And yah this is my first fanfic so please dont flame me but constructive critism would be appreciated=D And Mia and Bree are my characters so please don't use them;)
"KISS ME KIKIKISS ME! INFECT ME WITH YOUR LOVE AND FILL ME WITH YOUR POI…" I blearily turned off my cellphone and put it on the side table. I looked at the girl in the bed across from me and smiled. Bree Blackthorne. My best friend /sister, whom I've known practically since birth, even though we look completely different with her blonde hair and astonishing, amber eyes and my long black hair and stormy gray eyes, our one similarity is that we got each other. Like all these other people who say their best friend always talk to them and ask them stuff about how they feel and if they are okay , we didn't have to do that. We just got each other. I got off my bed and went to the bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror in front of me and actually felt satisfied. Straight, long black hair and tan-ish skin and grey eyes stared
right back at me.
"This is Mia Volt….."
"Aaaannnd her best friend Bree Blackthorne!" Bree said as she jumped through the bathroom door.
I rolled my eyes and laughed "God damn Bree! Don't you knock?"
Bree started playing with her hair in the mirror and winked.
"That's not what sisters do," she said happily.
Bree had been living with us (my mom and I) for as long as I could remember. One time when I was about 7, I asked my mother about Bree's mom and dad. She never really did answer my question so here I am today, still wondering about where Bree's parents are. I guess I shouldn't be talking about what happened to Bree's parents when I don't even know what happened to my own father. Whenever I ask mom about him and why he left, she just got a faraway look in her eyes and said the same response I've gotten for years:
"He was strong Mia and his personality was wonderful. But our relationship was a secret. He had a position that was powerful and he couldn't have a family."
My mom never acted mad or jealous. She never complained or cursed the father I never met. She just lives every day normally and tries to make me and Bree's life better. Even though she often says she wishes she could give Bree and I better life if she hadn't had to drop out of her first year of college when her mom got cancer. When she died, she was left with endless grief and no money left to finish college. Her only lucky break was when she met my dad at the Smithsonian Museum to see the first airplane to ever fly: The Wright Brothers Flyer with her friend. She says when they first met, it was like electricity. After a little while, she got pregnant with me (way to fight to keep your v-cart mom!) and a little while after that, she got Bree. I went into my room and let her use the washroom and I got dressed. I met her down stairs eating breakfast with my mom. I waited impatiently for Bree while she was eating cereal.
"Hey mom, c'mon Bree were gonna be late!"
"Mia, at least eat something." Mom threw me granola bar,"Eat" she ordered, wagging a finger. I rolled my eyes and smiled, putting on my shoes, waiting impatiently at the door. I couldn't help but feel fidgety and cautious today. Be prepared Mia, for everything is about to change. Some man voice said in my head. Oh well. Bree's always said I'd been wacked by the crazy stick at birth I thought. Whatever. Maybe mom'll win the lottery.
I gestured for Bree to hurry the hell up. She rolled her eyes, put the bowl in the sink, kissed mom goodbye, and got her Nike string bag and threw me mine. Mom got up and stood in the door way and waved.
"Don't talk to strangers! Don't do drugs! And wait for Aaron!"
"Overprotective much." Bree said as she rolled her eyes and cracked a little smile. My mother laughed kinda nervously,
"Trust me. You'll appreciate it in the long run."
"Bye mom."
Bree and I walked towards Aaron's house which was like 3 minutes away from our house. We waited by this big tree by his house. After a few minutes, Aaron came out and waved and walked towards us.
"Hey guys."
"'Sup Aaron." Bree said.
"Hi." I said distractedly.
We started walking towards the school. While we walking, I couldn't help but feeling someone was stalking us. I kept turning around but no one was there. All the while neither of us noticed Aaron staring at this girl Annabeth. I didn't know Annabeth all that well even though she was in our French class and I had a free period with her. Nothing really stood out about her except her eyes. Piercing grey eyes like mine but her's are more inteligent and calculating. Kind of like an Owl's. Mine were more like of storm clouds.
"Grey like a storm cloud. Just like your father's" My mother often told me.
I couldn't help but cautiosly look around to make sure no one was staring at us. Too bad I didn't know about what was to come when reached doors to the school.
" Again I say, calm down. What the hell's wrong with you Mimi?" (Bree- besides my mom- was the only person on the freaking PLANET who I allowed to call me that) Bree said, rolling her eyes as she shook her head while I kept swiveling my head around like an idiot.
" I honestly don't know. I feel like when we go inside, were screwed."
"Well yeah, Bree said. Were not popular, we've got ADHD, Dyslexia, and annoying stuck up teachers who think they have the right to freaking boss us around for eight hours and tell us that "Its okay to have learning disabilities," She shook her head disgustidly .
"What is this, the 1950's?"
"And here I thought you were the bright, sunshiny, positive one." I mused.
Bree rolled her eyes. "I can't be positive all the time. I mean seriosly, NO ONE is like that!"
All the while neither of us noticed Aaron still staring nervously at Annabeth. As we got to the doors of the school, I couldn't help but feeling a wave of despair. I felt like today, of all days was going to permanently affect my life forever.
And this is the first chapter with the paragraphs somewhat better than before and hopefully a bit better:) thanks and please review=D
