"Good morning, Zoey. How come your so early in the morning?"
"Hey mom. And I'm not home early, I just didn't want to stay at Nyx's house anymore, that's all." I spoke nonchalantly. My mom was cool, she was an older version of me. But she was always in everybody's business. Like always. She would do the 20 Questions game until she was satisfied with the info given. "Oh, well, how was the sleepover? What did you guys do?" She stared into my eyes and acted like she was all innocent. Ugh.
"We ended up sleeping in her trailer and it was fun." Was all I said. I think I wanted to tell her about the shadow, but I wasn't sure. She would probably freak. And that wouldn't be good. So better just keep my mouth shut. "I'm hungry. Can you make me a sandwich? Then, I have to go finish up some homework," I demanded.
"Sure sweetie. I will make it after I go out for a smoke." She smiled at me. Then she walked from the kitchen to the front door. Then she added, "Your father will be late again." Then she slammed the door behind her.

"Great," I mumbled to myself as I walked into school. I was really irritated. It was Monday. Ugh. And Nyx wasn't at school today. Ugh. And neither was Matt. Double Ugh. Anyways, so I was basically alone. But its not the first time, soo yeah.
I had a weird dream last night. It was about that shadow figure. Triple ugh. It wasn't anything special, just the night in Nyx's trailer playing over and over in my mind. But I don't know why it was giving me such the eebie-jeebies. Like Nyx said, "I am being paranoid."
I was at my locker whispering stuff under my breath about school when my thoughts were interrupted by, "Damn! Girl you got a fine looking ass!" I turned around getting ready to unleash my wrath, but they were, can I say HOT? "And who are you?" I said while I stuck out my hip. The one guy was tall, but not like giant tall, just not short either.
"I'm Johnny and this is my bro Chris." He was seriously hot. I already had my hip stuck out, so why not have a little fun with this? I sucked in my stomach, nonchalantly, so I appeared skinnier, and my boobs bigger. Luckily today I wore a low cut tank top, with a see through yellow plaid top.
"Sup girl? Who are you?" Asked Chris.
"I'm Zoey. Umm, I've never seen you guys around, are you new or something?" Gosh, I sounded like I was lesbian.
"Yeah. And we're glad we did 'cause you got a fine looking ass!" Chris nodded in approval, while Johnny, obliviously, looked at my hips and corners of my butt. "Uh, thanks." Aca-Awkward!
"Well, I'll see you around. Gotta go to P.E." Johnny started to walk away when I yelled, "Wait, I have P.E. next too, mind if I walk with you?"
"Anything for an as-, I mean girl like you!" He stopped and gave me a cute, cocky smile. Ahh. Maybe, possibly a new boyfriend.
