The NeverLand Kids

Reece went on a date

(Friday)

/Ciara's POV/

The bullying's been getting worse. I want to blame the guys but I can't. It isn't their fault Johnny decided to make bullying me "cool". Or that slutty chicks that Marshall and I are close. It's just not their fault. Its mine. Its my fault everybody hates me. Its my fault I can't do anything right. It is just my fault. I did something I hadn't done in a long time. I dragged a blade against my thigh. Watching the blood color my thigh, before it dripped to the ground, brought me comfort. I cleaned up and laid down. Natalie and I will leave. We'll.... We'll go live with.....uhm...auntie Maddie in Australia. She has enough room. I'll call and asked. I'll find Natalie a great school and one for myself. But I need money. I have enough to sent Natalie and our furniture. But I need enough to get her into an amazing Catholic private school and buy my ticket. As for me, I'll settle for a charter school. My dreams for myself aren't as high as my ones for Natty. I called auntie Maddie. "Hey, sweet cheeks, long time no talk!" She answered. I grinned at her weird greeting. "Nothing much! I was just wondering something."

"Well what is it?"

"Is it okay if Nat and I come live with you?"

"Sure. For your eleventh grade year, right? But if you mean now, it'll be unfair to you and Nat transferring in the middle of the year."

"Yeah. Eleventh grade. See you at the end of the summer!"

"Kay, sweetie. Tell Natalie hi for me!" She hung up, before I could say anything. I held my phone to my chest.-It was a blue and white gravity. I've had it forever- That gives me nine months. Nine months to perfect this plan. Nine months to be what they want. A pretty, smart, closest-to-perfect-as-she-can-get girl.

I'm actually doing this, I thought, sitting in my now-empty closet. Staring at my all, but one, empty suitcases. The one held my hoodies and a pair of hightops. I couldn't bear to sell them. Yep! I sold my entire wardrobe, shoes included. Now I'm sitting in my closet, wearing my favorite Sunday dress and heels. With the envelope of money clutched against my stomach. About three minute of a panic attack. My new wardrobe is arriving on Wednesday, along with my makeup and supplies. All my furniture is arriving Sunday, except my makeup vanity and cabinet, which are arriving on Tuesday. I finally got up and stripped of my dress and heels. I sat at my sewing machine and made six of my sketched outfits come to life. I made underwear, too. For pajamas, I made a huge shirt. They want me pretty, so I'll be pretty. Each outfit got a hairstyle and makeup style. After ironing my outfits, I hung them up. Marshall and Jalex texted me telling me they're taking me to band practice. And they'll be here in thirty minutes. "Shit!" I hopped up and ran to my bathroom. After brushing my hair, I put on eyeliner and lipgloss. I grabbed the purple short and sunset-color tank-top outfit and put it on. Not to be self-centered or anything, but damn, I'm fine. I put on my high-tops and skateboarder to the corner, to wait for the guys.

-Reece POV-

(Forty Minutes before band practice)

Claire walked me to a picnic. I gasped. It was beautiful. There was a tent, with pillows and popcorn. And candy and Christmas lights. I threw my arms around Claire's neck. She wrapped her arms around my waist, and twirled me. "Do you like it?" She asked. I nodded and sat down. Claire sat next to me, and pulled out a bowl, then some candy. She poured it all in the bowl. Sour patch kids, Skittles, Gummy-worms, licorice, and now or later! I squealed excitedly. She laughed, softly. "So what are doing?" I asked. "We're going to watch my favorite short film!" She squealed. I smiled. My girlfriend's so adorable! My cheeks turned red. She's my girlfriend! My girlfriend! And they say the weird ones don't get in relationship! Scoff! Claire smirked, as all these emotion flashed across my features. "A Penny for your thoughts!" She asked.I Smiled and shook my head.

The date was amazing. I practically spent the whole date blushing. Claire was so sweet! And adorable. The movie was amazing. My cheeks hurt from smiling so much. Claire had to go ahead so she could drop off the basket. Turns out we were in the Dez's backyard. A car sped pass me as I skated towards the Marshall's house. Then, the car made an complete 180. Part of my body screaming to start running. But other knew it would I wouldn't make it a good three yards without losing my breathe. The car slowed with it reached me, "Luigi? Or is it Reece, now?" I gasped, at the driver.
