"You'll never make it. You're just a loser, always have been always willl be!" The "popular" girls cornered me. "You know why you won't make it Ellie?" The queen bee of the school asked, they all snickered, "because you're a little, ugly bitch." They all laughed and suddenly I felt like I was drowning in freezing water.
My eyes fluttered open, "WHAT THE FU-" Someone slapped their hand on my mouth. "Shut the hell up! You're parents are still asleep" I groaned and looked at Zoey, my bestfriend, "Why the hell did you do that!" I whispered, she looked at me with a blank face. "You had dreams about those hoes didn't you? I told you not to listen to them!" I looked down at my hands and nodded, how was I not supposed to be affected.. I suppose I should tell you my story.
It all started in 9th grade. I walked into school with my bestfriend at the time, which obviously she turned on me after a month of being in high school. I always wanted to be a singer, it was my dream, only it was destroyed by the monster I used to call my best friend. She picked on me every day for four years. I finally graduated high school a week ago, and I still have horrible dreams of her breaking me.
"Ugh.. you think too much," Zoey complained while she threw a pillow at me. "Come on, let's go get some breakfast I'm hungry." I stared at her and then at the time. 6:30 IN THE MORNING! "It's so early!" I groaned and she slapped me, not hard enough for me to get hurt, even though she could if she wanted too but she loves me too much. I laughed and got up to get ready, I pulled my skinny jeans through my legs and threw an old t-shirt on. I walked across the room and into the bathroom but not before Zoey reminded me to hurry up because at the pace I was going in she was going to die of starvation. I rolled my eyes and went to brush my teeth and do my hair.
We walked, well I walked Zoey skateboarded all the way to McDonalds. We ordered and sat down to eat. I sat there staring blankly at Zoey while she talked about College and our future, "El?" I looked at her and smiled, "come on, my parents will be waking up soon." I glanced at my phone and saw that we spent over an hour here.
"Ellie, Zoey?" My mother called out, we looked at eachother and rolled off our beds and into the kitchen. "Yes mommy?" I asked, Zoey chuckled at my innocence. I am the 'goody-goody' of our friendship, while she's the one with the 'I don't give a fuck' attitude. "I don't really know how to say this but, your father got a promotion and we're moving to Washington." I stared at her with my mouth hanging wide open, "MOM THATS ACROSS THE COUNTRY!" I yelled and my mom shook her head, "Yeah I know. That's why I have arranged for you and Zoey to stay with your brother. Don't worry we'll come back down to enjoy the Miami weather from time to time but this is an opportunity we can't passs up." "Don't worry Mrs. Carter, we'll be fine in Jai's house," Zoey spoke up, I stomped to my room and started packing my stuff. Don't get me wrong, I love my brother, but it's his room mate I'm not too fond about.
