Long Walk

Chapter 1

Larkin if you don't get up you'll miss the bus... My brain rambled to me. I moaned and pushed myself up with what strength I had. My hair stuck to the side of my face and pillow. I brushed it from my eyes. I looked around my room. My clock was the brightest thing in my black as night room. 6:18 A.M. I face planted my pillow " 5 more minutes" I groaned. Then my insides turned. If i miss the bus then i don't have another ride. Once again i pushed myself up and filped my covers off me. I stumbled heavily across the room. I flicked on the light, which was dumb because it blinded me. I rubbed my eyes and looked away. I felt like a vampire. Ha that's stupid because if so i would drain the blood from every dumb ass in my school. i pushed the thoughts aside.

Flicking on the T.V. i found Family Guy was on. Not that i really paid attention to it. i just needed noise while i got ready. I slipped on black skinny jeans, a motorcycle shirt, and my combat boots. Now my feet felt even heavier with these things on. Oh well i'll get used to it. I flew open my door and made my way to the bathroom. " I gotta piss" i anounced to myself. Nobody else listens to me around here.

I felt so relived. Hey don't judge me, you've felt Relief like that before. I looked in the mirror while washing my hands. I looked gross. My hair matted and makeup i wasn't able to remove before bed still smeared my face. I looked into my own tired bloodshot eyes. I removed makeup and then gobbed on more makeup. I hated my natural looks.  I brushed out my knotted hair. Pain  Perice my scalp.  "damn sensitve  scalp." i cursed my hair. 

I had no time for breakfast or coffee, which i desperately needed. So i rushed out for the bus. right as i hit the door handle, My mother entered the kitchen. So i rushed out quicker before she could say anything. I didn't want her to comment about me being out last night. She always wanted to know how my dates went. Too bad they weren't dates, They were girl nights out. I always ended up slammed with sleepiness though. So lets just say I'm only the life of the party until 9.  Last night We, Meaning me and Rosa, Were hanging out with a bunch of boys. When they pulled out drugs we decided to split the guys party. They called us Pussies Because were not into the drugs and shit, but my smart ass self replied " Pussies you'll never have the chance to get into." And with that me and Rosa flipped them off playfully and headed off to Tasty Freeze. They laughed and threw a soda can at us as we drove away.

thinking about it made me laugh. The bus squealed up to me and flung open the doors. I flew up the stairs and into the very back seat. Tanner Greeted me. "Hey Lar! Whoah! you look like shit!" He laughed. He was at the party too. " Oh thanks Tanner always nice to know someone still thinks im reposive" I joked as i slapped the back of his head.

He handed me a headphone. Metal music poured from it. I popped it into my ear. I loved Tanner! He was like a bro. He was the best and he loved pranks. We had Prank wars one year. The last prank i pulled On him I drew a penis on his arm while he slept in science class. His mouth was wide open too. priceless! He got me back though. He made me think he was dying. He ran into my house bleeding from his stomach. It was fake of course. He wont tell me how he did it though.

I looked out the window. We weren't on our usual route. " hey Tanner." i said tapping him on the shoulder. He continued to head bang and play air Guitar. "Tanner!" i ripped the ear phone from his ear. " Hey!!" he whined. " what!" He said snatching the ear bud back. " why are we going this way? we getting a new kid?" I said. He shrugged. " The driver might have taken a wrong turn. we will get back on track, its hard to get lost in Delaware you know." I nodded and laughed.

I was right! we stopped at a boys house. He was tall. He was cute too. Blue jeans and a leather jacket. He had short black hair. Oh my type of boy! He Got on the bus and sat right across from me. " Hey " i greeted him. He turned and looked at me. "hey" Oh lord what a deep voice! "whats your name?' i asked giving the ear bud back Tanner who rolled his eyes at me. " Danny"  nodded at me " what about you? whats your name?" Shit! My name is so weird! well here it goes " Larkin" I said blushing. He smiled brightly. " got a nickname?" He said. What do you not like my name? I cocked and eyebrow " Lar." I said sliding back in my seat and putting my feet up on the seat. " Cool." He nodded then decided to act like i wasn't there. OK cool guy, Wanna play Bad ass. Fine.
