Paradise

You know those typical stories about true love, they saw each other from a distance and boom, they were in love. Well that's not exactly how it happened for us.

*10 years ago*

Hello, I am Regina Mills. Daughter of Cora Mills, one of two children that she had with my dad , let's not talk about the children with her previous partners. Sorry lost focus, let's get back on track. My older sister's name is Zelena. I know what you're thinking, weird names. They are not your typical girl names, but my mother wanted our names to be unique like we would be. Her words , not mine. I am pretty average , if you tell me. Especially , walking through the halls of Storybrooke highschool. On each side you see girls and boys with the latest fashion trends, acting like they are all that. That's not me , I'd rather just stay on the background, I will do my thing. But rather do it out of the spotlight.

My best friend's name is Mary-Margaret. The teachers put me together with her when she was new in school for an assignment. Of course with me , because the "popular" girls , thought she was weird. Their definition of weird is someone who is the complete opposite of them. In other words, normal, not mean and isn't that into brands or fashion for that matter. But she was actually really sweet and we liked some of the same stuff.

So as you could say a friendship was born that day. 3 years later , here we are. Still annoying each other to this day. Highschool isn't exactly easy for people like us. As in us , I mean , people who are themselves and don't pretend to be anyone else for popularity. We are classified as weird in our school , but I have friends, that care for me. That's what matters and we will survive this horrible experience, called high school , together.
