Only You- (Robin Arellano x you)

Chapter 18- Fuck my life

Tuesday 13th October 1976

*beep* *beep* *beep*

I groaned and slammed my hand down on it, Ow, my neck hurts like hell, fuck.

Rubbing it I go over to my vanity mirror and turn the light on to it, shitting hell. My neck had red and purple bruises in finger shapes across it, if I didn't know what happened I would have wondered what a rough night I had, and with who. I opened my draws to try and find a foundtation or conceler. Foundation and conceler pallet, perfect. I then applied the concealers correcting the colours, and then I put on more foundation than a burn victim. Once it looked like my skin I picked out a long sleeved top to try and make it less obvious. I got this, I'll be fine.

"So what did she say?" Ziggy shouted as I walked up my driveway with my bike. "Huh?". "I asked what your mum said about the sleepover?" She said looking at me expectently. "Oh-oh yeah she said yes." I said smiling. "EEEEEEEEEE" She squealed. "I LOVE SLEEPOVERS ON SCHOOL NIGHTS" She grinned as I hopped on my bike. "El where th fuck did you get those boots they're gorgeous" Ziggy said her mouth was dropped as she looked at them. I was wearing the new boots my brother Luke had gifted me for my birthday, I have a feeling his wife Nancy had picked them out, but it was sweet all the same, I missed them not coming to my Quince.

The boots went up to my shins, they were brown leather with flowers on a vine climbing they're way up on the side of the boot, they had a heel, and an extra chunk on the bottom of the shoe, I had been too scared to wear them out, not because i was scared I would fall over, I'm a badass in heels, but because they were ziggys words, gorgeous. And however I did know I would somehow manage to ruin them. I had paired the boots with a mini denim skirt, a red long sleeved top and one of my dads old balck jackets. i was wearing medium hoop size earrings a couple of layers of necklaces and some rings. My hair was in two french braids, my whispy curls on either side that no matter how hard I tried always stayed out when I tied my hair back, they were cute though.

"Birthday gift from Luke's family" I said smiling. "Bro we have perfect fucking intuition." I laughed as I pointed out her outfit which was  a denim mini skirt  and a green top and a beige coloured hoodie her blonde hair plaited into a single braid. We laughed then looked at eachother in realization. "AGHHH WAIT WHAT IF DONNA IS MATCHING TOO!" She shouted, I gasped and we laughed hysterically before riding off as fast as we could, this was the first and last time we ever got to school that fast apart from when guys would sell icecreams from there vans.

"DONNA" Ziggy shouted. "DONNA, DONNA,DONNA" I shouted even louder as we sprinted to homeroom. "DONNA MARY JAMES" Ziggy yelled her hands cupped around her mouth making her sound like a foghorn. We reached homeroom and stood in the doorway out of breath, "AGGHGH SEE I TOLD YOU PERFECT FUCKING INTUITION." I laughed hysterically. Donna had two braids that created a sort of crown around her head with a black bow attached to it, the rest of her straight brown hair falling down her back, she was wearing a mini denim skirt and a pink long sleeve top, with her iconic mary jane shoes.

She turned to us, rolled her eyes and giggled and turned to Robin? She made a comment to him, to which he laughed slightly and looked over to us, I quickly turned away. Donna came over. "What the actual fuck guys." She said laughing. "We're all matching with our skirts!" Ziggy says clinging onto her arm and jumping up and down like a child. Robin walked back over to his own desk and sat down. I laughed as Donna helped me up, "I swear we share a brain" Don said laughing as we all made our way over to our desks. I felt someones eyes on me as I sat down, and turned my head. Robin. We locked eyes, I smiled, he returned it.

I turned back around but still felt his stare burning holes into my skull. Don't turn back don't turn back. I looked down into my hands.

"Isn't that right El?"
