Runaway: Book 1: Chasing Butterflies (#Wattys2015)

6: Shayna

Thunder thooms in the sky tonight, a constant flash begins the thunder. My mother told me it was the angels bowling and when they got a strike, lightning struck. But none of that phases me at the moment, I'm a lesbian. My parents are going to assholes about it when they find out, which they won't since Frank is ignored half the time. My parents believed his blank white pupils were a sign of the devil, since the Devil had white pupils like Frank. My parents have been torment to us, I wouldn't be surprised if Westboro Church ever gave them a job offer because they seem to act like those people. I think I should convince them to move to Kentucky without me and Frank. Maybe they can get a job as the preachers at the Westboro Church.

I lie in bed a light sheet covers my thin, fatless body. Boys would love to have sex with me, since I'm skinny, but I'm lesbian so I can't. My girlfriend is Kiera, a average weight Italian girl with freckles riddled across her face. My parents just think were friends, but really were more than that.

I text Ella,

Me: Hey, how's it going?

Ella: Hey! Haven't heard from you in a while!

Me: Yeah, I'm a lesbian.

Ella: No shit, Kiera loves you!

Me: angry emoji face.

Me: Get out of my business!

Ella: Ok, btw I'm having the baby in 8 months

I roll my eyes, I text her back.

Me: R u going to have a see section or natural.

Ella: See section.

I feel a horrifying sense pulses through my body, a see section is painful according to my older sister, Jillian.  She had one when she got pregnant, my parents were mad and had her boyfriend arrested.        They said he committed  rape  when really Jillian loved him, he's in prison right now because my parents convinced the court that he was guilty.  If my parents find out about this, I'll be locked in my room forever.  No meeting with Kiera, no seeing Ella's baby, and I'll never be able to talk to Frank.

What is fucking going on in my life!
