Highschool Story

Just Another Day

I woke up still holding Regina. I sat up carefully so I don't wake the sleeping form next to me. I looked around and saw Henry playing with some pencils I left out. I noticed a colourful collection of scribbles on my bedroom wall where Henry was sitting. The kid is lucky I love him. I walked over to him and scooped him up, "how about we get some food then wake mommy up?" He shouted a 'yes' and continued waving pencils around.

I carried him downstairs. I guess I need to stop by the store for more paint later.

I put Henry down after feeding him some cornflakes. I laughed at the sleeping mess that was my sister sleeping on the couch in a starfish position. I shook her awake and she groaned in response.

"Kat, you need to get up! You have school."

She sat up and ran her fingers through her hair.

"I would have been awake at a decent time if Neil didn't invite his stupid friends to stay and you didn't have the school's freak in my old bed, not to mention some random baby!" She gave me a look that had 'I'm not in the mood, so don't argue' written all over it.

"She's not a freak! And her and that 'random' baby, who by the way is called Henry, will be here for the foreseeable future. So, some advice, be nice or I'll kick your ass."

"Why are you so quick to defend her, she kicked your boyfriend's ass for crying out loud!"

"You know, if you actually took your time to say 2 words too her, even you would be able to figure out that she's pretty great!"

"Yeah, well I don't give a shit about that skank. I don't want her in my bed or anywhere near me or my stuff, she's probably only your friend so she can get a free pass in school so she doesn't get her ass kicked again! Be careful Emma."

"You know what, fuck you!" I took a step closer to her as David, my step-dad, walked through the front door.

"What's going on here!" He said.

"Kat called Gina a skank!" I said, well, more like yelled.

"So your calling her Gina now? Dad, her so called friend is dangerous she punched Matt in the jaw and she beat Killian until he was unconscious!" Kat yelled too.

"She's not dangerous! Matt, Robin and Killian attacked her in the halls! She hasn't given herself that busted lip! Think Kat, you know the guys! For the right price they'd do that and I bet it's your 'girl' Jenny who did this, she's been hating on Regina since she first laid her disgusting eyes on her!"

"Jenny wouldn't do that! Dad tell her!"

"I'm telling you both right now! Stop this! I came back to get my keys and that's what I'm going to do! No more fighting, ok? Good now go get ready for school."

Kat huff and stormed off. David looked at me, grabbed his keys and left. I looked around and noticed Henry was gone. "Henry!"

I heard giggling then he popped up from behind the couch and shouted "boo!"

I laughed and picked him up, "let's go wake up mommy." If that argument didn't already.

I walked into the room with Henry running in behind me clearly to finish his masterpiece. Damn, that girl can sleep! I whispered her name and put my hand on her shoulder. She shot up looking panicked and looked at me and instantly calmed down. She looked at Henry and started saying sorry over and over again.

I chuckled, "Regina, calm down it's fine I let him."

Kat came in and said, "what's she doing in your bed? I thought she was in mine, so not only is she a freak but she's a dyke too? Oh wait she can't be, she has a son. She's nothing but a straight slut."
