Phoenix's Flight

The Beginning

Okay so this is my first time posting a story that I have wrote. I'm sorry if my grammar sucks, it's because I'm typing this whole thing on my iPod. Please write a comment, criticism is welcomed. Anywho please enjoy!

P. S. the photo above is how I picture Phoenix.

********************************************

"Were you even paying attention to a thing I was saying?" Alyse was her best friend, but sometimes she just didn't know when to keep her mouth shut. Alyse was one of this people that could turn any comment into a big deal and make them dirty at the same time. Her blonde friend was even shorter than her a 5' 1", but don't let her height fool you she's a firecracker.

"Hello? Is anyone in there? Yo, Phoenix what is going on in that brain of yours?"

Truth was Phoenix didn't have a clue what was going on in her mind, she was thinking about so much every single day. The sad part is she thinks about the same thing each day. what did she think about? Two things: (1) graduation (2) Where she was going to be sleeping and was she going to be able to eat tonight?

When Phoenix was twelve her parents died on Halloween night. The had been on their way to pick her up from a friends house after her and her friend had a fight. Her parents were struck and killed by a drunk driver just two minutes away. The sad part was the fight was her fault and it was so stupid she didn't even remember what it was about. Now Alyse was her best friend and now they never fight or try not to.

Now the red headed girl was put into a foster home. The women responsible for her, Christina, would find her a new home to live in almost every week. She would move in and in a couple of days the Foster parents would call Christina and tell her they could no longer care for Phoenix.

Phoenix knew why they would call her. It was, it is because she is different than everyone else. How? Even she doesn't know herself.

"Of course I was paying attention."

"Okay, then what was I talking about?"

Phoenix knew exactly what she was talking about. She repeats herself at least once a week.

"You were saying how should come over to your house for some awesome party."

"Exactly! Come on. you should totally come. Plus there's going to be a new kid there! who knows maybe you two will hit it off."

Phoenix really didn't want to go to Alyse's party in the first place, but now she really didn't want to go. Her friends goal was to get her a boyfriend by the end of Senior year. But what boy would want a girl who was in foster care and was different? On the other hand she knew she wouldn't be able to get out of it. She had skipped the last three parties. Her friend wouldn't let her miss a fourth.

"Fine! Fine, I'll come!"

What had Phoenix gotten herself into?
