Welcome To My Messed Up Life
Chapter 2
Meeting New Faces with a Fight
It was now the first day of school. The one place I could get away from everything in my life. I smiled to myself. It was the only good place that I actually liked being. It was really and truly the best place in the entire world.
I looked at my schedule and saw that my next class was 11th grade Advanced English then it was time for lunch. I was suppose to meet up with Ali at lunch but after hearing her hang out with Jenna I told her I'd pass and try to get to know other people.
I promised myself I wasn't going to become friends with anybody, but since I was already friends with Ali I thought it wouldn't hurt to become friends with anybody else. If anything it gave me an excuse to not hang out with her and Jenna. Sometimes you just got to go with the flow.
I walked into my class and sat in a seat not paying attention to were I was sitting. I finally looked up and saw that I was sitting behind some dude all dressed in black. Oh great. What a great way to start my school year I told myself sarcastically. I really didn't want to be involved with him for sure. He was the bad boy type and I was done with those kind.
"Alright class, this year your going to have partners. I'm going to call out your partners." Mrs. Dawes said and started calling off names. I didn't listen til she said my name. "Clare Edwards and Eli Goldsworthy." She said and I groaned knowing I had a dude for a partner. I looked over at Adam who I had met earlier.
"Hey Adam, who is that?" I ask him and he pointed to the guy in front of me. "You have got to be kidding me." I told him and he shook his head.
"No I'm not kidding. He's not that bad. He's one of my friends." He told me whispering it to me since I was whispering to him right now. Adam was cool and my only friend as of right now besides Ali, who I didn't wanna hang out with. "You still eating lunch with me and my friends?" He ask me talking loud now. I nodded. "Cool." He said and went back to his work.
"Now," Mrs. Dawes said getting me out of my thought, "I want you and your partner to get to know each other. You have the rest of the period to do so. Go and find your partner." She told us and Eli turned to Adam.
"Yo Adam, who is this Clare Edwards girl?" He ask him and that was when I noticed his green eyes. They were a pretty green but I had done promised myself no guys this year. After my luck with them I'm not going there again. Who knows though, there's always room for change.
"That would be me." I told him holding my hand up a little. Adam started laughing a little. "What is so freaking funny? I swear you guys here are more weird then at my old school."
"Ah, so your new here. So what was your old school like?" Eli ask me and I just rolled my eyes. Then he changed the question. "Better yet why are you here?" I hated saying why so I lied to him a little.
"My mom just wanted a fresh start." I told him and he nodded his head like he understood. I just rolled my eyes at this.
"Divorced parents I get it." He told me and I wanted to slap him right there. I don't know if its cause he kinda guessed it right, or cause it wasn't exactly the truth.
"No my parents aren't divorced." I told him with anger in my eyes. I didn't want people knowing about my life at home. It wasn't any of there business. "So you got any siblings?" I ask him changing the subject.
"Yea, I have a little sister who is in the second grade." He told me and I laughed. "Oh no don't tell me you have a little brother in there too. If he makes a move on her I'm killing his ass now. Just letting you know."
"No, I don't have a brother in the second grade. I do have a sister in the second grade and one in the eighth grade and another in the twelfth grade." I told him and his eyes kinda came out of his head at how many of us there were. Just then Darcy came in.
"Clare I have to go pick up Brianna from school. She got in a fight with another little girl there. I swear she needs to learn to control her anger. Do you think you and Maddi can make it home alright?" She ask me and I nodded my head. Eli jumped in all of a sudden.
"Don't worry about it. I can get them home safe and sound if need to be." Eli told her and she nodded her head. I just rolled my eyes.
"No worry's Darce. We can mange. Were big girls." I told her and she smiled. Just then she frowned at me at the same time.
"Just make sure your careful. She hasn't came crying to me just yet, but I'm pretty sure she will sooner or later. Holly J has a sister in her grade and Holly J can be pretty mean, so I'm sure her sister can too." Darcy told me and I sighed. Not again with this. Then Adam chimed in.
