SEPTEMBER 8TH 1979
LUCY'S POV

I ended up falling asleep. The morning ritual began.

BANG

BANG

I groaned. I didn't want to go to school. 'FUCK I FORGOT TO PICK UP MOLLY' I shot up from bed and ran to Molly's room. I knocked on the door "Molly! Molly! Hey I'm sorry I forgot to pick you up ok? I'm really.. really sorry..."

Her door opened and I immediately hugged her "I'm so sorry I shouldn't have.. it-" I sighed "I'm so sorry" I released the hug and bent down to her eye level.

"Look today after school, we'll go get some ice cream ok?" I questioned. Molly's eyes had lit up, and she nodded with a huge smile on her face.

"Alright, go get ready" I gave her a sympathetic smile. I can't believe I forgot about her. I walked back to my room and saw Jamie reading a magazine. "What was that about?" She asked me.

"Oh I uh.. I forgot to pick Molly up from school yesterday" I said shamefully as I dug for clothes. "What?! how could you do that? She could have been kidnapped!" She said as she threw the magazine at me.

"Oh calm down no one is getting kidnapped" I sighed "she's fine ok? I apologized and we're getting ice cream on our way home"

"Oh calm down no one is getting kidnapped" I sighed "she's fine ok? I apologized and we're getting ice cream on our way home"

I walked through the doors. I don't know why I even went. I end up ditching anyway. I walk up to my locker. Jamie came up to me.

" Ok don't look but Stacy Cunningham is like alll over Vance right now" Jamie said dragging out the 'L'. She knew about the kiss with Vance. I explained it on our way to school.

The moment she said that I wanted to look. So I did. I peaked over my left shoulder and sure enough Stacy Cunningham was kissing him. I'll admit it kinda hurt. But I'd never say that out loud.

I rolled my eyes "So? I don't care what he does" and slammed my locker shut. Jamie didn't look so convinced. "You sure? You look pretty jealous.." she pointed out.

Boys normal check me out. I don't know what it was. I dress like a 12 year old boy. Maybe it was the fact that I was dangerous maybe they liked that. Whatever it is I was going to use it to my advantage.

Tommy Hetfield just so happened to be walking past my locker. He was ALWAYS checking me out. I grabbed his wrist, pulling him towards me. He was shocked, but also intrigued. "I've seen you check me out tommy" I said in a flirtatious tone.

He smiled "yeah I have, you're really pretty and I.." I tuned out his voice. He was really a bore. However he's pretty popular so it would definitely get Vance's attention. I noticed tommy glancing at my lips.

"If you want to kiss me just go for it" I said cutting him off in his sentence. His eyes widened in shock. "Really!" He was overwhelmed with excitement. He managed to compose himself. "Yeah ok, I'll kiss you" he said and he leaned in. We both closed our eyes.

And our lips met. It's nothing like kissing Vance. I could hear people whistling and howling at us. My hands wrap around his neck. I slowly peek one eye open to see Vance staring at us. His eyes burning into the back of Tommy's skull.

I closed my eye and smiled into the kiss. The bell rung and Tommy pulled away. "Woah.. that was.. your.. woah" he said in awe. I patted him on the shoulder and walked to my class.

‹·~·~·›

When I got back from the excruciating science class I went back to my locker, not to switch out books, but rather to see if I had to make Vance jealous again. So I kept my bag on my shoulder. However Vance came up to me.

"So you and Tommy?" He asked with his arms crossed. I scoffed "You and Stacy?" I said giving him the same attitude. It was silent. " Look, I'm sorry about yesterday" he said rolling his eyes. He wasn't sorry. I could tell.

I just nodded my head. "Y'know that was a real bitch move" he said. "What was?" I asked confused.

"Kissing Tommy?" He said as if it was obvious.

That part got on my nerves. " Oh like you kissing Stacy was any different?" I was starting to get annoyed. He was starting to get defensive. "Y'know what? We shouldn't be friends anymore if you're gonna be a total bitch" he said rasing his voice at me.

Now I was really pissed. Who does he think he is? The nerve of this guy. He started to step closer to me. "Oh I'm the bitch? Fuck you Hopper" and I pushed him. He started to stumble backwards. People were forming around us. My bag was still on my shoulder, so I grabbed it. I wrapped the strap around my hand and swung it at him. Hitting the side of his head.

Everyone started screaming. They were laughing and cheering. I dropped my bag and tackled Vance to the floor. I got next to him and started to beat the shit out of him. Punching his face and stomach. Letting all of my anger out. He was finally able to pull me off of him.

He grabbed a fistfull of my hair and pulled me off. He was only able to land a few punched on me, only giving me a busted lip and a bloody nose.

Tommy had pulled him off.

"Tommy what the hell are you doing?" I asked and got up from the ground. People started to disappear, going to their classes and whatnot. "I was just.. uh" I scoffed at his lame ass excuse. I grabbed my bag and walked out the school building.

I didn't need Vance. I was perfectly fine before we were friends. I don't need him anymore more.

And I slammed the doors shut.
