Lost Margo

Graduation|| Margos P.O.V

Another day of the same bullshit with the same bullshit people. Hi I'm Margo Roth Speiglemen. You may know me from John Greens famous book "Paper Towns", but here's a surprise, that's not some fictional book. All of what you may have read or seen in theaters is my life unfolding in front of your eyes. Some of you think I'm "bad ass", but in reality I'm just another teenage girl looking for a way out. But unlike most people I stick with my plan and manage to leave, then there's the part of being found and always coming back.
I turn my car off pulling my keys out of the ignition, laying my head against the steering wheel closing my eyes.
"You'll make it out alive today Margo"
I boost myself with my stupid inspiration everyday, otherwise I wouldn't be able to pull off my "popular, perfect, gorgeous Margo act" everyday.
I step out onto the pavement, slinging my book bag over my shoulder. The wind brushes itself against my skin, blowing my hair in every direction. I spot my group of "friends" by the picnic table out front.
I trudge over to them, stepping one foot directly in front of the other counting my steps. Lacy smiles and waves at me I smile back as I step up to the table.
Lacy- Hey Margo!
Me- Hey lace, don't you look ravishing today.
Lacy- Oh, thank you! You look very bad ass today!
I mix my style up everyday. Today I wore olive green skinny jeans, my old combat boots and a dirty nirvana shirt filled with holes, topped off with my black leather jacket.
Me- don't I look bad ass everyday?
Lacy- this is true. OH MY GOD! Did I already tell you the news?!
I widened my eyes not expecting lazy to scream in my face, I laughed at her excitement.
Me- I don't quite think so? Haha what is it?
Lacy- okay so you know how Hannah whitmer was supposedly sleeping with Dan Peterson?
Me- I mean yeah everyone knows why?
Lacy- SHES PREGANT!
Me- HAHAHA! Your fucking kidding me right? She's literally a freshman and he's a senior.
Lacy- I knowww that's why it's funny. I heard she stayed home today because she was sick throwing up.
Me- oh lord. Well I'm going inside, text me at lunch.
Lacy- okay, mush! Love ya!
Me- yeah yeah, muah.
Jesus. Hannah whitmer pregnant by Dan Peterson. The football coaches son, can't wait to see that big guy run down the hall to kick his sons ass.
I stopped at my locker taking out my calculus books when Q came up beside me.
Q- I heard you got pregnant by Dan huh?
Me- oh you heard? Yeah it's twins
Q- at least justify me with naming one after me okay?
Me- in your dreams big boy
Q- you can't say I didn't try.
Me- very funny, so who you going to prom with?
Q- well you see, three girls asked my last night but I'm not sure which one I want to say yes to.
Me- your sister and your two gay friends do not count Q I thought we went over this?
Q- little do you know one of them was my mom
Me- and that's even better for you how?
I smiled at him. I've missed Q, even though we sorta cut each other off through out most of high school I'm extremely glad we became friends again.
