My mother always told me to live life to the fullest, that she would always be there for me. Both her and my father would be there for me. I was six, then, before they left me. Both of them died in a fatal car accident. How was I supposed to live my life to the fullest. I would never be able to see them ever again. My life would never be full, without them. My life changed drastically after that I lived in a couple of foster homes before I was adopted in by the Baker family. I still kept my last name of course, but I resented them, while they resented me. I wasn't their ideal adopted child.
" Alexis, mom told me to wake you up, so wake up, you're going to be late, have fun walking" Lydia my 'sister' said. She was such a total bitch, like days such as today. I hated when she called be Alexis, I go by Alex now. Jamie my 'brother' probably turned my alarm off, last night. I looked at the clock; it was 7.50 am, only 15 minutes to get ready for the hell which they call school. Great looks like I'm going to be walking, I'll already be late for school anyways.
I lived in a town called Stevensville. I lived with my adoptive parents grace, Vincent and their son and daughter, Lydia and Jamie. Jamie was only 5 years old, while Lydia was my age. We were both 15 and in grade 10. We were both seniors at McAllister high. My personal hell for me and my friends, thanks to my dear and loving sister, Lydia. We were both total opposites. She hung out with the preppy and popular. While I hung out with my own crowd. I hung out with the Goths, we weren't exactly popular, more of like outcast and my sister made sure of that. Yea, i m pretty much your average, Goth or scene kid.
Jamie is the most annoying kid I've ever known, In my life. He's always trying to get me in trouble, that was what I call his hobby. Everyday he can come up with stuff to get me in trouble, for stupid stuff. Gawd.. i hate that kid. I had to watch him ever since he was in diapers and this is how he repays me. Man, I hate my life.
I was already out of bed and walking towards the bathroom to get ready for school. Usually I would be hurrying to get ready, but today I was already late, so I might as well take my time. But I had to make it in time for English class, or Mrs. Grayson would have my head. She always got mad if any student was late for her class.
I was straightening my hair with my sisters chi hair straigtner, in the upstairs bathroom. My hair was what you could call scene hair. The bottom half of my hair was long, while the rest were all layers, with my bangs hanging around my face. I didn't usually go for the whole big and puffy scene hair, I just liked to have it flat with a little bit of volume at the top. It would take to long to tease and hairspray my hair, anyway.
After I straightened my hair, I then went back to my room, to pick out my outfit. It didn't take long seeing as I only wore black shirts and dark wash jeans. Today my outfit consisted of a motley crue concert shirt and my favourite pair of black skinny jeans with a pair of black converse. Yea I basically wore mostly black. I wasn't known to wear pink frilly stuff. That used to be me, but not anymore. I topped my outfit with a couple of bracelets and rings and also coated my eyes with black eyeliner and shadow with mascara. I also added my mother's favourite necklace. It was hers before she died. It was her family's heirloom. She always told me that it would be passed down to the next daughter at the age of sixteen. But I got it before, because a kind officer retrieved it and handed it to me. He was amazed at how beautiful it was. I was amazed too. It was magnificent. It was beautifully crafted with a gold chain with a ruby stone pendent that glittered in the light. I never forgot to wear it. It was the only memory, I had of my mother, before she died.
I was already out the door with my black messenger bag and heading towards the school, when my cell phone rang. "Hello", I said on the third ring as I walked the rest of the way to my school.
" Alex, where are you, you're going to be late for English if you don't get your ass here .Mrs. Grayson will probably kill you if your late again", Vitoria said. Otherwise known as Vikki, she would kill anyone if someone ever called her by her first name. me and my best friend would alwayd taunt her with that and call her Victoria. She was my best friend ever since I moved here, aside from Dale, i tend to hang out with him more than vikkie, sometimes.
We just sorta clicked. We liked the same things, she was into the whole goth/scene faze. When i wasnt at my house, i would usally be found at her house or at Dales house.
" I think I know that Vikki, and I'll be at school in like 10 minutes. Gezz" I said while looking at my watch it only takes me fifteen minutes to get to school and 5 mins had already past.
"okay, see you at school, bye" and with that she hung up and I put my cell phone back in my messenger bag.
I was already behind when I got to the school. The bell for third period where I had English, was going to ring in any minute. I already went to my locker and dropped my bag there and had my books in my hand and was running in the halls towards my English class. I didn't even think while I rounded the corner and ran into someone.
A/N:this is just the beginning so its probably not the best..but it'll get better as i go along.
