, the chains of my Tripp Pants jiggling as we came closer to the cafeteria; it was about noon and we were heading for lunch. It was your everyday Thursday in May, the 15th to be exact, but it was even more boring than usual.
"No shit," She muttered, flinging her medium brown hair from in front of her eyes. She was wearing her usual hat; a knitted blue one that her grandmother made her. "Well, at least tomorrow's Friday."
"How does that help me now?" I asked dramatically as we entered the crowded cafeteria, "We still have three fucking hours of school left, what am I supposed to do for three hours!?" I blew my short magenta from in my face, letting it land somewhere on top of my head.
"You could read," Rabadue suggested, "Or you could text Maddie and see what she's up to. Or, hell, you could even use your little laser pen thingy and piss off Mr. Zon again! That was so funny last time!" She chuckled as we sat at our usual table and waited for the others. Half of my friends didn't show up today, bitches, their parents let them skip on account of sunny weather. I know, right? WTF?!!?
"Nah," I replied as I took my seat and got my lunch out of my Emily the Strange lunchbox, "It was funny last time, that's the point! It is getting way to boring around here! We should do somet—"
"Well, if it ain't the devil himself," Alison and Taylor walked up to Rabadue and I, "And his little sidekick! How cute!" The two bitches laughed at their lame joke.
"Hey Ally!" Mona walked up and sat down, her black button up shirt was unbuttoned, and she had a purple tank top underneath. "Oh, could you bring my favorite thong back? I think I left it in your closet." She basically yelled the last part; no, Mona wasn't a lesbian, but we were convinced Allison was, so we tormented her about it.
Every head in the cafeteria turned towards us, and laughed. Allison and Taylor were not the most popular girls in the school, but they thought that they were. My group of friends aren't really popular at all, but everyone knew us.
"I—what?!" She screamed and walked away blushing.
I giggled, "Nice one, Mona." I gave her a high-five.
"Yup," She said with an evil smirk.
"Hey guys," Jessica sat down next to Mona and pulled out her green lunch box, "Do you like my new hair?" Jessica dyed/restyled her hair at least twice a month, she was just like that. This time she had grown it out and dyed it a nice honey auburn. It was layered and she had bangs in front of her left eye.
"Not bad, but I liked the last one better." Rabidue nodded dully.
"Hi Lyllith," Alice came and hugged me from behind, her spiky black hair tickling my neck. She was my sister so I had to let her hug me, but it's still weird! "Hey everybody, you'll never guess who asked me out last night." She wiggled her eyebrows at us.
"Hmm," I sighed dramatically, "Was it Josh, by any chance?"
"YEP!" She giggled and clapped her hands together, "We're going to the movies tomorrow after school."
"Speaking of tomorrow," Heather walked up and sat next to Alice, "Are we still on for tomorrow night?"
Every Friday we had an annual girls night out; pigging out, watching scary movies, talking about boys in dirty ways, and makeup. Lots and lots of makeup…
"Of course," I said with a mouth full of salad, "When are we not?"
"Never!" Everyone said, laughing as we all began to eat.
"Hey, where's Becca?" Jessica asked suddenly, looking around our table.
"Right here," She sat down, throwing her curly hair up in a messy bun, "Sorry I'm late, but Mrs. Constantino bitched me out over last night's assignment."
"Haha," Rabidue laughed sarcastically at her, "As least you don't have deten—"
And lunch just continued just like always… Boring and full of, well, nothing really.
The rest of the school day passed in a blur, I didn't realize it was time to leave until the end of the day bell basically woke me up.
"Don't forget about your projects!" Mr. Zon yelled as we all walked out.
A few 'Whatever's were heard on my way out, but other than that it was just the roar of teens talking.
I walked home every day; I enjoyed the town great joys. I love this town; it was in the middle of a jungle, but my favorite part was the flowers that grew here and only here.
There was a cold breeze today so I had my Nightmare Before Christmas hoodie on. It was black with Jack's face on the front; on the back it said 'What is This?' My chains still clinged and clanged as a walked, and my boots made a thump as they hit the ground. Under my hoodie I wore a To Write Love on Her Arms tee; it was grey with green letters.
"Hey Lyllith!" I heard someone call my name, "Wait up, bitch!" My friend, Wynona, was running towards me. She was wearing a stripped red and purple long sleeved shirt and black skinny jeans. Her medium short orange hair was flying behind her.
"Hey, Wyno," I said when she caught up to me, "Didn't see you today, where the hell were you?"
"Oh, I cut today," She panted, attempting to fix her hair as we began to walk, "Didn't want to take the quiz in Williamson's." She shrugged.
