That pink haired girl.

"So...what do you think?"

"OH"

"MY"

"GOD!"

"Kat, your mums gonna kill you!" Screamed Tilly. Getting up from laying on the floor to run her fingers through my hair. 

"She won't care, she never does!" I replied, shooing her hands away. I hate people touching my hair.

"Yh, but what about school? Mrs Turner will have you shoved in exclusion before you can blink" Stated Kim.

"Look, i don't care ok? I like it, its different." I said, turning to have another look in the mirror, "and anyway, its not too bright, Its hardly noticeable."

"Um, yh Kat, your hairs bright bloody pink, i think people are gonna notice!" Giggled Penny, taking her phone out of her bra and snapping a few pictures. 

I turned my music up, trying to block out their frantic talking. I love my friends to death but they don't half worry, so yh maybe my hair is bright pink? Who cares? And anyway, they don't know why i've dyed my hair, it might be a protest against animal abuse, or i might have done it for charity to raise money for cancer? Its not like i dyed it to impress a boy or anything... 

Ok i totally did, but don't say anything! Im not one who usually falls head over heels for some one, but my god hes fit! His sandy blonde hair flicks across his slightly tanned face, oh and those eyes! Deep green, like a dark forest, mmmm. Plus, hes has a stretcher! I love stretchers. I love his face. Sounds a bit creepy i know but if you saw Him! 

"Earth to Kat?" Kim tapped me on the shoulder. "What you thinking about?" 

"Oh, no on-i mean nothing!" I stuttered, smiling to myself.

They looked at eachother, nodded then ran at me, pining me to my bed. 

"If you don't tell us who your thinking about we'll tickle you!!" They yelled in union. 

"GET OFF!" i screamed, tyring to keep a straight face. Soon I was rolling around crying with laughter. 

"Fine, FINE! Do you know Tommy Carter?"

"YES! Oh my gosh Kat your not seeing Him are you? Hes bad news I'm telling you." Screeched Penny. 

"I heard he smokes..." Tilly added.

"And that he's killed a man, with one head butt!" beamed Kim, excitedly. We all looked at her in silence.

"It's just a rumour....ok i made it up,but he is bad news!" She confessed.

What were they talking about? Last time i met him he was a dream. He was funny, nice and wasn't at all 'Bad news' They must be mistaken, surely? 

"We forbid you from seeing Him!" Tilly demanded, all of them crossing their arms, holding stern faces. Yeh right, like that's gonna happen. 

"Promise?" Penny asked.

"Promise.." I replied flatly, keeping my crossed fingers out of sight.

After the girls had left i ventured down stairs. Mum was where she normally is, slumped on the sofa watching the shopping channel. She blows most of her money on that bloody channel! Last week she brought a tooth brush for her feet! Why would you even need that? 

"Hello mother." I said, sarcastically. 

"Hello daughter." She replied in the same tone. She looked up, raised her eyebrows, then returned to watching her beloved telly. 

"You look stupid." she told me, as the man on the screen showed off some god awful bed sheets.

"Thanks mum. Im going out." 

I then left the front room, grabbed my knitted navy blue cardigan, and slipped on my old, scruffy, brown army boots. Whipped out my phone, sent a text and left the house. 

The cold air pinched my face and the wind blew my wavy pink hair in the wind. I hate the wind. It touches my hair. I walked along my dreary street, passing rows of houses that looked just like mine. The sky was grey. This world is boring. That was in till i reached my destination-Camden Market.

I love Camden, its the only place you can really be yourself, not to mention all the cheap clothes and accessories you can buy! My phone lit up, i had a text. 

'I can see you' It read, It was from Tommy. My stomach flipped. My cheeks felt hot and my heart rate became fast. Did i look alright? Would he like my hair? Does my breath smell? To say i was panicking was an under statement. 

There was a tap on my shoulder, i turned around to see a sex go - I mean Tommy. 

"Hello Pinkie" A cheeky, lopsided smile crept onto his face.

"Shut up." I snapped back. What was i doing? I must look so childish.

"Do you...like it?"i asked, looking down at my feet, doing my best 'im so cute' voice.

"Yeh, you look beautiful, my little candy floss head" He laughed, then ran his fingers through my messy hair. Anyone else i would have punched in the face, but it was him, the most gorgeous boy in the world ever, so it was ok.

I stared into his eyes for a while, so green...so lovely...yet, at closer look, not quite all there..

He reached into his back pocket and produced a box, he poped the lid and took out a cigarette. "Want one?" He asked as lit his up with a Zippo.

"umm..im ok thanks" i said sheepishly, feeling even more childish under his gaze. Tilly was right, i guess he does smoke.

"Oh go on, its only abit of fun" His smile widened and he handed me one, lite it and stared at me.

I brought it to my lips and inhaled just a little. I splutter every where, coughing and choking. How embarrassing! He laughed, then prompted me to continue. So i did. It was like dirt in my lungs. It tasted absolutely disgusting. I threw it to the ground and stomped it out, trying to look as cool as possible.
