High school and the Drama that Follows ! 2
I know it's been awhile, I've gotten out of the Grojband obsession period. BUT, since I already started this, I decided to carry it out for the sake of the story. Anyway, to WolvesRock14, no I didn't get the name from Teen Beach Movie, and thank you for being the first Reviewer! You rock! And those of you who have also reviewed thank you too!
BTW It's summer between Junior and Senior year in High school!
IMPORTANTNESS: I meant to say Lanes hair was really long! OOPS

Laney
Today was the day; after the band rehearses I'll tell them. I think Kon already sensed that I wasn't happy anymore. What can I say; the big guy's a softie sometimes.
I wake up at about 8 and see that Little Miss Angel Pants is still asleep. Since I'm staying at my dad's while Mom is in Africa for the summer, for work of course, I'm sharing a room with her it. I grab my makeup bag and start applying a thick layer of black eyeliner and some black lipstick. I put in a black cross earing in one of the piercings, (She has 4 piercings in one ear.) a small black jewel in the second, a gray hoop in the third, and a silver ball in the last. I just ruffle my straight long hair, I died my bangs black but kept the rest it's natural reddish auburn color. I put on a black and green striped tube bra with a black vest over it. It's not really a vest but I have no other name for it, it is thin strapped with a v-neck collar that has buttons lower down. At the bottom it, it flays outward to v-shaped points, revealing my pierced belly ring.
I wore ripped grey shorts with chains on them. I also had on black thigh high socks and black combat boots.
I stepped out the door just as Perfect Princess McKenzie woke up. I padded down the stairs to see, Dad and Angelique, or "Angel" in the kitchen. After my parents' divorce, my dad had more kids with Angel.
After McKenzie was a boy 2 years younger than us, named Theo. Then they had twins, Violet and Viola, 5 years younger than us, and then baby Alexander, only 3 years old. I know, a lot of kids right? I guess Dad couldn't keep it in his pants huh?
"Morning hon!" Angel says, setting out a plate of pancakes for me. I know I should hate her for separating my family, but she's just so nice I can't
"Thanks Angel" I say then start digging in
All she does is smile and finish making more for everyone else.
McKenzie struts down the stairs in her usual revealing outfit. Her wavy bleach blond hair is down around her mid back and has little pink barrettes in it. She is wearing a white belly shirt that shows her golden belly piercing with a bedazzled pink heart.
She wears a, two sizes to small pink mini skirt, showing her butt and underwear if she bends over. She also has on pink Mary Janes and white knee socks.
She sits down across from me and secretly glares at me when no one is looking. Her mom puts a pile of pancakes in front of her and she chows it down so fast you wouldn't think it was there in the first place.
We both finish and Dad makes me wait for her so we can go to band practice.
"Now, Laney wait for your sister, to clean up. You're in the same band and should walk over together. " Dad says in his naturally deep and reassuring voice.
"Fine Dad as long as she doesn't take forever," I mumble unwillingly
At that moment Mc Prissy Pants walks out of the bathroom and gives me a fake smile.
"C'mon sis let's go," She still acts perfectly, and I have to hand it to her for being so good at acting.
We leave the house and walk over to the Riffin household.

Corey
My parents are out as always leaving me home alone, since Trina was stalking Nick Mallory.
I hear the doorbell ring and I walk over to answer. It was Kin and Kon.
"Sup," I hear Kon say
"Hey," Kin says
"Yeah, Lanes and Kenz isn't here yet so we can just chill until they get here" I motion them in and we sit in the living room.
"SO, we have brainstormed a few questions to ask you on our way over here," Kin looked directly at me in intense stare.
"What the hell do you see in McKenzie!" Kon just blurts out
I get into that love struck look as I think about my goddess.
"She's just so awesome, cool, funny, kind, smart and hot!" I whisper. But I think something's a little fishy about her…Oh well.
"No! She's a spawn of a demon!" (Kon)
"Do you see at all how she treats Lanes!" (Kin)
I didn't hear it though, because just as he yelled it the doorbell rang once again, and blocked out the sound of Kin's voice
I open the door and see Lanes and Kenz.
"Finally! We were waiting so we can start band practice!" I say putting my arm around Kenz
Lanes Chose 'Last Of The American Girls' by Green Day, but I still sung the lead.
She puts her makeup on
Like graffiti on the walls of the heartland
She's got her little book of conspiracies right in her hand
She is a paranoid endangered species headed into extinction
She is one of a kind
She's the last of the American Girls
I didn't see the tears starting to pool in her eyes,
She wears her overcoat for the coming of the nuclear winter
She is riding her bike like a fugitive of critical mass
She's on a hunger strike for the ones who won't make it for dinner
She makes enough to survive for a holiday of working class
She's a runaway of the establishment incorporated
She won't cooperate
She's the last of the American girls
Nor did I know this would be her last song with us,
She plays her vinyl records singing song on the eve of destruction
She's a sucker for all the criminals breaking the laws
She will come in firs for the end of western civilization
She's an endless war, she's a hero for the lost cause
Like a hurricane in the heart of the devastation
She's a natural disaster
She's the last of the American Girls

Lanes
I quickly wiped away my tears before anyone could see them.
We then finished the song with a bang and Kin, Kon and I sat on the ratty old sofa that's been in this garage for years.
McKenzie and Corey just sat on the edge of the stage, giggling together before locking lips.
I got up on the stage and said, "Ahem," out loud, "I have an announcement to make"
Smooching noises continue
"AHEM!" I yell into a microphone
"WHAAT THE HELL DO YOU FUCKING WANT!" McKenzie screams, "Um, I mean, what would you like to say sister dear?" She fakes
I got everyone's attention before continuing,
"I am hereby quitting the band, for those of you who know the reason keep it to yourself, for my sake" I grab my bass and run out the door.
….
I manage to go to my own room at my mom's house because of the spare keys. I know Dad would never let me spend a summer here alone, so I didn't have my own keys.
I walk into my empty room drawing the blinds making the room a comfortable darkness. I lie down on my bed and let my tears slide down my cheeks onto my pillows.
I wasn't so much sad anymore but angry.
"I am so done with her!" I yell to the empty house while grabbing a pair of scissors.
I take the scissors and chop off my glorious red locks.
I walk to the bathroom and face myself in the mirror. I cut my hair messily around my jawline. I also noticed a small vertical cut on my cheek from when I hacked my hair off.
I was no longer Lanes.
I am the new improved LANEY.
