Years after a tragic accident that took half of her family, Aurora Rossi, a badass street fighter and racer, comes back to her hometown with her mentally abusive father and she reunites with her old partners in crime, Marwa and Noah.
She didn't exp...
She stood before me in her scrub-like uniform and was holding two small paper cups. She extended her arm to give me the smaller cup, containing the many pills they made me take. I took the cup and put all the pills at once in my mouth. I could distinguish the long one, the small round one and the large one. I took a sip of the water that was in the second cup. The only pill I actually swallowed was the small one because I knew it was antidepressants. God knows I actually need it. I hid the two other pills under my tongue and opened my mouth to show the nurse that I « swallowed » them. As soon as she closed the door behind her, I spit up the two pills. I didn't even know what they made me take for whatever bullshit they believed I had.

AS SOON AS I WOKE UP, I rubbed my painful cheek. I got off my bed and walked into my bathroom. I stood in front of the mirror and glanced at my reflection. The fucker really did get me good with the only two punches he succeeded landing on me. I had a colorful bruise on my right cheekbone and a big one on my left ribs. At least he did break any, just bruised one or two. Because this wasn't my first time having a fighting injury, I was usually capable of controlling the pain. If not, I took painkillers that I always had in my bag with me. If not for my injuries, I sometimes used some for my painful period cramps.
I then applied some foundation on my cheek with my fingers and a little bit of mascara while I was at it. I then went over to my dresser and grabbed the first thing I saw. I put on a brown sweater with black ripped jeans, a belt and some matte black Doc Martens.

I decided to leave my hair slightly wavy as it naturally is. I put my books back in my bag, took my phone and my keys and headed downstairs. I took a banana that was laying on the counter and went into my car. I drove over to the bank to make a deposit of the money that I won yesterday and then I headed to school.
When I arrived, I was still 20 minutes early so I opted to stay seated in my car. One of the things I liked the most about my car was that the windows were tinted so the people outside couldn't see into my car. I scrolled through instagram while eating my banana until I heard the roaring of a motorcycle. It immediately caught my attention and I turned my head towards the sound. I saw a gorgeous black BMW R 18. And let me say that the guy who was riding it had a good posture and a flawless technique. He parked next to me while I gazed at him. He got off the motorcycle and took off his helmet. It was just after he shook his hair that I recognized who it was, fucking Elijah. I was kinda disgusted with myself as I thought back to litteraly five seconds ago when I was checking him out. He walked over to my car and looked at it for a few seconds until he was standing right in front of my door, bent down to look in the window. I thought he was looking inside the car but I soon realized that he was actually checking himself out. He passed his hands through his hair and smirked. I immediately thought of a way to embarrass him. I rolled down the window with my eyebrow raised. He had a shocked face for a second then it was gone. I started to laugh a little at him.
« Feeling yourself? » I asked, still laughing.
« Actually, very much. I mean, how couldn't I when I look like this? » He smiled cockily.
I rolled my eyes and said: « You know, you're such an asshole. »
« Everybody keep saying that I'm the biggest ass in the city, but that's not true, I just HAVE the biggest ass in the city. » He answered back.
I rolled my eyes and put my window back up. He stood there for a few seconds then he turned around and walked away still laughing at his own joke.
I looked at my phone and saw that it was time to go pick up my books. I got out of my car and locked it. I walked in the school and looked for Marwa and Noah while walking to my locker.
« Hey, Aurora! » Someone said behind me.
I turned around and saw my two best friends walking towards me. I smiled at them and greeted them.
« Good morning, guys! »
« Yes indeed it was, until I realized that my first class is- » Marwa started but got interrupted by Noah.
« My god Aurora, remind me to never make you angry, damn. » He said, making me confused.
I followed his gaze behind me and my eyes met with the face of the guy that groped me yesterday, but disfigured. He had a crooked nose with a bandage on it, a cut on the eyebrow, a black eye and multiple other bruises.
« I don't know what happened to this guy, but I call it on Karma. » I said.
« That's some bad ass Karma... » Marwa stated with her eyes still wide.
After this whole 'incident', we headed to our first class, history, which we all had together. We arrived in the classroom and we all sat at the back. Noah was beside me and Marwa was in front of me. We started talking and within minutes, the bell rang and the teacher started speaking.
« Okay class, listen up! Today we will start a project about the declaration of independence. It will be done in teams of two that I already chose and no, you can't change your teams. » Ms whatever-her-name-was announced.
A series of 'huffs' and complaints were heard. She then proceeded to start naming the teams.
« ...Noah and Brittany, Logan and Marwa and finally, Aurora and Elijah. »
« Oh hell nah » Noah and me exclaimed at the same time.
I glanced at Elijah and he was, of course, already smirking. I then looked at Marwa who was finding her pencil very interesting at the moment. I diverted my eyes towards Logan who was looking everywhere except towards us. 'Mmmmmmh, interesting...' I thought.
« Well this will be very fun » I said sarcastically while rolling my eyes.
