The next morning I get ready, I change into a navy sweater and jeans along with my black converse. I go to my bathroom and brush my hair before tying it back with a clamp, I brush my teeth and wash my face before going back to my room.
I walk over to my desk, sitting down before opening the drawer. I take out my mascara and eyelash curler because those are really the only things I use, makeup wise. I've tried out lots of makeup but nothing ever really works for me, just mascara. I stick to what I'm comfortable with.
I put on my usual cheap pearl necklace before I hear Jane calling me. I stand up, grabbing my bag and phone then quickly walk out of my room and down the stairs to Jane who's in the kitchen.
"Did you call me?" I ask, walking to the countertop and Jane looks back to me as she stands in front of the fridge, shaking some weird green drink.
"I didn't have time to make breakfast and I really got to get to work, do you need money? You can get breakfast somewhere on the way to school." Jane asks as she grabs her things off of the counter. I pick up her keys, holding them out to her.
"No, thank you though. I have money and I also have work straight after school." I say and she nods, quickly walking closer to me to get her keys. She kisses the side of my head then leaves the kitchen.
"I'll see you later, enjoy school." She speaks before I hear the front door shutting.
I have two jobs, I work at a store in town on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, so basically I have school those days then I have to rush home to change and get ready for work. I work as a bartender on Saturday nights from nine to one and sometimes on Fridays. Jane doesn't have a lot of money, but she always offers me some. I always refuse and say I have money even when I don't. I save most of my money so I can save up and move out, I love living with Jane but I'd prefer to live by myself in a small apartment with Sadie...maybe with someone else too, a woman—or a man.
Probably not a man. The only man that I would be okay living with is Charlie. A man other than him in my life...in a romantic way specifically, is something I can't really imagine.
Maybe one day...

I close my car door before my keys slip out of my hand...I pick them up, locking my car before I spot Charlie waiting at the school entrance. I don't know how me and Charlie are friends, he's very different from me. He's outgoing, loud, popular, you could say since he's friends with everyone. I'm shy mostly and Charlie is my only friend as I said before. But again, I'm fine with that.
"Look who shows up! I thought you crashed your car, you took so long." He rolls his eyes and I roll mine too, nearly tripping up the step which causes Charlie to burst out laughing as he hits my arm repeatedly.
Charlie's dramatic, if it wasn't obvious...And I'm quite clumsy, I wish it was on purpose.
"Charlie, shush." I say and he keeps laughing loudly, I feel my face heating up from the embarrassment and half because I'm annoyed at him. I groan and walk past him up the steps and through the school doors which are opened.
"Diana, wait!" He shouts and runs into the school after me, he wraps his hand around my shoulder and I ignore him but I don't push him away. We start walking to our lockers before class starts, I have math first. Great.
"Oh my god." I hear a high pitched voice coming from behind me. Me and Charlie exchange an understanding look.
Ciara.
Ciara is the 'popular girl' who everyone obsesses over. She's blonde, tall, blue eyes like me but she's honestly perfect. In my opinion...she's the most annoying person I've ever met. I'm a nice person! Not at all judgy...But I cannot stand her. Everyone has somebody that they don't like and ciara just so happens to be that person for me.