I laughed lightly, "Okay," We came up to her apartment complex, The Cove, and stopped walking. "So, you coming on Friday?"
"Fuck yeah," She gave me a high-five, "Have I ever missed a BNO?"
"No, you have never missed a Bitches Night Out." I laughed again, but stopped short when I heard a little noise float by my ear.
"AAAAAAHHHHHH!" It sounded like a faint cry for help, as if someone were screaming.
"Did you say something, Wyno?" I turned to my friend, "I heard a scream…"
"Trust me, Lyll," She laughed, "If I had screamed, you'd of heard it!" She began to walk up the way to her apartment.
"Ok—" I heard it again!
"HELP! PLEASE!" the sound was high pitched, but when I looked all I saw was a little… What was that?... A small speck of dust, maybe?
"Lylli?" Wynona looked at me with a confused expression, "Are you okay? You looked kinda dazed…"
"Er, listen. I gotta go, um, BYE!" I began to run after the little speck, I KNOW I heard something.
"Oh…kay?" She shrugged and walked away.
"God, Lyllith," I muttered to myself, "You're crazy!"
I finally spotted the speck, it was floating in the middle of the road. Shit… A car was coming by very fast.
I grabbed the first thing I could find; A pink Clover. A dashed right in front of the car and the speck landed on top of the Clover. The car honked at me loudly.
"Jesus, girl!" A familiar voice yelled at me, as I lay in the street with the Clover in my hand. "What the F—Lyllith? Is that you? What the hell were you doing in the middle of the street?!" I turned my head to look at my old friend, and secret crush, Connor Fecht. His long, shaggy dark brown hair hung in front of his eyes. He smiled at me, but his face was a sarcastic one.
"Um, hey!" I said, blowing the hair out of my face. "How are you?" I put my chin in my hand casually, even though I was still lying in the middle of the road.
"You should probably get up, ya know, before you get hit?" He got out of the car to help me up, he held out his tan hand and helped me to my feet. "Damn girl," He muttered, looking me over. "You grew up!" We hadn't seen each other in about a year or maybe two… Okay! 679 days…
"Yeah," I said, uncomfortable, "So did you." And yes, he had. He was WAY more muscular than he had been, and he was a little bit taller…
"So where are you headed?" He asked me sweetly, he still hadn't let go of my pale hand.
"Home," I shrugged. I glanced down at the flower in my hand. I could see the small speck sitting there, silently. I know I heard it scream…
"Let me give you a ride," He said to me sweetly, swoon, "You still live in Calvin, right?"
"Yeah, I do." I held on tightly to the clover, "But I have a few stops to make before I head home, but thanks anyways." I let his hand go and I walked away; the last thing I wanted to do was get in a car with that guy. I like him and all, he's really hot. But he's a bit of a man-whore.
"Oh, okay," He sounded slightly disappointed, not many girls turn him down. "See you 'round, then!" He waved back and got in his car and drove away.
"God, Lyllith," I slapped myself in the forehead, "Why did you do that!?" I threw my hands into the air with a jolt, and I heard the screaming again. It made me jump.
"Whoa!" I brought the clover up to my face to look at the small speck. "Shit, I know I heard you! It was as clear as the ring in my nose! God…" I began to walk towards my house, yes, I had lied about making a stop. So I just began the mile walk home. "Wow, Lyllith. Wow." I chuckled to myself, "You're talking to yourself and hearing voices…nice!"
A clap of thunder in the distance caught my attention; I glanced at the graying sky. I didn't have an umbrella with me… and just as I thought that, I felt a small, cold raindrop hit my nose.
"Shit," I pulled my hood up and began to run, my chains jingling as I ran.
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" I stopped quickly, all most falling forward as a noise carried up to my ears.
I looked at the clover, I thought that after I stopped running, the noise would stop, but it didn't. It was raining; what if the little person on the speck was drowning?!?!?!
I placed my hand quickly into the long pocket of my hoodie, gently…
WTF?!?!
"What am I doing?" I said to myself as I slowed to a walk, "I must be going crazy…" Even though I knew I had to be imagining it, I couldn't bring myself to drop the flower.
"Oh, whatever. I am not crazy…" I walked up to a bus stop and sat down on the covered bench. I could catch a ride… "I just know you said something!" I sighed in frustration, but then I realized, "Maybe you can't hear me… That's it. Your ears must be tiny." I laughed at myself, "I'll just have to speak up." I took a deep breath, "HEEEEEELLLLLOOOOO?????!!!!!"
Well, there's the first chapter…Yup… not very good! Oh well, the next one will be better, I swear! I give you my honor!
