//This is my first actual story in quite a while, so if it is shitty, I am so sorry, haha! It based off of true events! (^_^')//

     The clouds were heavy and a deep silvery grey colour as an indigo haired girl peered out through the bus window. She sighed as a tuft of hair fell into view, attempting to use said puff to blow the strands out of her face. It stayed there in spite of her attempts to remove it. Finally, she decides to tuck the strands behind her ear.

She rests her head onto the window again and resumes looking outside. The clouds were a perfect replica of her inner feelings, long and sad fluffy strands floating along the lonesome atmosphere; the atmosphere softly caressing the clouds as her coat caressed her ivory flesh.

    Twenty minutes of sightseeing passed before she approached her bus stop. As she was getting off of the bus, the girl bumped into a taller male, knocking his phone out of his hand. Immediately she began to blush and profusely apologize. She got to her knees and scrambled to grab his phone for him, picking his phone up and handing it to him after she found it. 

     "Oh shit! I am so sorry!!" She said as she handed him his phone and realized that the top right corner had cracked, leaving a thin spiderweb of a crack going to the opposite edge of the phone. He looked at her with a soft comforting smile and placed a hand on her shoulder. She quickly tucked a tuft of her hair behind her ear as she looked up into his hazel eyes.

     "It's alright." He softly chuckled. "You might want to hurry and get off of the bus though, the bus driver looks pretty pissed." She nodded and smiled a little before she waved goodbye and hopped off of the bus.

Her heart was practically in her throat as she got off of the bus, she had realized that she had formed a crush in a matter of seconds on some  guy she knew she'd probably never see again.

The next day went by just the same as the day before and she was just as gloomy. As she got to her bus stop, she grabbed her backpack and walked to the front door of the bus. While getting off of the bus, she saw the same guy from yesterday, running to the bus stop.

"There's a man running to the bus stop!" She said, raising her voice to ensure that the driver heard her. He grunted in response as she got off the bus. She waved and he waved back, smiling her way as he reached the bus and panted heavily.

"Thank you so much." He panted, as he got onto the bus, a few drops of sweat sliding down the side of his face. There was something about him, but she couldn't put her finger on it. Something that drove her towards him like a moth towards light. Little did she know, she wouldn't see him for almost 3 years after this encounter.

The rest of the year went by fairly quickly, she had gotten herself into a little trouble here and there. She had vandalized the school multiple times and got into smoking weed throughout the school year, but managed to pass her freshman year.

The next year went by similarly, except she had met a boy and they had gotten into a relationship they were pretty happy together. She had went to her first house party that year and tried cocaine and alcohol and got addicted to cocaine, but would do it sneakily so her boyfriend wouldn't know.

Her junior year went by just like her sophomore year, house parties, alcohol and drugs, but she ended up overdosing and being put in the hospital for a few months. The hospital was just enough of a shock to get her to stop doing cocaine, but she continued her use of marijuana and alcohol a month after getting out of the hospital.

Her senior year went by the fastest, she was completely sober from drugs, occasionally drinking alcohol but mostly focusing on her school career. Her boyfriend broke up with her after she found out that her boyfriend cheated on her twice.

She graduated in May and then she went back to smoking pot and began to drink heavy again, got put into the hospital for severe alcohol poisoning and then cold turkeyed her alcoholism right after getting out of the hospital.
