"Burn, baby burn, she's a witch, she's a witch.."
My alarm on my phone was blasting Abagail by motionless in white, one of my favorite bands.Well, I guess I should introduce myself. I'm Alexis, just turned 20 and in college to become a psychologist. You might ask why I want to be a psychologist? Well, I just really wanna help people with the same problems I had... well still have I guess. Basically my whole childhood and teenage years were shit because of my parents. They didn't accept me for who I am. I got depressed over time, and they said that I was just faking it, because I had no reason to be depressed. It was pretty rough.... at the age of 11 I started cutting myself, at 12, my dad told me to kill myself, and I tried too. 13 was when I started to starve myself, something I still have problems with today. Honestly, they made my life hell, and I couldn't wait to move out like I am now. The only thing that's kept me alive all these years is music.
Music is my life. I can sing, but I have horrible stage fright due to my anxiety. Growing up was also pretty hard because my parents couldn't accept the fact that i'm bisexual. Nothing hurts more than knowing your parents are ashamed of you, for something you can't even control. I should probably get out of bed, but i'm so tired. I'm always tired because I never eat... whoops.
I walk to the bathroom and look in the mirror. Disgusting as usual. I decide to leave my short dark brown, almost black hair with reddish/auburn streaks that fall right above my shoulders natural today, slightly wavy. My bangs, which used to be a fringe during my scene phase ( ahaha ) are a light brown, almost blonde color. I clip them up with a bobby pin and put in my septum piercing. I do my usual makeup, nude eyeshaddow with a thin/medum coat of black eyeliner with a slight cat eye, and of course my foundation and bubblegum pink lipstick. I have really long eyelashes, and I put on like 5 different mascaras so they look fake, but honestly I like when they look fake, I just like big eye lashes haha i'm weird. I decide to wear one of my baggy t-shirts with a grey and white lace print, high wasted shorts with nylons underneath, and vans. I love fashion, it's how I express myself. I really like vintage and grunge clothing, it's what I usually wear.
I walk out of my apartment, not knowing where im going. I don't know what streets i'll be roaming today. It's the summer, so I don't have school anymore, and well I don't exactly have friends, I never really had friends, so I spend most of my days exploring. I decide that I should go to this really cool gothic store I always see but never go into. I love gothic things :)
It's so nice today, 70 degrees and sunny. I take my time, enjoying the happiness of these Chicago streets. I'm carefree for once, I don't really care what people think of me today, because for once, i'm enjoying my life.
I walk into the gothic store and the band HIM is playing, god I love this band. I silently mouth some of the lyrics. This place is really cool, they've got some vintage band shirts, cds and records, posters, jewelry, body percings, and clothes, I want to buy the whole store! And to make it even better the cashier's pretty cute. Ahh I love goth boys haha ;p.
My favorite song by HIM, vampire heart is on, and I can't help but singing and dancing to it. I don't give a fuck if the hot cashier thinks i'm crazy, fuck I already am crazy! "Hey, isn't this HIM, that's you're favorite band right" "Yeah haha it is, I like this store now. OHMYGOD THEY HAVE EDGAR ALLAN POE BOOKS HERE", I hears some guys saying. Huh, I love Edgar Allan Poe, he's my biggest influence .
Oh and i'm still dancing like no ones watching. As the song ends i'm laughing like cazy and stop dancing. I actually smile a real smile for the first time in so long. I catch my breath and hear people clapping behind me. Fuck. Well I just embarrassed myself . I turn around and se five guys staring at me, they look familiar , but the lights are dimmed in this store so I can't really see. I smile awkwardly, obviously embarased and say
"Oh um.. hi . hashtag awkward , but I couldn't resist it, that's my favorite song haha don't judge me"
"Trust me, I wont judge you, that's my favorite song haha ! " , one of the guys said.I swear, iv'e heard that voice before.
"Ahaha wait, do I know you? come over here in the light so I can see you. Oh that sounded stalkerish, well I can assure you i'm not a stalker, i'm just a socially awkward human being hahah!" ugh you dumbfuck. smooth, now they think you're even weirder. We walk into the bright side of the store and I can't believe my eyes. It's them... their here.
Motionless in white just saw me dancing my ass off to HIM. oh shit.
A/N leave advice in the comments please??? I tried really hard on this and I know it's kinda short haha but yeah I really think this is gonna end up good because I have a pretty good storyline I'm planning on (; thanks for reading
