(Un)cliche

3. (un)beatable

School is school, so let's not bore ourselves by thinking of that tragedy. After the final bell of the day rings I am out of that classroom in 2 seconds flat. I honestly think I was nearly as fast as The Flash. He'd be impressed, maybe I could date him so we can be the 'Fastest couple on earth'. I walk to my locker to get the necessary books I need for my homework and quickly bound down the corridor to meet Alice. I see her next to the gates and so walk towards that direction when suddenly a silver car on my right screeches to a halt.

10 CENTIMETRES FROM RUNNING ME OVER!!!

I stand there, eyes closed, frozen on the spot. My bag, most likely, on the floor with books and pens strewn across, whilst I am in a partially crouched position with my right leg slightly off the ground and my hands up in front of my face. Like that would protect me from harm. My screams die down as I realise that I am still alive, and so I slowly begin to open my eyes to see Finn laughing hysterically, through the windscreen, his hands on the wheel. Dylan, who in the passenger seat, tries to hide his laughter behind his hand. I stand straight and look directly at Finn. My hands begin to tighten into fists.

Oh I am going to kill Finn and then I'm going to drag the little shit back out from hell just to kill him again!!

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!" I scream, straightening myself into a standing position and my hands clenched at my sides. I'm pretty sure everyone in a 5 mile radius heard me. Finn rolls down his window and pokes his head out.

"Oh hey Alex. Didn't see you there." He says with a smirk which causes Dylan to laugh even more. "It's a good thing I saw you and braked on time. I basically saved your life"

I am so close to choking both of them with their seatbelt!

" I wouldn't need saving if you drove properly!" At this point I am fuming, I probably have smoke coming out of my ears.

"Well I would have driven properly, if it wasn't for you tripping me up at lunch and injuring me" Finn places a hand on his chest, and with a fake look of hurt on his face

That's it! I quickly run to his side and yank open the door. Both boys look at me like I'm from a different planet.

"What the hell do you think you are doing?!" Finn shouts, looking confused. I just smile and then lean forward and grab the car key.

"If you can't drive properly don't drive at all you douche" I said with a smirk and run away with his car keys dangling from one of my hands. "DONT MESS WITH QUEEN ALEXA!" I shout once i'm across the parking lot. Releasing some kind of evil laugh, that would probably impress all disney villains, as I jog down the street.

I can hear them getting out of the car and chasing after me, which just motivates me to run faster. As I reach the mini forest, which grows in front of the school grounds, I throw the keys as far as I can, which to be honest is far... What can I say? I have always been good at sports.

"What the fuck Alexa?!" Finn says as he finally catches up with me and stares at me like I grew another head. His eyes wide, he turns to look at the trees, his hand move to the back of his head.

"Go find them mate" I say as I flip my long brunette hair, pat him on the shoulder then turn around towards the direction of my home, by that time Dylan also catches up and starts laughing as soon as he realises what I did.

What can I say I'm just too funny...

******************************************************************************

After coming home I decide to get some work done. It was a slow and painful, which is exactly what math is, but I am finally done with my awful homework and so I decide to take a nap. It could do some good for my tired eyes and mind, that was now full with useless trig identities and double angle formulas.

"ALEXA, get down here!!" my own devil shouts from downstairs. It's as if the universe had told her about my plans to nap and so she must destroy that chance before I even set foot in my room.

"Yes, mother what would you like this fine afternoon?" I yell back at her, sarcasm dripping from my mouth. I really do want to go to sleep on my precious bed, my one and only.

"Alexa it's 7 pm already and you didn't do any of the chores that I told you to do! What were you doing all this time?" Oh god not this again.... She didn't even tell me about any of the chores, I swear down she has a memory that is close to 0.

"Mum what are you talking about? I just finished my maths homework it's not like I was out partying.." I stated. I bet an argument is coming up. "Is that all you wanted to tell me?" I ask not very interested in what is she talking about .

"Alexa watch your tone when you are talking to your mother! And no I also called you because some guy is outside the front door asking for Alex?" She said gesturing towards the door with her finger.

Oh no... only one person calls me alex.... Crap not him!

"I don't want any guys coming to our house Alexa! You are too young for them!-" she continues.

"I'm 18..." I mumble whilst mum keeps talking. I walk towards the front door, no point hiding I think it's too late now.

"But I have to say he's quite cute. How long have you guys been going out?" mum started acting like a schoolgirl all of a sudden wanting all the gossip. She holds her steaming mug closer as a bright smile appears on her face. One second she was shouting and the next she was all buddy-buddy. She confuses me sometimes.

"Mum no it's not like that. Just go inside please" I plead.

"Fine i'm going" holding up her hand and slowly turning around to go backing inside the kitchen. As I open the door I'm greeted with that handsome face of Finn.

"What do you want Flynn Ryder?" I ask whilst resting on one side of the door..

"What a friendly attitude you got there" He says sarcastically whilst rolling his eyes. Very mature "I figured out what the favour you owe me can be."

"Listen I already told you it doesn't count! I'm not doing any favour for you Ryder"

"Stop with the Tangled references already I don't even look like him ,neither is my name similar... The only thing we share is being hot and all.."

What a cocky little piece of crap. How far do I need to roll my eyes back until I can no longer see him?!

"Okay about the favour, Alexa I know you already stated that you don't want to do it, but you are kind of the only one who can actually help me" For once he actually sounds serious, did he get in a trouble or something?

"What's the favour Prince Charming?"

"Where did that come from? You know I just give up with these nicknames you have for me." He says face palming himself.. Do people actually do that? Does it hurt? Maybe I should try it once in awhile. "But basically Alexa I need you to attend this party tomorrow evening with me. It's formal fundraising event that my parents are hosting.."

Oh god that sounds so cliche what will he expect me to do? Pretend that I'm his girlfriend or something?.....shit.

"Why?" I ask because- for real- who does that in real life?

"It's just that my older brother, as well as my younger brother, both have serious girlfriends and they both tease me... The youngest Tom is the most..." At this point I was completely oblivious to what Finn was saying.

OMG I knew it! He Definitely wants me to be his fake girlfriend, and if you read enough of those books, then you know they end up falling in love. Always. EW NO I DON'T WANT THAT TO HAPPEN!!

"Look, I'm sure you can get any other girl to go with you in a blink of an eye! Just get one who is desperate enough to lower her standards. Glad I could help, bye!" I quickly interrupt, giving a thumbs up ad I start to close the door... but he obviously puts his foot in the way stopping the door from closing.

"No because I need you, it's only for one evening and you'll be only there as my friend! Don't worry nothing will actually happen!" This is the first time ever I see Finn desperate for something.

I mean it can't be that hard can it? Ugh i'm actually gonna agree?

Curse me for being so nice and feeling pity on this useless human being.
