enemies entwined 💜

chapter two | i texted georgia f*cking brookes | 💜

EMILIE:

my name is emilie mclean, im 15 years old, in year 11 at middlelake academy. my three best mates are noah- james brown, katy henderson and harper larthwell.
i dislike georgia brookes. i don't hate her, but i don't like her.

i can't believe i'm doing this but she's my only hope. i have no friends in my class, and i refuse to be a loner. so i text her

i text georgia fucking brookes.

me- "hi georgia. its me, emilie. i was hoping that maybe we could hang out a bit this year, i have no friends in my class and your the only person i know."

georgia- "oh so i'm just a last resort to you. thanks. i don't want to talk to you if that's all you see me as."

me- "you know thats not what i meant georgia."

georgia- "just piss off emilie. im trying to get ready, i'm not wasting my time on you. if i wanted to talk to you, i would in person."

emilie- "ok"

jesus fucking christ. i didn't know she was such a moody bitch. anyways, i'm applying the last step to my makeup routine— lip gloss. once that's done i go grab my uniform. i don't want to go to school, knowing the only person that i know in my class is a moody bitch to me.

once i'm dressed i then do my hair. i do two tiny plaits, and keep my hair down.
i realise its 6:45, i need food. i go across the hallway to the kitchen and go in the cupboard to find the pancake mix. i turn the hob on and pour the mix into a pan. whilst thats cooking i look for the nutella. chocolate on pancakes has been my comfort food since i was a toddler. i just really enjoy pancakes, i then wait about a minute before flipping the pancake. i let the other side cook for about a minute and then grab a plate. i turn the hob off and then slide the pancake onto the plate, i grab a knife and spread the nutella on. then, i grab the knife and a fork and go sit at the table. i scroll on tiktok whilst eating. once im finished, its just gone 7am. i go to the kitchen with the dirty plate and cutlery and place them on the side. i grab my new school bag and take it to my room down the hallway, i put the black tote bag on the floor of my room and grab all my essentials; a pencil case, emergency kit, whiteboard, reading books, and my hand warmers. its september and its usually getting colder in the uk. i make sure i grab my coat and shoes and place them by my bag. i then go and sit on my bed until 7:40. i usually catch the school bus near the costa by my house at around 8:10, so i get my shoes, coat and bag on. its now 7:45 and it takes a couple minutes to walk to costa. i order my hot chocolate and a sandwich which i'll save for later, when she walks in.

i really didn't want this to happen, when about an hour ago she was being bitchy with me over text. luckily though, my drink is ready, so i pay and leave. its now 7.52 and i start walking down the road to the bus stop. i finally get there and sit in the bus shelter, when in the corner of my eye, she's there.

when did emilie get the bus?
shes always driven to school.
i dont ask any probing questions but stay sat down, drinking my drink. luckily, the bus was a bit early today, so i get on the bus and go sit in my normal seat. i place my bag next to me as per usual, when i see her walk past. she goes and sits opposite me and puts her headphones on. i assume she's listening to taylor swift. she's loved taylor since she was 3. she found a real connection with her music.

i drink my drink, and scroll on pinterest. i have nothing better to do, since my tiktok doesn't work when i'm on the bus.

im so glad my our school isn't far away, its about 20 minutes on the bus. we get to the last stop, when i see one of my best mates; harper; get on the bus. she always sits behind me and we gossip, but instead she sits behind me and practically falls asleep for 10 minutes. i have to kick her when we are nearing the school bus stop, and she wakes up.
"holy shit em"
"sorry harps but you fell asleep— don't tell me you did an all nighter"
"nooo" harper says unconvincingly.
"you need to get sleep or you'll keep getting detentions for falling asleep in lessons!!"
"whoops"

we get off the bus when i see georgia's minions waiting at the bus stop. she runs up and hugs them. ew.
