My red jumper is the only thing keeping my body warm, it feels like the rest of my body had been encased in ice. The jumper wasn't as bright as it had once been, being thrown around in the washing machine had taken it's toal on the once bright and vibrant jumper. I look down at my feet and let out a deep breath, my baby toe had ripped through the sock exposing the pale skin, i head upstairs to retrieve another pair from the chest next to my large dubble bed. Sitting down on the soft Egyptian cotton sheet letting my body relax pulling off the torn pair of socks and replace them with the new ones. I pull the dark blue band of the socks up my ankles as far as they will reach. This was probably why so many of my socks ended up with holes in them.
I slip into my  unnamed, unbranded shoes. What was the point in brands. The answer was none, none what's so ever. Why people go out and spend 60 pounds on a t-shirt when they could buy one for 10 pounds which was basically the same i Will never know. Why go out and spend a ridicules about of money on Calvin Klein underwear when the only person who would see them was me, well and ella but she didn't care about my lack of interest in named items, she wore them herself which also didn't bother me as long as she didn't expect me to go out and buy her some Armani perfume for there three year anniversary in one month's time.
In three years we had argued only a hand full of times and that wasnt from lack of trying, there had always been thing to bitch about or something one of us done wrong but argument rearly occured and if one did it didn't end well. At the age of sixteen kie had tricked me into going on a blind date. Ella kie told me, just Ella, nothing else. For two week all i had was a first name. It was the worst thing i had ever done meeting a stranger in a sushi bar of all places i hated sushi even more then i hated ella's stupid upsession with YouTube's.
But me and Ella hit it of almost immidatly. After making a fool of myself with a mouth full of disgusting raw fish That Tasted Like It Had been left out in the sun all after noon. It got to the point where i couldnt stand the taste anymore and empted my mouth into one of  the mountain of napkins on our table. To my suprise she laughed "ill take you dont like sushi either" she later on admitted that kie had told her that i loved sushi. The little prick, he  knew I hated sushi.

I clicks the latch on the door and pull it open slowly being carefully not to his my body with a wave or freezing cold air. The November air had a life of its own one second your stand there feeling joyfully and happy and the next well your blown of your feet landing flat on your ass with the whole college campus laughing at you to the point where their heads look like there going to explode. Yeah that has happened once or twice. The door needs a fresh coat of paint this year's sun had changed the colour of the wood now it just looked dull and faded like all of its happiness had been blown away by the whistling wind. Here goes nothing i think, stepping out into the gale force winds i almost looses my balance.
"Bag" i hear my mother shout from the dinning room. dasheshing back into the house i grab my bag from the dinning room table. Janet my mother is sat there with her nose in a book and a warm mug of coffee. The steam traveling from it's serves looking like the most wonderful thing in the world.
I debate weather i should stay for a mug myself but my first class starts in half an hour and i still had to make time to get to college. I let my head drop back why is life so hard i cry. It didn't matter anyway jannet is best left alone while she's reading, i have made the mistake of distracting her on multiple occasions.
"Can you not see I'm ready"
"What, it's not like I'm doing something"
"Talk to me one more time and you will be living on the street" just a few of the things she has said to me in the past.
Bye mom love You, no reply. This time i keep my balance stepping out of the door, hearing it click behind me is the signal to leave and make my way to the bus stop.

When i arrive five minutes later i lean over to check the times but finds myself looking down at a blank white board. I hate kids i didnt see how it was funny to brake the bus stops so that no one knew what time the Buss arrived. It's immature and petty. A couple of minutes later and the bus arrives.
By the time i get on to the college campus the wind has slowed to a steady breeze. I can see Ella from across the courtyard sitting in the café with Josie and Laura, them sipping their overly priced refreshments while Ella stairs at them like she had just discovered  a new species of homosapion. She doesn't notice me as i walk through the revolving doors and into the warm café. Laura sees me first and then Josie her dark curly hair tied up as always revealing her defined collar bones  and dark skin. I place my long finger against my lips to signal them not to give me away. keeping a straight face they continue like normal.
"Boo" i shout jabbbin my two fingers into her side and tucks my head into her long blonde hair inhaling the smell of her coconut sented shampoo. She let's out a scream during the attention of the crowd in the café.
