Ring!!!!
The huge bell on the wall of the gym started to ring. Halleluiah. Thank you Jesus. School is over. For two whole days! Yes!!
If I weren't hurrying to get out of this place, I would bow down and kiss the ground. I knew not to got running towards the locker rooms because it would only repeat the events that happened previously this week aka my head smashing into the lockers.
I slowed my pace so that other people could pass by me. I waited until I was one of the last few into the crowd before stepping into the locker room. I got dressed as quickly as possible and headed towards my truck.
I slowly walked outside, great its raining again. No umbrella, wonderful. Guess its hood time. Ugh. That disgusting hood just drives me bananas.
I tried to walk a little faster so that my bad would get wet. Of course I couldn't manage a few steps without slipping and falling on my butt. Just great, I'm soaking wet, my butt is cold, and I can hear people laughing behind me.
"How you likin' da rain, girl?" Someone was moronically waving a hat in my face. Who ever it was moved in front of me, blocking my vision.
"Hey Mike" I said in the fakest voice that I could muster up. I need some new friends.
"Whats up?! I was hopping that if you weren't doing anything this weekend, we could..um..go see a movie or something?" He seriously did not just ask me that. Why could this guy just realized that I didn't want to go out with him.
"Nothing really Mike but I don't think I can go out with you. I'm really busy this weekend." I emphasized the "really" part. Maybe he could take the hint.
"Oh ok, maybe I could give you a ride home on Monday next week or we could see a movie next week?" He was so sweet. Now I really needed some new friends.
"Look Mike, to be honest with you, I don't date guys. Sorry I'm gay" I needed a quick excuse. Mike looked like he just heard that the sun never existed. He was dumbfounded. Poor baby.
"Oh ok" He said rubbing the back of his neck. I took a chance and raced to my car.
I made it. Home. Yes. And I only slipped once on the stairs to the front door. Alright. Time to make dinner. I wonder what Charlie is in the mood for? Hmm. Well I feel like Italian maybe? Yep Italian it is.
Shut up head! Maybe I needed to be checked out.
Half an hour later I had dinner ready. I usually eat with my book. Currently I was reading Wuthering Heights. It is such a brilliant book. I love how they're such horrid people but their love always shines through. Does that even make any sense. The other voice in my head replied. Yes it makes sense, Bella. Just some people don't understand.
BEEP BEEP BEEP!
Not again. Damn alarm clock. Oh great. Its Saturday, the day when Angela wanted me to go shopping with her. Oh joy.
About 45 minutes later after I had gotten ready, Angela beeped her horn outside.
"I swear if I hear another beeping noise, I'm going to pull out every strand of my hair."
"What? You had some unpleasant experiences with beeping sounds?" Angela laughed.
"Don't even get me started." I signed
"Wasn't going to."
I leaned over to put on some music to avoid an awkward silence. (A/N I don't know the radio stations in Washington) I found a station with some decent music.
"Wow, I haven't heard this song in forever." Angela started jumping up and down to the beat of the music.
Let me hear you say hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Alright, now let me hear you say hey hey ho
Hey hey ho
I hate it when a guy doesn't get the door
Even though I told him yesterday and day before
I hate it when a guy doesn't get the tab
And I have to pull my money out and that looks bad
Where are the hopes? Where are the dream?
My Cinderella story scene?
When do you think they'll finally see?
That you not, not, not gonna get any better
You won't, won't, won't you won't get rid of me never
Like it or not even she's a lot like me
We're not the same
And yeah, yeah, yeah I'm a lot to handle
You don't trouble, I'm a hell of a scandal
Me, I'm a scene, I'm a drama queen
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen
Alright, alright
Yeah
I hate it when a guy doesn't understand
Why a certain time of month I don't want to hold his hand
I hate when they go and we stay in
And they come home smelling like their ex-girlfriends
I found my hopes, I found my dreams
My Cinderella story scene
Now everybody's gonna see
That you're not, not not gonna get any better
You won't, won't, won't, you won't, get rid of me, never
Like it of not, even though she's a lot like me
We're not the same
And yeah, yeah, yeah I'm a lot to handle
You don't know trouble, I'm a hell of a scandal
Me, I'm a scene, I'm a drama queen
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen
Give me an A! Always give me what I want
Give me a V! Be very very good to me
R! Are you gonna treat me right?
I! I can put up a fight?
Give me an L! Let me hear you scream loud
Let me hear you scream loud
One, two, three, four!
Where are the hopes? Where are the dream?
My Cinderella story scene?
When do you think they'll finally see?
That you're not, not not gonna get any better
You won't, won't, won't, you won't, get rid of me, never
Like it of not, even though she's a lot like me
We're not the same
And yeah, yeah, yeah I'm a lot to handle
You don't know trouble, I'm a hell of a scandal
Me, I'm a scene, I'm a drama queen
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen
Let me hear you say hey hey hey
Hey Hey Hey
Alright, now let me hear you say hey hey ho
Hey hey ho
Hey hey Hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
I'm the best damn things that your eyes have even seen
-The best damn thing , Avril Lavigne
I love that song. It certainly brightened up our spirits. On all of the "hey" we jumped like cheerleaders. It was so much fun.
"Oh my god. That was so awesome" Angela could barely speak from laughing so hard.
"Oh yeah. I know where your coming from"
After a few more upbeat, fun songs we arrived at the mall. When we walked in, they were playing The Best Damn Thing again. We couldn't contain ourselves and starting running around, flailing our arms and they air and dancing like cheerleaders. People started to stare and looked at us like "What in the hell are they doing."
Whatever. At least I don't look that stupid because my friend is doing it to.
I laughed along with Angela and kept dancing. Our happy mood remained all day and I actually had fun. Wow, my first fun shopping trip. After a few hours of shopping we decided to go and get some lunch.
"So Bella, I know that we have known each other for a while but I don't really know you." Angela asked while we were in the food court line.
"Yeah I understand. I'm not really the interesting of a person. You are probably my only friend. I live with my dad. I like to read. That's all there is to know about me." I answered honestly. I am not really that cool of a person.
"Ok, well. You know about me. My dad is the local lawyer and mom doesn't work. I like to read also. I have a little brother, but I would rather not talk about him. You said that you lived with your father. What abut your mom? Do you have any siblings?"
"No, I don't have any siblings. My mom left my father and I a long time ago. I barely remember her. Her name is Renee."
"Renee? Where have I heard that name before? Renee Swan right?" Angela seemed to be hiding something.
"Did your parents know her or something?" I said
"Oh, I don't know. But I know that I've heard that name before."
We ordered and sat down at a small table with our food. I had ordered a salad and she ordered a sandwhich.
"Hey Ange, I'm going to go to the bathroom." I got and started to walk in the direction of the signs that said "Restrooms."
Bella, don't do anything to loose this one. She seems very nice and trustworthy. I was so busy lecturing myself that I didn't notice that I had walked into a wall. Or what seemed like one.
"Woah there scout. Watch where you're going." A voice said.
I looked up to see that I had collided into a hard chest. It was a guy, probably older than me. He was huge. At least 6 feet. He looked Native American and had a cute smile. He gave me a once over and started to speak.
"Hi, my name's Jacob."
