For Elaina everyday is the same, go to school , sit there for seven hours and go home.  Sometimes some days are different like , last Friday when Elaina got two extra french  fries on her lunch tray. Everyone hangs out in a different group at her school , there's the goths, geeks, football players and...the cheerleaders. She didn't necessarily have a group , or should I say .... fit in. It wasn't exactly easy to become a popular cheerleader out of no where or become the next Albert Einstein in an instant. No matter how hard she tried she just couldn't seem to fit in she was... different.
The few rays of the morning sun shined through Elaina's curtains, it took every ounce of her energy to lift herself out of bed and to the bathroom. Rubbing her eyes she turned the shower faucet on and began to get undressed. She rubbed her head and looked at herself in the mirror , remembering what had once been there.... hair. She jerked her head to the left and closed her eyes , she didn't want to think about it... her cancer.
Once she got out of the shower she went to her room to get dressed. She opened her closet and stood staring at her array of black shirts. She picked out a usual black shirt with the words "Panic! At the disco" printed on the front. She didn't spend much time on picking out jeans because all of her jeans were black anyways.
Elaina ran down stairs to the kitchen to get breakfast. She walked over to the cupboard to get her cereal , but the note taped to the door of the pantry caught her attention before she had the chance to open the door. Elaina hesitantly pulled the note off the door and gently opened it. It read "Dear Elaina , I'm sorry I had to run some errands , just walk to school today , love you lots - mom" .
"Ugh..." Elaina puffed. She grabbed the cereal and milk and ate her breakfast , before running upstairs to get her shoes and back pack for school. She plopped down to the ground to put on her old black converse and stood back up grabbed her black beanie , put it on , grabbed her back pack and ran down stairs to the front door.
Elaina stepped off the front porch and ran down her street towards her school. She slowly ran out of breath and came to a halt. She bent down to the ground and remembered that her chemo therapy affects how many things she can and can't do. As she sat there she heard distant familiar voices. "Ugh ... Beatrice and Samantha..." Elaina complained. They got closer and closer until they were right next to Elaina who just looked up at them. "Elaina ..." Beatrice said . "Beatrice ..." Elaina said. " looks like you're having some problems there huh?" Samantha butted in. "You think ?!" Elaina snapped. Beatrice grabbed Elaina's hand to help her up but Elaina slapped her hand and pushed herself up , brushed her self off and kept walking.
Beatrice and Samantha didn't hesitate to chase after Elaina and push her to the ground. Elaina huffed and pushed her self back up , she continued her walk to school.
Elaina reached the school doors and stood for a minute staring at the maroon door mats. She hesitantly opened the school doors and walked in. As soon as she entered she lost her train of thought , all of the rushing students in the hallway made her lose it. She kept walking down the long hallway and all she could see was couples making out by the lockers and girls talking about the latest gossip. Elaina stared at the floor as she passed by her crush... Cole Miller. She had been in love with those light blue eyes and platinum blonde hair for a good solid five years. Cole never acknowledged Elaina's presence , she didn't think much of it ... but if still hurt. Elaina assumed that he ignored her because he was a football player... little did she know she was wrong. Elaina reached her locker and opened it. She grabbed her English text book and a pencil and headed to class. As she walked into the class room she felt as if she was being stared at, she awkwardly headed to her desk and looked around ... she WAS being stared at. Everyone was watching her, Elaina then remembered that this was her first day back to school in two months and that a lot of things have changed since then. She lost weight , her hair, her energy , and became extremely pale. Elaina realized that things won't be the same ... maybe even worse than they were before....
