chapter twenty six, UNKNOWN NUMBER
The loud ringing phone made Angelia Montgomery shoot out from her sleep. She cursed to herself for leaving the ringer that loud and rubbed her eyes before grabbing the phone, an incoming call from Kat displayed on the screen.
"Hello?" Angelia answered in a mumble, the girl leaning over to grab the discarded water bottle on her side table and downed the last two shots.
"where are you? class started five minutes ago" Angelia pulled the phone away from her ear and let out a sigh. "shit, okay ill be there" She before hanging up the phone and tipping her head back.
Angel grabbed the bottle of adderall pills she scored from a student that she kept next to her bed and opened it, quickly pouring a two into her hand and taking them, leaning off her bed to search for the bottle of vodka she got from the same student.
The cap twisted, the cracking of the seal like music to Angelia Montgomery's ears. She took a long sip from it before setting it under her bed and making a mental note to switch it to a water bottle later that day.
Kat sent another text and she rolled her eyes, typing a response while simultaneously trying to pull on the school uniform skirt.
The girl threw a school sweater over her tank top and looked at herself in the mirror, giving herself a once over. Her shoes were last and she cursed as they got stuck on her heel. "mother fucker" She let out, leaning over and tugging them on with force.
Angel groaned as she left the room, making her way through the building before crossing the quad and heading for class. She slowed her pace when she was down the hall, fixing her ponytail quickly and brushing out her skirt. She looked down at her phone one final time before walking into her second-period class.
"you're late" The teacher announced when Angel walked in and she rolled her eyes, not sparring a second glance as she moved to the back of the room where Kat was sitting.
"You really rushed here didn't you? Must be the flash" Kat sarcastically joked, her hand moving to fix the collar on Angelia's shirt. The brunette gave her a look and Kat held up her hands in defence.
"Late again Mr. Sinclair" Angel's eyes trailed up to the front. The boy must have felt her gaze because he looked right at her. She could see the recognition in his eyes as he made his way to the back of the class.
"There's an uneven number of students so join any of the pairs," The teacher told the boy and Angelia felt herself shift over ever so slightly. The blonde boy smiled and grabbed a chair from another lab station, bringing it over and sitting next to her.
