OUTFITS ARE ON POLYVORE
I ONLY OWN SHAY MONTROSE
I am a little nervous for today. Today is the day that Atrians are coming to our school. When the Atrian ship crash landed, mine and my older twin brother, Grayson's older brother had died. Grayson and I had looked up to him. I was wearing a black Mexican aztec skull tank top with black leather pants, a green skull and crossbones belt, black high heeled combat boots and skull hand wrap chain. I was talking to Grayson and his best friend, Eric. I don't know why he's best friends with Eric, considering that he's an asshole. I could see that Grayson was zoning out because he was staring at a direction. I looked to see what he was staring at and it was Emery Whitehill. Oh, my God, she's back! I smacked Grayson's shoulder to get him back out of Emery-land. "You like her, do you?" I teased. "Not helping, Shay." he said, his cheeks heating up a bit. "Shay!" I heard then my arms were filled by hugging my best friend, Taylor Beechman. Sure, she may be a bitch, but once you know her, she's a total sweetheart. Plus, we're total opposites. She's more girly and I'm more punk rockish. "Hey, Tay." I said then we break the hug. "Isn't it a madhouse out there?" she asked. I just nodded. "Hey, they're here." a redhead said. Taylor and I looked at each other as we ran behind Eric and Grayson as we saw them. The Atrians.
Once we got to the school entrance, everybody was murmuring but I couldn't keep my eyes off of the muscular one. But mostly everyone was making fun of them and I feel really bad. I mean, why do they need to be treated like shit. Taylor has noticed this. "Shay!" she hissed, hitting my shoulder. "What?" I asked. Then she looked over at the muscular Atrian I couldn't keep my eyes off. "Holy shit, you like him, do you?" she asked. "Tay, I just saw him for only a few seconds." I hissed. "Even though he's an Atrian, you guys would seem like a hot couple." she said as we made our way to English Lit.
We were walking to English Lit then we saw Grayson with Emery. "Who is she?" Taylor asked. "You don't know Emery Whitehill?" I asked. "Oh my God, she's back?" Taylor asked. I nodded. "And Grayson's totally crushing on her." I said.
We made it to English Lit and we were doing the pledge. And by we, I mean everyone except the Atrians. I was sitting behind Emery and next to Taylor. "Hey, rumor is they have three penises. Small, medium and extra large." she whispered to Emery. "Taylor!" I hissed. "What? That's what I'm hearing." she said, too innocently. "Whatever you say, Taylor." I whispered. From the corner of my eye, I could see Eric being an asshole. By the way, Taylor is dating him. I turned to him. "Why are you dating the dick again?" I asked, whispering. "He's nice once you get to know him." she defended, whispering. "That'll be the day." I muttered. "Hey, that's enough. The Atrians are not required to pledge to the flag." our teacher said. That's what they're arguing about? The rest of the day had gone by quickly.
The next day, we were at lunch. I was wearing a white shirt that says Give The Children Some Punk Rock with black skinny jeans, black knee high converses, a black leather multi-chain bracelet, an evil cat eye crescent moon necklace and a silver skull ring. Taylor nudged me as I saw Emery. "Hey." Taylor said and we walked up to her. "It's Emery, right? You live over on Woodglen?" I asked. "Yeah." she replied. "Let me see your phone." Taylor said. Emery held out her phone and Taylor gave her the invite to a party that is going on. "There's a party at this abandoned farmhouse. You should come." she said. "Can I bring Lukas?" Emery asked. "Sure, yeah. if you guys are like, a package deal." Taylor said. I just slapped her arm with the back of my hand. "Tay, be nice!" I hissed. "We're friends." Emery reassured. "Oh, good. Because Grayson wasn't sure." Taylor said, nodding towards my twin brother. "Grayson...was...asking?" Emery said. Taylor and I looked at each other, smiling before nodding. "He's been talking about you all day." I said before we sat back down for lunch. From the corner of my eye, I saw Emery talking to that Atrian guy, Roman. Honestly, I think they would be cute together, but I don't want my brother to get hurt.
"You like talking to our girls there, Tattie? You think they're pretty?" I heard a mocking voice ask. It was Eric. "I was interested in joining her club, but she wouldn't have me." I heard Roman say. "Oh, well." Eric started. "Oh, don't feel bad. I just don't have an artistic bone in my body. " Roman sarcastically replied. "Do you have any bones in your body?" Eric asked. "Good point. Our skeletal system is made up of 10,000 centipedes holding hands, but that's Atrian secret number 145. How do you know that?" Roman asked as I saw the hot muscular Atrian, Drake and the bitchy Atrian, Teri standing up from their seats. Because I can sense Eric being a total asshole, I stood up as well. Eric was going on about how they play by our rules. "Wow, Eric. You just proved how bigger of an asshole than you already are." I said, sarcastically, sickly smiling. He just rolls his eyes because of my sarcasm. I just now glared at him before storming out of the cafeteria.
