xX... Ok, hope you weren't too offended from last chapter! This one skips to
Winter Break. Whatever the name is beside is the POV it's being told from
(or journal or w/e). Read on! R&R! ...xX
Xo.... KATIE .... JOURNAL
This weekend was the first of winter break! It was amazing! Zack and I are back to being 'just friends'. Fuck that! Anyways... Today we went, just him and me, to New York City. It was crazy. We saw this funky musical called BARE. It was about these kids at some school and one of 'em was gay. 'ORIGINAL', I know. So, but there was this great song. I'm in heaven: ZACK BOUGHT ME THE ALBUM! My love and best friend spent money on me, good thing! These are the lyrics.
Remember back in 7th grade?
Endless games of truth or dare,
Double dates in dark arcades?
When I close my eyes I'm there,
I think my mother took this pictures,
Back when we are all just friends,
Memories that fade and flicker,
Burn again when I pretend,
Life is short, and life is strange,
Trouble now and troubled past,
Times just change, they rearrange,
And little girls grow up so fast,
Feel it how it grows inside me,
Swirling ball of anguished cries,
Haunted- daunted- so unwanted,
Feel it's anger in my rise,
Dream a dream,
Then start another,
Life is there to disappoint,
Will someone out there call my mother,
Look at me, mom, all grown up.
Good catholic girl,
Her soul was saved,
But now, of course, it comes to this,
If only I had just behaved or only stopped at just 'a kiss'
It hits me, paralyzing shutter, face the music, take a bow,
Just another unwed mother,
One more sad statistic now!
Dream a dream,
Then start another,
Life is there to disappoint,
Will someone out there call my mother,
Look at me, mom, all grown up.
Little lies and big decisions,
Who to tell, and where to go?
Follow someone else's vision,
Or trust my own, cuze I don't know!
Am I supposed to love this child?
Is it just that simple then?
Tell me how this change should happen!
Tell me how, tell me when!
YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!
Dream a dream,
Then start another,
Life is there to disappoint,
Will someone out there call my mother,
Look at me, mom, all grown up.
Deep huh? I started to cry, I leaned my head on Zack's shoulder, he didn't mind! I want Zack more than ever! I think he's seeing now. But, oh no, Summer comes to school after winter! Zack HAS decided to go to Cornell! My best friend! He told me at lunch. We stopped at Virgin Records, I got a CD, and we went everywhere. It was so cool! I love New York! Anyway, something really cool happened! Guess who we saw in the city? DEWEY god damn FINN!
It was so weird! He sorta smiled, and nodded, and then we talked for a while. It was awkward. Sorta like when we saw Summer for the first time again. Zack took up guitar again. I forgot for, like, ten seconds how much he rocks my world. When we got back some guy asked me to the prom again, I mean, I don't even know them! What the hell do they see in me? Is it my boobs? Gotta go! Zack's calling!
Ox... Freddy ... journal
I did it, I actually did it. I ran away. AND IT TOOK ME THIS LONG? God! Anyway, I hitch-hiked my way all the way to New York City. As I was wandering around I thought I saw Zack. I yelled but he didn't hear me. Who was that girl he was with? I'm off to find George Clooney! And myself! Lata
xX... OK, I realize that this chapter was short-ish and dumb and bad, it's a big turning point for the story so just working with me! K? ps- thanks to BARE the musical for providing me with the song: All Grown Up (citied by Katie above) and the inspiration for the story. Lot's more to come! Keep reading and reviewing and thanks SO much!!! Peace out! ...xX
