Robin (appearance above)

-The Next Day, 3:47-

I spent the night at Jill's house happily. She had this amazing spongey mattress that felt like a marshmallow. Her duvet was smooth as silk. I slept like a log. Time passed. Soon it was almost four, and Jill grabbed me.

'Shelby! There's this awesome party down at Robin's house, you know her, Jamaican, wavy black hair, nose piercings..?' 'Yeah, I know Robin.' Jill grinned. Its gonna be LIT, girlfriend! It starts at four, ends at nine. Long I know, but we are so going.'

When Jill wants to do something, she does it. She dragged me to Robin's house. I knew her from college, but she doesn't speak to anyone much, I was surprised to find out that this introverted shy girl was throwing a 'lit' party. I slipped into a black skirt and checkered top. I tied my rainbow hair in a ponytail, and put some glitter in it. That's my secret to make it look magical. Anyway!

We knocked on her door, showing a deflated looking Robin behind it. Her hair was covering her eye. 'Heeeyyy Robbie! Nice to see you!' Jill trilled. Robin's lips twitched. 'Th-thanks, you too Jill. Thought I'd throw a party because my boyfriend just turned 22.' She mumbled. She kept on brushing her hair more over her eye. 'Oh cool! He's Carl, right? Great! Let's get this party started!' Said Jill.

An hour later, and I remember why I hate, hate, hate parties. Crowded people, head throbbing noise, Nothing to do... WHY IS JILL SO PERSUASIVE! I stuck by her, avoiding everyone else. She was chattering about the people who were here when I spotted a boy, who I think was Carl, her boyfriend, dragging Robin into the hall. She looked terrified. 'Uh, I'm gonna grab us another drink, heh heh..' I said to Jill, and dashed to the hall door. I could hear Carl's muffled voice. I peeked at him from the door. He was very tall, around 6'4, and had short spiky blonde hair. He had piercing green eyes and was pretty muscular, actually.

'I told you not to talk about my job! It was shit and I don't like my girlfriend talking about me getting fired Robin... Stop shaking! God you're so fucking jumpy. Get a grip.' he growled. I saw her untuck her hair from her eye. That's when I saw it. A black eye. Ohhh my gosh. Shelby, nows the time to step in! 'Idiot, put your hair back! You want two black eyes?' He grunted. I could see her eyes watering. Carl groaned and lifted his arms. I yelled and slammed open the door into his face.

'WHAT THE FUCK YOU CRAZY ASS BITCH!' He screamed at me, on the floor. I was shaking. Shit. Why did I do that?! He growled and got on his feet. His fist somehow connected with my face, and the last thing I heard was Robin screaming...

'SHELBY, NO!'