I was now in the choir room, singing Make Me Wanna Die by The Pretty Reckless.
You make me wanna die
I'll never be good enough
You make me wanna die
And everything you love will burn up in the light
Every time I look inside your eyes
You make me wanna die
"You know, you're really good." I heard. I looked up and it was Drake. My cheeks were a faint pink as I tuck my platinum blonde hair behind my ear. "Thanks. It's how I release my anger." I replied. "Drake, right?" I asked. He nods as he sat down next to me. "And you must be Shay?" he asked. I nodded. "How come you're not like…" he started but then trailed off. "Like Eric?" I asked. He nods. "I guess you can say that I'm not a cold, soulless person like he is. Honestly, I don't know why my brother is friends with him and I don't know why my best friend is going out with him." I explained. "I'm usually not good with this, but thanks." he said. "Hated that asshole since I met him." I said.
The next day, the day of the party, I was wearing a black shirt with skeleton arms with black and red tie dyed pants, a red cat eye crescent moon necklace and black and white Chuck Taylors. I was near my locker when I saw Eric and his other friends harass the short haired Atrian and Roman's sister, Sophia. "Hey! Leave her alone!" Roman exclaimed as I came up to Sophia. "You okay?" I asked. She nods. "You can't seem to get out of my way, can you?" Eric asked. "That's my sister." Roman growled. Then, all of a sudden, Eric starts to attack Roman. Sophia was exclaiming for help. "Eric, what the hell are you doing?!" I exclaimed. Some of the army guys had separated the guys. Once they left with Roman, I turned to Eric. "What the hell is wrong with you?" I asked before I stormed away.
I stormed towards one of my classes until Taylor saw me. "Shay, you okay? You seem pretty pissed." she said. "I'm fine, Tay. It's just that Eric gets me so pissed off." I said. "I'm sorry about him." she apologized. "I'm not mad at you, I'm mad at him." I said as we go to one of our classes.
I was walking with Grayson and Taylor and then we saw Emery. "Hey, you coming tonight, right?" Grayson asked Emery. "Yes, Grayson. You're gonna see her tonight." I told him for the millionth time and Taylor and I faced my brother. "God. Attempt to be cool. Even social newbies like Emery still like a little cool with their drool." Taylor says as we walked away. "God, doesn't that get annoying hearing him talk about her all the time?" Taylor asked. "Taylor." I said, glaring at her as her bitchiness is coming out. "What, I'm just asking." she said innocently. "It's a little annoying but I find it adorable." I said.
It was finally time for the party! I was wearing a black open shoulder crop top, a black and red plaid skirt, black ankle boots, a necklace with black roses and a ruby red heart and a raven ear wrap. Taylor saw me and handed me a drink. "Yay! You're here and you are looking hot!" she exclaimed. "Don't I always?" I asked sarcastically. We both laughed at that. Then I heard something. "Did you hear that?" I asked. "Hear what?" she asked. "It's coming from the woods." I said. "Shay!" Taylor exclaimed as I was walking in the woods. Then I heard the noise again. "I heard it too." she said. We turned a corner and it was one of my brother's friends, Brock. He was all tied up and he was gagged. We gasped. "Go get everyone." I told Taylor. She nodded as she ran to get everyone. That's when everyone came.
"Look what someone did to Brock." Taylor said. "Who did this? Huh, who did this?" Eric asked, roaring out. "We just want to have a little talk." I heard a familiar voice. I looked up and it was Drake. He took off his jacket, revealing him in a white tank top with dark jeans and shoes. "This ends tonight." Eric growls. "For once, we agree." Drake said before headbutting him. "Hey!" Grayson exclaimed as everyone gasped. "Drake!" I exclaimed as Drake punched Eric down. "Shay, come over here." I heard my brother say. I just ran over to my brother and he held an arm in front of me. "We're sick of it! You guys messing with us everyday! It's done! It's over! This is what's gonna happen if you keep messing with us, you hear me?!" Drake roared out. Honestly, I've never seen Drake that pissed before and it was kind of scaring me. Then when Drake went to attack again, Roman came out of nowhere and held him back.
"Roman, what are you doing here?" Drake asked. "Do you know what they'd do if they find you outside the sector?" Roman asked. "You should be fighting alongside with me instead of against me." Drake said. That's when I heard sirens. "Cops!" I exclaimed. I had ran towards the yellow jeep that was Eric's. Grayson and Taylor tried to get Emery to come with us but she ran off with Roman. Everyone was arguing before I yelled, "Guys, come on!" as Eric floored it as we sped off before I had one last glance at Drake.
