Dark Side Of Things

Chapter one

"Hey Rosie, after class wanna hang out at The Duc ?" Catherine asked me. The Duc is a bar where we hang out after class.

"Sure but not too long cuz' I need to take my bus at 6pm"

"Yeah I know don't worry"Catherine said and left.

Catherine is what you would call a best friend or something close to that to me. I've known her since my first year of highschool, I am now in my before last. Oh my name ? I'm Rosie Martin, I'm seventeen years old and I attend Renoir High School.

I've met so many people like my boyfriend Lucas May. We've been together for nearly two years now. I love him but he loves me more then I love him.

I have other friends but it will be too long to introduce them all. So I'll leave the suspense for a while.

Coming back to the story now.

After Catherine left I made my way back to class, I had one hour left for the day. I had economics. Its fine cuz I like economics.

The hour went by fast, it always goes by fast thanks to the people in my class. We pretty much all get along.

After the hour was over I had my way to the steps in front of the school to wait for Catherine. I took out my tobacco, papers and filters and started rolling myself a cigarette. Once it was rolled I put it to my lips then Lucas came up.

"What have I told you about smoking ?" He said looking disappointed

"I told you that I'm going to cut down then stop after your birthday, I promise" I said as I lit my roll up.

"I really hope so" he said as he kissed my cheek. "You coming over ?" He asked adjusting his bag on his back.

"No sorry I'm going out with Catherine. I'll come over on Wednesday afternoon babe." I said exhaling smoke.

"Okay babe see you tomorrow" he kissed me and left. He lives right behind the school so when I have a free period we go to his place.

I was halfway thru my cigarette when Catherine came out. We went to the bus stop and waited for the bus go to The Duc.

Once we were there we met up with everyone. We always sit at the same table, it's our table.

After settling down I ordered a beer. Yeah I'm underaged but the barman knows me.

After a few drinks, a couple of cigarettes and some laughs, I left The Duc to go to the bus station. It's a 7 minute walk away.

At the bus station I got bored so I plugged my earphones into my phone and played my favourite songs. Well, I don't really have a favourite. I don't like choosing between thing. Example: If one day my parents get devorced I would probably run away cuz' I couldn't chose between them.

Anyway my bus got here on time. And since this was the first stop I could chose where I wanted to sit.

It was a 35 minute bus ride to get to where I get picked up. You see, I live 8 miles from the bus stop so my dad has to drive me. When he gets to the bus stop to pick me up, it's a 10 minute drive. It's usually silent. My dad doesn't talk much and neither do I so it's never very awkward.

When I get home it's between half 8 and 9 pm so my dinner is ready when I get in. My mum always cooked homemade meals every night. Its expressive considering that she has to cook for 8 people.

Yep, I have 3 brothers and 2 sisters. Well my older sister has gone to an other town for university and my older brother still lives with mum and dad. The others are in middle school and elementary school.

Anyway. After I ate I went to my room. I used to share it with Charlie but since she's moved I have it all to myself.

I layed on my bed with my earphones in blasting Twenty One Pilots. They're pretty good.

As I was starting to fall asleep until I received a text from Catherine.

"Hey I've got to talk to you about something... But you have to promise not to tell..."

"Sure Catherine what's up ?"

"I... I think I'm pregnant..."

Well, things just got interesting around here.
