"VICKI, VICKI, VICTORIA!!"
"What mum?" I shout down the stairs
"are you still in bed?"
"What do you think?"I reply sarcastically
"don't get sassy with me young lady"
"What do you want mum?" I sigh
"when are you gonna get a job? your 19!"
" mum no-one wants to hire a girl who failed collage" I moan
"No, you just haven't been trying"
I don't reply, I hear her footsteps coming up the stairs and she burst into my room.
"get up"
I groan and roll out of bed as my mum leaves my room.
I pull on some jeans and a black vest top, I shrug on a grey hoodie and grab my phone as I leave the room. I trudge down the stairs and stand in the Kitchen waiting for mum to tell me what she got me up for.
" go on then" she urges
"go on what?"
" go and find a job, go go"
I groan as i put on and lace up my combat boots.
I leave the house and walk down the street.
This village hasn't got many jobs available, it has
3 pubs
a post office
a shop
a petrol station
and a doctor's surgery.
I sigh as I call my best friend
"hello?" she chirps
" Hey Millie it's Vicki"
" Hey girl, how yay doing" she jokes
" I'm fine, mums kicked me out to find a job, can I come over for a bit?"
" sure, text me when you get here" she says
"ok, byee"
" bye"
I hang up and place my phone. back in my pocket.
I walk down the street towards Millie's house.
Millie lives in the same village as me, but at the other end, so it takes like 10 minutes to get there.
I walk up her drive way and Knock on her door.
Millie lives with her Boyfriend "Leo" in a small 2 bedroom terrace house.
she answers the door and pulls me inside. Leo's at work at the moment
" you still havnt dyed your hair" she frowns
" you know my mum will kill me"
" and I know that you want to dye your hair"
I sigh knowing it's the truth.
You see Millie is Like what I want to be,
She has Baby pink waist length hair, green eyes but she wears purple contacts, a tattoo sleeve, and lots of other tattoos scattered over her other arm and body, an eyebrow piercing, a nose stud and both her ears are stretched.
But me, I have a Mother, who doesn't like tattoos, piercings or Millie for that matter.I have waist length blonde hair, blue eyes, no contacts, pale clear skin, and one piercing in each ear.
" come on we will do it today" she says dragging me up the stairs.
"Millieeee" I moan.
" come on" she chirps
she pulls me into the bathroom and opens a cupboard. she placed various boxes on the countertop.
" ok I have, red, purple, pink, black, blue, brown or green"
"why do you have green?" I laugh
" I dunno, just say a colour" she pouts.
" uhh..... blue" I shrugged
" Yay" she says jumping in to action.
she opens the box and stands behind me.
she puts a cold substance in my hair
"Millie what are you doing?"
" don't worry just relax this is what you do"
I stop talking and wait
*****************
" there we go, now we have to wait for half an hour" Millie smiles
" then what do we do?" I ask
" we wash the foam off silly, and then your hair will look beautifully blue" she literally squeals.
she places a shower cap over my hair
"Lets go watch some Pokemon!" Millie exclaims
"nerd" I tease as we walk to the sitting room
" am not" she pours
" are to" I say collapsing on her sofa
"am not"
"are to"
"am not"
"am not"
"are t- damn it"
" gotcha" I laugh
****************
after watch an episode of Pokemon, we go to wash my hair, I hope to god it hasn't gone green.
"close your eyes, it makes it a surprise for you" Millie says as she takes off the shower cap.
" I know what colour it's going to be"
" just do it anyway"
I roll my eyes and lean over the bath closing my eyes.
I hear her sequel in delight and internally giggle.
she turns on the shower attachment and hoses down my hair till all the foam is gone (I hope).
she wraps my hair in a towel and says I can open my eyes
" I can't see my hair"
" I know, you will have to wait till it's dry" she smiles
I groan.
" wanna watch more Pokemon?"
" of course"
