      My alarm blaring, I cover my head with a pillow. Nope, not happening. I am not returning to that hell. I can just skip my senior year and get a GED. Though I am still valedictorian, I can easily throw that away. A loud banging on my door tells me that is not going to happen.

       Sighing I get out of bed, shut off my alarm and take a shower. Getting dressed I throw on a off the should D&D shirt, with a pair of black skinny jeans, and original converse. I fix my hair, which my bangs being longer than my face, and now neon blue thanks to Elaine. Grabbing my back pack I head downstairs. I have been lucky so far, Ariana has been at cheer camp, so she doesn't know I'm back yet, and I haven't run into anybody from school.

        Mom looks at me a shakes her head. Can't help it, I will not dress girly. Besides Elaine and I planned out outfits. She got her bangs dyed red with her long black hair. We are going to be awesome. Just saying.

        " You are too late for breakfast, and Elaine is waiting in the driveway." My dad says behind the newspaper. It has been weird being in the same house as both of my parents, and John my step dad.

        " Hey mom, where is John?" I asked knowing it would irritate dad. We hadn't got along since he married the Wicked Witch of the West, and brought her protege with her. He knew I absolutely loved John.

        " He took Sara to preschool. He told me to tell you to have a great first day, and that he loves you." She said without looking up.

      Sara is my little sister. She is going to be five this year, kinda hard to believe how fast she has grown. Mom wasn't expecting to have another child, since I was her only one. But John finally convinced her, since he had none. So, when I was thirteen I became an older sister.

       " Ok, well bye." I waved as I hurried towards the door. Neither parent replied or i didn't hear them since i practically rushed out the door.  Getting in the car I sighed. Today was gonna be rough. Had I only known how rough it was going to be?

First period went ok. Most people just ignored me. Most. I got a couple of weird looks here and there but nothing big. Luckily this teacher was big on roll call. Second period however, I wasn't so lucky.

    My second period class was drama. I got to choose it. I was kind of in a state of shock to not only see Mitchell or Mitch as he likes to be called, but Ariana and her posse were in here. I literally almost walked back out. Too bad Elaine was right behind me glaring.

        " Great, the freak is in this class?" Ariana snarled at Elle as I call her. Then she and her friends laughed.

        " What the hell is your problem Barbie?" I snapped. " Did Ken forget to take your tampon out."

         Elle's eyes widden and the whole classroom got quiet. I resisted the urge to slap myself but didn't. What the hell was I thinking? I had a death wish.

       " What did you..." Ariana started but was interrupted by a loud laugh. Mitch was holding his stomach he was laughing so hard.

         " The, *laugh* the new kid told you!" Mitch never like Ariana, even when they hated me about the same.

         " Shut it Delinquent." Ariana said with a smug smile. Then she turned to Elle. " What did your little bitch just say?"

        " She said you were being a bitch." Mitch shouted. He then walked up to me and stuck out his hand. " I'm Mitch, it's a pleasure to meet you. And you are?"

        My jaw slighlty dropped as I realized neither one if them knew who I was. Only if that had lasted. The teacher walked in and we hurried to our seats.

       " Hello class I am Jenny. I will be your drama teacher for this year." She smiled and grabbed her clipboard and counted heads with names.

        " Hey Elaine, how come Samantha is here? I noticed she wasn't in town when I got back."  Mitch looked at us.

         " Her mom was afraid people might think they were related and sent her to die at a fat camp" Araina giggled.

        " Hey quiet!" Jenny looked us sternly. " thank you. I am going to called role call."

    Scanning the list she looked at the class again. Then she said what I hoped would never cross anyone's lips today.

" Samantha Andres?"

Everyone looked around the classroom. Standing up I whispered "here."
