'Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock'
I sat there staring at my clock, just watching the hours go by, this is how productive my morning has been.
After my mum gave me an hour long lecture about curfews she finally let me be, but not without grounding me for a week. I was originally grounded for 2 weeks but after I told her that I had some transportation problems so she eased up a bit.
It was day 1 of my grounding and I was already bored out of my mind.
You know who's fault this is? That assfaced, butt-smelling ex boyfriend of mine. If it wasn't for him being at that party then I would have been perfectly fine and then I would've been home before cerfew leaving me ungrounded, if that's even a word.
I swear, after the drama I have had with boys I'm seriously considering joining a nunnery, atleast that way I will be safe from those retched creatures.
As you can probably tell, I'm a bit of a man hater.
I never used to be like this, Travis ruined me and in the process ruined all hopes of me ever having another relationship.
I know I sound like a major drama queen, but when your boyfriend of 3 years sleeps with your best friend you're bound to be left with some emotional scarring.
My Mum's voice calling me downstairs pulled me out of my trance.
I pulled myself off of my beautiful bed and took a look at myself in the mirror.
My hair was in a sloppy bun, my face makeup free and I was still in my elmo pyjamas, I shrugged my shoulders and proceeded to walk downstairs.
I heard voices coming from the kitchen, I could make out the high pitched voice as my mum but couldn;t for the life of me recognise the other.
I cautiously made my way towards the kitchen careful to keep quiet. I tiptoed towards the door that led to my kitchen and put my ear against it straining to hear what the conversation was about.
I heard my name being said a few times and frowned, why would my Mum be talking to someone about me?
Suddenly the door swung open and because I didn't move fast enough I was sent sprawling backwards.
"Oh my god, Eris I'm so sorry! I didn't even know you were there, are you alright?" A voice that sounded much clearer now that it was close asked me.
I glanced at the person who had knocked me on my ass and immedietly glared. He offered his hand to me but I ignored it and stood up myself.
I crossed my arms and stared him straight in the eye.
"You have a lot of nerve showing up here Travis, you are not welcome in this house".
"I just wanted to see you, ask you out for breakfast or something so we can catch up".
I smiled sweetly "Sorry Travis, but I am currently grounded which means that I can't go anywhere as of now".
"Oh no that's alright dear, Travis explained to me what happened last night and how it was all a big misunderstanding so you are free to go" My Mum said popping her head through the kitchen door.
I groaned internally, I never told my Mum about what happened with Travis, she just thought that we had broken up because of the move, I love my Mum but if I ever told her the truth she would constantly coddle me and that is something I definitely don't want.
"Great! Now why don't you go get dressed Eris and then we can go get some breakfast" Travis said smiling enthusiastically.
I threw him a scorching glare which made him flinch and walked as slow as possible up to my room.
