A Rose with Thorns

Chapter 5

Selena's POV

Hearing my alarm go off, I yawned and stretched before standing up and switching off the alarm.

Slowly strolling in the bathroom, I stripped off my clothes and got under the shower.

After I was done with cleaning up myself and blow drying my hair, I slipped on underwear and looked out the window. It was a rather gloomy day and it rained lightly.

So it's the car today. Damn it. I picked out vintage skinny jeans, a black tank with a dark green, warm zipper hoodie on top.

I looked at myself in the mirror and applied a bit of make up and mascara, leaving out the lipstick today.

When I was satisfied with my looks, I grabbed my bag and quickly walked down in the kitchen, eating a bowl of cereals. Putting it in the dishwasher, I glanced at the clock on the wall and realized that I was early but I still made my way out of the house, somehow not being able to stand the silence of this empty house.

Settling myself in the car, I brought the engine to life before opening and closing the garage once I was outside, I pulled onto the main road and drove to school.

The drive wasn't as fun as yesterday but still nice in this car. It was a BMW 6 series something.

I'm not that into cars, but it drove like a dream and was fast which was important, to me at least. Pulling onto the parking lot of the school which was almost empty, so I had a lot of choices. Parking near where I parked yesterday, I killed the engine before getting out and locking it.

Pulling the hoddie over my head, I put the keys in my bag and quickly walked into the building. Enjoying the silence that laid there, I made my way to my locker and put my bag in it and decided to wander around the school, getting to know everything.

The few students here saw me and decided to ignore me. Wise decision, I thought and kept on walking.

Once I had seen everything, I noticed how my hair was totally fucked up from the rain and cold weather. Groaning, I walked over to my locker, literally punched in the combination and got out a brush and hair tie. I shut the locker and opened the door to the girls' restroom.

Standing in front of the mirror, I brushed through my hair and tamed it into a high ponytail, which still reached past my shoulder blades. Feeling a lot better, I walked back to my locker and watched the halls fill with students.

When they spotted me, I heard whispers about the incidents from yesterday. Smiling devilishly to myself, starting to like my repetition, I turned to my locker and got out the things, I needed but passed on my bag, I just didn't feel like caring it around.

Just as I wanted to turn around, I felt a presence behind me and was sure who it was. "What do you want, Justin?" I blunted out turning around and I was right, it was him.

"My answer's still the same, sexy. You" he grinned at me with his cocky smile. I just rolled my eyes and groaned.

"How did you even know it was me?" he asked, trying to keep conversation going.

"Cause you're the only one stupid enough to try to talk to me" I explained, bored and annoyed of all this.

He was silenced for a second and I let a slight smile play on my lips. Silenced the player! Damn girl, you have a streak going on here.

"Nice talking to you" I said, my words and tone dripping with sarcasm and started walking away. Someone stopped me and tugged me back. Of course, it was him. Grunting out of annoyance, I snapped "What?"
