Ruby

chapter 1

Rubys pov
I walked into my room,which i loved very much.it wasn't your typical high school average teenage girl room. I didn't have posters of the latest bands or a closet full of clothes that had "pink"or"hollister" written on them. I didn't need to anyways it wasn't my style to begin with. I liked the unique and vintage side of this world at least whats left of it. The 70's was one of my favorite erras. The way the clothes were and how people romed around.

     My bed was surrounded by books even on the walls. I loved books there like my escape. I had some pictures hanging. My mom helped me with my new upgrade before it was just plain walls with my bed and books. Lately I've been being myself without shame. I didn't care if people looked at me because i was different then every other girl.

  I sat on my bed and picked up one of my favorite books it was about how a girl learned to love again after a series tragedies sounds cliche but i liked it.
My eyes kept looking back and forth through the pages as i would bite my lip in concentration which was an ugly habit of mine. I flipped to next page its like i can flip the pages and read the story out loud to myslef because I've become too familiar with this book. "Ruby" my mother called out. "Coming"i hollered back. I put down the book and got off my bed and stretched. I walked downstairs to were my mother was preparing dinner for us. "Yeah mom" i asked while sitting on one of the chairs that were connected to the counters and spinned. "I just wanted to know if meatball soup was alright with you for tonight?"she said while chopping up carrots. I quickly nodded my head with excitement.it was one of my favorite mexican dishes.
     She chuckled lightly "did you do your homework already?" ."yeah at the library after school". I said while bitting one of the baby carrots. "Good how was school did anyone bother you today?" she looked deeply concerned. Ever since i told her a while back some kids were messing around with me she always has asked every day and she only found out because i came home crying one day.

       "No,and today was the usaul nothing to exciting" i said plainly. She nodded her head. You see it was just me and my mother. My father that i don't know very much of had passed away when i was 4 years old. It was because of a motorcycle accident. I have very faint memories of him that i really can't tell what they are its all a blurr. It was the day my mom was dreading she told him something like this would happen one day if he didn't quit for the sake of his fairly new family. Now to think of it before i happened was my parents one of those couples that would ride off together when they wanted without a single care in life? I w-"ruby?" my mom snapped me out of my gaze from staring at nothing.

"Hmm"i softly hummed out. "Nothing you just looked spaced out thats all. I nodded my head and looked down on my lap. "Im a go back to room to go read call me when dinner is ready" i said while hoping off the stool. She nodded her head and i walked back upstairs. I opened my door and closed it. I layed back down. I really don't want to go to school tomorrow cause of two people and their group.

     Grayson dolan and Ethan dolan. They were twins and they always made fun of me for being different and called me a freak in the hallways for their friends to laugh along with many other students. I don't know why they do what they do. Its not like i gave them any reason to. I mind my own buisness,im a honor student, i respect others, and i dont disrupt classes. They just don't know me enough to judge me. I starred at my ceiling. And i remembered what kurt cobain had once said " i'd rather be hated for who i am, than loved for who im not" so why act fake and try to live to other people's expectations. For one i kno-"ruby dinner is ready" "coming" i sighed and walked downstairs to go eat with my mother.
