I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock ringing next to me. I groaned as I turned it off and stretched before sitting up. 6:30am, another day of the same routine at school. I got up, made my bed and then went to my bathroom, attached to my room. When I finished I washed my hands, face, brushed my teeth and hair. I went back to my room to get some clothes out of my closet. A pair of black skinny jeans, a band shirt, my black Converse, and my black hoodie. I laid everything on my bed before grabbing my underwear out of my dresser, and then getting dressed. When I was done I went back to the bathroom to do my makeup. Nothing extraordinary, just some black eyeshadow and smudged black eyeliner with some Chapstick. Once I thought that I looked decent enough I grabbed my backpack, phone, MP3 player, and my headphones before heading out of my room and out of the door to go catch the bus at the end of my street.
6:59am, I just made it. A minute later the bus came and I got on. I found a seat to myself and sat down before putting my headphones in and letting myself drown into the music. Soon we were at my personal Hell, high school. I'm finally a senior which means that I just have this year and then I can escape this place for good. I went to my locker and quickly put away what I wouldn't need for my first few classes before heading to my homeroom. I sat down at my usual seat in the back of the class so no one would pay attention to me. Soon the bell rang and everyone was piling into the room. As the morning announcements were playing this tall lanky white dude came strolling into the room.
"You're late again Mr. Colson." The teacher Mrs. Phillips said with an irritated voice. "At least I showed up today." He said not caring and just sat down at the desk next to me.
I just focused on what I was drawing while still listening to music in one ear. Once the announcements were over Mrs. Phillips started teaching today's lesson. I was coping down the notes that she was writing when I felt a tap on my shoulder.
"Yea?" I answered not looking away from the board so that I don't miss anything. "Can I borrow a pen or something?" Colson asked me.
Without looking I reached into my bag and grabbed an extra pen that I had and headed it to him. He went to grab it but it fell. I went to pick it up and he accidentally grabbed my finger instead because we went for it at the same time. He quickly pulled away as I grabbed the pen and this time gave him my attention as I handed it to him. He smiled and nodded as a thank you and I gave a small smile back before I went back to my note taking. As she was just talking I looked over to see if he was able to get all of the notes. But when I looked over he wasn't writing notes, he was writing what looked like a poem. I couldn't help but try to read it.
"Ms. Savannah, headphones in class" Mrs. Phillips said, making me look up at her. "But the music helps me focus." I tried to argue. "I think your last test results would say otherwise. Take them out now." She said and the class went into giggles and chatter about me as I took the headphones off and put them into my hoodie pocket.
I felt so embarrassed that I put my head down and tried to cover my face with my hair and hand as she continued the lesson. I only failed that test because I didn't have time after my double shift at work to study. I started to put away everything except my notebook and pen so she thought that I was still paying attention. But really I just couldn't wait to get out of that class. I carefully looked over to try to read the poem that Colson was writing. Woah, that's really good. The bell began to ring and I got up and booked it out of that classroom as fast as I could to get to my next one.
It was finally lunch time so I quickly switched my books and headed to the cafeteria for my first meal of the day. Once I got my food I headed outside to go sit at an empty table by myself like usual. As I was eating I saw Colson and some other guys walking to a different table to eat. I really must've been hungry because I finished with enough time to just sit and relax. Something that I don't get to do often.
"Look guys it's Slutty Savannah'' A girl said. I looked up to see Ashley and her dumb friends. "Careful Ash, if you stand too close you might get herpes." Courtney said, pulling Ashley closer to her. "Stand any closer to HER, you just might." I said under my breath. "What did you say slut?" Courtney asked, getting pissed. "What? Did I touch a nerve? Must be true then." I said fake surprise. "Shut up before I make you," she said, grabbing my shirt. "Damn Courtney, I didn't know that you liked it rough." I said, biting my bottom lip. "Eww. Like anyone would be attracted to a slut freak like you." She said shoving me backwards before they started walking away. "Aww love you too" I said, flipping them off.
I looked over to see Colson and his friends laughing while looking at me. Great, another group of people that will probably agree with them. I internally groaned while putting my headphones on and packing up my stuff back into my backpack before walking back into the building.
I was able to finish the rest of my day ok before going to my locker and grabbing all of my homework. 2:15pm, luckily I'm early for my bus to work. I started walking to the bus stop by the school and waited for it to arrive. When it soon did I got on, paid, and sat down before starting some of my homework. I packed up my homework before I pressed the button for the bus to stop at the next stop.
3:15pm, I have 15 minutes to get ready for work in the break room. I put my school stuff into my locker while taking my work uniform out before going to the bathroom and changing. After I changed I cleaned up my makeup a bit before going back into the break room to put my school clothes in my locker.
3:25pm, I went to the time clock and punched in a little early so that I could get started. I work at this little dinner on the border of the city. I have been working here since my freshman year of high school when I had to start helping with the financial stuff at home. Today at work was about as normal as it could get with this job.
On my way home I was able to finish my homework so that I could get some rest when I got home. I walked into the door and they were already screaming at each other. I just quietly closed the door and headed to my room. As soon as I closed the door I locked it and went to put my school stuff away. I went to the bathroom to take a shower before bed.
They're relationship is so bipolar. One day they love each other, the next they're screaming and fighting like this. I finished my shower and got ready for bed before laying down and putting my headphones in and letting the music take me anywhere but here.
