Chapter 1 - There might be something outside your window
"Ella, get up. We've got school." Frank, my brother, smiles in my face.
"What the fuck are you doing in my room?" I groan. "Go away." I rub my eyes and blink a few times.
"Ooooh, sorry!" Frank mocks. He stands up, stopping only to mess up my hair. Groaning again, I get up and push him away.
"Maybe you should get dressed, grumpy." He smirks one last time and leaves the room. After a few seconds of standing there, I pick out some clothes and get dressed. I comb my hair quickly, then brush my teeth. When I run down the stairs, Frank is already waiting at the door.
"Let's go!" He says, looking at his watch.
"Since when did you care so much about getting to school on time?" I reply.
"It's picture day. Don't wanna miss that." He grins and tosses me my bag.
"Honestly, you are the only person I know that actually likes school picture day." I roll my eyes. He opens the door, and I follow him out of it.
We walk in silence for a while, our footsteps loud against the concrete sidewalk. Eventually, Frank looks over to me.
"Uh, Mikey got out of the hospital today."
"Good. Is he coming to school?"
"Gerard says he is." He shrugs.
"Okay." I smile. Mikey had to go to hospital two days ago, because he got a concussion. They were practising as usual, when one of our dogs, Daisy, ran into the garage and got Mikey tangled in some wires. Then he fell and hit his head on an amp.
We arrive at the school, and we walk into the desolated hallways. Frank smirks.
"Watch this." He runs up to a locker, and leans his ear to it.
"Frank, what are you-"
"Shh!" He snaps, and then, the locker opens. He steps inside it, laughing.
"Frank! Don't do that!"
"It's funny! Lock the door!" I sigh, but I know he won't give up. So I close the locker door, and lock it, careful not to hurt Frank.
"You okay in there?" I hear a mumbled reply, so I step back just as the bell rings. Jessica Fisher, the blonde haired and stupid cheerleader saunters up to the locker. I stifle a laugh.
"What are you staring at, ugly?" She turns her nose up and looks back at her locker. 67, 48, 23, she dials in. I'll remember that. When she pulls the door open, Frank bursts out, shouting. I let all of my laughter out. Jessica jumps back, screaming.
"WHAT THE HELL?" She shouts. "You absolute dick!" She turns on her heel and runs off.
At that moment, Ray, Gerard, and Mikey walk up to us, all three laughing.
"That'll teach her." Mikey says, still laughing silently.
"How're you feeling, Mikey?" I ask.
"Better, thanks. A little tired though." He replies.
"He almost walked into a door today." Gerard grins, looking at me. My stomach flips.
"It wasn't my fault!" Mikey says. "Ray closed it right as I was going to walk through!" I look at Ray, who smirks.
"Well well well, if it isn't Ella Iero. Fancy seeing you here." A familar voice says. Tom Chapman, a jock, stands in front of me.
"Leave me alone Tom." I say. He pushes me against a locker and pins me there.
"Yeah, you're just annoyed because she broke up with you." Ray says. Tom turns to him, still holding me against the locker.
"I am not annoyed." He says angrily. He turns back to me. "But you shouldn't have broken up with me Ella. Fancy giving it another try?" He leans so close that I can feel his hot breath on my neck.
"I said leave me alone." I grit my teeth. Tom doesn't budge. Gerard grabs his shoulder and pulls him back.
"Get away from her." He says, and without hesitating, knees Tom in the crotch. Tom doubles over.
"Shit! You'll fucking pay for that!" Tom groans. Luckily, another bell rings. Saved by the bell.
"Thanks, Gee." I smile as we walk to history together.
"It's okay. That guy is an idiot." He grins. "I don't know why you dated him in the first place."
"I don't know why I did either."
"You don't deserve to be treated like that. You deserve more." I look down, not wanting to look at his perfect features. It will just make me fall in love with him even more.
"So do you. You deserve a girlfriend, someone to love you, anything..." I reply.
"Maybe I'll find someone one day. Until then, I'm happy." He smiles and walks into class, leaving me smiling like an idiot.
