New Kid (chandler riggs)

The Beginning

Slowly opening my eyes,  rubbing them and letting out a deep sigh,  I throw myself up. 

The almost broken, digital alarm clock on my bedside table said 6:45am.

"Crap. " I mummble to myself,  rolling my tired Green eyes.

I stand up and look in my mirror, looking back at me,  I see a mess. A 5'4, sloppy girl with long, brown, wavy hair that reached her bellybutton. It was a morning kind of mess at this point , but only from my much missed slumber. I stumbled over to my phone the sat in its usual position,  next to my bed. The only messages I had where off my Best friend, Avia.

"Hello? Emmi! Answer me! "

I must have fallen asleep talking to her. I didnt bother to reply,  I just checked my social media,  locked my phone and headed down stairs.

The smell of bacon lead me straight to the kitchen. It was my mom, cooking breakfast for me and my brother as usual. My dad was already at work by this time.

"Good morning sleepy head.  And happy Friday! " she said enthusiasticly.

I groaned and sat down at the breakfast bar next to my elder brother, Alfie. He was 17, he dropped out of school when he was 14 to become an actor.  He is doing really good so far, he has starred in a movie and had 3 main rolls in quite popular shows.  I aspired to be like him one day.  But all I can do now is go to acting classes with Avia every sunday.

My mom placed our breakfast in front of us. Alfie rushed his down his throat as fast as his body let him. He had to leave in a few minutes for filming. I just slowly picked at my food and listened to my mom ramble on about how I need to stop staying up late on my phone and playing computer games. I'm a big League Of Legends fan.

After eating,  I went up stairs to get ready.  Having a quick shower and again checking social media. What can I say? The internet needs me. I looked aroud my messy room,  thinking what I want to wear today. Getting to my closet,  all I saw was practically the same thing. I went to pull a t-shirt from my top shelf but it pulled down the rest of the pile.  I went to up the mess but I saw what they had fell on. I knealed down and pushed the mess to the side to reveal old posters. I flicked through numerous band posters and finally... I saw my 'The Walking Dead' posters.  I'm a huge fan.  I cant remember why I took them down. I was an even bigger fan of Chandler Riggs. He played my favourite character, Carl Grimes. It was quite an embarrassing obsession that lasted for about 3 years. But I left the fandom so I could focus more on school instead of drifting off into my imagination, thinking about a boy who didnt even know I existed. I put the posters further back into my closet and picked out my clothes.

After changing out of my weird, girly pyjamas, I wore my Foo Fighters - Wasting Light album t-shirt, a pair of skinny jeans and some white converse. I then went on to doing my hair,  I'm never really good at doing my hair so I just brush it and make sure it doesn't annoy me throughout the day. Now my make-up. I just put enough in to make my skin clear and my eyelashes noticeable. I picked up my phone and went back downstairs.

By this time it was 8:07am. I had to be at school in less than half an hour.  I grabbed my simple, baby blue backpack that my mom had generously stuffed with food and I headed out the front door.

"Have a nice day! " my mom yelled,  just like any other day.

Another day in the life of Emmi Green.
