Harrison Hotel and Casino

Onyx’s POV

            My mother’s dreaded “talk”. I had no idea what this talk was going to be about, and personally, I was beyond reluctant to find out what it was about. All I knew, was that it was not good, it was probably a pep talk to turn me girly, or a round of insults from everyone in my family. Either way, it did not sound good.

            I walked into the kitchen, seeing mom, and my little sister Lizzie there, sitting next to each other side by side. Lizzie had an evil smile on her face, and that meant that sometihng bad was probably going to happen.

            “Annabelle Harrison, we have some very good news for you.” Mother announced, “We have finally found the right school for you. It is called Growing Alphas Prep. Since you have not been listening to us just by talk, we have to put it into a school’s hands. Now, at the beginning of their school year, you’ll start going there, and you’ll learn the ways of being a girl, and you’ll learn real confidence, and you’ll learn, why women do not have their hair as short as yours, unless they are freaks or otherwise.”

            My mouth went wide open, and I felt numb. I can’t believe that they were actually doing this, making me go to a school filled with stuck up brats, and people that hate people like me. Dammit, they have NEVER  done anything so evil anyone else.

            “See, big sister, you have lost the battle for once and for all. Mommy has already paid for the whole school year, and Mommy has given maximum credit on your card. You also, won’t be rooming with a guy, so sad.” Lizzie giggled.

            “Whatever.” I sighed, “You may put me in a school full of bitches, but I am not becoming one. I know that this fact will burst your bubble, but there are some things that you just can’t make me do. Sorry.” I then started to walk out of the kitchen.

            “No, no, no my Annabelle.” Mother announced, “we still have talking to do.”

            I rolled my eyes and sat on the island, with my Mother and evil, satin spawned sister Lizzie. Lizzie was twirling her curly hair around her finger, giving me an evil smile. If we weren’t related, I would hate both these people with a passion. I already do, but I can’t say that out loud to anyone except my closest friends Steven, Jesse, Aaron, and Alex.

            “Annabelle, this is for the best for you. If you ever going to get anywhere in this world, you have to be like Lizzie and I, total alphas. You know that this is the truth, all of the people that are famous have always been popular, and look and act like us. None of them dress like men, or have their hair like yours. Most of them style their hair, and also wear makeup. You know this very well, we have told you this since the day you were born, and you used to agree too.” Mother said calmly.

            “By the way, Anna, Mommy says that when you get to the school, there is a hair salon there, and to get extentions, maybe even highlights, you need them.” Lizzie said.

            I just sat there, as Mother lectured me on what I have to be to suceed. I really did not care, none of that was actually what I wanted to be. I really just wanted to be my tomboy self. I was popular at school for what I was now, not for what my mother wanted me to be.

            My mother just doesn’t get it.

            After a whole half hour of having to listen to the two witches drone on and on, they let me go back to my room. I had from the lecture, figured out that there were malls there at the school, and that this school started on August 15th. I had fifteen more days to hang out with my friends, and I had fifteen more days until I would have to face the demons of prep school.

            This thought, was one I tried to think about the least.
