6:40 AM
I woke up at the sounds of birds chirping outside the window. I sat up and rubbed my head my head the effects of a hangover because of last night making my head hurt. I leaned over to the the night stand on my left and opened it. I pulled out my bottle of pain medicine and a water bottle. I took 4 pills and finished my half bottle of water downing it in one go.
I pulled my phone from under my pillow and checked the time 6:42 AM I had to be at school at 9 "I'll get up at 8" I put my phone back under my pillow and laid back down closing my eyes and drifting off to dreamland
"TAYLOR KRIS EVANS" the yell of my name woke me up and made me jolt up and open my eyes to a blurry version of my mom "Why are you yelling my government name to the world" I scratched my head as I was ready to lay back down. "It is 8:55 why are you still here and not at school your going to make your sister late" "Oh" "Oh? really just oh get your lazy ass up and get to school now before I beat you" I only nodded in response she looked at me and walked out of my room slamming the door. I yawned and stretched before finally getting out of bed.
I stood and walked to the restroom connected to my room to relive myself, once done I washed my hands, cleaned my face, brushed my hair and brushed my teeth. I looked in the mirror to see me. Pale skin, dark circles, dark brown eyes, shoulder length black hair, a loose shirt and a pair of boxer. My reflection and I stared at each other "b***h" I murmured to my reflection I turned away and walked out to my dresser. seeing as how my room had no closet.
I pulled out a black hoodie with a few bleach stains and a pair of grey sweatpants the read NASA in black. I threw them on my bed and went to find socks ofcourse they don't match I threw them on the bed also.
I stripped myself of the clothes and threw them in a small basket I had under the bed. I pulled the hoodie on not bothering to put a shirt on, next I put on my sweats and then my socks. I turned towards my pillows and grabbed my phone, keys and wallet I shoved them all In my hoodie pocket and walked to the kitchen and all I saw was my younger sister, Quinn standing near the counter facing away from me while eating oranges. Her waist length hair pulled into a ponytail. she wore black skinny jeans and a grey hoodie.
Quinn barely talks she'd only talk to people she's comfortable around.
"Let's go Quinn" She nodded in responde and threw away what looked like the peels of 7 baby oranges. I shook my head and headed for the door I grabbed my white chucks from by the door and slid them on my feet and walked out hearing Quinn do the same. She locked the door and followed me to my car it was nothing special just a Kia Soul wagon 2017. I stuck my key in and unlocked the doors I got inside and Quinn following me doing the same.
I looked over at her and asked "Do you want a coffee" she looked down and nodded. I reached out and rubbed the scar that ran down from hey eyebrow to her jaw. she turned her head away and I instantly pulled my hand away "Sorry" I turned the car on and drove to Stella's Cafe. I went trough the drive through and got the usual I ordered a vanilla coffee Quinn got her usual toasted white chocolate iced. I payed and drove Quinn me and Quinn to school she was 15 freshman while I was 17 a Senior.
I pulled into the school parking lot. I parked away from the other kids meaning I parked in the back. I pulled into a parking spot and I turned to look at the time 9:30.
"I have a shift at the diner 5 to 10 do you wanna come of go home" "You" I only nodded in response. I pulled out $10 and gave it to Quinn "Lunch money and don't buy oranges again" Quinn would eat oranges all day and get sick she's done it multiple times. She took the money and nodded. I leaned back and grabbed mine and Quinn's bag from the back. I locked the doors before getting out making sure my door is locked too. When we reached the entrance of the school we walked in and went to the office for late passes. Inside the office we're 6 guys all bruised and bloody.
I only glanced at them not really caring. I pulled Quinn along as we stood in front if the desk. It was Ms. Moore an old lady you can tell hated her job "Names" "Taylor and Quincy Evans" "reason for lateness" "Other" She looked up and rolled her eyes at me before aggressively writing out late passes and shoving them at me. I took them and handed Quinn her late pass.
When I turned around one of the guys was staring at me 'The hell is he looking at' I only scrunched my eyebrows and walked out the office and when we're in the hall I told Quinn "You have your phone text me if you need anything and I mean it" all I got back was an nod. I waved bye at Quinn as I walked further into the school seeing as seniors were put in the back. After 3 minutes of walking a reached my 2nd period teacher seeing I missed 1ist period.
My 2nd period was journalism III. I walked in and saw Mr.Lillywhite, He looked up from his desk and tsked at me before holding his hand out I walked in and handed him my late pass "You have a writing assignment create a 10 paged fantasy book front and back due in two weeks, There's paper on the back table if it needed"
I walked to my desk which was 4th row by the window. I opened my bag and pulled out my journal and a pen and began thinking about what to write. I'll write about Alice Liddell meeting Cinderella.
20 minutes in I've written 2 pages so far as I continued the door opened and in came Ms.Moore and it looked to be 4 of the guys from earlier. Everyone stopped and observed and whispered. "Mr.Lillywhite you have 3 students transferring into your class" "Thank you Ms. Moore" she walked out leaving the boys behind, Leaving Mr.Lillywhite to stare at the boys before he finally spoke "you have a writing assignment you will create a 10 paged fantasy book front and back due in two weeks, There's paper on the back table if it needed and sit wherever" once he finished he went back to grading some old papers.
The boys all looked at each other confused before looking around the room before looking at me. Well the extra row of empty seats behind me. They walked to the row of seats they sat down. I didn't know what they we're doing behind me and honestly didn't wanna know. My phone vibrated in my pocket I slowly pulled it out and held it at my side so Mr.Lillywhite won't see. It was a message from Quinn.

After my conversation with Quinny I quickly raised my hand and asked the teacher can I be excused "No" "But it's an emergency" "Don't care no"
I quickly scratched my head thinking of a way out I didn't have one so I quickly shoved my papers in my bags and quickly snatched it before running out the class I heard the teacher yell "Ms.Evans that's a week of detention" I really didn't care all I cared about was quinn. It took me about 2 minutes to reach the gym I rushed in and into the locker room.
All I heard was crying I walked t the showers and saw Quinn on the floor hugging her knees crying soaking wet. I dropped my bag and rushed to her cringy form. WHAT HAPPENED WAS THE ONLY THING ON MY MIND
