1 : Me At A Party; A Scenario As Unlikely As Seeing Santa In A Bathing Suit

“Hey Lily,” someone chirps at me.

A few more people acknowledge my presence with a few simple ‘Hi’s’ or ‘Hello’s’.

I make my way down to my locker in peace, loving how the warm sun shines through the windows and lights up the path to my locker.

Petals are dusted along the route I take to that said locker, making the bleak hallway look beautiful, striking and most of all peaceful.

I hear the sweet, soothing sounds of violins and birds chirp in the distance making me smile as the volume of the chattering in the hallway gets lower and lower and lower…

“Lily! Earth to Lily! What’s up with you?” My best friend, Charlie, is screaming in my face, obviously annoyed with the fact I have just been ignoring her…it’s not my fault I was daydreaming.

I guess you could say it’s weird to be daydreaming about the school hallway magically transforming into a scene like that, but if you have ever step foot in my school then you’ll realise why.

It’s hell. Peace and quiet is what everyone is wishing for.

In reality, I have to shove past the bustling bodies that seem to be ignoring my presence in order to move through the hallways. Huh, maybe I forgot about the fact I’m invisible. Looking down at myself, I see a small girl, wearing dark denim baggy jeans, very, very old converse and a Superdry top that resembles one a guy a few metres away is wearing…uh who cares? Since when do I care that my tomboy clothes are probably actually from the boys’ isle?

Almost laughing at my own sarcastic thoughts, I tell myself that I am definitely, and in no way, invisible.

The whole school must have some sort of eye problem then.

I mean, it’s obvious someone is here right?

Proving my thoughts wrong, once again, a huge sixth former barges into me, not even muttering an apology.

Okay, maybe my school just has a manners problem.

Thankfully I haven’t got my books out my locker yet so I didn’t drop anything due to his eye problem/rudeness.

Still battling my invisibility, I attempt to make it to my locker, which is oh-so-fortunately right in the middle of the busiest hallway in school.

School just love me, don’t they?

Still ignoring Chalies’s presence and her constant chirpings about boys, clothes, parties and boys…oh we’re back to the ‘boys’ topic are we? Joy…I get my books out in record speed and bang the locker shut with a startling noise. Even with that, people still don’t turn a head in my direction.

I shuffle down the hallway whilst Charlie follows like a lost puppy; still oblivious to the fact I’m ignoring her and not even muttering any replies…can’t she get the message?

Shutting her up in the middle of one of her rants about god knows what…probably boys again; I raise an eyebrow and ask, “Isn’t your class the other way?” I point my hand back down the crowded hallway, towards her own English class, and shudder at the thought of ever having to enter the ‘death zone’ again.

Charlie obviously doesn’t have the same thoughts about the school hallways as me, no wonder! All guys bow down to her; she’s beautiful, tall, tanned, fashionable, kind, sweet and funny; she’s everything people want in a best friend or girlfriend. No one can possibly ignore her. Smiling one of her carefree grins, she waves one of her manicured hands and starts heading back into the hall…I sure do hope she gets out alive.
