American Beauty/ American Psycho

Chapter 1

*OCTAVIA*

The smell of eggs and syrup waft into my nose and are the first thing I smell in the morning, which I'm not complaining about. I lazily open my eyes and roll out of bed. It's the first day of school. Groaning, I start to walk to my bathroom, and as stupid as it sounds, it was hard to get up and go to the bathroom. I mean, who actually wants to go to school? For a while, I was seriously considering ditching, but then, I wouldn't be able to see my best friends in the whole entire world, Michael and Carrie. I wondered if they thought the same thing this morning? Probably.

As I'm about to get into the shower, Carrie calls me. "Hello?" "OCTAVIA!" Carrie screams through the phone, which makes me drop my phone. "Jesus christ, Carrie what?!" "I heard that there are two new exchange students at school today!" "And you're telling me this why?" I respond. "Beeccaauussee" she says like a little child. "They're from England! Well,one is. The other one is Australian!" okay, now, I'm getting a tad bit excited to go to school. What if they're hot? But then again, no one likes me. In the romance way, at least. "Hello? Octavia? Hello?" "Oh hey, yeah um cool, u-uh I gotta hop in the shower so um I'll see you at school, okay?" "Okay, but don't come crying to me when you figure out they're super gorgeous and taken!" I laugh a bit. "Okay Carrie. See you at school." I say and hang up the phone. What if I have a chance with these guys? Maybe one of them, I hope.
