The Outside Doesn't Count (Ongoing)

Chapter 1

"Hurry we're going to be late!"I yelled as I was running down the block.
"Can you slow down a bit, I'm really tired, we'll make it on time."
"Why did you eat five pancakes if you knew we were going to be late, you're such an idiot Chess!"

We arrived just in time as the bell rang.

"See i told you we would make it in time Avrora."

"If by on time you mean late then we definitely arrived on time."

Today we start the fifth grade. Chess and I are so excited. Chess Foxworth is my best friend since kindergarten. He's a bit chubby, has light brown eyes and black hair.

*Break time*

"Ugh where is chess?" I thought

"I told you to give me your lunch money punk."

I saw Chess was on the ground and two 7th graders were over him behind the girls bathroom.

"I don't have lunch money I bring my lunch to school and even if I did why would I give you."

"What..your answering back your superiors....well I guess we'll have to teach you a lesson."

The two boys started to kick chess. I couldn't watch and if I interfered I would only get beat up too. I heard chess crying in pain. When the bullies finally left I ran to chess to check if he was alright.

This continued all throughout the first semester of fifth grade. Chess was severely bullied and there was nothing I could do. The bullying became so bad that he transferred schools in the beginning of the second semester.

That was the last time I ever saw Chess Foxworth.

After Chess transferred ,everything went downhill. My parents divorced and I ended up staying with my mom in my home town, Galenia in north america and my dad took my 8 year old brother, Cole to live with him in Italy. My mother usually works overseas because of her job so I basically live home alone and only get to see her like three times a month. So I learned to fend for myself.

Present day

It's been 5 years since those times. I am 16 years old. I've grown to be an independent girl. Ever since what happened to Chess I promised myself I would never be helpless again. I don't need friends because they bring you down and won't last forever. I have medium brown hair and light brown eyes and a very cute innocent look but don't let me fool you.

It's very easy to get what I want. All I have to do I shed a couple tears and whatever I want is mine. I don't depend on no one for anything. One time when i was 13 i was at the comic store and I wanted to buy my favorite manga but the cashier said I needed an ID card to buy it. I started to cry(fake obviously) and drew a lot of attention to us. He just sold me the manga and told me to get out...I mean...no one wants to be seen making a little girl cry, right?

Today I went out to the park because I wanted to buy tickets to my favorite singers concert, Nubly. I didn't even bother asking my mother's permission..I mean what she doesn't know won't hurt her.

I waited in line for an hour. Finally I was approaching the stall. The only thing that stood between me and Nubly was this one guy in front if me. Finally he finished and it was my turn. My heart fell to my feet as the vendor put a sold out sign on the booth. All the people behind me started to complain...but I was furious. That guy in front of me bought the last tickets! Well that won't stop me, I will get what I want.

I approached the guy and tapped him on the shoulder.

"Umm..yeah I think those tickets belong to me." I snapped

He looked me in the face with a confused expression. I repeated my words again and then he finally answered.

"Yeah..I don't think so😐."

I started to shed a few tears and the people near by started to stare at us. A woman approached me and asked what was wrong. I put my best helpless face on and started my act.

"I finally confessed my love to him and (sob) and he rejected me..he led me on and made me believe he loved me and rejected me for some other girl."

The woman started to give a glare at him and other people started to approach us. I took a peak at his face. I was surprised when I saw a sly smirk forming..but I kept up my act. I expected him to give up and hand me the tickets to stop making a scene...but what happened next.... Was totally unexpected.
