When Good Girls Meet Bad Endings

TWO

Olivia:

-"Time to get up." Mum opened the curtains and the sun hit my eyes.

I groaned and threw my pillow over my head.

-"Ma,just three more minutes..Go bother Kayan instead..." I said with a yawn.

Mum sighed as she took the pillow away from my hands.

-"Get up now, I won't ask again. I have to leave for work in ten minutes and Dad has already left."

I got up and stretched out my arms. I glanced at the clock. I still had some time to get ready for school.

I walked to my closet and grabbed a red crop top and some blue baggy jeans with stars. My hair wasn't that much of a mess so it could work I guess. I threw my bag over my shoulder and walked downstairs.

-"Morning." I said to Kayan and Stanley before opening the door.

-"Wait for me." Kayan said and got up from his chair.

-"Where's mum? Did she leave already?" I asked as he held the door open for Stanley.

-"Yup left just a while ago. I mean you take forever to get ready." He replied with a cocky smirk.

I rolled my eyes and patted Stanley's hair.

-"Stop doing that. You'll ruin it." He yanked my hand away.

-"Ooh what's the rush?" I asked playfully.

-"I have to get to school you know. I have work to do. And girls to impress." Stanley said before turning on his heel and walking away from us.

I laughed out loud and grabbed Kayan's forearm for support as he stayed there his jaw on the floor.

-"He's not even 13 yet—!" He managed to say as he yanked his arm off me.

Someone walked towards us and threw both his arms on our shoulders.

-"My favourite best friends." Aaron said as he pulled as close. "I adore you both so much."

-"What do you want?" I turned around to face him.

-"How bold of you to assume that I want something!" He made a dramatic face. "Can we skip school today?"

I rolled my eyes. Of course. Kayan shrugged.

-"Why not? Who will see us anyway?"

-"Let me remind you all that Uncle Jamie is our math teacher," I interrupted, "So he will definitely see we are missing."

-"Literally only you and Rui have with him today!" Aaron whined. "Uncle Jamie won't notice." He added.

-"I agree. Come on sis, break out from this monotony!" Kayan shot me a look.

  I folded my arms as my eyes darted from Kayan to Aaron and Aaron to Kayan.

-"Absolutely not. I'm a good girl I don't skip school." I said.

  Kayan shrugged and walked over to a friend while Aaron stayed with me. He leaned forward until he was close enough and his voice dropped to a whisper.

-"Good girls can do bad things sometimes." He locked eyes with me before smiling and walking away with Kayan.

  Was I blushing over something Aaron Reynolds had said?

-"Can't blame you." Stella approached me. "He's one of the most good looking guys in the grade anyway." She shrugged.

-"I don't like Aaron for the love of god. You know that my mom and his dad were friends back in the day and she helped Uncle Connor find his older brother." I started explaining without breath.
