ANGEL’S POV’S
I walk into the hallway my heads held high, I woke up this morning feeling so cheerful
And I don’t like this feeling
It almost made me go downstairs without my disguise, I am starting to think this has to do with my powers because I just want to hug everyone
But someone had to come wreck it that’s if I allow them too, the School’s most popular girl
Now this isn’t some stereotype school of the Queen Bitch, Lily is actually very nice, she’s known for her excessive good looks and no she doesn’t have blonde hair but red hair and is not on the cheerleading team actually the opposite, she’s the only girl in the Boys Soccer team and she has two honest friends not minors
Betty and Ella, they are a bit rude but not lily she’s too nice
Once Lily is on the field she acts more like a tomboy but when at school she’s pretty much like any other girly girl
The only thing I know about her is that she never bullies anyone except for those whom she hates. Everyone likes her and she actually has never bullied me so you may ask why she’s actually here right now
I’m about to find out
‘Hey Lily’. I say cheerfully, she scoffs looking at me pitifully, wonder what she wants
‘Angel isn’t it? You and I have never crossed parts before till you just had to be the idiot that you are and annoy me’. She says in a sweet voice but I can tell she’s fuming
‘Now Lily what did I do? I’ve never talked to you before. How come I “annoyed you’? I say looking at the small crowd gathering
‘You took the only person I want River, why? I’ve never done anything to you and yet he broke up with me because of YOU’. Lily seethes
Where does River come in? I haven’t talked to him before
‘Where did you get that idea from?’ I ask calmly
‘I saw you guys come out of the same car and immediately he came and broke up with me
Oh the car ride
55 minutes earlier
‘Knock knock’ the door bangs, I smile waking up from my sleep, I just feel so happy today as I’m about to go get the door, I realize that I am not wearing my disguise
‘Who’s there?’ I ask
‘It’s Ryan and we’re leaving in 25 minutes’. He says
‘Okay I’ll be down in ten’. I say walking into the bathroom, I take my bath and brush my teeth before slipping into a black straight skirt and blue hoodie, I slip in my converse walking out of my room as I’m about to reach the stairs I realize that I actually haven’t put my “makeup” I run back up putting the stuff before running back down attempting to make myself presentable
8:12
‘I’m ready, Good morning Aunt R’. I say smiling
I really wonder where her husband is, I haven’t seen him before I guess
‘Come have breakfast’. Aunt R says
‘I’ll get something along the way plus we are really late for school’. I offer
‘Angel let’s go’. Ryan shouts, I walk outside entering their cool car, a Lexus brand
River is apparently driving the car while Ryan is with me at the back of the car
‘So Angel wanna go out with me after school?’ Ryan asks
‘Why all of a sudden will you just want to go out with me?’ I say playing dumb
‘Because I just noticed your fine distinction and I actually want to know you better, plus I helped you yesterday why don’t return the favor’ Ryan says in a rude manner
‘Nah, I’m not interested and I certainly don’t want to know you better’. I say smuggling, I hear River chuckling at the back before packing the car making me grasp that we are already in school, I come out of the car grinning
My good mood still with me‘Lily, I’ve never talked to River before, they just had to pick me up this morning’. I mutter not wanting anyone to know I’m a Smith
‘Yeah right’. Betty says slapping me across the face
Oh did I forget to tell you that Betty has an enormous crush on Ryan but she thinks no one knows, I stumble a little bit shocked by the slap, everyone dismantles and I figure a teacher is there, I sit by my locker (on the floor- brooding)
Is this really how I want to spend the rest of my high school days?
‘Hey’. A voice says, I look up to see a beautiful brunette with green beautiful eyes, she must be a new student
‘What do you want?’ I ask harshly
‘I’m Tami and I just want to be friends with you’. Tami says looking at me with admiration
What?
‘Okay I’m Angel’. I say awkwardly, I stand up before heading to my first period with my new friend by my side
Looks like today didn’t turn out so bad
…….
Hey guys hope you enjoyed that boring chapter, it’ll get better
How many of you thought Lily would be the new friend
And what’s the deal with Tami?
Don’t forget to vote and comment
