Dear Diary, My parents are at it AGAIN over who know what but whatever it is I know it has a lot to do with me I'm the only child so it's kind of hard for my parents to share custody of me I go to my dads for the weekend an I come back the following week which is really stupid I hate going with my dad he's too uptight about everything he pretends to care but he doesn't. You see my dad is a businessman and my mom is a doctor who makes great money but the only problem they had before getting a divorce was both of them were having an affair, I know crazy right? Both of them have been having affairs for years they barely slept in the same bed together it was like two separate countries my father slept on the couch while my mom was trying to figure out what to do about day later they came to an agreement on a divorce but they had to share custody of me which still sucks your probably asking if I have any siblings no on my mom's side yes on my dads , Jacob who's is 17 but acts like he's 20 and Jane who is 20 but I don't really know them like that but they still treat me like I matter.. Sometimes.

"Destiny you're going to be late for school!" My dad yells from down the hall. Ugh school I hate it that's the place where I call my prison and hell combined it's my first day at Cambridge High and let's say this school isn't no small petite school it's a huge school filled with ..people that I don't like my dad should know that I don't like people I HATE people. I close my journal shut and stuff it underneath my bed and grab my bag and cellphone and head downstairs into the kitchen being greeted by Jacob who had a mouth full of god knows what.
"Murnig sisterrr claws" he says finally swallowing his food, I smack him upside the head and sit down arm cross from him and reach for toast and the bacon. I looked around to see that dad is nowhere in sight I look over at Jacob and before I could ask he already answers my question. " He went to work already so Jane is driving us" he sighs loudly. Jacob kind of reminds me of dad always looking at his watch talking about games as how many women he dated in his past life and don't get me wrong Jacob is smart (when he wants to be) as he's actually good looking he stands about 5,11 with brown wavy hair and olive skin and blue eyes he's lucky he's attractive he don't have to worry about his looks or his weight at all he can just jump out of bed brush his hair and leave for me I Stand in the mirror for about 10 minutes staring at myself until my vision becomes blurry and I began to cry, I hate the way I look I always wanted to look like those models in the magazine but realized that I'm not perfect but I have a lot of flaws and problems that no one seems to care about. I look down at my phone it's only 8:15 a.m. Where the hell Is Jane?!
A few seconds later jane rushes in and signals us to the car and locks the door behind us I don't like jane I really don't she thinks she knows so much about everyone when she clearly don't know anything about herself but accept she's a ControlFreak, we argue like cats and dogs but we get around and leave eachother alone we finally get in the car as Jane starts the engine I noticed half her hair an makeup wasn't finished I turned around and looked at Jacob he was already laughing at her.
"What's so funny?" She says fixing her review mirror looking at Jacob and I. We both shook our heads and turned the other way to look out our windows. "Yeah i know I look like a hot mess I woke up late and I was having a rough morning" she grumbles.
"And I noticed you have bad morning breath too can you please talk that way because the that dragon breath hasn't been slayed!" Jacob whines. I burst into laughter as jane puts the car in reverse then drive and speeds down the road yep she's mad but then a few moments later  I looked up we were pulling up into the school "Welcome To Cambridge Highschool" it says as we pull into the  parking lot. Oh God No, I thought I felt my palms become sweaty and my throat became dry and I looked over to see jane smiling brightly at me I swear I want to snatch the smile off that half done face of hers.

