Two: Lexxi's bad day
Lexxi's P.O.V.
I made it to school five minutes before the bell rang. ''Phew that was way too close'' I muttered as I opened my locker and started grabbing my books.
''Lexxi!'' I turned around just in time to get the life squeezed the life out me ''ugh, May!'' May was one of people I met when I came to New York and she became one of my best friends.
She loved art, was crazy about candy, and was hyper all the time and knew how to make me and my other friend Haley laugh. She had dirty blonde hair tied back in a ponytail, light blue eyes, and was wearing a long sleeved grey top, torn jeans, and chuck tailors.
''Ok, ok May I get it, now put me down'' ''yeah May don't crush her to death''. I looked up and saw my other friend, Haley(the one who called me) and she was the complete opposite of May she was soft spoken, sometimes shy,but she was always there when we needed her.
She had short black hair, hazel eyes and was wearing her favorite blue blouse, with a skirt, grey leggings, and flats.
''Whoops sorry Lex'' May said as she put me down, ''so where were you?'' ''yeah your'e usually the first one here''.
''Well you see my brother…''
the bell rang interrupting me and Haley sighed, ''looks like we'll have to talk about it later'' ''meet you at lunch Lex?'' asked May ''yeah meet you guys there'' they smiled at me and went to class.
It took me a few more minutes but I finally shut my locker and raced off to English class before I was even more late. By the time lunch came around, I really wasn't having a good day. I was two minutes late for my English class and my teacher gave me a 10 page essay to write, I broke two strings on my violin and lost my sheet music for my guitar in music class, and I kept getting pelted with balls when we were playing dodgeball and in gym. So you can see why I wasn't in a good mood.
My hair was a mess and I had red marks on arms from where I got hit in dodge balls. I walked into the cafeteria and grabbed some food ''Lexxi! over here!'' I smiled a little when I saw May and Haley waving at me and so I grabbed a tray with and apple, a sandwich, and a soda walked over to sit with them.
May smiled when she saw me and moved over a little, ''hey Lexxi…whoa what happened?'' I sighed, ''I'm not having a real good day'' ''well what happened?'' asked Haley, I told everything that had happened ''yeah that's a bad day alright'' May said taking a sip of her soda. Haley shook her head ''don't worry Lexxi it'll get better'' I sighed again, ''yeah I know oh and not only that but my brother made me late because he wanted me to watch Animaniacs with him''.
They stared at me for a minute ''Animaniacs? oh yeah I remember that'' ''I LOVE THAT SHOW!'' May screamed loudly as people kids turned and stared at us.
Haley shook her head while I rolled my eyes
''yeah Animaniacs''
''that show is so cool! don't you love it Lexxi?''
''used to…but I don't watch it anymore''.
''Why not?'' I looked down at the ground ''because I've outgrown it'', I looked down at the ground and held my necklace ''and I used to watch it with my parents…'' Haley gasped ''oh Lexxi we had no idea'' she reached over and gave me a hug, ''I'm sorry Lexxi I had no idea…'' and May reached over to ''it's ok guys you didn't know'' ''It'll get better Lex I promise'' said Haley and I each gave them a small smile.
Then the bell rang we all walked out of the cafeteria and walked to art class, the only class we had together ''hopefully nothing will go wrong in art that's the last thing I need today'' I muttered. Haley gave me a small smile ''don't worry Lexxi it'll be fine'' I just nodded.
She and May headed into the classroom and I was about to follow, only to have the door slam shut in front of my face. I muttered a curse and opened the door only to come face to face with the meanest girls in school, Casey Wright and her little band of followers twins Taylor and Caroline Jones laughing at me.
Casey was mean and was a snob, her long brown hair hanged over her shoulders, and she was wearing a black top with skin tight jeans while Taylor had her black hair in a bun and was wearing a top with sweatpants, and Caroline was wearing shorts with leggings and a light blue top. I glared at them
''Oops sorry Lex didn't see you there''
''sure you didn't…''
I walked past them, but Casey got in front of me again and blocked my way ''you know, you can't just ignore people when there apologizing Alexandra'' I glared at her. She knew I hated people using my full name and she was just doing it to push my buttons.
But before I could say anything… ''girls that is enough!'' our art teacher, Mr. Thompson, walked in glaring at us Taylor and Caroline had raced to sit down so it was just me and Casey. ''If you two are done I'd would appreciate if you take your'e seats!'' we nodded, and Casey gave me a hard glare before turning to sit down and I went to sit down to. Mr. Thompson sighed as the bell finally rang and went to his desk and the turned to stare at us ''I hope all of you have finished your projects take them out, I will come around and grade them''.
Mr. Thompson had given us an assignment where we had to paint, draw, or sketch something that we really liked, did, or have seen recently in our lives.
Everyone went to their art lockers, and I pulled out my painting. I was really proud of my latest project it was painting of Boston, with the sun rising over the city limits.
