Ravishing

Chapter 10

Of course, my mom had found out about me leaving the house, it was all over the Internet. I was grounded and had no contact with either of them. On the plus side I finished my book assignment later that night and got an A+. High five myself.
It was hard to believe that a whole week had passed and Kelly hadn't contacted me, at all, I was worried. I was hoping she was only having too much fun and that she wasn't hurt. It didn't help that my mom took my phone away for half of the week.

Stop, don't think that. I can't be negative. I have to remain calm.

I was finally turning eighteen and my best friend hadn't even sent me a Happy Birthday text.

I lay in bed, I hadn't even bothered fixing my hair, my mom had to work today and I was home alone, she said she would take me out to eat later, but what can I do on a Saturday?

Might as well get out of my pajamas.

I stood up and headed toward my closet standing in front of it, staring at my skirts. Coming across the skirt I almost wore... No Maddie. Don't do this.

That was the best day of my life, and now I have to celebrate my birthday, alone.

Might as well shave my legs, nothing should bring me down, fuck that.

I am 18, what can I do? I can go out and make bad decisions!... More like let me go get dressed so I can sit down in my clothes all day.

I got out of the shower running my hands along my smooth recently shaved legs.

Once I entered my room I checked my phone to see if I had anything from Kelly. Nothing. I had a text from my mom saying she had. Gotten out early, but needed me to pick up some stuff before dinner.

Great.

I got dressed in a black round skirt and tucked in my white top with lace sleeves. Then I walked into my bathroom and applied some pink lipstick and mascara on.

Okay, this is presentable. I walked back to my room and decided to wear my black flats. I wriggled my toes, I am ready to walk to the store.

Why can't my mom go to the store and pick this stuff up herself?

**

I arrived at the supermarket filled with people making last minute shopping.

Fuck. I stared at the sky and shrugged my shoulders "Really Jesus? really?"

I was basically dodging shopping carts my whole time there. I had bags of chips in hand and dip.

After standing in line for an eternity I finally approached the cashier and payed the chips, before noticing a sign "You must be 18 years of age to purchase tobacco"

Oh, well, there's something I can do. Kelly loves cigarettes... maybe I can give them to her the next time I see her.

"Oh and if you can please add a pack of...Camel...crush..." I blurted out.

The cashier looked at me, was that not a good brand?

Of course she didn't give two damns of the cigarette brand, what bothered her was the fact I looked 16.

I took my I.D. out of my handbag and showed it to her. After looking at it for about 10 minutes, she handed it back along with a pack of Camel Crush menthol. I smiled politely and walked away with chips in hand and cigarettes a reminder of my 18th birthday.

A block from my house I began to feel the sun Burn through my skin. What, the, fuck sun. Not today. My feet were beginning to transpirate through to my shoes due to the hot ground beneath them making my feet slippery inside of the shoes. At least I'm almost home, I'm such a complete moron, who walks long distances on a hot day in flats.

I headed for the front door, but it was locked.

You can't be serious I left the door unlocked when I left.

I then headed toward the side of my house and headed for the fence of flowers below my window.

I'm getting too old for this shit.

I left the groceries on the floor and began climbing the rather, high fence. I heard chatter coming from inside my room.

I don't remember leaving my television on.

I peaked inside my window, only to be blinded by bright red and cotton candy hair.

I lost my grip and the next thing I knew, everything went black.