Jacob hops out and runs to greet his "Squad" while I still remain seated trying not to die in my own seat. Breathe Destiny Breathe I whispered to myself getting out of the car. " Have a good day at school!" She yells as I Walk towards the main enterance I looked around to see everything Couples Making out , Goths, Potheads, the pretty girl Clique ha, like I'll ever fit in there and the Jocks and The rebels in their leather jackets and oh yeah my personal favorite Group The Chainsmokers. I stood there for a minute but I realized the bell has rung and I quickly made my way to the office  I got lossy a few times but I found it without any help and was greeted with a smile by Ms. Greene.
"Hello Dear You must be miss Cruz she "says sweetly.
"How do you know who I am?" I ask stupidly of course they are going to knows name I'm the new girl, the freak the misunderstood child or should I say disturbed child.
"You're Jacobs Sister you guys kind of look alike" she laughs putting on her glasses and scribbling a note and handing me a piece of paper it was my schedule.
"Do you need help finding your class dear?" She asks she's so polite I like her already I nod my head and she walks around the desk and tells me to follow her down the long dead silent empty halls of Cambridge.
A few strolls later I found the class 6-A Mr.Zedd my History Teacher, we walk in and 60 eyes flies in my direction I can feel my heart skip beats after beats .
"Well hello ms. green who's this you got here with you?"he says walking closer to me narrowing me with his hazel green eyes I have to say he's probably  in his early 30s he's kind of cute he's tall and built nicely is everyone at this school that attractive?!
Ms. green nods her head and pats me on the shoulder. This is Ms.Cruz she says.The teacher gives me a sly smile and clears his throat and turns towards the class to introduce me Oh Great.
Class we have a New Student today her Name is Destiny Cruz she'll be joining us please let's make her feel welcomed. He says firmly.
The class just stares at me. I can feel my heart doing back flips in my chest I swear if I don't sit down soon I'll pass out. Mr.Zedd  turns toward the half dead looking class and yells.
"Class!" He says Louder causing me and Ms. Greene to jump, he turns to apologize and the class straightens up and says "Welcome Destiny". But really I'm not welcomed at all I feel like a turtle crawling into my shell and never coming out. Mr.Zedd points to my seat in the far left next to the window in the back, perfect I got something to look out of to avoid the awkwardness with the clad I make my way down the narrow aisle walking over purses and back packs until a thick black boot sticks out blocking my way I look over to the girl that's blocking me she gives me a glare.
"Just because you're new doesn't mean your the shit or call the shots around here that's my job". She says blowing a bubble looking me up and down she's probably one of them rich girls who gets what she wants from her parents and cries when she doesn't, she has strawberry blonde hair and piercing grey eyes that can snatch your soul out of your body she's wearing Jeffree Starr's "Unicorn Blood" matte lip stick and she has several freckles on her cheeks she reminds me of one of those Barbie dolls I used to have when I was younger.
I just look at her and step over her boot and make my way to my seat finally an look out the window I think it's going to rain just by looking at the pale grey clouds and sky but then a note flew on my desk I looked around and opened it it said: I think your cute xoxo

I shook my head and tossed it behind me.

Lunch was a disaster i never seen a cafeteria so full in my entire life so instead I left the lunch room and walked out of the school behind the school building I noticed there were several people here a red head and two blondes and a purple head kid?

"Hey!" The tall blonde called to me I stopped dead in my tracks and I felt anxiety fill my bones and my heart picked up its pace I backed up a little bit and looked at them.
I didn't want to look stupid of course so I looked around and pointed to myself and they all nodded.
I came closer to them and they were all huddled together they look like one of those band groups I forgot the name of them.
"What are you doing back here newbie?" The red head sneers I opened my mouth to say something but nothing came out I started becoming slightly dizzy and leaned against the wall for support.
"I'm just...wandering around looking for something". I lied
The blonde guy scoffed and pulled out a cigarette and lit it and raised a brow, listen here muffin whatever your looking for isn't back here try the kiddie group he smiled . Asshole I thought to myself I really was looking for something but I couldn't find anything.
"May I?" I ask with my hand out for the cigarette, the blonde guy looked at me with furrowed brows and handed it to me.
"What's your name?" I ask between puffs of the cigarette, the blonde smirked I'm Chase this is Doris,Micah and Andrew he said. I guess Doris didn't like her identity being identified so she kind of freaked out.
"Why would you tell her our names she's probably one of those girls that would rat us out to the cops!" She yells.
I give Chase and Micah a look and shake my head. "I'm new here I didn't mean to freak you out or anything like that I'm sorry" I say slowly then back away dropping the cigarette and stepping on it and Walking away before they say anything else before that I heard Chase call after me I continued walking not back into the school of course I'm going Home.

As I walk up the steps to the house I noticed the door wouldn't budge Damn I forgot Jane has locked the doors before we left this morning I looked down at my dying phone 11:55 a.m. great dad will pull up any second and notice me at the front door and ask me why I'm not at school. I quickly go around back and hop the fence and climb the ladder up to my bedroom window and shut the window so I don't get caught by the nosey neighbor of ours Mrs.Mabel so I quickly close my blinds and fall on my bed face first and fall into a deep sleep ditching is totally worth it.
3 hours has passed and I looked at the time its 4:07 p.m. and I already hear stomping up the stairs probably Jane or Jacob then a loud knock hammers on my door.
"Destiny open the door right now" Its my dad and he doesn't sound happy.
