As my alarm went of for the third time this morning, it felt like I was being watched. Knowing exactly who it would be, I turned over in frustration.
"Scarlett wake up! Your making us late again!" She hissed.
It was my bestfriend Chelsea, I loved her more than the world but hated her at the same time. She was so perfect, she had brown eyes that looked like chocolate buttons , dark long hair that would hang perfectly without her even trying. Her lips were perfectly plump and always rosey. She had the perfect figure but ate everything fattening under the sun and she had the perfect grades.And the thing that annoyed me the most is that she could have any boy she ever wanted, and she did, she had a different boyfriend every month and they all worshiped the ground she walked on, the only reason she would cut it off was because she would become bored. You see me on the other hand, boys don't even know my name. I'm stuck in the shadows because I was known for being Chelsea's bestfriend.
"Do I have to go today? No one will even notice I'm not there!" I moaned as she pulled back the covers and ruined my comfort.
"Scarlett! Stop moaning and get out of bed! Get in the shower and clean your teeth, I'll find you something to wear and we can do your make up in registration. Now go before I have to drag you!"
As I climbed out of bed at the fastest speed I could at this time in the morning, she had already started to make my bed. I turned and glared at her just to revive a sweet smile and a chuckle for the state my hair was in. I showered in record time knowing full well Chelsea would have a breakfast fully prepared for me like she always did when we were running late. I wondered out of my en suit to be greater by a note, 'Sorry Scarlett I had to run Ben wanted to see me about something. He said it was important so I'll see you in registration! Sorry again Scar, I promise it won't happen again xxx' Brilliant! I've been ditched by my own bestfriend for her latest fling. Looks like I'll be walking to college yet again. Glancing at my watch as I finished drying my hair, I realised if I didn't leave now I'd be late again. Grabbing an apple from the kitchen and a bottle of water I said my goodbyes to my parents as I hurried out the door. They didn't question me rushing, they tend to ignore it seems as they have four other children. I'm the kind of middle child but obviously the favourite. There's Josh who's 20, I am a twin so there's me and Vinnie who are 18, Victoria who's 15 and Louie who is 14. We are a very close family though.
I made it to college just in time, the bell rang as I stumbled into registration. Chelsea was sat there with her bag of wonders ready to try and do something with my face. Our tutor rambled on about the usual things, you would think she realised no one cares by now.
"So what did Ben want to speak to you about so urgently?", I hissed trying to sound even a little bit interested. Her eyes rolled, her signature move.
"You don't have to be like that you know?"
"Like what?"
"You know exactly what Scarlett!"
"Alright, alright I'm sorry.I'm just jealous that's all! But carry on what did he want?"
"Well he was checking to see if I was free this weekend!" Her face lit up and she bit her lip to stop herself from getting too excited.
"Yes...and?"
"Well he said he is picking me from my house on Friday, and he is taking me away for the weekend in London!" She jiggled in her chair and squealed abit in excitement and of course I was happy for her so I played along. But we were rudely interrupted by our tutor Miss Palmer,"Calm down girls please, I have something important to announce."
Well this either means the cafeteria is serving some decent food for once or she's leaving. Hopefully it's both. Clasping her hands together and watching her fringe wobble as she did so she announced, "tomorrow we will be having a new transfer student that will be joining us, now obviously he will need some help around the school and after looking at his timetable," awww I feel sorry for the person who gets stuck with showing him round, when your asked you have basically been volunteered to be their friend for the rest of the year. I'm glad I have lessons that aren't very popular, I couldn't deal with someone depending on me like that. I was snapped out of my thought when Miss called my name, "Scarlett did you hear what I said?" Shaking my head in confusion she was quick to stop the anticipation
"I said you will be showing the new boy around so I expect you to be in early tomorrow." I nod and quickly face Chelsea, "Help!"~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well that's my first chapter done!
I hope it was okay!Xx
