Chapter 1
The splash of water made the grogginess disappear. It was cold and sedated her unawareness making her more alert.
She looked at her reflection in the mirror dissatisfied with the face she saw. Her own, plain Jane she sees others like her friend Ray had told her she had an unique look. Long blonde wavey hair to which she had found irritating and a tangled mess. Pale skin that would never darken no matter how long her and Ray would sun bathe. Her flawless skin blemish free but it was strange for there to be such a pale girl in sunny Lyle town. The only pretty attribute about her was her red pouty lips, she wore no lipstick it was if her lips were stained red. Her straight petite nose that led up to her unusual light blue eyes. They were creepy so she hid them behind non prescription glasses. It was a way for her to hide from the world or more like high school.
The alarm went off reminding her that she needed to leave. Wrapping her hair in a ponytail and grabbing whatever clothes were clean she scurried out of the house with only a piece of toast.
Ray was waiting outside of his house impatiently for her. So she honked startling him, he then proceeded to flip her off.
"What took so long?" He asked irritatedly, throwing his bag in the back of her baby.
"Hey watch the leather!" She said defensive of her baby. Sure her car may be old but she had fixed her up herself, so she was proud.
"God Chlo your such a guy" he said laughing.
She just shook it off, all her life she has always been one of the guys. But that's what happens when you've been raises by your older brother.
"So I hear we have some new kids transferring" Chloe remembered the loud banging and cars last night. That must of been them...her new neighbors.
"Yeah I think they must of moved in last night...they were loud" she said grimacing.
Ray went on about hoping they were girls, and then about how he'd have a scandalous love affair with each one of them.
"One day your going to find a girl you really like, and then screw yourself over with all the bad reputation you've gained" Ray was really good looking, with his blonde hair and green eyes. Despite his golden boy looks he was a real player. He had the cheer leading team at each others throats last year causing them the championships, and they still fought over him.
"Yeah that is if I can find that one girl that could sedate all of this" he said winking at her. That's why they were good friends, they never felt anything for one another except for friendship. He's seen her at her worst and she's seen him at his. Been together since they were toddlers. Best friends.
"Oh get over yourself Casanova" chloe said laughing.
