Falling In Love With My Best Friend

Chapter 1

*RING* *RING* *RING* *RING*

I open my eyes and grab my phone.

"Hello?" I say groggily into the phone.

"Get up. You're gonna be late for school." I hear my father say.

"Ok Dad." I say into the phone.

First day of school Sophomore year. Yippee. I get to go back to the hellhole they call school and deal with stupid bitches that only want to start pointless drama. Great. If you couldn't tell, that was sarcasm. I'm not happy about this at all.

I get up out of bed and walk to the bathroom. I turn on the shower and step in. I quickly wash my hair and get out. I wrap my towel around my body and walk to my bedroom. What outfit could say ,"first day of school and I don't care what you stupid bitches have to say about me?" I decide  on some ripped shorts, a black crop top, a plaid flannel, and black vans. Today is going to suck. I get dressed and then walk back into my bathroom.

Something has to be done with this horrible hair of  mine. I decide to straighten it even though it is already pretty straight naturally. After I finish straightening it I move on to my makeup. I decide to just do a natural look with eyeliner. I just might look semi-presentable now.

I walk out my door, down the stairs, and into the kitchen. I grab an apple and walk towards the front door.

"Is that all you're going to eat?" I hear my father say from behind me. 

"Yes Dad. I'm not that hungry. Just thinking about these stupid girls I'm going to have to deal with makes me feel sick." I reply while rolling my eyes. 

"Leena you know I don't like when you roll your eyes at me." He responds back with a smile. I know he's totally kidding.

"Whatever Dad. Come on I can't be late for my absolutely amazing fantastic first day of sophomore year."

"Okay princess, let's go." He responds. 

We walk out the door and get in the car. I go to turn on music. 

"Dibs on music controlling." I say to my dad with a smile. 

I scroll through my  music on my phone and decide upon Colors by Halsey. I sing along at the top of my lungs. 

Everything is blue

His pills, his hands, his jeans

And now I'm covered in the colors

Pulled apart at the seams

And it's blue

And it's blue

Everything is grey

His hair, his smoke, his dreams

And now he's so devoid of color 

He don't know what it means

And he's blue

And he's blue

The song finished just as we pulled up to the school. 

"Bye honey have a good day. I'll be bringing you lunch later. Just text me and tell me what you want to eat." My dad says to me. 

"Okay Dad. Love you. Have a good day." I say to him 

"Love you too honey. See you later."

I get out of the car and look around. I'm back to this hellhole. Summer wasn't nearly long enough at all. This is the place where I'm still stuck for three years. My time here is going to go by so slowly.
