Just an Ordinary Girl

Chapter 1

the prologue was kinda chapter 1 but oh well :)

"your hair is gonna look beautiful!!"

"Millie, your more excited about this then me!"

" oh shush" she pouts

"come on, I wanna see it"

" close your eyes while I dry it"

I groan and shut them, she pulls the towel off my hair and turns on the hairdryer.

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

"aaaaaannnd......open your eyes!" Millie giggles

I open my eyes I stare in the mirror.

" wow.... it's...... bright" I say

"perks of having blonde hair" she sings

"I have another surprise" Millie says bouncing on her toes.

" I'm not closing my eyes again"

"please"

"no"

"Yes"

"no"

"pleeeeaaaase"

"fine"

"yay"

she runs out the room as I close my eyes. she runs back in the room and everything goes silent

"Millie?" I ask

"Yeah I'm here wait a sec"

"Ok"

I sit there patiently and wait for Millie to finish...... whatever she is doing.

Suddenly I feel a sharp prick in my ear.my eyes snap open

"ow, that hurt, what the hell did you do?"

I rush to the mirror.

I look at my ear and in my cartilage is a silver stud.

"shit, I'm already gonna be in shit for my hair!"

" at least you can hide it with your hair" Millie quietly giggles

"i gonna kill you one day Millie" i joke staring at my ear in the Mirror

"nah, you love me too much" she giggles as i get up

"whatever makes you sleep at night" i chuckle walking down the stairs

"i'm gonna go now Mils" i say hugging her

"ok see ya later alligator"

"in a while crocdile" i say opening the door.

i shut the door and walk home as slowely as possible.

Mum is not gonna like this!!!

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

I open the door as quietly as possible and peak round the corner.

Clear.

I tiptoe towards the stairs and the floorboards creaks, I wince at the sound

"Vicki?" I hear my mum call from the lounge

I run up the stairs and dive under the duvet with it covering my head.

my mum enters my room as I hold my breath

".... what are you doing under there?"

"um... looking for something?"

"don't be silly, what are you trying to hide?" mum says as I feel her hand on the duvet

"MUM N-"

the duvet is pulled off me aand dropped on the floor.

she gaspes as her face turns from surprise to anger

"VICTORIA MARIE JOHNSTONE, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO YOUR HAIR?!"

"um... dyed it..." i mumbled

"i should of guessed you would of been at Millie's, i told you not to talk to her! she is a bad example, look what she has done to you!"

"i did this out of my own free will, i agreed to do it, not Millie, me!"

her face turns bright red, then she takes a deep breath and calms herself.

"as i knew you wouldnt be looking for a Job, i found one for you"

"oh-no" i sigh

"i manage to get you a Job as a Cashier In Tesco"

"Tesco?!"

"yes, its a job isnt it and the pay is quite good, £7 an hour"

i frown at her

"you start on Monday"

"but thats tommorow" i moan

she leaves the room

i collapse oh my bed as my phone vibrates, i pick it up and see i have an email from Tesco, i open it.
