The Holy One- Moon Witch

Chapter One-Beginnings

Finally, the day I have been waiting for the last day of Summer school. It's been one long year for me and my friends, it's time to get drunk and meet some cute boys.
I'm lying in my bed thinking about how next year will be amazing, 10th grade, no more being the peons of Westin High school. Sophia Guerrero Carter will finally be able to walk the halls with out looking behind my back for the upper grade jerks doing and saying stupid things.

I decide to get up and go over to my dresser and start brushing my long black hair. My hair is my best feature I think but my mom says it's my green eyes, which I hate; they change from a shit green to a poop brown. I rub some strawberry smelling lotion on my brown skin and go lay back in my bed. My cat Malfoy jumps on the bed with me and proceeds to nudge my hand that is how he tells me to scratch his head.

Some funky tone started playing, I jumped off my bed, I snatch my phone off then dresser.
Hey, Kayla what's up?
Want to go swimming over at Izzy's place? Kayla asked
Hell ya! Let me find my suit, just come over." I was so happy to spend time with my girls.

Shit, I said out loud, my swim suit is in the bottom of my closet which is a complete mess. I start throwing everything out on the floor, ah ha found you. I smell it, thank God it does not smell like the lake because I don't remember if my mom washed it after our trip to the lake last summer, God, I hope it still fits my fat ass. Note to self: Get new swim suit.

"Sophia", I hear my best friend Kayla yelling from the bottom of my stairs..

Ya, come up Kay.
I look at Kayla in her Daisy duke shorts and her wife beater. Jeez, Kay you can look great in garbage bag. She throws her black goth back pack at me. "Shut your face Sophia." 
"Did you ride your bike? "I asked. "Unfortunately, I did" Kayla said.

I hate riding a bike it's so 13ish, but Izzy lives in the avenues which is where the rich kids live, I really don't know what her family does, realty or something but they make mucho dinero. It's about a half hour if we walked, to her house so biking it is. I was thinking to myself as I pulled my bike from the back yard, I hope we don't see any one we know.

Half way to Izzy's I start getting thirsty so we stop at the Corner store to get some water. I hate water but Kayla is all about staying hydrated, she wants to become a doctor one day so she is always watching those real hospital shows on television which drives me insane. I hate reality television.

I go into the store and pay for my water; I walk out and see Lorenzo Mancuso sitting in his black 2018 Nissan Altima. Not him, why did we have to run into him of all the boys in the world, He is so hot, long crop top black hair and the darkest  brown eyes I have ever seen. He is 17 and , but I have been in the same school with him and his sister Natalia since grade school, Natalia is 14 and a grade behind me, such a sweet girl but very quiet. We all used to play together when we were little, we live like a block away from each other and there is this little park we would all go too, I remember are parents all being friends at one time but not so much anymore. When Lorenzo and Natalia's mom died, it was awkward for the adults and they just stopped talking. It was strange the whole thing, I never really knew how she died and I never asked.

I walk over to my bike and I trip over my own feet, falling right in front of him.
Lorenzo laughs and helps me up," girl he says you are so clumsy, tripping and falling all the time." He turns to walk in to the store laughing and shaking his head.

I look at Kay, how red is my face?
She laughs and calls me a dork.

Kayla is African American and she has the prettiest, clear skin I have ever seen. Her hair is always amazing, she is flawless and I love her and hate her for it. She is my best friend in the world and I feel like a no one next to her. Kayla really does not know how beautiful she is, she is sweet, smart and kind. The whole package.