I brought it over to my work table and sat down as I waited for Mr. Thompson to come over to look at it ''Ms. Conner? your project?'' I smiled as I handed it to him and he snatched from my hands, and I waited for his critique and for I was hoping would be a good grade.
''hmm interesting'' he said as he threw it back down my work desk, ''d minus'' I stared at him in shock.
''What?'' ''you heard me, this just isn't your best work so d minus'' ''but…I worked so hard…''
''apparently not hard enough Ms. Conner, d minus'' and with that he walked away.
Was he kidding? I spent so much time on that painting! and he said it wasn't my best work? ''could this day get any worse?'' I looked up and saw Casey looking at me with a smug look on her face she got up from her desk and walked over to me''aww poor Alexandra got an D minus'' ''leave me alone Casey'' I muttered.
She ignored me and snatched the painting out of my hands ''give it back'' ''hmm he was right this isn't your best work'' I stood up and glared at her ''give it back Casey'' ''why should I?'' I try to reach over and take it from her, ''Taylor catch!'' she threw it to Taylor, and then Taylor tossed it to Caroline. ''Are you kidding me? how did Mr. Thompson not see that?!''
''I said give it back!'' they laughed at me and Caroline tossed it back to Casey, but she didn't catch it in time and it landed in a paint bucket. Casey took it out of the paint bucket and looked at my painting that was covered with black paint.
''Oh well it was a stupid painting anyway'' she handed it back to me and started laughing. I couldn't believe it I put so much work into it and now it was ruined. That's when I snapped,
''you little brat!'' I tackled Casey and started beating her up Mr. Thompson raced over to us and pulled us apart
''what is going on here?!''
''she messed up my painting!''
''I did not! I was just coming over to make sure you were ok and then you attacked me!''
''that's not true you brat! you know what you did!''
''Ms. Conner that is enough!'' Mr. Thompson shouted. He sighed ''I cannot allow this behavior I'm sorry Ms. Conner, but I will have to fail you and you must come with me to the principals office''. ''But…'' ''now Ms. Conner''
…
A few hours later I sat outside the principals office. When I told him my side of the story, and of course he didn't believe me. He called Aaron and they've been
talking ever since. ''This has got to be the worst day ever'' the door opened and Aaron came out
'' I…'' ''it's ok Lex let's just got home''. A few minutes later we driving home
''Aaron I swear I didn't start anything, it was Casey she…''
''I believe you''
''really? of course Lex your my sister I know you better than that and I tried to tell that principal of yours, but he wouldn't listen and said you were suspended for a week''.
''What?!''
''I'm sorry Lex'' I sighed and looked out the window. When we got home I went to my room and slammed the door behind me. I sighed and laid down on my bed, ''this is officially the worst day ever''.
I hugged my pillow and grabbed the picture on my nightstand it was a picture of me, Aaron and my parents at a baseball game two years ago. I smiled a little as I remembered the good times.
When I learned to play guitar, and when I started drawing, when Aaron got his internship, my mom's compassion, my dad's humor and when we would all sit in front of the Tv and watch Animaniacs. ''Would things be different now if they were still around?'' I sighed and hugged the picture to my chest ''oh mom, dad I miss you so much…''
I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard a knock on my door.
''Lexxi? can I come in?''
''leave me alone Aaron'' he came in anyway, and sat down next to me on my bed.
I turned away from him,
''I said leave me alone''
''come on Lex talk to me'' I turned and stared at him,
''Aaron I just wanna be left alone right now''
''Lex I know you've had a tough day and everything, but that's no reason to sulk in your room all night''.
''It's not just that''
''…mom and dad?'' I nodded,
''yeah'' he took the picture out of my hands and looked at it.
''I miss them to Lexxi but they would want us to be happy''
''I don't see how without them here''
Aaron sighed and gave me a small smile ''Lexxi everything's gonna be fine''
I looked away from him
''come on, I think I have a way to cheer you up''
''if it's Animaniacs, I don't wanna watch it''
''Lexxi…'' no stupid show is gonna make any of this better!''
''Lexxi I…''
''just leave me alone Aaron! you don't understand Aaron your not mom and dad!''
as soon as I said those words I instantly regretted it
''Aaron…I…'' ''no it's ok Lexxi I'll leave you alone'' and stormed out of the apartment. ''What did I just do?'' I got angry at myself and threw my pillow across the room. I sunk down on the ground and hugged my knees to my chest.
''Aaron…I'm sorry''
…
It's been a few hours since Aaron walked out.I was really getting worried now and when I looked out my window it looked like it was going to pour any minute.
''I guess I should go look for him''
I grabbed my keys, and my jacket and went up to the roof where Aaron hangs out sometimes.
''Aaron?''
thunder roared through the sky ''well since I'm out here I might as well check out the tv satellite before the storm gets worse'' I walked over and started to mess with the satellite. And that's when my life changed. Just then, lightening struck the satellite shocking me. I tried to pull away, but I was caught in the wires. The only thing I could do was scream and then everything went black.
