Rebel Next Door ~ Crawford Collins

Best Friend

After school I walked out to Seth's car with Brooke beside me. She lived in the neighborhood, so she is gonna ride home with us. "How many friends did you make today?" Brooke asked as we waited my the car. "Just you." I said. "Really? It okay. I mean people in this school are different." Brooke said smiling. "What do you mean different?" I asked looking at her. "Don't get mad when I say this, but you dress like a preppy girl, but your shy. People here are Rebels and don't care." She said. Maybe she was right. I really want to fit in here.. "Brooke." I said. "Faith?" She asked. "Your not like everyone else around here, maybe the don't care part." I laughed. "I used to be just like you." She said laughing. "What happened?" I asked looking confused. "My mom got in a car accident, dad started drinking, drove to Texas and never came back for me." She said frowning. "Who do you live with now?" I asked. "My aunt Julie, she is a hair dresser. She did my hair." She said smiling pointing to her hair. It was bright blue and so long! "Here comes Seth!" She said. "Finally." I said. "Faith!" Seth said tossing me the keys. "Serious!?" I asked. " if you don't drive this baby I will!" Brooke said looking at me with wide eyes.
