Slow Me Down

By: Hip Huggers

I know what your thinking it's another one of those sad stories where the girl loses her father, her boyfriend cheats on her, her mother marries a total loser who moves them to a far away land, she's a total snob, and by the end of it she realizes her mistakes. Yeah sure some of that happens, but there is much more to this story then that. This is the story of my life and all it's crazy twist and turns. Oh I forgot to mention my name, it's Nikki, Nikki Wood.

"Nikki?" the voice sounded so familiar.

"Nikki?" and it seemed to be getting louder, and closer too.

"Nikki?" now it was just getting annoying. I was wondering how my dream was becoming so life like, how the chocolate I was dreaming of knew my name.

"NIKKI?!" now it was screaming it. Just as I was about to dive into a chocolate pool my bedroom door swung open and in burst my worst nightmare.

"Nikki Elizabeth Kayla Mae Wood get your BUTT out of bed!" my mother. She was possibly the most annoying person in the world. She has long blonde hair, always wearing enough make-up to make a clown look sane, carries Fluffy Wuffy this bald cat around with her, and she's had so much work done that Barbie looks real. Ugh.

"I'm up, I'm getting up." I say making sure she sees the fact that I'm rolling my eyes at her. As I get out of bed I hear her let out this low exasperated sigh.

"Breakfast is ready. Oh and yeah before I forget I'm going out with your father tonight, so I need you to watch Selly." You've probably already figured out that Selly is my younger sister. If your wondering why they named her Selly, don't ask me 'cause I have no idea. Anyway Selly is the spitting image of my evil step father. Pitch black hair, long pointed noise and very evil, although she's very nice to me 'cause I'm her ig thither(Big Sister).

"He's not my father." I mumbled under my breath as I came out of my closet with my clothes for school. She obviously heard me because she rolled her eyes at me.

"I need to change, leave." my mother looked at me with one eye brow raised.

"Please." exaggerating the word. She left, I put on my sparkly outfit and went downstairs to get my breakfast.

"Morning! Gotta go met the girls." I said grabbing my bag, a piece of toast and a bottle of water. I'd walk you through my day but I don't want to bore you… all you need to no is that I'm very popular and that I stayed after school for soccer and cross country. You'll find out why that's important in the next chapter.