"No I've meet her sister and she's as sweet as can be. Holly J is going out with Declan who is the twin brother to my girlfriend. No worry's there." He told us with a smile. I sighed with relief. Then Darcy was off to go get Brianna.
"So anything you want to tell us about your family?" Eli ask me and I gave him a death glare. I didn't like talking about my family at school.
"No I can't really stand my family and this is the one place I can get away from it all. Nobody at this school is finding anything out about my personal life with my family." I told him with my arms crossed. He smirked at me.
"Is that a challenge?" He ask me and I gave him another one of my death glares.

It was finally time for lunch and I couldn't wait to go eat. I would finally get to meet the rest of Adam's little group. It made me smile knowing I had friends that I didn't even try for. I didn't want friends but got them anyway. My mom would be proud to know I'm normal. Not that she cares.
"Hey Clare were over here." I heard Adam's voice. He sat with three girls and it looked like Sav and some other dude. Weird how there were that many of them. Then I noticed Eli over there too. Great, just great. "Clare this is my girlfriend Fiona, her twin brother Declan, his girlfriend Holly J, her best friend Anya, and her boyfriend Sav." He told me and I smiled.
"So Sav, you not gonna go sit with Peter and the others?" I ask him and everybody gave me some shock looks. I guess it was weird for me to know him. Figure that one out.
"Nope, but Peter seemed pretty upset when your sister didn't show up for lunch." He told me and I laughed stealing one of Eli's grapes that I forgot to get myself. He didn't seem to mind. "So why aren't you sitting with Ali and the others?"
"Cause there sitting over there. Oh and Darcy had to go pick up Brianna since she decided to get in a fight with some other little girl. I swear she never been the same since... Never mind." I said stopping myself from saying something I would regret.
"Got ya and Ali told me about your little encounter with them, and plus you could hear it from across the room. Darcy looked pissed when she saw who you were yelling at and your other sister kinda seemed happy to see him." Sav said and everyone looked back and forth trying to figure it out.
"Who are we talking about?" Eli ask me and then I noticed I was going back to my past again. Just then flashbacks were coming back one after another. I couldn't handle it anymore and ran out of the lunch room almost in tears. Just to many memories. I didn't notice two boys following me.
"Hey what's up with you?" K.C ask me as he came up behind me and took me by the arm. I glared at him.
"Leave me the hell alone. I still can't believe to this day you did that to me." I told him yelling at him pretty much. "Of all people you do it to me and in my time of need at that." I told him yelling still.
"Its not my fault nobody in your family likes you." He told me yelling at me like I was to him. Nobody talked bad about my family. He new it too.
"My family does to like me they just don't seem to show it." I told him the last part in a whisper. Sometimes I felt like I was raising myself with the help from my sister. The only one who understood and was leaving me next year. Just like everyone did. "And you may be right on that one. At least I have my older sister."
"Oh please she's been going around gloating about going to Kenya next year so you don't have her much longer. Leaving you in charge or your sisters." He told me with a smirk knowing he was getting to my weakness.
"Don't go there with my sisters please. You always brought them up in fight. I can't help how the lord wants my life to turn out. I still can't believe you broke up with me cause I didn't want to have sex with you. So you go to some blonde cheerleader and get her knocked up? That's messed up K.C. I'm glad you did that though. It shows me that all guys are the same and it proves I don't want to be tied down when I get older." I told him yelling really loud. Just then Madison came over to us.
"Clare your back with K.C! Finally I've missed him and so has Momma." She told me coming from the lunch room. He smirked at me. I just glared.
"See they all miss me at the house." He told me trying to lean in for a kiss. I slapped him in the face but he kept leaning in to me.
"Hey! Let me go you jackass." I told him trying to get out of his grip but he wouldn't let me. Finally after a lot of screaming and squirming Eli came out of no were.
"She said let her go. I think you should before you get hurt in the face." He told him and K.C did as he was told. I sighed thankful he was gone.
"Clare, I want K.C back in the family. Who cares about your purity ring. You were the only one to want one. Everyone has sex as a teen. Its normal." Madison told me. See what I mean about her really being smart and not showing it? I just glared at her.
