Water through your fingers(GirlxGirl)

Transfer Student

We pulled up to my house and I leaned out the window to put in my code to open the gates, I notice a black SUV sitting down the street from my house and sigh.

"They don't even try to hide the fact that they're following you anymore." Anthony says and pulls through the gate as soon as it's wide enough and drives up my circular drive and stops infront of my door.

The light in my living room is still on and I see the curtains flutter before the front door is thrown open and Martha stands there with her hands on her hips as she glares at the tinted car windows.

I sigh again and tell Anthony bye and he chuckles at my situation.

''Good luck boss." I hear before I shut the door and walk up my steps and stop in front of an angry Martha.

"Do you have any idea what time it is young lady?" She asks as her foot starts tapping.

"Well?" She demands when I don't answer. I smile at her and gave her my puppy dog eyes and she sighed in frustration then smiled.

I pat myself on the back, Martha might get frustrated at me sometimes but she could never stay mad at me for too long.

I leaned down and gave her a peck on her cheek, I always try not to make Martha angry, she might be shorter than me but she is vicious.

She huffed and pulled me inside and I let her drag me up the stairs to my room.

"Bed. Now missy, you have school in the morning." She said and I smilled at her pushiness.

Martha was like a mother to me, since my parents' death she had stepped up and acted as a mother figure. She kissed my cheek before she left the room while grumbling.

I smiled and walked over to my window that looked out over the street and saw the black van still sitting there and flipped them off before I closed the curtains.

I took off my clothes and dived under my comfortable covers and was asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.

***************************************************************************************

It felt as if I had just shut my eyes when my alarm clock started going off. I reached over and hit the snooze button and knew I had to get up, If I didn't Martha would come in and drag me out of my bed. Literally.

I sat up and threw my sheet off and stumbled my way into the bathroom and into the shower almost forgettting to take my clothes off first.

The heat from the steam helped to wake me up and I washed my hair and body before stepping out of the shower. I sat down in front of my vanity and put some lotion on my legs and brushed my wet hair back from my face. I decided to let it air dry.

Brushing my teeth I looked at my reflection and smirked, long, thick black hair, thick eyelashes surrounding pale grey eyes, high cheek bones and dimples. I'm not concieted, I just know I look good.

My eyes moved from my face and down to my left shoulder to the scar that was there. I reached over and rubbed it as I thought about the bullet the doctors had to pull out of it.

I got it the night my parents were killed, A rival had infiltrated our house and shot my parents point blank and almost killed me but I had gotten away with the help of an old family friend.

The same day I had left the hospital and walked into the man who had killed my parents house and killed him and his wife. I had immediately assumed control of my parents business the next day. From that day I wasn't the same.

I dressed in my usual attire which mainly consisted of skinny jeans and button up shirts and leather jackets. I pulled on a pair of low heeled ankle boots,grabbed my bag and went downstairs to find Martha in front of the stove making breakfast. Her blonde hair was sparkling in the sunlight and as she turned to put the eggs on my plate her brown eyes looked at me in amusement and I raised an eyebrow in question.

"It's nothing dear, just eat your food and head to school." She said and immediately went to do the dishes.

I ate my delicious eggs before I kissed Martha on her cheek and left.

I got behind the wheel of my black Ferarri and pulled out and drove out of the gate. As soon as I turned onto the street the van that had been out front all night immediately began following me.

Can't they find someone else to bother,there are worse people out there than me.

When I pulled up to the school the van couldn't go any further and had to park on the other side of the road. I smirked and shut off my car.

As soon as I stepped out of my car the staring and whispering began and I sighed. It's like this every single day. Whenever I come to school, the rumor mill starts. It's so annoying. I mean come on,I'm not that interesting.

I walked inside and almost immediately am almost ran over. The person slammed into my chest and I had to shift my feet as I held onto the person to keep us both from falling.

The smell of strawberries permeated the air and I breathed it in deeply as I felt the person in my arms shift.

I look down to find blue eyes staring up at me in suprise and I smile.

"Hello beautiful,what's your name?" I ask and watch as she blushes a beautiful shade of red.

"Avery." She says and tries to get out of my hold but I only hold her tighter. I could feel the stares of many people on us.

Normally I wouldn't really talk to anyone at school because all they are intersted in knowing about is if the rumors are true or highschool drama, which I've got no time for. The fact that I actually spoke first must be a shock to them.

"I'm sorry about running into you,I needed to get something from my car and wasn't really paying attention to where I was going,ummm you can let me go now." She says and I smirk and lean down towards her until our lips were only a few inches apart.

"What if I don't want to let you go?" I ask and I could feel her breath on my lips as I watch her eyes flutter shut.

"Avery?" A voice calls from behind her breaking the spell and her head spins arounds and lands on a guy.

His eyes shift from me to Avery and he looks at her with a confused face.

She blushes again and pushes away from me and this time I let her. She walks over to the guy and drags him out the door behind her.

"I'll see you later beautiful." I say and she looks over her shoulder and shoots me a glare and I chuckle before walking to my class, ignoring all the questioning looks.

"Avery huh?" I say as the bell rings to start class.
