Marley
Waking up to the familiar sound of my alarm clock, I groaned. Monday morning. Great. I believe Monday mornings should be banned to be honest, to give everyone a chance to recover from the weekend, before entering the hell-hole which is named High School.
It wasn't that I disliked my school or my lessons or even my teachers, I was just bored. Bored of the repeatability of my life. During the course of my 2 previous academic years spent as Parthenay Community High School, I had managed to communicate with all the other 120 students in my grade and had come to the conclusion that, apart from my best friend Estelle and my other friends Faith, Savanna, Ethan and Savanna's boyfriend Chase, no-one in my grade actually had any intelligence or interesting qualities whatsoever. Sure, there were some smart kids but they were all clones of each other, programmed to wear Abercrombie tanks and J-Crew jeans, listen to chart music and go shopping at malls. I just wanted to meet someone different and maybe have a interesting conversation that is not based on topics like which member of One Direction is the hottest. (Totally Harry by the way).
Sighing loudly I managed to pull myself away from the covers before stumbling over to my dresser, where my mum had left a cup of coffee for me , probably when she left for work. After the quick much needed caffeine boost I was ready to get changed. Sorting through my wardrobe I decided my outfit today would consist of a black tank, army style dark green jacket and a pair of cropped skinny jeans. I placed various silver necklaces and beaded chains around my neck before slipping on my favourite pair of comfy white converse to complete the look. Before leaving my room I quickly fixed my long curly brown afro hair into an extremely frizzy ponytail and implying a small amount of mascara, concealer and lipgloss to my previously tired looking face. I was ready to go!
Agreeing to let Estelle drive me to school and back was probably the worst idea ever. I literally have no idea how she managed to receive her licence last fall. As I opened her dark blue Ford Focus door, which I'm surprised she hasn't totalled, I caught sight of Estelle with her familiar smile plastered on her face. She was always extremely happy,unlike me.
"Hey Gurllll" She screeched in her Barbie voice while reaching over the seat to give me a hug.
"Hi Elle" I replied laughing at her extreme optimism, " How comes your so happy today?"
"Welllll.... I talked to Jonas last-night" She explained while giggling like a 5 year old schoolgirl. I groaned loudly, Jonas is Estelle's hopeless ex and brain dead jock, but somehow she just cant get over him, even though he probably couldn't even count to 5. However this didn't stop her explaining how perfect Jonas is, for the rest of the journey. It wasn't until we reached near the school gate she actually changed the subject.
"So my mom heard from our neighbour that apparently the StClair's ,who live down by Madison and Yale Street, nephew has moved in and he's in our grade!" Estelle spoke up while concentrating on trying to park in the teeny school parking lot.
"What so he's like a new boy" I questioned shocked at this concept. At any other high-school a new junior wouldn't be such a shock but my grade hadn't had a new student since 4th grade, when Kelly Ashbrooke moved here from Maine to live with her grandparents. People just didn't want to move her and to be honest I don't blame them.
"Yeah I think so, apparently no-one knows why he moved here.... its like a mystery" She mused dramatically while climbing out the car and straightening her cheer uniform. Estelle was almost the complete opposite from myself. She was a preppy deputy cheer captain and town beauty queen , who was in all AP classes and enjoyed them! Although we were both fairly popular Estelle was definitely more liked as she was always smiling and was actually nice to people unlike myself. "And he's also supposed to be really hot".
"Hmmm lets hope so" I decided, a hot new boy is just what this school needed.
Maybe he can help shake this town up a bit.
A/N: HEY GUYS!:) so yeah this is Chapter One- sorry its quite short. This is my first time writing on Wattpad so sorry if its not very good. But I decided that the character Marley will be played by Ashley Moore (Model- google her) and Estelle by Selena Gomez but feel free to imagine who you want. You will meet the rest of the cast in the next chapters. There will be swearing and stuff in later chapters, just warning you guys it will get more exciting. Thanks:)
