Belinda

Belinda:

It was a tiring Tuesday morning, yet Belinda was up before the sun. She hummed quietly to herself as she applied her super-sparkly eyeliner; she was always humming, singing, or tapping her fingers. So she hummed and did her makeup. She looked through her enormous makeup box and ran down her list: eyeliner, eyeshadow, mascara, cover up, foundation, powder, blush, eyebrows. Check, check, check, check, check, check, check, check! Sometimes she wished she didn't wear all this makeup, but then she looked at her blotchy skin, dark under eye circles, and veiny eyelids and decided she needed it.

Once she looked decent enough she put her clothes on, got her bag together, and walked to the bus. When the bus finally pulled up, she took a deep, steadying breath and walked up the stairs, greeting her friends with a smile that came so easy to her now, even if it wasn't a hundred percent genuine.

"I told another lie today, and I got through this day, no one saw through my games" she sang under her breath as she threw away her lunch. She didn't like eating lunch, didn't really like eating in general. Yet she did it anyway, because people would label you 'crazy' if you didn't, and she was tired of being labeled. But sometimes she was naughty and did what she wanted, but that wasn't often. Just today really.

There were about 30 minutes left of lunch, so she decided to go for a walk. Her friends were kind of annoying so she went alone; there was a purpose to this walk anyway. She would never, ever admit it, but she was taking this walk (and every other one she had ever taken) to see him, the guy of her dreams, Krys. Well he wasn't really the guy of her dreams, but she liked him...a lot. So whenever the opportunity arose, she would take a nice little stroll by him and his friends and usually he would come over and talk if he saw her. So she walked by him, he came over and talked, and everything was good. After that she went to the band room and enjoyed the rest of her lunch with her fellow band geeks.
