A/N: Alright, so here is chapter 2. I changed some details in chapter 1 because I read over it and it didn't really make sense. So, if you've already ready, take a sec to look back.
Btw, I might do more than 1 character POV but I haven't decided yet.
Thanks! =D
P.S.- This chapter is long because the last one was so short.
*5 months earlier*
Bree's POV
Beep...Beep...Beep...
I groaned in frustration at the sound of my alarm clock. I hit the Off button and laid back down in bed, staring at the ceiling. First day of school. My stomach churned at the thought. I was only 16 and going into junior year. At least I'll get to see Adam. I haven't seen him in forever. I guess he was just busy. I sighed but I still felt sick. I've been an outcast for my whole life (you know, except for the fact that I have Adam.) Now I was just going to be messed with more because I skipped a grade.
Supposedly, freshman year is supposed to be the hardest but it was so easy it was almost fun. So I skipped Sophmore year and went right to Junior year. Sometimes I wish life was easier and people were more mature. I mean, do the jocks and cheerleaders really need to pick on the smart kids or the "band nerds". (I'm not saying all schools are like this. I'm just fortunate enough to have gotten the one school that is bias like that.)
Well, might as well get up. I thought with a sigh as I walked into the bathroom and took a quick shower. I got dressed in a simply dark purple v-neck shirt, black skinny jeans, black converse, and hooded pleather jacket. (Yes, I like black and dark colors. But growing up with a guy for a best friend will do that to you. Besides that, I hate shopping, make-up, fashion, etc.) Speaking of which... I pulled out my phone and sent a text to Adam.
Bree: Hey, are you ready for school?
I put my phone in my pocket and headed downstairs. The house was silent and my dad's car keys were gone. He never even says bye to me before he leaves anymore. In fact, the last time he said more than 5 words to me in a row was... before mom died. I shook the thought away and grabbed the keys to my white 1978 Jeep. (The only reason I have a car or a drivers licence is because my dad is a police officer and he leaves to word early so he can't drive me in the morning, and school is too far away to walk. I used to get rides from Adam but my dad doesn't like him so as soon as I turned 16 he took me to get my drivers licence and my car. Which I love, btw.)
Buzz...buzz...buzz...
I smiled and pulled out my phone, opening the text from Adam.
Adam: yup
I raised an eyebrow at my phone. One word?
Bree: wat, no energy this morning? ;P
...
Adam: had last min. football practice yesterday
There was football practice yesterday? Huh... Well, he wouldn't lie to me so I shrugged.
Bree: oh, well I hve a surprise 4 u.
Adam: Oh...ok
I sighed at his lack of enthusiasm and grabbed my(you guessed it) black backpack, walking out the front door. I locked it behind me and when I got to my car I threw my bag in the passenger seat. The radio turned on, and "Remember When by Chris Wallace" came threw the speakers. I smiled and pulled out of my driveway, and started to sing along:
So can we push push push rewind,
Go go back in time,
When we were kids sneaking bottles of wine,
Take take take me back, I wanna go back,
Back to what we had! Do you remember when we started this mess,
My heart was beating out of my chest!,
Remember when we stole your dad's car,
I never thought we'd take it that far,
Oh we were flying so high, yeah partners in crime,
So why'd we ever say good bye?,
Remember when we, when we, had it all
Do you remember when...
I'm hanging by a thread,
I'm tearing at the seams,
Holding on to what we used to be! and I should let you go...
But I just won't give up up up up up up up!
Push push push rewind,
Go go back in time,
When we were kids sneaking bottles of wine,
Take take take me back, I wanna go back,
Back to what we had! Do you remember when we started this mess,
My heart was beating out of my chest
Remember when we stole your dad's car,
I never thought we'd take it that far,
And we were flying so high, yeah partners in crime,
So why'd we ever say good bye?,
Remember when we, when we, had it all!
Do you remember when?
The radio station went into the talk show for most of the ride to school but I didn't mind it. After a while it started another song and I sang quietly while I drove.
"Paradise by Coldplay"
When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach so
She ran away in her sleep
And dreamed of
Para-para-paradise, Para-para-paradise, Para-para-paradise
Every time she closed her eyes
When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
And the bullets catch in her teeth
Life goes on, it gets so heavy
The wheel breaks the butterfly
Every tear a waterfall
In the night the stormy night she'll close her eyes
In the night the stormy night away she'd fly
And dreams of
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
She'd dream of
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh-oh
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
And so lying underneath those stormy skies
She'd say, "oh, ohohohoh I know the sun must set to rise"
This could be
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
This could be
Para-para-paradise
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
This could be
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
This could be
Para-para-paradise
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh-oh
The song ended and I pulled into the parking lot. Well, here's goes nothing... i thought as my stomach twisted again. I parked my car and jumped out, walking towards the front office. I got my schedule, avoiding the accusing gaze of the woman behind the desk. Is it so hard to belive that I skipped a grade? I sighed after I left and began to look for my home room. I already knew my way around school from freshman year. I found it quickly and walked in, handing my letter to the teacher explaining my grade skip. He simply smiled and handed me back the paper.
"Bree?" I knew the voice in an instant and my smile grew 3 times bigger. I turned around to meet Adam's shocked face. "Hey look at that. It's the kill-joy. Surprise! I skipped a grade." His expression changed from one of shock to confusion to... horror and my smile disappeared. "Whats wrong?" I asked suddenly nervous. Then there were footsteps behind me and I turned around. "Hey Adam." said a guy in a group of 4 guys and 4 girls (I'm guessing football players and cheerleaders.) The guy in front looked down at me. Literally. Adam was 6'2" so this guy had to be the same height, if not a little taller. (Well, all of them were taller than me but you get what I mean.)
"Is there a reason you're in my way?" I took a step back from him and bumped into Adam, making one of the girls giggle. Seriously... I looked back at Adam, silently asking him to explain who I was. "Adam, do you know this loser?" My eyes widened but Adam's expression had become emotionless and a smirk crept onto his face. What the... "Nah, just some girl." With that heart crushing statement he pushed past me and the group walked to the back of the class. I think I heard Adam say "Did you see her eyes? What a freak." I clenched my jaw shut to stop the oncoming tears. Adam knew how insecure I was about my eyes. So when did he stop being my best friend?
Uh...I'm sorry. Did i miss something?
A/N: So there it is. Hope you liked it. I'm hoping now that you kind of get the flow of the story then there will be some reviews. Anyway, I need to study for an exam this week so I'll try to have the next chapter up this weekend. That is... if I get an idea. Also, everything I'm writing is relevant. This is a Chronicle fanfic so it is about Chronicle. I'm getting there. So be patient with me.
Btw, don't forget to follow and favorite. :3
