Skylar's POV

" -uck do you keep leaving your shit in my room!?"

Beep Beep Beep

" It's wayyy to early for me to be dealing with your bullshit"

Beep Beep Beep

"You wouldn't be dealing with my bullshit in the first place if you just cleaned up after yourself dumbass"

Beep Bee-

I slowly take my hand off the top of my alarm and turn around fully to glare heatedly at my door as their voices get louder.

"You're just taking out your morning rage on me so why don't you make an appointment with doctor Jennings to figure the best way to take out that pole you have rammed up so far up you-"

I slowly unwrap myself from my sheets as Caleb speaks and open my door enough for both of them to notice me. I take in their clenched fists and threatening postures and nearly roll my eyes at their dramatic display.

I run a hand through my tangled hair before placing it on my hip and meeting both of their eyes.

"You're both arguing over something so irrelevant so early in the morning and right in front of my room too. I'd say you both have a death wish..." I narrow my eyes at them as I finish talking, noticing the way they both take a small step back.

Dustin slowly raises both of his hands up in forced surrender before muttering a small 'sorry' before turning and stomping down the hallway towards his room.

I turned to look at Caleb, whom was already quickly disappearing down the stairs leading to the kitchen.

I let out a deep exaggerated breath before stepping back into my room and closing the door behind me.

I make my way over to my bathroom to shower, coming out only after I was done drying myself before walking back into my room with a towel securely wrapped around my slightly shivering form.

I look through my closet and pull out a black and white checkered crop top sweater, quickly putting it on before walking over to my drawers to take out a pair of my white ripped skinny jeans. I scan through the different types of shoes lined up on my closet floor before finally choosing my black puma sneakers.

I run my brush through my straight raven black hair before spraying a pinch of perfume on the sides of my neck and wrists. I grab my phone and my backpack before making my way out of my room and down the stairs leading to the living room.

I ignore both of my brothers as I make my way to the kitchen. I quickly eat the breakfast our dad made us a few minutes ago before heading off to work. I put my dish in the sink just as Dustin walks in with a coughing Caleb right behind him. I give them both a kiss on the cheek before heading out of our house and making my way over to the high school me and Caleb attend a few blocks away from our home.

I enjoy the soft breeze of the wind and the sweet aroma of baked cakes and cookies from the small coffee shop I pass by everyday. Before I know it I'm standing in front of the school. I squeeze myself through the crowd at the entrance before heading over to my locker.

A grin slowly slips onto my face when I catch sight of my three best friends, Nina, Sam, and Mark, all standing near my locker seeming to be in deep conversation.

I slowly make my way over to them, pushing through the crowd as Nina takes notice of me first. She turns to Sam and Mark, harshly elbowing them both in the gut. They both bend over in pain, straightening themselves a few moments later.

I stare at the trio in amusement as Sam and Mark both turn to glare at her but she gives them an innocent look as she points in my direction.

They both turn around and spot me in a matter of seconds. I send them both a wink, causing them both to grin at me lazily as they raise their hands to wave at me.

I smile and continue to make my way over to them, taking out a piece of gum from my pocket to chew on as I allowed myself to get lost in thought. A mistake on my part since next thing I know I'm suddenly shoved to the side, catching me off guard and causing me to to fall flat on my ass.

I stay there, sitting in shock for a moment before anger and annoyance slowly started to fill me as I look up and see Jason Matthews, the schools bad boy, the guy who I unwillingly fell for...

He smirks down at me for a few seconds before stretching out his hand for me to take. I glare at his hand as an idea pops into my head. A brilliantly stupid idea. I grab his wrist and pull his hand close enough for me to successfully spit my gum onto his hand. He let out a startled sound before dropping it to the ground and wiping his hand on his pants in disgust.

"You better watch yourself next time because I won't be as lenient with you" he snapped, before spitting on the floor near my feet.

I slowly raise myself from the floor and clench my fist, completely ready to break a few teeth and I most likely would have too if Nina hadn't gotten to me at that moment and sensed my intentions. She placed a hand my my shoulder and yanked me back with enough force to have me crashing straight into Sam's arms. Mark and Nina took a place on either side of me and Sam and then proceeded to dragging me away but I never took my eyes off of Jason's.

I continued to glare at his cold green eyes while he continued to glare at my blue ones just as hard. We walked over to my locker, where they finally chose to let me go.

"You're an idiot for falling for a guy like that Skylar" Nina states tiredly, a hint of annoyance in her voice.

"I know right? I was thinking the same thing" Mark groans out exasperatedly as we all stand together.

Sam just smirks at me "Forbidden love is the best love if you ask me" he states, a smirk still plastered on his face.

"Shut up" I glare at him before letting out a groan of annoyance as they all let out a laugh.

"I really wish summer break wasn't already over, I could be in bed all day long without having to worry about arrogant assholes and loads of homework to complete" I complain to them, really wishing for a longer time away from this hellhole.

"Stop being a whiny bitch Skylar and loosen up, this is our final year of highschool so we have to make every day memorable. I recently bought a big custom album from Michaels to fill with pictures we take this year" Nina shouts excitedly, gaining the attention of a few people walking by.

"Look Nina that's great and everything but can you tone it down a litte. You're being way too loud for my liking" Mark said, looking a tad bit annoyed.

Mark is the type of guy that fearlessly speaks out what's on his mind when he's bothered or curious about something and that trait of his has placed him in a lot of trouble in the past.

"You could have said it a little nicer ya know, you moron"

"That's the nicest way I could put it."

"Ugh you piss me off sometimes"

"That's nice"

"Can you both shut up, I feel a headache coming on and school hasn't even officially started yet" Sam groaned as he put himself between Mark and Nina.

Riiiiiiiiiinnnnnnngggggg

"There goes the ten minute bell, we still need to stop by the office for our class schedules before heading to out first period so lets not waste anymore time" I told them before starting to walk down the hallway. After a few seconds I hear their footsteps start up behind me, letting me know that they were following me.

I look over my shoulder and meet all of their eyes before flashing them a wide smile.

"Last year of high school, here we come"
