"With the lights out, it's less dangerous,
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us"
My voice echoed above the soft hum of the razor against my skin, I could hardly see what i was doing from the fogged over mirror.
After shaving and drying myself off from the shower, I squeezed into my classic black skinny jeans and a black v-neck with a red checkered over shirt. I grabbed the precious silver necklace off the end of my bed and shoved it into my pocket.
I walked to the place where i usually meet Hayley when we walk to school together and saw that she was not at our tree.
But, in the distance, slowly walking down the hill, was Hayley's small butt in those dark denim shorts that she always wears. Even from here i can see that, as well as those ripped, worn out shorts, she is also wearing her favourite band tee. It had all the tour dates on the back of it, and the main logo on the front that spelt out NIRVANA and the yellow smiley face.
I was running stupidly with my black backpack on my back, down the hill to catch up with her, arms flailing and people staring.
"Hayley!" I yelled to her.
Instantly she turned, giving me the most confused look ever.
"Uh, hey," Hayley said flatly.
"Hey! You were at the party right?" I asked

"Hey! You were at the party right?" Casey asked me when he finally caught up to me.
I could tell him. I could tell him that it was me. I was the one who kissed him. I could confess my feelings for him. But he already has feelings for the girl at the party. That girl wasn't me.
I am just Hayley West, a relatively shy girl who has acrophobia, and loves her Sunday deep & meaningful with her father who she only gets to see for one week per month.
That girl at the party was a girl who was confident, and could sing her best with anyone.
"Hail, were you there or not?" Casey had snapped me back into reality with his soothing voice.
"Uh, yeah."
"Oh, I don't think I saw you. I'm sure you looked beautiful! " Casey said.
"Yeah, I saw you though. I really wish that we could have spent the night together," I lied.

"If I go crazy then will you still call me Superman? If I'm alive and we'll will you be there holding my hand?" Hayley sang under her breath as the sat down at her spot, opening her lunch box to reveal nothing but an apple and a sandwich.
She began to think about things, life. And she started to realise that she was in love with the boy she used to have bubble baths with when she was 5.
Then Katelyn, Beth, and Lauren come up to her and plop themselves down around her, gossiping about the new British girl that just arrived in their grade.
She was going to do it;
"I am in love Casey Porter."

I hope this is a good time frame between updates?? I think I will try to write on the weekends mostly, and any spare time during the week. School has just started back up and the home work and assignments will be rolling in soon so, like I said in my authors note, i know I'm not one of those people on here that have people staring at their screens waiting for an update , but I try to keep it regular...
BTW , I got like no response on my authors note... except for someone wanting to design a cover.
Sorry this is short ! I was struggling a bit with ideas and stuff so...
Guys, I really need some feedback on this... Seriously, don't hold back! COMMENT! ( please ? 😓😘😘)