"Madison Ann Edwards if you don't get to class now god so help you." I told her and she went off fighting back about how she wanted K.C back in the family. I just rolled my eyes.
"So what exactly was that all about?" Eli ask me making me jump forgetting he was there. I sighed and he smirked at me. I did miss K.C for a while, but after this I was so over him. "Sorry." Eli mumbled about scaring me.
"Its okay, and I'll explain it some other time if your lucky. Since you did help me though, I may just tell you anyway. Later though cause it is a long story." I told him and he agreed with me. I just smiled at how he was acting with it. It made me feel better on it all.
"Anytime your ready to tell me Blue Eyes." He whispered in my ear making me blush and him smirk then he walked off. I just stared at where he had just been recently.
The things this boy makes me do.

It was the end of the day meaning school was out finally. When I got to my locker I saw Maddi and Eli both waiting on me. They were staring each other down. This should be interesting. I went up to them and got my locker combo in putting my stuff up for the day. Thank god for no homework.
"You ready to go?" Eli ask me as he lead us to his car. No freaking way that he drove a hearse. I use to kinda want one when I was younger. I was a strange kid.
"Is that really your car?" I ask him still not believing it. It was so cool. I just couldn't believe it. Just then Adam came up to us. He had been running.
"Dude Drew has practice so I was wondering if you could take me home again?" He ask while Eli just nodded. "Sweet thanks dude." He told him.
"No problem Adam." Eli told him then turned to me. "Oh and Clare yes this really is my car. I take it you like it." He told me with a smirk. I just rolled my eyes.
"Yea I like it. I wanna ride in the back seats." I said getting in the car with Maddi following behind me. I smiled at liking the back cause it was unreliably comfortable. Just my opinion though. "I could get use to this." I said making them laugh.
We dropped Adam off first then I climbed in the front seat before Madison could. I liked using her full name most of the time cause it bugged her so much. It was fun since I had to watch after her all the time.
"So how old are you?" Eli ask me trying to break the quiet. I smiled at this and was about to answer when Madison beat me to it. I groaned.
"She's 14 but she will be 15 September 1st." She told him with a smirk while I just gave her an angry look for answering for me. I could answer for myself you know.
"That's cool, cause I just turned 16 not to long ago. On July 29th." He said and I smiled then frowned. I was falling in love. Something I promised myself I wouldn't do.
"That's neat." I told him with a smile then noticed mom was home already. "Oh great our so called mother is home." I said sarcastically to myself but Eli heard me.
"Mind if I come in with you so we can get to know each other for English?" He ask me and I thought about it. Darcy would be asking questions later, while mom wouldn't notice, Madison would get mad cause it wasn't K.C, and Brianna would follow him everywhere. Gotta love family.
"Sure why not." I told him getting out of the car and helping Madison out. "Now Maddi, if you got homework you better get it done before you go and play." I told her and she nodded while rolling her eyes. She ran in the house while I walked in with Eli. Brianna saw and came running.
"Clare, your home! Wait who's he?" She ask me looking at Eli. He smiled at her got down to her level and looked her in the eyes.
"I'm Eli and what's your name pretty little girl?" He ask her and she giggled which meant she liked him. Whenever she did that you were good.
"My name is Brianna Marie Edwards and you, Eli, are my boyfriend now." She told him making me burst out laughing by the look on his face. This couldn't get much better.
Oh that is so something my little sister would do! =) You really gotta love family! The ages are really based off my siblings! The only thing is I don't have an older sister. Just a older half brother and two younger sisters. I put Darcy in the story since she really was Clare's older sister in the show.
Madison, who does my younger sister, is gonna turn 13 on April 1. Brianna, who does my youngest sister, will be 8 on November 18. And Lane, who does my annoying older half brother, will be 18 on July 29. I'm not sure why gave Eli that birthday, but I did.
Welp just to let you know both my sisters really do have epilepsy in real life. I don't know if I mentioned that last chapter. Now I have, so I hope you enjoyed it! =) Let me know what you think.
Bye for now! =)
