I know I really shouldn't be working on another story especially since I haven't updated all the others especially Unattached. But the idea just struck me and I couldn't help it! I already have the next two chapters ready. I'm just hoping for reviews pretty please? This is just the early bits. it's not really good since I suck at intros but hope you like it :)
The school's old oak tree was the perfect place for her to be at, especially when the teacher decided to let the class off early for lunch. She walked to her destination at fast pace- eager to write down the words that were dancing around on her mind.
"Hey, slow down Miles. You're not that hungry are you?" Joe chuckled. She grinned at the sight of him and shook her head.
"Something on my mind" she told him.
"Ah isn't it always?" he said dramatically. "Well the principal is awaiting me. I shall speak to you the next time I see you madam. Fair thee well" he spoke in a British accent.
"Again?" she asked.
"Afraid so. What can I say? He loves me" he joked and nodded before heading towards the school office.
Miley shook her head in amusement and continued walking again quickly. As soon as she found her spot, she dropped her bag onto the ground and pulled out her notebook and pen. 10 minutes into it, the bell rang indicating it was lunchtime. People came and went as she scribbled mindlessly on her notebook. No one really bothered to ask what she was always writing about but she didn't mind. The buzzing noise of everyone talking around her finally eased her adrenaline rush. She reread her work and felt good. She loved it when she had ideas.
"Nice shirt, Stewart," someone laughed. She looked up to see Selena staring her down.
She responded with a simple smile and curtly said "Thank you"
Selena rolled her eyes and walked pass her towards her group of friends who were sitting just a few feet away. She watched as Selena whispered something to them and they burst out laughing and pointing at her worn out sneakers. She didn't mind though. It was just another day she's grown to have accepted. She diverted her attention to a copy of The Kite Runner popping out of her bag and took it out, picking off from where she left.
"Nick! Over here!" Selena called out.
Miley didn't bother to look up as he walked pass her and made his way towards the group. She knew how his bright brown eyes and charming smile attracted the girls, but she also knew how he had a reputation for being the school's troublemaker and in a way that's fairly different from his cousin, Joe. Despite his bad boy exterior, she knew he's not the person everyone thinks he is. She sees something good in everybody- even if it was hidden under layers and layers of cold hard cement. She just didn't see why he tries to hide it.
As she was reading through the pages of the book, she listened as Selena and her friends described how their previous night went. She didn't want to but she couldn't help it since their voices were loud enough for anyone to hear. Miley listened as the gang talked about the party Demi had at her house the previous night since her parents were out of town. Obviously the whole senior block- except Miley- was invited. She listened more and then learnt of how Harper got the swollen spots on her neck, which was very surprising because she didn't know Harper was that type and also the fact that Nick left the party with Selena earlier after a couple round of drinks. Other than that, Chad chugged 10 glasses of beer just to show Justin he doesn't get drunk easy when Tiffany and Hayden were busy making out after breaking up for 15 minutes. The biggest news of the night was about Demi hooking up with a guy named Trace who works at the tattoo parlor at the mall. Big deal is that he's 3 years older than any of them- not that age mattered anyway.
Miley smiled as she listened to them and pretended she was reading her book. No matter how much she didn't wanna listen, she couldn't deny that their stories were interesting. It really sounded like a typical teenage show full of gossips and life's mistakes- except this was reality. She looked at her watch and saw the time. 5 minutes till lunch was over. She packed her stuff and stood up, dusting dirt off her pants.
"So Nick, my parents are gonna be outta town tonight. You wanna come hang out?" was the last thing Miley heard before walking into the building.
My new semester just started so i'll have even less time to update. but i'm halfway done with the next chapter for Unattached, and the next chapter for this story is already done. I'll try to upload both asap (if my homeworks don't get in the way). reviews for updates? x ssurya :)
