Chapter 4-The Longest Tuesday EVER
I could barely contain my emotions that night and I was so excited the next morning, I didn't realize that everyone knew he was coming home. I was so caught up in spraying my locker with perfume and throwing away scrap paper and taking down my poster of the "Ghost Adventures" crew, that I almost missed the mean girls walking by.
"I heard that FREAK Jeremy was coming home from the mental place, like, tomorrow!" Said Jesse, their leader. She had the blondest hair I had ever seen. Her eyes were the color of melted caramel, and she was every boys dream girl, but her beauty was no match for my redhead temper, and within seconds of her saying that, she was pinned on the ground with my fists and claws flying. The wannabes were standing there yelling "OMG!" and "Help! EEK!".
About an hour later, we were both sitting in the principles office, me scowling out of the window and her trying to stop the bleeding. My parents both rushed in as Jesse was escorted out by the nurse.
"Oh Honey Bun!" My mom said rushing in to hug my as my dad awkwardly stood there looking down at us.
"Is that blood on your shirt?" My mom shrieked.
"It's the other girl's." I replied
"Hell yeah! That's my girl!" My dad said looking proud. This earned him a nasty look from my mom and a small giggle from me.
"I'm okay mom really. I just want to go home." I said. The principle had given me permission to go home and cool down. I loved my principle, she was kind, gentle, and loving to all the students. I loved my school too, all the teachers were fair and understanding, except the worse student-teacher ever, Mr. Beach.
"Okay honey, let's go." Said my mom.
When we had got home, I immediately rushed to my room and closed the door behind me. I needed to clean desperately and so I did. Running around like a 5' tornado, I cleaned my room, made my bed, organized my perfume and nail polish according to color, and made my bed. I was just about to walk out of my hot pink room when I caught a glimpse of myself in the full length mirror on the wall.
I looked at myself. I had long and naturally straight red hair that came down to my armpits, and it was just as red as the Weasley's from Harry Potter and I usually got many compliments on it. Today I saw my hair and realized that, to me it looked kind of drab. Then I saw my eyes, they were so green, they looked almost neon. I stepped back a little and took in my figure.
I was very short, and I was thin, but I had good boobs and a butt. I knew I hadn't gotten about an inch taller since I last saw Jeremy, and I looked the same except my hair was longer and I was thinner because, I had just now lost the rest of my baby fat. I wasn't too skinny like some sticks like Jesse, just...normal. I wondered if Jeremy would still want or even like me.
I was just about done. I went to the bathroom, opened up my make-up bag and put it on like I used to. I looked really good like I used to. I didn't use too much make-up so it looked natural, but you could also tell I was wearing make-up. I wondered if Jeremy had even missed or had even thought about me until that letter last month. I wondered if he knew he was going to see me first thing tomorrow. I wondered most of all, what would happen next?
