Before It Went Bad.

I wake up with the sun in my eyes. I should be at school, but, I'm still in bed. My parents neglected me, so they don't care. They only care about my perfect sisters and perfect brother.

But that's okay.

I get up and pick up my phone.

Aidan: Where are you?

He's like an older brother to me.

Jess: I'm fine, just slept in.

I start humming as I walk into the bathroom, and brush through my dark black hair. I stare into my green eyes.

Confidence is non-existent in my mind. The only thing I like is my eyes. Green.

My bangs get in the way of my eyes a lot, but I, try and brush them to the side, but they always go back down.

I don't know where I got my green eyes from. I think my mom cheated on my dad. But it's none of my business.

My nose is small, and my eyes are a pretty normal shape. I have long eyelashes, which is lucky.

My hair is straight, and my skin is not white, but not Mexican. It's a nice tan, but not too dark.

I push up my glasses. Big black ones. I like them.

I'm not nerdy, I just can't see.

I pick up my bag and walk out the door. My car is a small, grey car. I start driving, drowning out the world with music.

Before I know it, I'm at school, and I get out of my car. I've missed first period.

I see Aidan, and I run up to him. "Hey," I say.

He smiles, "Hey! Missed you!"
I smile at that. He's, like, my only friend.

We walk to second together, and everything is mostly a blur.

Except when I'm with him.

I wait for his car. He's bringing us taco's like he always does.

I take out my headphones, getting anxious.

He's late.

I close my eyes for a few seconds, and I hear gunshots. I pray it's my imagination.
