Alison's Story

From The Start

Hi! My name is Alison but you can call me Ali for short and this is my story. It all started in middle school, it was spring - the flowers were blooming, color came back to life and not lying dead on the ground. I wasn't really the student who talked a lot but I still had friends. I got bullied a lot because people thought I was too skinny and that I needed to gain some weight, but really, they don't know what it's like to be me. My two best friends Logan Taylor (we're not related we just have the same last name) and Elizabeth McQueen. I loved them from the day we met - which was from birth. All three of ours moms grew up together and even had us at the same time but different birthdays if you get what I mean. We always went to the same school. Logan was the sporty kid in all the schools we went to and Elizabeth was always quite the nerd about school and cared if her grades were bad or good... me on the other hand didn't know where I stood at school. I was the quiet, insecure loner student that sits at the back of the class by themselves. I have a diary that helps me keep sane... I write in it whenever I feel sad or need to get the emotions that cloud up inside me and just let it all out on a piece of paper or two. Here is a example. 

Monday 6th May 2013,

I just got into a fight with Logan. We were fighting about if what materials we should use for our project we were assigned to. It was pretty intense and Liz (Elizabeth) filmed all of it. Logan suggested that we do a arm wrestle to see which materials we should use. I wanted to use paper or wool where as Logan wanted to use bricks or cotton. I really don't know why he wanted to use those.. but he did. He ended up winning, so we have to use bricks or cotton to make what ever we have to make. Logan always get competitive about everything and it gets really annoying sometimes.  It's currently 10.36 pm at night and I have to go school the next morning ugh... goodbye, 

- Alison Taylor  xoxo

Reading that just makes me cringe so much - I actually hate it. 

It's currently 9.30 pm right now and I just finished writing what has happened in my life so far. I'm currently 16 years old and finished writing whatever I wanted to put in my time capsule. I hear my phone ring and look over to see. Looking at the photo, I can tell that Liz (Elizabeth) is calling, I pick up the phone to see what's up. 

Alison: Hey Liz, what's up?
Elizabeth: So, I have some news.. and your prob not going to like it
Alison: Your making me worried... but what is it?
Elizabeth:  Do you remember Katie Argent and your not so nice bitchy cousin 'Zoe Mathews' 
Alison: Ugh of course I do.. but what about them?
Elizabeth: Well I JUST found out that they're both moving to our school...

As soon as I heard those words, I instantly face planted onto my bed and sighed in anger. I absolute  hated those girls... including my cousin... the bitch itself 'Zoe Mathews'. We may not have the same last name but we apparently look like one another. I just stared at the wall not knowing what else to do till I heard Liz's voice on speaker forgetting I was on a call with her. 

Elizabeth: HELLO??! Ali?? You there?
Alison: Yeah I'm here... Listen I have to go.. but I'll talk to you later??
Elizabeth: Yup sure

I hung up the phone and went onto Instagram. I saw updates on Zoe's and Katie's Instagram stories. They were telling people how they were going to be moving to Patterson High and reacting to people saying they were going to miss them. They were making me sick, they're actually so fake - I just can't. I decided to get off Insta and go write in my diary, writing about what has happened so far. 

Tuesday 8th May, 

So much shit has happened today, I recently just found out that my two middle school bullies (AND ONE OF THEM IS FUCKING RELATED TO ME) is moving to Patterson High. I feel like I'm going to die inside and out. I actually hate them so much - words can't even explain it... 

TBC

Love Alison xoxo

I finished writing in diary and put it away back onto my desk. Laying on my back on my bed just looking at ceiling, thinking to myself... maybe they've changed, maybe they might be nice now. I then instantly regretted myself for thinking that and saying those words in my head. I looked at time and saw it was 10.04 at night and decided to go to sleep. I locked my phone, turned my bedroom light off and dosed off to sleep peacefully and quietly. 

THE NEXT DAY

I heard my annoying alarm waking me the fuck up and tried my best to turn it the fuck off. After miserable attempts of trying to turn it off, I grabbed the closest heaviest thing to me and tried to hit it off. The closest thing to me was a hammer (don't ask me why I have a hammer... I just do). It actually worked for the first time. My eyes flew open and saw time was 7.30 in the fucking morning. I groaned and decided to finally get up even tho I JUST woke up. I tried walking over to my closet but failed as I collapsed to the ground because it was cold.. even tho it was spring it was still fucking cold. I groaned in pain and tried my best to make it all the way to the closet. 

After 10 minutes of attempting to go to my closet.. I finally got there, I stood up (not in pain anymore) and opened it. I picked the closest outfit to me (which was blue jeans and a black t-shirt that the words 'WOW' on the front of it. I also picked a jacket and a jumper to wear to school because it was so cold. I grabbed my phone and school bag and made my way downstairs to grab breakfast. I heard my phone vibrate and grabbed it from my pocket to see Logan calling. 

Alison: Hey
Logan: Do you need a ride for school today??
Alison: Yeah actually I do.. is Liz with you?
Logan: Nahh but I was hoping to pick you both up before school
Alison: Wow, Logan Taylor being nice for once - I said while chuckling. 
Logan: Shush, now would you like a ride?? - He said also chuckling
Alison: Yes I do, Ill ask Liz now and I'll get back to you
Logan: Okay cool, Ill see you soon bye
Alison: Bye

He ended the call and texted Liz to see if she needed a ride for school. She replied instantly saying yes and I put my phone down to continue making breakfast for myself and waited for Logan to arrive.
