Nothing In This World (Finn Wolfhard Fanfiction)

Life Sucks

Scarlett's POV:

Two week's until schools over, the summer is nearly here just like the final exams. I have nothing else to do, but study and study. At daytime im studying at school, at the night time at home. At least home is quiet, not like the school, where is everyone constantly talking or shouting.

The teacher's all say that I don't need to worry about my finals, but I still do. I think, my parents are expecting me to end 10th grade with all A's.

Today's school was not different from the others. All day my classmates were just "bullying" every teacher, so in almost every class we had to write a "punishment test". Sucks to be the people who didn't know anything.
After my classes I walked home as always, listening to some music. I just found a new music band called "Lunar Vacation" and I love their music. The town was empty as always. Not many people lives on this side, but I do. The early summers warm was here, and I knew, that was a stupid idea to wear a sweatshirt for today. It was too hot for it.
While I was going home I did a little bypass, because I felt that I need more air, and it felt good. On my walk I dived in my toughts about what if nothing will happen to me in this summer. What if it will be as boring like the past years? I stayed inside the house, never went out to hang, because I had no friends, just like now.

I was so sinked in that I found myself in front of our doorway. I went in, where my Mother greeted me.
-Welcome home Scarlett, how was school?- She asked while going to the fridge to get me a coke. -Just like every day, mom.- I shrugged, and I sat down to the table.
-So, do you have any plans for the summer? Like going out with friends? Maybe getting a boyfriend?- I saw  the excitment in her eyes. I almost spitted out my coke.
-What? No! First, I dont have friends, and I don't plan getting some. Second, I've never been in love in my life, so it won't happen THIS summer.- I said a bit flustered.
-Oh come on, you never know what will hapen to you.- And she was right. I didn't know.
-Oh come on Mom.- I said.
-By the way Dad doesn't want to bring something for dinner?-
-All he can bring is junk food. Honey. What about I make some chiken strips?- -That's perfect too.- I said as I stood up.
-I have to go now. Studying won't do it itself, sadly. I said sarcastically.
-Don't be negative, school ends soon, and you will be free.-

I went up on the stairs that leads me to my room. While getting closer to my place I peeked into my little brother's room. He was playing on his Xbox as always. I don't understand how can he get good if he just plays when he gets home. I shouted a hello to him, but he didn't hear it, because of  his headphones. I waited some seconds, then I didn't care, and I went into my room.
I dropped down my schoolbag to the floor next to my door, and I closed my door.

 I went up to my drawer, and I lit some candles. Yes, I am a candle maniac. I have like thirty in my room, in different places. I jumped in my chair, what was in front of my desk. I opened up my computer, and while it starts, I turned on my desk lamp, mood lightings, and ofcourse my salt lamp.

 I opened my schedule about the last one month, and I ran trough about what do I have to do today. Well, a lot. I sighed and I stood up to get my books. As I got back I started studying. The time went slow, I looked at my clock every ten minutes. Even tho I love to study, the last parts are hard for me too. Somehow I got into it, and after one hour, I decided to have a break.
It was getting dark so as I stood up I straight went to my window to pull my curtain, so no one can see what I am doing.

I went down to Mom, but Dad was there too.
-Oh Hello Dad! I didn't see your car, so I didn't know you are home.- I said while I went to hug him.
-Oh its nothing. Scar.- He was the only in the family that called me "Scar", even tho I love that nickname, and I adore him to call me that. My Mom said when I came up with the nickname idea, that it sounds weird, so she calls me Scarlett, or Lett. I dont really like that, but I don't care. Mom and Dad were drinking wine as usual. When my Dad gets home they always sit down to discuss what happend that day. My Father works in a oil refinery, and my Mother works at a normal office.
-By the way, did you see that a family moved in to the house next to us?-  My Dad asked. I was suprised, because the first owner was a creepy old man,and the house looks a little old, because the old man never maintained the house, and I was suprised because I didn't noticed it on my walk to home, maybe the reason is that I was diving deeply in my toughts, and I didn't pay attention about what happening around me.
-No, I didn't know, but we should go greet them tommorow!- Said Mom with a big smile.
-Honey, I don't think thats a good idea. Remember how we scared our right side neighbour with this? Now they think that we want to kill them.- Said my dad a little worried. I almost laughed, but somehow, I did not.
-You are right.- My mom's smile faded away. I went to a window to see, if its true. And it was. A family car parked in front of the house, with boxes in it. I think they didn't parked in the garage, because there is a lot box in there too, but just my toughts.
I saw no one. All the blind's was closed, but I was able to see that the lights are on, because the blinds let out a little light, so a family definetly lives here from now on. Great.
-Maybe there will be a boy for you, Scar.- Dad winked at me.
-Oh gosh! Mom was poking me with the same topic. But just like I said to her: I didn't find love in my life, that won't happen now.- And I went up to my room. On the way while I was going up the stairs I heard my Dad saying.
-Teens, they are always so unpredictable.-  I was upset for a little time, but I knew I have to continue studying.

 It was around 7pm, when I heard my Mom saying dinner is ready. i rushed down, because I was really hungry.
-It's a really big problem if I eat in my room? I can't waste any minute I can study.- I asked worried.
-I tought you could not study for a dinner with your family.- Said my Dad. I wanted to sit down when my Mom said.
-Oh come on Richard, let her go study, there won't be happening at this dinner anyways.- Yes, My dad's name is Richard.
-Thank you mom!- I gave her a kiss on her cheeks and got some food on my plate. Turned out that only Dad and Mom was eating at the table. Because I was studying, and my brother was playing with his friends while eating in his room. Good for him. I started eating my chiken strips while reading the history book. 

Twenty mintues passed, and my brother got louder and louder. I was ignoring it first, but then I couldn't take anymore and I went to him. I slam-oppened the door, and I screamed shut up. He looked at me like im an idiot.
-Get out!- He shouted back.
-FINE!- And I slammed the door. I stood in front of the door. What gotten into me? Maybe Mom and Dad made me upset with the boyfriend thing? They did before but I wasn't too bothered because of it.

 I went back quiet, but at the moment I closed the door I heard the neighbour's door slam open. I went to my window and peeked out a little. A boy rushed in the room. Around my age. He had medium length hair, black and really curly. He looked tall, and he was skinny. He looked really mad. 
- I DONT FUCKING CARE! I HATE YOU!- He screamed. It was that loud that I clearly heard it. I was staring at  him when he suddenly looked at my window. I quickly hid under the window. I started at the floor, and I almost burst out laughing . I felt so stupid, and good at the same time.
