Hey y'all
Special shout out/dedication to Nety for the awesome cover.
Hope you enjoy
---------------------------
Standing in a bank, holding 2 huge ass guns, was not how I expected to be spending my Saturday morning.
Around me hovered a stretched, strangled silence...
Until : " Everyone get the fuck on the floor and don't even try to do anything funny!" my best friend yells.
Silently everyone obeys. She then orders a lady dressed in a pant suit to show her where the safe is, while holding her glock (gun) to the lady's
head and leaves with a very confused looking Priya. (Aka the other best friend)
I stand still, careful not to make eye contact with any of the hostages, other than my partner standing beside me.
Why oh why oh cheesecake why!
Why did I have to come up with this stupid idea? And why'd the chocolate muffin did they all agree to it?
-I have seriously got to stop swearing using food items as substitutes
People will think I've gone crazy...well here I am talking to myself
Sooo I guess I'm too late then- Flapjack I'm stupid! I guess living in a small town, attending the same school and of course why don't I throw in a
messed up family in the mix to make the cake more interesting, have and will lead to me probably getting wheeled down to the nearest Looney
bin, screaming :"GOD SAVE THE QUEEN", holding a septre ,wearing a ballgown and crown.
(Yes I have thought about this happening for quiet some while now)
I'll try not to complain too much about my ratty life, but no promises!
My friends= the only stable and secure thing a have in my life aside from my studies (of course)
They are the one thing I can an could always count on. We don't all have fun and amazing backstories that we are proud of. We all have hard
lives, and today, that comes to an end!
Tomorrow we start anew.
We shall have no memories from the past we will leave behind nor shall it be a past that we will relive!
There's 4 of us altogether.
Priya, Netanya (Nety), Rebekah (Becks) and me (sorry,Hailey).
We met through our mother's. Our mother's were best friends growing up and still are. They were the "Plastics" in high school, plus they had the
ultra "mean girl" vibe going on for them. To this very day, they stayed the same self-centred, ratched, " plastics " , that they truly are at heart.
As for our "fathers " (ha, if I can call them that)
They are sorry excuses for "dads"
My "father" left as soon as he found out my mom was pregnant and never looked back. That's all I know and that's all I ever want to know.
Becker's mom and dad are divorced, but its not the same as it was before...
Nety's dad is a business man and like all business men, pit their work before their families. Nety sometimes goes months without even receiving a phone call from him.
And Priya's dad, he's the silent one. He doesn't do anything when her mother abuses her. He stands silently watching them, not wanting to draw
attention to himself. In my opinion that's freaking creepy!
But you know, not judging or anything.
To say that we come from rough backgrounds is well, not far from true, but also quietan understatement.
I mean it could be worse. We still have each other.
The school we all attend (Yes we're still in highschool) is average. Everything there is, well except for the people...And the bullying. People here
at school, are worse than vultures feeding on their young! Or somebody throwing away a piece of perfect vanilla goodness also reffered to as
cake!!!!!!!
They'll befriend you, find your weakness and use it against you, humiliate you, kill your soul to make sure youre dead inside and then they'll
feed on the humiliation you've received as "fuel" for their "social power and reputation" they use to control everyone with.
At school, my friends ditch most of the time, coming in mainly to write tests or turn in assignments , as for me, I attend all my classes, but make
sure to stay away from any social events and spend lunch meeting up with the girls.
I keep to myself.
In society's eye we don't exist, and we prefer it that way.
********************************* End of Backstory
Leading to this moment, happened In a very normal and sane way NOT!
5 words : I was in the shower...
The most common place for a person to come up with Amazing and Smart ideas. HA .ha .ha I wish.
This was The most stupidest idea I have ever thought of conjuring up In my 17 years of complete and utter waste of universal matter/existence!
To think that the others thought it was flipping genius is completely and utterly beyond me!
And this questions, if everything "up there" is screwed on tight enough.
My thoughts abruptly come to a stop when gunshots echoed across the silenced, hollow room...
Screaming soon followed, turning towards Nety, i felt my throat go dry as I mirrored her expression............

So that was the first chapter. Hope you guys enjoyed it
