Ugh.

I rub my eyes continuously and hide under my pillow. I don't wanna go to school. I don't want to wake up. I don't want to go down and have to deal with everything. I stare at the ceiling, thinking of all of the things I have to do. 

What the hell is my problem? I think of yesterday, my first day in school. Everyone was looking at me. If only looks could kill, right? I sit up and sigh. I don't have any choice, I have to go to school or everything won't fall in place.

I get up and fix my bed neatly. Well, that's a first.

I walk to the bathroom and stand in the shower. I step out of my clothes and turn on the water. Ah, cold water feels good. Very relaxing. I finish taking a shower and stand in front of my closet. You see, I don't really care if I wear the same old sh** everyday. As long as it's appropriate and decent. And of course, If I'm comfortable with it. 

I blow dry my hair and tie it in a high pony tail. I apply a simple eyeliner and mascara, completely satisfied with my appearance, I grab my bag and head down the stairs. I run to the door, not wanting to 'ruin' my day with mom's non-stop nagging. I fix myself and plug my earphones in, blasting the music and not caring about a thing as I walk my way to hell..

Er, I mean school.

I walk through the glares of some students. Ugh, what now? I just came here yesterday, for fuc*'s sake. I roll my eyes as I head to my locker. Since I'm feeling a bit confident today, why not make the most of it, right? I get my stuff and lock my locker right away, heading straight into the bathroom. 

I apply my plum lipstick from my purse and put on my beanie. I take a deep breathe and walk out the bathroom, not wanting to talk to anyone. 8:23am. 2 more minutes, I walk quickly to class, I don't wanna be late, jeez.

Woah. What. The. Hell.

Why the hell is everyone looking at me like I just went here today? The girls snickered at me. Some boys were looking at me up and down. Uhm, what? I take a deep breath and walk to the back, sitting on my usual seat. Someone remind me why I don't have any friends. Pfft. 

Out of nowhere, Luke bursts into the room, along with the other boys, laughing. "Mr. Hemmings, if you and your friends want to have a good time and just laugh, then get out of my class!" Mrs. Heather warns them, obviously annoyed and frustrated. 

Her eyebrows are knitted together and she looks like she has smoke coming out of her ears. Luke sits beside me and stares in awe. 

"Uh, may I..help you?" I ask. I tried as much as possible to not look like I'm having that time of the month. He blinks his eyes, like he just woke up. 

"Um, are you new here?" His eyes are knitted together, confused. Wow, he forgot me already? Ouch, I'm quite hurt. 

"No, we met yesterday? Didn't we?" He looks like he doesn't understand anything that comes out of my mouth so I tell him directly. 

"It's me. Emerald?" I say, waving my hand in front of him, hoping he remembers me. His mouth opens a little. 

"Emerald!?" Ashton butts in, looking at me weirdly. 

"Yes. The uh, one and only? I guess?"

"Woah. What happened? Your boyfriend broke up with you?" Michael asks, his head slightly tilted. 

"Sorry, what did you say?" Me? With a boyfriend? Pfft, as if. I'm done with boys for now. I've been told that i'm pretty but i don't actually believe it. 

"According to the internet, when a girl breaks up with a guy, she becomes extremely hot and gorgeous. So did you?"

"No, I don't have a boyfriend, jeez. I just decided to i don't know, fix myself?" I say, smiling at the boys. 

"You should 'fix yourself' often, yeah?" Luke butts in, resting his head on his hand. 

"Uh, thanks?" I mutter. I'm not really used to being complimented. I think they're all lies. 

Lies, lies, lies. 

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + 

"Class, dismissed!" Everyone shuffles out of the class room, clearly thankful that school's over...for now. 

"Hey, emerald! We're having a band practice later, wanna come?" Ashton asks. 

"I don't know,ashton. I mean, I don't even know where-"

"I'll pick you up, 5pm?" Calum offers. I've never had any friends before, and I don't think mom will notice I won't be home, so why not? 

"Yeah, sure. But how-"

"I know where you live." He says. "Wait, oh god that sounded creepy, I mean, I know where you live, I saw you walk out of your house earlier." 

"Okay, so uh,  I'll see you later?" "Yeah, see you later."

I hope it won't be like last time.
