' Ariana, I will finally tell you something I've been waiting to tell you for the past sixteen years. It might sound like your worst nightmare or your best dream. Come here. ' Ariana's dad told her in a nervous tone as he motioned he to sit down bes...
Finally, I was done with school. I packed my bag and went up to my locker, completely tired of listening to those stupid lectures. And I felt like shouting my lungs out because of my headache, it was literally killing me.
I quickly fixed everything and was about to pick up my bag from the floor when I heard the voice I least liked in the entire universe.
' Oh, hi Ariana! ' Elle Vonnet a.k.a, the girl with a ego to high and IQ too low greeted me like I was her bff.
' Hi Elle. ' I replied gloomily. I was in no mood for jokes or her stupid talks.
' Excuse me??? I, Elle Vonnet literally greeted you and that's how you respond. You should be happy I even opened my mouth to speak to you. ' she said as if she is the most important in this school.
' You do you think you are? The queen of England? If you do, then sorry I couldn't recognise you. I thought the Queen was a lot prettier. ' I replied giving her a sarcastic but sympathetic look.
' Whatever, at least I'm not like you. I anyways get a lot more guys than you rude-ass. '
' Um - of course you get more guys. Don't you know that low prices attract the most customers? Also, I'm not that rude, I just say what all the other people here are thinking. ' I said and was about to leave when I suddenly stopped.
' Seriously? This is what you girls talk about? And why are you fighting anyways? God, there's no peace anywhere. ' Harry suddenly said looking at us.
He was leaning against his locker with his bag hanging loosely from his shoulders.
' Um - no? This is not what we girls talk about. And why are you entering between us anyways? ' I asked.
' Don't you dare talk with my baby like that you slut. Don't think I don't know anything. ' Elle looked at me with a disgusted face.
' What??? He is your baby? From when? Harry, I thought you had better taste. Also how dare you call me a slut when you are one yourself? And think you know me? Honey you have no idea. ' I replied sassily.
She reached my limits. How dare she call me something like that without even knowing me? And how the hell am I a slut?
'I am the one who didn't date half the number of guys she did, and I am also a slut. Jesus, when God made you he was just giving us an example of what a brainless creature looks like. ' I added.
' Firstly, we are not dating so I am not her baby or whatever. Secondly, what makes you think Elle is a slut? ' Harry asked looking at me.
' And you too Harry? Wow! I thought you were better than those guys, and seems like you decided to prove me wrong. Whatever, go on, side with her. Your " girlfriend ". God, disgusting! ' I said this time anger and frustration clear on my face.
All this time i was calm and tried to sort things out. But now, even Harry, even he sided with her. He could also ask her about me, but no. Elle.
I was about to storm out of the building when had to stop, again. I remembered Harry telling me that I mistakenly took his keyring home with me that day when we had to stay after school. I forgot to bring it every day but today I brought it.
It was in my small black bag.

' Oh, and your keyring right? I brought it. Here you go.'
In anger, instead of only the key ring, I threw the whole bag itself. I intended to throw it at his locker but somehow it changed directions in the middle of the air and hit him right in his ' area ' very hard. I was already leaving when I heard him scream in pain.
I stormed out of the school building, laughing crazily with my school bag hanging from one shoulder.
I was still pissed off. I usually never let such stuff get to my head since I've been dealing with these types of girls all my life. But, somehow, today pissed me off.
I hoped on my bicycle, checked my black wristwatch and was off. This Elle and Harry pissing me off seemed to have at least one positive thing and that is the fact that I was paddling twenty times faster than usual and reached home quicker.
Finally home. My head still felt like it would crack any moment and this last minute fight surely didn't help.
I jumped on my bed and didn't realise that I fell asleep without eating or changing.
Third person's POV
The moon was disappearing and reappearing high on the sky that day when Ariana was sitting in front of her window, looking down at the city.
She couldn't sleep, as usual. But mostly, her heart, for some reason felt heavy. It was like someone was pressing a huge rock against it.
Ariana, moved her eyes back at her light blue room. A messy bed, a messy table, a messy floor, the only thing not messy was her closet.
Without even any warning, a small drop of tear slowly ran down her cheeks.
' Hey, sis, can I come in? ' she heard her brother knock on the door suddenly. He had a habit of staying up till late but it was very unusual for him to knock her at midnight.
Ariana quickly rubbed her cheeks dry, and went to let the guy in.
' Woah, look who's here in the middle of the night. What brings you here? ' she asked in confusion.
' I couldn't sleep, and felt that you also couldn't sleep either. So, I came here to talk instead. '
They both slowly went and sat down where Ariana was sitting before — in front of the window.
' Do you ever wish that we could spend some more time with mom and dad? ' Ariana asked shifting her eyes from the window to him.
' Um - yea. I do. But they're too busy, we can't really do anything about it. ' Drew said with his eyes fixed on the view outside.
' I sometimes miss them so much you know. '
' Listen sis, they are in Australia now right? I'm sure they miss us too. Besides we got each other right? Look at me, before I used to miss them a lot too. But over time I realized that missing them would do nothing but upset me. ' Drew finally looked at Ariana.
' I got you. But, they just have to spend so much time away because of their works. It's just, I don't know. '
' Well, it is how it is. See? I know you so well, I knew you will be awake and sad about something. Don't be too sad, only be a little sad 'cause, no mom and dad always meant that I'm gonna tease and disturb you a lot more. ' he said smiling innocently.
Ariana always liked it when her brother smiled as he smiled very little.
' Blah blah. I'm gonna fight back this time, so watch out big brother. ' she replied laughing.
They chatted for a while in the silence of the night.
' You should go to sleep. You have school tomorrow and we all know who can't wake up in the morning. ' he said before getting up to leave.
' Goodnight then, hopefully god will have mercy and spray some sleep on me tonight. ' Ariana told and he gave her a reassuring smile before leaving.
Ariana always loved the nights. They were always a time she felt peaceful, when the whole city was sleeping.
She got up, looked around her room once more and lazily fell on the bed.
With the sound of her clock ticking, she soon drifted off to sleep.
