Chapter One
Bella
Wow
This is the only word I can say right now. This is going to be the last semester and then graduation.
Graduation
I have always looked forward to my graduation, ever since I was in the fourth grade, to be honest when I was younger I would stand in front of the mirror dressed in my aunt’s bathroom pretending it to be my black graduation gown and I would walk around and dance, I would pretend to talk to my teachers, telling them goodbye
“I would like to tell you to suck it!”
“Oh hi Mrs Dawson, do you remember when you said I wouldn’t make it? Pft, I made it, I’m in medical school but where are you now?” Eleven years old me would squeal in front of the mirror and start laughing, this was my time. Times like this, times where I pretend that I’m an older girl living a normal life, was the best times, but the moment I remove my aunt’s bathrobe and walk out of my bedroom everything goes back to normal and that’s when I remember that there is no such thing as happiness
Happiness is another thing.
It has been two months. Two months since everything happened. And now everything is amazing, or I would like to prefer the word normal, now everything is normal and that makes me happy, for once I actually close my eyes and rest my head against the pillow at night feeling safe
Something that felt different
Justin, Leo, Lana, Tiana, Lucy and I are very good best friends. Justin's mum got really better. But the best thing is that Tiana, Lucy and I got to go to England in the past holiday to our other cousins. And since I'm a fast learner, I have a British accent unlike Lucy and Tiana, who sound like dead chickens when they try and talk in a British accent
Brandon and Cameron went to some camp and came back acting even dumber than ever, don't even ask me what the hell they were doing in that camp.
Anyway, every day in our History class, Mr Henry would end up in the first aid room because of my pranks, but I couldn't have done any of it without Justin. We're not troublemakers; we just like to make things a little fun.
And as for Coach Foster that has been giving Tiana, Lucy and I some weird looks is in prison, I mean I sent him to prison. He tried forcing himself on me, it was horrible. But he will be staying in prison for five years, but I swear if he leaves early he'll be buried alive.
Tiana, Lucy and I have been working on our history projects alone, since the three of them never showed up, ever since the incident. Justin was going to join our group but Mr Henry said that it is going to be a disaster if he and I are in the same group. This month has been the best, well minus the whole Coach Foster incident, but then everything was amazing.
But I think Mr Henry is stupid because Justin sits right behind me, even if he's in another group, we always succeed in our pranks, and our class members always rate our pranks, and some of the pranks are posted online on numerous sites.
As for Collins, he never showed his duck ugly face again, which is great. I mean I still contact Festo for new guns and to keep him updating but ya nothing bad happened.
Nothing bad happened
I phrase that I never get to use often
Every day passes with talking, joking and laughing, but of course Lucy have to give me a daily lecture saying "You're so lucky to have the British accent, I mean I tried but I can't get the accent right, you're lucky I love you or you'd be dead by now" and ends it with a laugh.
Lucy says that boys love girls with accents but that's not my goal, I mean I didn't even want the accent, well, to be honest, I kind of hoped to catch on with it, because come on it sounds nice, especially the British accent
King of sounds posh when they’re angry
But to my luck, it was as if it was stuck in my tongue with all the people talking around us using the accent.
So here we are going to school again, wondering what's awaiting m-
No
For some reason, I cut my thoughts off and not complete that phrase because I remember, because I know, that these were the exact words that I used when I was on my way to detention
When I was on my way to my first detention
I clear my throat and sit up straight, I hate that day, and I know that I always will but in some way it thought me something. Always have your walls up, and never let them down
"We arrived" Tiana announced as she opened her door, I blink a couple of times faster and tighten my grip on my bags straps, we jumped out of the car and walk towards the gates, but stop as Leo, Lana and Justin greet us
Justin
I smile as I greet him, he’s different but for some reason, I can’t move forward. I always say the words best friends to describe the friendship that I have with Justin, the twins and my cousins, even my brother but somewhere deep down I don’t believe it
I don’t believe in the word best friend
I don’t believe in the feeling love
There are a lot of things I didn’t believe in, but as days pass by I feel like the list of things I don’t believe in keep increasing. I sigh again and try to swallow my dried saliva
Ugh, for some reason I don’t like using the word saliva
What am I even thinking about?
I looked at the school from outside "I'm back to hell" I whispered with a forced smile
