"Luna! Luna come here! You'll be late for school!" My mother yelled from the kitchen.
"Ok mom I'll be down in a minute!" I replied. I strap on my push-up bra and throw on a 3 Doors Down band shirt. Hearing my fathers alarm in the next room, I realize I only have ten minutes until I have to leave. I quickly wiggle myself into a pair of black skinny jeans and tie up my sneakers. I pick up my backpack, throw it over my shoulders and walk out my door and into the hallway.
I'm greeted with a shove, I fall into my door and have the breath knocked out of me. I look up gasping for breath. Standing over me is my abusive older sister Sunny.
She gets into my face saying,"Hey Twig! Don't you be fucking stupid today at school and never ever mention that I'm your sister. Got it?" I finally get my breath back and nod. She kicks my knee as she walks away and down the stairs. I slowly stand up and begin down the hallway.
"Luna, what happened? My father asked in between brushes of his toothbrush.
"I tripped is all, I'm fine." I lied back, knowing that telling on my sister only makes it worse. I walk down the stairs and turn into the kitchen. Sunny stands against the wall eating a bagel and texting her boyfriend, my younger brother Tommy is sitting at the table coloring and eating a piece of bread with Nuttela on it, and my mom stands at the counter finishing packing our lunches.
"Morning mom," I say as I walk by her,"I'm leaving now."
"Luna you must eat something." Mom says.
"Alright fine." I say grabbing a banana. I walk by Tommy and say, "See ya you rascal." As I scruff up his hair. I step outside of our small suburban houses and walk my path onto the road, taking a left I walk up a slight incline to the top of the hill and walk down the path around the football field and into the parking lot. As I walk up to the entrance I think to myself,"Alright first day at the high school, I can do this." I push open the glass doors and walk in. A paper air plane flies past my head and two knock-offs run by trying to get it. In the corner a couple sits making out and the other corner is filled with pot heads already high even though it's like 7:45 in the morning. I walk by them and up the stairs. A few guys are testing to see if they can slide down the railing and totally failing. In the corner I see a few friends at one of the tables. I walk over and sit down next them and begin to talk. The air is filled with, how was your summer?'s And how have ya been?'s I answer happily but begin to look around the cafeteria for my best friend Scarlet. I spot her on the other side of the room, And tell everyone how happy I am to see them and begin walking towards her. When she spots me she jumps out of her seat and runs toward me with her red-purple hair trailing behind. When she gets to me we almost fall over because of the force of her hug. " OMG LUNA ITS BEEN SOOOOOOO LONG HOW WAS YOUR SUMMER? OMG NEVERMIND LETS GO FIND WHAT HR YOURE IN! I HOPE YOURE IN MINE." She squealed as she squeezed me to death. She takes my hand and and leads me over to the list, "Bult, Luna. There you are, room 215 same as me. Yay this year will be soooo much fun. We walk over to an empty table and talk about our summers until everyone else in our main group of friends makes their way over to us. Sitting to my right is Scarlet, the hottest and nicest out of us. To her right sits Toni, the less attractive of the two guys in the group. To his right is Samantha, but we all call her Sammy. To her right sits Nick, my old boyfriend. To his right is Amy the smartest, richest, and probably the most likely to succeed. To her right sits Anna, the blonde who only hangs with us cause of her crush on Nick who is completely oblivious. And Finally to her right sits me, the lanky girl abused by her sister loved by her brother and cut by herself.
After ten minutes we've all caught up and split into our little conversations. Scarlet and I, Toni and Amy, and Nick and Anna. I had asked Scarlet if she met any guys over summer and she began to respond when the bell that tells everyone that they need to start making their way to class rings. Everyone begins to stand up and walk out when the loudspeaker comes on telling all the freshmen to meet in the gymnasium.
