The Possessive

Chapter 1 - "That's Cute"

Chapter 1- "That's cute"

I sat in a fetal position on my twin bed pondering on all that happened a week ago. I had hyperventilated multiple times already just thinking about it.

I, Roxanne Clears, have to do a project with Jacob Dean.

The project being one of those cliché love story presentations. All love stories seem to go the same way. There is usually a happy ending, people get married, or run away together. They do whatever they want to do. Obstacles are placed in the way to get there, but you can't beat or move all obstacles. Somehow in those sappy stores they do beat them though.

The thought of transferring to a different class appeared in my mind multiple times. I would somehow have to convince the principal to move me.I had no idea how I was going to do that, but I'm sure I could figure out a way.

I heard a soft knock at my door and my mum entered.

"Morning dear, breakfast is ready." She smiled and left me to get ready.

I trudged over to my small closet and found a pair of dark light washed skinny jeans. I threw them on my bed as I came across a grey sweater that said "U.S Marines". I pulled off my pjs and slid on the sweater and jeans. I felt tears sting my eyes as I thought of my dad. I applied all of my makeup after a fear tears slid down my face. My blonde hair was thrown up into a messy bun with a few strands hanging out. I walked down to the kitchen to see a plate with toast and bacon. My mother had already left for work or at least that's what she said in her note. I grabbed my backpack and my toast as I walked out the door.

I nibbled on my toast as I walked down the sidewalk. Some geese ran in front of me, so I threw my left over bread at them. They gave me a skeptical stare before eating it. I stood there in awe watching them eat. One poked its head up and gave a glared. I, being my stubborn self, glared back at the goose. We stared at each other for a minute before it let out a loud 'honk'. It charged towards me with the others following it. It took me a minute for my brain to click with my feet for me to run. I shrieked as one nipped my ankle as I tried to get away from them.

I officially hated geese.

I arrived at school fifteen minutes later after being chased all the way here, to be greeted by a very excited jade. Parts of my clothes had been shredded by the geese and I had scratches covering my body.

"What happened to you?!" She yelled looking over my cuts.

"Geese." I stated as I tried to hide the marks.

"Again? When will you ever learn?" She shook her head while I glared at her.

"They weren't the same geese as last time." I muttered.

"Anyways...Did you hear?!" She practically screamed at me. I shrugged as she gaped.

"Your so unsocial these days! It's all over the Internet!" I furrowed my brows in confusion telling her to continue.

"Facebook..." She replied.

"You should know I don't use Facebook and I hate it." I spat out at her.

"That's why he posted it." She laughed as I was standing there dumbfounded.

Jade was a complete social freak. She was always up to date with who's going out with who or who broke up. I on the other hand could careless unless Jade says its about me or Jacob.

"Care to explain or let me see your phone?"

She gave me her phone and started to rock back and forth waiting on me. I did all my login stuff and went to my newsfeed.
