Problems, Problems, and Look! More Problems

"Why the hell would you get drunk Wendy?!?"

"Because unlike you I have fun." She slurs.

"Well excuse me." We drag her into the house and a light turns on.

"Mom!"

"I hope you had fun. That's the only fun you'll have until you're 200."

"Mom nothing happened."

"You could've gotten hurt."

"But I was having fun! You know what you're the same as dad. Always trying to make me be the savior that I'm supposed to be. I can make mistakes and still be able to be myself. Until you and Dad understand that I want to actually live it up like a teenager, I'm not talking to you."

"Elizabeth-" I storm upstairs. I blush out my hair and I put it up in a little ponytail. It's cute actually. I pull my dress off and I change into my pajamas, a pair of blue shorts with a black Nirvana t-shirt that covers them. I pull the blue covers up on me and I fall asleep, thinking about the fun I had at the party.

The next morning, I pull myself out of bed and into the kitchen. Mom and Dad are down there.

"Breakfast is ready." I pour myself a cup of coffee and I grab my plate. I situate in the living room, pulling a blanket up on me and grabbing the remote. I flip through channels until I find The Bachelorette. Taking small bites of the waffle, I scoff.

"Come on Scarlett, you can do so much better then James." I finish breakfast and I go into the kitchen. I put my plate in the sink then I go upstairs and shower. I brush my teeth really fast, then I change into a black dress with my leather jacket over the top. I pull my keys out of my clutch and I put them into my purse.

"Where the hell do you think you're going?" Quinn and I head to the car.

"Elizabeth!" I ignore all of their words and I put the key in the ignition and drive away.

"So where are we going?"

"To either the mall or the movies."

"We went to the mall yesterday. Let's go to the movies."

"What should we see?"

"Ooh we should see that new scary movie Oculus."

"No way it's gonna be lame."

"Then we should go see the special viewing of Breakfast at Tiffany's."

"That sounds fun."

"Okay. I'll get tickets for the showing at 12:00 which is in 10 minutes."

"Got it." I pull into the movie theatre and we get our tickets then some popcorn and drinks.

"I feel like I have lost myself. And I don't know where I'm hiding." By this point Quinn and I are balling our eyes out. We head to the bathroom right after the movie.

"That was the most intense emotional movie I've ever seen."

"I know right? I'm so glad I wore waterproof makeup." I reply. We head over to the car.

"Wanna go get something to eat?"

"Sure. Let's go to the mall. We can split a chili cheese fry."

"Nah, I'm in the mood for sushi. We can go to that really good sushi place in the mall."

"It's a deal." I get to the mall and I apply for a job at Forever 21.

"Thanks." They nod and we head down to the food court.
