Falling for the Gang Leader (M.C.)

Chapter 5

A/N: Picture at top is Sophie's outfit :) Outfit not mine I take no credit for making it

I woke up the next morning to the sound of my annoying alarm clock. Groaning, I reached over and turned the alarm off. Glancing at the time, I saw that it was 6:30. I'm so tired, but I have to get up, get ready, and go to school. School doesn't start until 8:30, but I take awhile to get ready, so I have to get up early.

I stretched before getting out of bed and walking over to my closet to pick out my outfit for the day. I pulled out a white tank top and a long flowy pink cardigan from my closet. I then chose a cute pair of white sandals from my shoe rack that I have in my closet. One thing about me is that I love shoes. There's just so many different kinds, styles, brands, and colors that you can get and I love that. I walked over to my dresser and took out a pair of blue jeans that were ripped at the knees along with my undergarments. After I had my outfit for the day picked out I walked out into the hall and into the bathroom to start getting ready for the day.

After I showered, dried off, brushed my teeth, put on my deodorant, got dressed, and blow dried my hair, I began to style my hair for the day. I decided that I wanted some waves in my hair today so I styled my hair into beach waves. After I finished with my hair, I started on my makeup that included: cover up, mascara, and some lip gloss.

After I finished with that, I walked into my bedroom and grabbed my phone. As I was walking downstairs to go to the kitchen I saw that I had five text messages. Honestly, I don't get texts a lot unless it's from my parents, Grace, my friend: Jace, or sometimes my older twin brothers, Landon and Lance.

My brothers and I used to be really close when we were younger, but ever since they went away to college, my brothers go to the same college, we kind of drifted apart. I mean, we still talk sometimes and we still love each other, but there's just a gap between us now that was never there before.

I looked at the new text messages and saw that all but one were from unknown numbers. When I saw who the text from the known number was, I rolled my eyes. The text was from Travis. I decided to ignore the message and read the ones from the unknown numbers. The first text was from Ashton, saying that Michael gave him my number so that's how he got it and that we should hangout soon. I quickly replied and said that we should definitely make plans to hangout soon. The next text I had was from Calum asking if I was sure I was alright and saying that we should hangout. I texted back saying that yes I really am okay and we should hangout. The third text that I got was from Luke. His was just asking if I was okay and saying that he misses me and wants to hangout because the other boys are annoying. I laughed and texted him that I'm fine and we really should hangout again sometime. The last text that I had was from Michael. His text was a good morning text, telling me that he hopes I have a good day at school, and that if Travis does anything, to let him or one of the boys know. I replied back and told him good morning too and said I would let him know if Travis does anything. I thought about whether or not I should tell him about the text from Travis, but decided that I wouldn't because I don't want the two gangs to get in another fight.

After reading and replying to all of my texts, except for the one from Travis, I grabbed a banana and walked outside and sat on my front step while waiting for Grace to get here. I had just finished my banana and thrown it away when my best friend pulled into the driveway.

I climbed into the passenger seat and smiled at my friend.

"Good morning Grace."

"Morning Sophie. Are you ready for another day in hell?"

"Not really. Anyway, I have to tell you something but you have to promise me that you won't tell anyone okay?" I told Grace, hoping that I don't regret telling her everything that happened yesterday. I mean, she's my best friend and we tell each other everything, that's why I'm telling her, but I hope she won't freak out or tell my parents. I'm not afraid of my parents, I just don't want to be put on house arrest.
