INDIA MEYER

~~  But I'm the one to blame for this burning pain ~~

'It's going to be so boring without you. Now i wont have anyone to fight with.' My brother , Nick , said pouting

'Aren't you going to college next year anyways?' I said eating some of dad's delicious Autumn Salad.

'UCLA awaits me.' He winked at me , his ego taking over.

'And Fork's awaits Indi.' My mum said , staring at her Fish & Chips we got on the way home.

'Will you drop it Heidi?' My dad said , taking some of the salad onto his plate.

'Yeah mum , at least it's not juvie.' Nick said , eating like an animal.

He will forever and always be a slob.

My mum didn't answer , only look at me with watery eyes. I had enough of her disappointment. I had done everything she groomed me to do and now she was freaking over 1 year of anger mangement.

'I'm going to finish this up in my room. Suburgatory is staring.' I lied , taking my plate.

I placed my plate onto my bed and turned on the bed. Turns out i wasn't lying , Suburgatory was actually playing.

I heard a knock on my door , making me sigh. This better not be mum.

'Come in.' I said , trying to get it together.

'Hey it's Chris.' My dad failed at trying to be cool.

'Chris Meyer , it that you?!' I fangirled over my dad.

'I'm married.' He said showing me his ring.

I giggled at our little joke. We always got on and i couldn't ask for more. My dad is a full package.

'Dont look at your mum. She wanted you to have a clear name for UCLA.' My dad said , setting his plate next to me. Seems like he also left the table.

'There's no way im going to the same college as Nick.' I ate most of the autmn salad.

'Columbia?' My dad suggested clearing his plate within seconds.

'Hell yes.' I pushed away the fish and chips. I just wasn't feeling it.

'Come on lets pack , you leave tomorrow.' My dad pulled the suitcase from the top of my closet.

I sighed getting reminded that it was rainy in Forks.

****************************************

How did my life end up this way?

I'm now sitting on my bed , waiting for my roomate , Makayla , in Forks , In an anger management center. And guess what? It was raining.

Saying goodbye to my family wasn't hard as i expected. My mum was silent all of the time , Dad and Nick were pretty cool about it.

A girl with who looks an awful lot like a Victoria's Secret Model , walks in. She had platinium blonde hair and rather dark lipstick. She had a hell lot of luggage in her hands , obviously sturggling. I got up to help her , only getting a glare from her.

'May i help you?' She eyed me suspciously.

'Actually may i help you Makayla?' I said crossing my arms. We both needed this anger management thing. We both got pissed off at communication.

'Sorry , this is why i got sent here.' She said eyeing our very vintage dorm room.

'I know , i beat up an old friend of mine.' I said , making sure everything was in place. I had set up my bed , placed my personal items in the furniture.

A teacher came and just like i had pictured it , she is one of those really calm hippies. Apparently we had no classes today and she just passed by to introduce herself. Her name is Julisa.

'Got in a fight with my neighbor. Who the fuck does she think she is that she beats my dog with a stick!' She said throwing most of her duffel bags onto her bed. Her unmade bed.

Sorry but im a neat freak.

'Just because the dog bit her leg dosen't mean she gets to beat it up. It was a German Shepard.' Makayla explained herself , taking her combat boots off.

I had time study her face. Heavy black eyeliner , a small tattoo in a shape of a heart on her neck and black was everywhere on her clothes. A leather jacket with a grey t-shirt with black ripped jeans.

'Don't worry i dont always dress like this. Just for today i went all punk. Everyday i have a different theme. It makes life more fun.' She replied to my studying.

I only shifted on my bed , deciding to get up. I knew she wasn't lying when i saw different varierties of clothes in her closet.

'Okay so your name is India?' She said looking at the paper in her hands. 

'Oh yea but please call me Indi , i prefer it more.' I said simply , as she nodded her head.

'This place is pretty neat for an anger management center. I saw it's name , OCC. Wonder what it means.' She said , taking her jacket off.

'I heard we dont have class today.' I said , seeing that she was taking numourous books out of a suitcase that i hadn't noticed

'I know. Oh , These are just random books i like to give as gifts. Perfect last minute gifts.' She said winking in my direction.

'You're awfully quite for my type , come on lets find people.' She hung her arm over my shoulder , walking towards the courtyard.

I seriously think that i would rather go to juvie than an anger management center. Like i would see more angry people and fight more lol. I know the shit that goes down in the centers , you know i am the author
