The Life of a High School Girl

Ch.9) Back to school

Troubled Tuesday

I’m going to write in past tense because I already went to school and now I’m writing all about my “fun” day. I’m scared that if I take it too school people would mock me. Not in front of me but they would behind my back and it was a bit obvious because in our school there was really little gossip so this would surely be a big thing. 

I had to go back to school on Tuesday because my mother forced me too, she told me it was because I couldn’t keep hiding from all my worries and that I would have to face school at one point of life. So I figured I might as well make a start now, eh?  

My mum dropped me off because she was feeling insecure for some reason. Probably because Abbie was/used to be on my bus until she went off to Rehab or Juvenile.  My mum kept telling me to concentrate in class and keep my grades up, on the way to school. I really wanted to make my mother proud especially after all the nonsense she had to endure because of me. 

I’ll be honest; school hasn’t ever made it to the #1 priority in my life for some reason. I always wanted to focus on drama, modeling and of course singing!

I kissed my mum goodbye and left. I saw Taylor and Izzie and shouted, “HEY, WAIT UP!”  They seemed to be shocked as soon as their eyes caught me. A shock as if they weren’t happy to see me? Or were they just like that? Don’t know, it’s been a while. 3 days.

Anyway! I was excited to be back at school! I know that it sounds really lame and all but still it seemed like forever that I hadn’t gone anywhere and I was excited to meet my friends too. Even though it had only been 2 days…

We all went to each other’s lockers and sorted out our books, the usual.I was confused about why my besties weren't excited to see me, everything was fine last night...

So I decided to just concentrate on my studies instead.  I am sick of not concentrating in lesson because of Taylor, so I took an oath that I would either concentrate in studies or not be friends with Taylor at all. Then I realized that I couldn’t take the fact that they weren’t happy to see me. So I decided to do my usual strategy, which was to simply ask them. Hey! They were supposed to pick me up this morning!

You know the feeling where you know something bad is going to happen? Like your stomach begins to churn, that’s how I was feeling. I couldn’t wait till it was snack and this time if they were going to say something bad about our friendship then I swear. I’m just done-zo here! To be honest, everything was so much more chilled in Atlantic City, I miss Harry too! 

First period was DT. But this time in DT we were doing something else, we were making a bloody bag for casual wear/beach.  I wasn’t really interested, especially since it was the first lesson and we were to be designing our product. So all we had to do was make a mood board for all the ideas that we had in mind. I didn’t mind my lesson because I didn’t have Taylor or Isabella and basically had nothing to worry about. I made mine with dresses, rompers, heels, accessories and girly stuff. It was like a creative lesson, which I enjoy!

But instead I had Britney, who was ditched by her best friend Abbie. She turns out to actually be a very nice person, she has all the money in the world and not once has she rubbed it in anybody’s face. That’s mostly what I liked about her and plus, she was always nice to me.

We had to partner up for this piece of work. I had no one to be my partner because I sat down with my face buried in my hands and no one seemed to have noticed me. Obviously the only person left was Hannah. I was soo excited.

She would keep demanding me to do things. When I refused to not go with her idea she would over-react and say “It would be a good idea if you listened to me. Because I get good grades unlike some people.” I simply laughed. She felt like she lost all her power and began shouting “DON’T YOU DARE LAUGH.” I tried to get on her nerves.  I went closer to her, looked her into her eyes and said “Or what?”   a smirk playing at my lips, which she hadn't noticed.
