"HELP!" I yell. Someone is chasing me with a knife I can't see their face it's too dark. They laugh as they say "I'm gonna get you" over and over again. He's getting closer and closer. He tackles me stabbing over and over again all I hear is me screaming- then I wake up.
The screaming was my alarm. I groan as I push the blankets off of me. I tie my hair back and get dressed in a black skull tank top with shorts tights and combat boots.
I go downstairs grab an apple and my school bag and leave the house without my foster parent waking up- thank God.
I start walking to the bus stop where I see Jess. She waves to me with a big smile on her face. I wave back with a small fake smile.
"Hey Lyss! Are you excited for the field trip today?" Jess asks.
"I can't go I umm.. Have to retake the math exam."
"Aw that sucks."
I couldn't tell her the truth that I couldn't get the money because my foster dad would have just hit me. There was no way he would have given me the money.
The bus finally came and we got on and sat together- like always.
"Do you smell that? It smells like Alyssa shit her pants." I heard one of the popular girls, Jenny, whisper to her boyfriend, Cameron.
"I don't smell anything beside that whole bottle of perfume on you. Leave Alyssa alone you don't even know her." Cameron responded.
I felt the heat rising to my face and a smirk appeared out of no where. I have always had a crush on Cameron. When we were little we were best friends- when my mom still had me- we would hang out everyday. Then I moved to a foster home in Ohio and we lived in Florida. But after 7 foster homes I came back to Miami.
-----------------------------
"Miss Smith, I heard you would be hanging out with me instead of going on the field trip. Money issues again?" the guidence counselor, Mrs. Read, said.
"Yeah money has been tight lately with bills and food and stuff.." I mumbled without looking at her.
"I'm sorry to hear that Alyssa."
"Mhm."
--------------------------------
Since the field trip was only to a potato chip factory it was only half the day so we had 4 classes today. My first class today was history, I loved history I have Jess in that class.
"Everyone please take your seats." Mrs. Jennings said.
"Hey Alyssa, who's barn did you sleep in last night? Is your foster parent a horse now? Ahahah" Jenny whispered to me. Not really whispering if the whole class heard it and laughed.
"Oh Jenny I didn't realize that was you with that unibrow.. I thought you were Charlie." I hissed back. She glared at me and I smirked back. The class ooed with my comeback.
---------------------------
I'm in my last class the day just flew by because I was zoned out for most of it. I hated this class- math- the only thing good that came out of it was that Cameron was assigned next to me.
"Hey Alyssa, there is this huge party tonight at Zach's. You should come." Cameron whispered to me.
"Definitely." I say back.
--------------------------
I told Jess about the party she agreed that we should go.
Tonight is going to be awesome.
