Love's a Mess

It's Just the Begining

Taylor

"Taylor get up!! Your going to be late!" I heard my mom call from the kitchen. I got out of bed and slowly started to get dressed in my usual sweater, jeans and beanie. I then leave my room knowing it's going to be a crappy day.

"Mom do I really have to go to school today?"

"Yes you do now get your stuff together and eat."

I quickly start to gather my stuff not wanting to upset my mom. I grab an apple and run to the door.

"Have a great day, and don't let those girls get to you!"

"I won't mom, I love you! Bye."

"Bye sweetheart."

I grab my house key then quickly exit the small house before she can say anything else. I hate how protective she is sometimes with her not letting me hangout with friends after school. (Not that I don't sneak out anyways). I get to the bus stop as the bus is pulling up. I sprit and find that there's a seat in the back. I sit there although nowing that it might come back to bite me. I'm the only one back until.. Trouble.

"What's she doing here?" Speak of the devil.

Great just what I need on a beautiful day like this. I put my head phones on hoping that it'll block out the noise but it's to no prevail.

"It looks like the loser found her way to the back of the bus I guess it took her long enough, and that sweater looks like something I'd buy my dog!"

I put my bag up to make sure that Alice can sit next to me and not Britney. She's always getting on my nerves and trying to push my buttons every which way by showing off her boy toy. Brad which is were I made the mistake of telling her that I liked him causing her to mysteriously like him as we'll. Which thus created the "perfect couple" if only he knew what was really going on behind his back.

"Hey Taylor" says Alice.

"Oh hey Alice, how've you been?" I say as I move my bag so that she can sit next to me which she does.

"I've been great actually! I got to go to Italy over the weekend! It was beautiful there." She says.

"That's great it sounds like you had fun. I'm glad someone did." I say as

that's all we say the whole rest of the way to school. Once at school we soon broke apart from having different advisories. Thank gosh for Violet. I don't think I could live having to deal with "The Queen B" by myself today. It's funny how a sweet innocent girl can be changed into an evil wench in one middle school year.

"Yo, Taylor!" Says Violet.

"Hey Vi, how's your weekend been?" I say.

"The norm anime, music and fangirling."she says.

"Sounds great." I say as the bell rings. I leave the room and make my way to first period reading the book in my hands. I glance up trying not to run into anyone but it's already to late. I automatically run into someone tall and nearly fall over but manage to stay up.

"Watch where your going" I say rubbing my head which had hit the person in the chest. I look up to see who it is and of course, it had to be him.

"Um if I'm not mistaken you ran into me." says Brad. He bends over and hands me my book. I retrieve it from him then quickly walk/run away before I get humiliated again.. Why him out of everyone in this crappy school?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I get home and open my front door noticing that my mom isn't home yet. I close the door and get on the computer opening up Facebook. The only person online is Vi so I decide to talk to her.

"Hey Vi."

"Hai Taylor! OMG guess what??"

"What?"

"Keith got snake bites!!! He is soooooooo gorgeous!! Do you think he has a girlfriend? :("

"For the last time..... NO!! His mom is friends with mine and he told me that he doesn't have one! Now stop asking!"

"Okay, okay I'll stop asking."

"Great.. Oh and... Don't freak out but I totally caught Keith starring at you during lunch today!"

" WHAT REALLY?!?!? Omg!! WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME THEN!?!?"

"Look at your last text and tell me why I didn't tell you right then.."

"Oh... Okay you have a point."

"See!" I then hear my mom start to pull into the driveway."Crap my moms coming home I gtg.. Say hi to Keith for me!"

"Once I muster up the courage I will! Bai!"

"Bye!" I log out, close the tab and then shut down the computer right as my mom is opening the door so I grab an apple and try to act natural. She comes through the door and gives me a look that says what did you do? I ignore the look and take a bite of my apple as she turns and heads toward her room without saying a word (meaning that she has a head ache). I walk into the living room and turn on the news and do homework.

By the time my mother comes out of her room I'm about to go to bed. I look at her worryingly and she gives me a slight nod meaning that shes okay. It's weird that my dad hasn't come home yet but he sometimes goes to the bar after work and drinks till he can barely drive. I head to my room and check my Facebook and there's a notification on it. It's from brads brother who's normally just being a jerk wad so I ignore it and close out the tab and lay down on my bed thanking that tonight won't end in yelling and fighting. I close my eyes and get lost in thought to what will become of tomorrow and eventually drift off to sleep.
