Chance

Chapter 1 - One Last Time

SylverAllynshaArmstrong

The light from my bedroom window was what woke me up that morning. I glanced at my phone and saw that I had about 20 minutes to get up and ready for the first day of school. Story of my life.

This was my daily routine. I'd wake up with little time to spare, get up, get myself to shower and change, try real hard to not go to school in my pajamas and just live to the night. And let me tell you, I hated every second of it.

Today was no different. High school would be over in a year. Finally. I'd be able to leave this terrible excuse of a town and be with people of my own intellectual level.
So this morning, I got myself up and dragged myself to the bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror and thought, "I'd look really stupid with a moustache." I proceeded to brush my teeth and wash my face. Then I did my "morning duties" on the drone and decided to not shower. I went back to my room and groaned for about five minutes until one of the housemaids came into my room and nagged me to get ready. I got up and decided I would stop being a sour puss. So I changed into a pair of blue jeans and a T-shirt that read "Ain't No Wifey" and I picked up my backpack and left for the day.

Purple Valley High School. I hated that place but that place seemed to love me. It seemed like some sort of a cruel punishment. I walked in only to be surrounded by the girls from the cheer team chattering away and asking me about what I did during break and why I didn't call them back and other sorts of unnecessary mumbo jumbo that I was obviously not interested in.

I walked past the crowd to my locker to dump my school supplies in when I noticed Kyle walk towards me.

Kyle Goodman was the nicest and the most beautiful boy our school had. By beautiful, I mean he was rather good looking and like his last name, he was a good person as well. He was the captain of the basketball team and incidently my boyfriend.

Shocker. Another cliché. Well, you'll see.
Kyle was lovely but he was honestly the dumbest and the most naive person ever. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't like he was "loyal" or any of that sort, he was just plain drool-from-the-mouth dumb. He walked to me and kissed me. I looked at him a smiled.  "Hi, you. How was your summer?" "Great actually. I wanted to talk to you about something. Walk?" he said with a sort of hopeful glint in his eyes. I held his hand and asked him what was up.

"Remember Ashley? From-"

"Ashley from Sheryl's sister's wedding?"

"Yeah her. Well, she was in town and she gave me a call this summer to see if I was available to hang out with her. Show her around and all."

I knew what was coming. Like I said, every high school cliche ever. I left his hand and looked straight at his eyes challengingly. He seemed a little threatened.

"I might have hooked up with her a few times this summer. I tried to tell you but I couldn't because I didn't know how to. Syl, babe. You know I love you, right? I swear I won't do this again. Promise."

He tried to smile but my look shot him down.

"I'm quite frankly not that bothered with your bullshit, Kyle."

He looked shocked. I never cussed. But this summer did quite take it's toll on me.
He proceed to speak but I interrupted him.

"Maybe you'll be happy to know that now you can do what you want. You can fuck who you want without feeling guilty about your girlfriend back home. Oh wait, you don't feel guilty. I keep forgetting that."
He looked far more astonished. More at my cussing and less at my insults.

"I don't know why I even bother talking to you. I'd much rather be talking to my neighbour's dog. At least he'll understand what I'm telling him."

His eyes couldn't get wider with astonishment.

"I really hope you understand what you keep doing. Babe."

With that I left a quite stupid looking Kyle hanging with his jaw on the ground.
I left to walk towards my first class which was AP English. I was so glad there was only one year left of this recurring bullshit.
