Hot Topic and hot boys

I tied my long red hair into a bun as I made my way into Hot Topic, where I worked everyday after school. Today wasn't actually that bad, you know, for school. Apparently it was ditch day today and me, only hanging out with my bestfriend Samantha, or Sam as she prefers to be called, didn't get told because Sam's out of school with the flu. So, since everyone wasn't there, I didn't get bullied like I do most of the time.
Anyway, I clocked into work and started put more Bring Me The Horizen shirts on the shelf when a costumer walked in.
"hi, can I help you with anything?" I asked, being the wonderful person I am.
"uh, no. I'm just looked around, thanks though." the guy said. I could help but think he looked really familiar. He had emo-style hair and two lip piercings that I had to say were quite attractive. I just couldn't seem to think of where I would know him from. I mean, I know he didn't go to my school, because if he did I probably would've noticed him. I mean his bright blue-green eyes would've caught my attention at some point through my 3 years of high school.....
I was snapped out of my thoughts but a guys voice basically yelling "EXCUSE ME" so I looked up and that guy was standing in front of me with two shirts. As I scanned them I looked to see that one was The Ready Set and another was Pierce The Veil.
"that'll be $43.95. Nice shirts by the way." I said, and he handed me the money and said thank you quickly and walked off.

~~the next day~~
I woke up by If You Can't Hang by Sleeping With Sirens blasted through my radio, signaling that it was time for me to get the hell out of bed. Good thing today is Friday though, because if it wasn't, I probably would've just skipped today. Man, I'm so tired. But I sucked it up and grabbed a new Sleeping With Sirens shirt I bought the other day, some ripped up skinnies, my bra and stuff, and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
I was only in the shower for a few minutes when my mom started banging on my bathroom door yelling "LYRIC GET YOUR ASS OUT OF THERE IN LESS THAN A MINUTE, OR YOU'RE GROUNDED" okay well I guess I don't have time to actually enjoy my shower. I thought as I quickly rinsed the shampoo out of my hair.
I step out of the warmth and humidity of my shower and a blast of cold air hits my bare skin as I dry off and wrap my towel around my head.
I look at my self in the mirror before a get my clothes on.
"Wow I really need to lose weight." I say to myself.
I then go ahead and get dressed, pulling on my destroyed jeans and applying deodorant before putting my shirt on.
I walk into my room and find a pair of socks and my black converse and slip them on before heading back to my bathroom and applying my makeup. I don't actually look like a cake face, but when I list my makeup that I put on, it sounds like I do.
I start of by putting on liquid powder and brushing over it with a makeup brush just to even it out and take off the excess makeup, then I put on just plain powder. Following that, I put on my eye shadow and winged eyeliner, and curl my lashes and apply mascara. After that I just wipe make up out of my eyebrows and go on to straighten my red hair that goes down to about the bottom of my ribs.
After I finish all that I grab my phone and my wallet and stick them in my back pocket and run down stairs and skip breakfast, heading straight to my car.
~skip car ride bc boring~
When I get to school I go to the hallway and sit on the bench and listen to music since I still have 20 minutes until first period.
I was about get up to go to my locker when someone tapped on my shoulder. I looked up to see no other than Chelsea, the school prep, popular, motherfucking queen bee, I don't care whatever you call her, she's still a bitch and I hate her.
"What." I say more like a statement than a question.
"Wow, no need to be rude loser. I was just going to say that there's a new kid here, and he looks like you-a weird emo freak- and I think that you guys should hang out. So it's easier to bother both of you." She said. Then she pushed me off my bench and laughed, going off with her friends (or slaves as I call them) laughing about how cool it was to be mean to me.
I just roll my eyes and stand up, picking up all my stuff. Just as I was about to pick up my last folder, someone picks it up for me and hands it to me. I look up to see no other than the boy from Hot Topic yesterday.
"Uh, thank you." I said l, kind of stuttering.
"No problem. Hey, aren't you the girl from the mall yesterday?" Oh great, he remembers me.
"Oh, uh, yeah. That's me. Hot Topic girl. Complimented you on that shirt you're wearing right now. Feels really awkward right now. Should probably be going to class." I say, staring at the floor the entire time.
"Well Hot Topic girl, I'm Johnnie and I'm new here, so do you think you can show me around? Here's my schedule." I look at his schedule and realize we have every class together, right down to drama for 7th period. I tell him that we have every class together, and we walk to 1st together.
~skip to lunch~
I got to lunch before Johnnie because he was taking too long with his locker and and I wasn't patient enough to wait for him. So I set alone at this table, waiting for him to show up, and then someone covers my eyes and I squeal.
"Guess who." Johnnie said from behind me, but attempting to talk in a deep voice, but failing horribly.
"Johnnie go get food and stop fucking with me." I say
"Oh Lyric, I'm not fucking you. Unless you want me to." He says and winks, while I laugh and watch him as he gets in line to go get his food. When he gets back he asks if I had already ate, and I lie and say yes.
