"Hey." My sister said as I walked down stairs.
"Hey, pancakes?" I asked and she nodded.
Where's my cute brother? One word.
Uni.
Me? Year 11. I live in Sydney, Australia. I used to live with my brother, but he saved up for Uni and left. So all I have left is my sister.
"You going to school?" She asked putting my pancakes and my coffee down.
"Do I have a choice?"
"Not really." I nodded once as if in saying, 'Yeah, see.'
I finished my pancakes and went to my room to get the only thing I'm actually capable of loving. My phone. It's an iPhone 5S given to me by the rich side of the family aka my aunt. It's not fair how they got it all, the money, the big family, the love, good education, and I live here in a fucking neighbourhood in a house that looks like it's going to fall down any second. But oh well, they gave me true love when they got me this phone, so I kinda don't hate them that much, well I do, but let's pretend I don't.
"You walking with me?" I asked Jane.
She was supposed to be in Uni as well but she failed year 9 so she's still in year 12. She's 18, I'm 17, my brother's 19. Yeah, guess mum and dad were active back then. I laughed at my own joke, even though it was gross to think about.
"Yeah." She said and we walked out, swinging our backpacks on one shoulder on the way.
She locked the door and threw me the keys, today I'd get home earlier, my classes ended at 1 p.m, hers ended at 4 p.m. I put one of my headphones in, so I could hear my sister if she spoke.
"Hey, can I ask you something?" She asked.
"You already did."
"Shut up. Why don't you like... Socialize with other people?" She asked and I narrowed my eyes.
"It's not worth it." I said, and put my other headphone in, clearly ending the conversation.
It was about a 20 minute walk to school. Jane left me to go with her group of friends as soon as we got to school and I walked in to my locker avoiding everyone's eyes.
"Hey, where's your sister?" Someone spoke to me and I banged my locker shut.
I'm. Not. In. A. Good. Mood.
"Do I know you?" I asked looking in her eyes.
"Well someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed today. Can't this piece of shit just be nice for once?" She thought.
"I'm your sister's best friend." She smiled. Jeez people are so fake now days.
"She's somewhere outside." I answered. The bell rang and I went to class.
History test, ew.
"Alright class, sit down."
Everyone sat down as Mrs. Jones started handing out the tests. I can't really look at anyone during the test, so I'll just have to cheat like in the old days. The guy sitting next to me was a dumb ass but the girl sitting in front of me, I looked over her shoulder and copied at least 5 answers, the rest I kinda knew. I sat at the very back of the room, in a corner. I got up and handed my test to Mrs. Jones. The bell would ring in 20 minutes.
"Mrs. Jones can I leave?" I asked.
"Sure. Who already handed in the test can go." She said, and everyone started to rush so they could leave early.
I took out my phone. I had a text from Ash.

Ash: Having fun without me?
Me: Lots.
Ash: Want me to come home this weekend?
Me: Yes, please. I am bored and I need someone to come play xbox with me at the mall in the game store.
Ash: You could come to Uni, visit me you know. My roommate has an xbox and you could come play.
Me: U sure?
Ash: Yeah, come on Autumn. I'll go pick you up, it's only a 2 hour drive :)
Me: Uhm, what about Jane?
Ash: She'll be fine on her own for 2 days.
Me: Fine.

I put my phone away and went to the cafeteria and got some lunch. My brother was the only person I spoke to on my phone and Jane, but mostly Ash cause he was away, I'm not popular, well I am. I'm the bad ass the girl that doesn't have friends, the scary girl, the one no one wants to be around, I'm not the freak, people are to scared of me to call me whatever they call me in their heads and think I don't know about.

Maths. I was in maths. Sometimes I don't really remember why I hate maths, but then I walk in the classroom and yup, I remember. It's so annoying and I understand nothing.
"So class, please turn to page 37 and do the exercises at the bottom." The teacher said and I turned the page to see if I understood.
What the actual fuck is this? Did we even talk about this?
My phone vibrated and I took it out. It was an iMessage.
