Fitting In // MGC

Chapter 1

*Shelby*

My parents never really cared for me. It was always about my little brother. Steven this, Steven that. He was always a terrible child. Got bad grades, always in trouble in school. But they treat him like he will do better next time.

As I'm listening to Ariana Grande i can hear my parents quarreling to each other as always. Im use to it so i just turn my music up louder and continuing doing my homework.

I finish my last math problem and i hear a knock on my door. I get up and open it to see Steven. "Mom and dad left could i hang with my friends?" He asks. I sign and shake my head.

He is halfway down the steps and i yell, "if you come back drunk i swear!"

He laughed and left. I honestly don't think he will be sober when he comes home. As i sit back down on my bed i get a text from my friend, Brealiz.

From Braeliz <3 :
Hey wanna go to the mall tonight?

To Braeliz <3 :
Sure, my parents left so I'd love to.

From Braeliz <3 :
Sweet pick u up at 6. Byeeee

To Brealiz <3 :
Byeee.

I look at the clock to realize its 5:00. "Crap" i say to myself. I only have an hour. I get back up and head to the bathroom. I take a shower and put my makeup on.

I walk out of the bathroom and choose my outfit. I put on a pink skirt with a white crop top and i put mu white converse on. I look back at the clock and it reads 6:08.

I walk down stairs and I decide to wait outside for her. As i open the door i see Braeliz about to knock on the door.

"Oh hey," she says laughing. "Hey," I say back smiling. I walk out of the house and go into her car. "Let me guess...you had mcdonalds before you came here." I say laughing. "Hey! i was hungry."

There car ride was usual. Us singing to taylor swift, or Ariana grande.

We made it to the mall and the first store Braeliz wanted to go in wad Hot Topic. I have never hear of that place in my life until now.

As we head toward the store i can tell its not my type of store. Its more her stuff. She like dark and girly clothing and i like girly stuff. When we walk in i notice this green haired boy who is in one of my classes.

I don't know why but he intrigues me. He is nothing like me. He turns my way and notices I'm starring at him. He winks at me then leaves.

"Do you know who that is? He looks familiar." I whisper to Braeliz. She looks at me and laughs. "Don't worry about him, he's not good for you." She turns back to what she was looking at.

"If you were thinking about talking to him, don't. He only talks to people who look at and act like him." She said. Well if i wanna talk to him i should at least by some clothes from here.

I walk around the store and I found some skinny jeans and band tees like My Chemical Romance, All Time Low, etc. When i get home i'm gonna listen to them all.
