Mermaid Tail

Chapter 2 : Speak of the Devil

August 10th, Friday Night. Hailey and I just finished watching a movie and we were about to get takeout at Mcdonald's and head home. It was 7:45 PM and the streets were filled with cars and all sorts and it was traffic, we took a bus and went home. We were already outside our apartment as Hailey went through her bag to get the keys.

"Oh crap! I forgot my keys inside the apartment." Hailey said with an exhausted and sore voice.

I noticed she had too many sodas to drink at the movies and she's been shouting a lot, she was tired and it was not healthy for her voice.

"Here." I handed her the takeout Mcdonald's bag and I took out my keys.

As we got in, we put down our bags and took our shoes and placed it down. We went to our rooms and changed quickly.

Then I took out our takeout food. I got Chicken and Spaghetti with large fries and medium coke. Hailey got Spicy Chicken with large fries and a cheeseburger.

We were hungry because we got stuck in traffic for a half an hour and most of all we were tired at that time.

As Hailey finished changing her clothes, she was hydrated and I just realized she didn't drink any water for a whole day instead she drank lots of sodas and a whole lot of screaming and fangirling over the movie.

"Drink some water Hailey, you look wasted." I gave her a glass of water.

She drank lots of water, Then after she chuckled.

"What's so funny?" I looked at her.

"I should be the one taking care of you after all the drama that you went through, I kinda feel bad of not taking care of you." She said with concern and crossed her arms.

"I really appreciate your concern for me Hailey but right now, I'm the big sister here taking care of you."
I said sarcastically.

"Now come on here and eat some food." I said while preparing the food.

Then a headache attacked me, I thought I was going to faint, my head was not feeling well. I placed my two fingers between my eyes to make me feel better, then the headache disappeared. It was strange, I don't really get headaches too often.

"You okay?" Hailey patted me in the back.

"Yeah, I'm good. Come on, let's eat." I said.

We ate our Mcdonald's food and enjoy most of our time chatting, we had fun. We spend most of our weekend at the apartment.

~ Time Skip ~

We were getting ready for school.

It was School Monday. I woke up with the alarm going off and went to the bathroom and did my skin routine, I wore a floral white dress with a denim jacket and a brown high heels, put makeup on and I curled my hair today. Just then I went downstairs and found Hailey already eating breakfast and wearing a white off-shoulder shirt and a black pants with her black high heels on. I also grabbed breakfast and sat down with her.

"You're up early today?" I said.

"Yeah, I don't wanna be late for school." Hailey said while eating and munching her bowl of cereal.

"Wow. Never thought the high and mighty Hailey Jones would be this excited for school. What have you done to my best friend!?" I said teasing her and smirked.

"Hahahaha very funny." Hailey was annoyed.

"Everyone on this planet doesn't want to go to school, let alone teenagers got to learn how to suffer in hell." I argued.

"Correction. Not everyone on this planet doesn't want to go to school and yet many people wants to go to school and learn useful information to feed their big brains and will have a brighter future." Hailey fired back at me.

I laughed and didn't say anything.

We finished breakfast and got upstairs to prep ourselves and got our bags and head to school.

When we got to our school, many kids were very energetic and happy this morning. Cars being parked outside, kids arriving in bicycles and skateboards. It was going to be a wild year like any other.
Hailey and I went to our lockers and of course, we were beside each other.

"I should have drink coffee." I was tired and didn't have any energy at this morning.

"Yeah. Hey Emma, do you wanna come with me to the cafeteria at lunch later?" Hailey questioned.

"Okay, Today is the day they made their Triple Chocolate Cake." I said excitingly.

"Yeah I know you love their food so much." Hailey said teasingly.

I laughed and then Hailey asks the one question that I don't want to answer.

"Sooo, what about the she-devil?" Hailey said.

"You mean Vera Smith?" I said.

Hailey nodded.

"I'll just avoid Vera and her minions to not cause any trouble in the way." I said.

"Well, Speak of the Devil." Hailey pointing her eyes out to Vera Smith. She was catwalking in the middle of the hallway strutessly like a diva with her minions, Katie Richards and Patricia Williams.

Vera Smith the Villian is a rich, a mean girl and the queenbee of this school, a total backstabber, meanest bitch, the devil herself, you name it. And whats worse is that her mother is the principal of this school. She can also put us into any trouble, has the power to control us or expel us with her mother's wish. Every kind of school has its own Regina George, ours was Regina George 2.0, she got the nickname of "Vera the Villian" because she is always the Villian of our stories and she turned my life into a living nightmare every single day.

Everytime we talked about her or even called her real name, we were disgusted and drenched with embarassment.

"Hey losers!" Vera said while approaching us.

"Hope you have a bad day bitch." Hailey said it straight to her face. Although, I could give some points to Hailey because she was one of the most bravest and confident person I've ever know. And I panicked knowing that maybe my best friend might be expelled.

"Is that any way to greet your Student Body President?" She said it with a elegant voice.

I probably forgot to mention that she's the Student Body President of West Lions Academy who won the elections last year, 1st in everything (the smartest and popular girl), and also...

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone!! Hope you have a great holiday!
