Reverse Reality

Chapter 2

Tragic Heroine. Ugh, I've always hated that title, it makes me feel like I'm supposed to act like one of those story book run of the mill peppy girls. Dreamboat girls that are just cookie-cutter, picture perfect, sapsuckers that whine and bitch until what they wants gets done by some stupid luck. But oh wait, they face serious challenges, their family has fallen apart and its a new school, they know no one and I am expected to bend over and cry like the rest. Disgusting, and damn well over done. Labels are labels however and its what I got fixed with, joy. Life for me is no Cinderella story, but I won't whine like the others. If you are crying, fight against it! If you are regretful, walk forward! If you only complain about your misfortune, you're nothing more than a common pig. Ah, if only it was that easy.

Swallowed up by the growing crowd of other students walking to school, I lower my head and follow the other sheep. "Now Raven, try not to be too flashy or loud. Just fit in and be a good girl, I don't need any complaints that my daughter is causing a riot! Be grateful that we got you into that school! Its only for blue bloods, so act like the one you are!"

Yeah, a school full of rich, stuffed shirt, arrogant twits is what every girl dreams of. This was the cookie-cutter part of my life, the school from Hell. Due to the fact that my only friend attracted the whores and textbook pretty blondes, I was forced to deal with them. Raising my head, I look around for the familiar head of green hair, yea, N had green hair. Within the sea of identical uniforms, the hair stood out like a beacon. The fact he was 6 feet helped a lot too. Identical twin freaks, I guess thats why we were friends. Despite him being the most sought after guy in my grade, he chose me to be his friend. Although I suspected it had something to do with the fact that I'd been in more fights than anyone in the school so most of his fanclub stayed the Hell away from him when I was near him.

" Haha, why do always wear that weird hat? It looks so funny on you!"

My head rose, hearing the familiar obnoxious giggle coming from around the corner. Glancing around it, I see N in his usual habitat, the queen bee and her sidekick almost wrapped around his waist. Poor guy looks sick. Caitlyn glared as soon as she saw me, "Oh look its the gutter rat, go crawl back to your hole me and N are busy." 

"Yea Rat, do what she says," chimes Elizabeth, copying her master.

" Oh butt out Elizabitch I'm not talking to you," I say, rolling my eyes, " If you two twits keep clinging to Ns' waist your fat-asses will drag him down and make him late for school. If your so desperate for the attention I'm sure Josh could use another favour. Because I'm sure by the amount of talking your doing your mouths have healed from the last time." I say, smiling overly sweetly.

Still smiling I grab Ns' wrist and drag him away from the girls still reeling with shock. "Nice one there Hawkeye! I wonder how long it will take for those idiots to take hint."

" All you need to do is tell them to back off! Man the Hell up dude! I'm not your bodyguard Wade." I say, throwing his nickname back in his face. N and I had a secret obsession for the geek world and had nicknamed the other after their favourite superhero, kinda like a pet name. Even though I never called him Deadpool, N was too undeserving of the name.

"Really? You expect me, one of the most handsome guys in the school, to tell two unfortunately beautiful girls down? That kind of thing simply cannot happen my dear Raven.Such work is better left to the unpopular like you. Uff!" 

N let out a small groan as my fist connects with the center of his stomach hard. "You're an ass you know that?"

"And you're a heartless bitch."

We both look each other and burst out laughing. I playfully punch his arm, saying that we're going to be late for school if he doesn't hurry. I jog towards the school gates smiling, maybe today won't be so bad after all. Ha! Who the hell am I kidding, Mondays never turn out well for me.
