Thalia's POV
Sometimes I wonder about how life works. There are times when life is all rainbows, sunshines and daisies but there are also times when life fucks you up and leaves you at the edge of a cliff. When you're at the edge of that cliff, you get stuck in oblivion where your mind is your worst enemy as it continues to remind you of your insecurities. All it takes is a light push and you'll be plunging down to the sea, drowning every one of your positivity as you take your last breath.
Or, by some miracle, your 'the one' will sweep you off your feet and away from the cliff, giving you the happy ever after that you've always wanted. But that seems way to cliché and it is, love is only beautiful to those who are naive enough to believe the lies that your partner is feeding you.
They say that you're 'the one' will strip your walls and love you for what you are, but then, why are girls constantly insecure and always dresses to impress? I for one don't get it.
Why do girls bother waking up at the crack of dawn to fix bed hairs and apply make up before sleeping again just so that they look 'radiant' when they awaken once again next to their partner?
Maybe I'm a pessimist or maybe I'm simply the only one in this world who is way too smart to not get fooled by the world like everyone is.
You can't really blame me though, it comes from the experience. As blurry as the memory gets, I significantly remember a mini me having the childhood any kid would want. However, that all changed, everything has changed. The word 'love' feels foreign to me considering the fact that I've never been loved. Not even by my "parents". Why the quotation marks you might ask? Probably because abusing their daughter should strip their title as "parents".
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
A ridiculously loud beeping disturbed my thinking and I felt myself jerk into reality. I was confused, instead of my dumb as fuck mother who usually wakes me up, it was my alarm.
Wait, alarm? I don't have an alarm, that hag was my alarm. I tried opening my eyelid but all of a sudden, that seemed like such a hard task. I could feel it draining my energy and so, I decided to focus on trying to move one of my fingers, but I couldn't. Something was wrong, it felt as if my whole body was paralyzed and every part of my body ached. I tried over and over again to open my eyes and when it opened by a hair's length, I could feel a surge of wind knock me breathless. But it probably wasn't wind.
Random voices started to fill my ears and I felt overwhelmed. When my eyes finally got used to the brightness of the room, I shrieked as I saw a pair of stormy blueish green eyes right in front of me and blacked out.
When I regained my consciousness, I could feel myself getting a pounding headache as I immediately sat up. But my view surprised the hell out of me. There was 5 ridiculously gorgeous boys wearing ridiculously horrible outfits - one with a farmer outfit, one who looks like he just came out of vogue, one who looks like a hot criminal, one who looks daddy af and one who looks adorable.
A/N: I'm not too sure about this chapter, what do you think? (:
