This Hell Called Life (an Oliver Sykes love story)

Chapter 9

I woke up with a start. "Why does my fucking head hurt?" I thought and looked around my bedroom, I grabbed my phone to check the time. Its only four in the morning and we haven't even gone back to school. I could hear my mother's snores from her bedroom above mine. I groaned and flopped my head back on my pillow.

"What the fuck was that about?"

I took a sip of water from my Batman cup and looked over at my closet door. My Helena dress was still hanging on the front.

"I'm glad that wasn't a dream." I said out loud and laid back down and fell asleep. This time I dreamed that I was Helena in the coffin and My Chemical Romance was carrying my body out of the church.

The next time I woke up my alarm clock was blasting Black Veil Brides. I struggled to turn it off so I didn't wake my mother.

"I don't wanna go..." I shoved my face in by pillow. "Fuck that shit I'm not going." I mumbled and texted Oli that I wasn't going. I woke up at noon because my stomach grumbling too loud.

"Ugh I am not eating." I pointed at my stomach and got up. I stretched my arms and cracked my back before standing in front on my mirror and lifting up my tank top. I moved around and didn't take my eyes off my thighs or stomach.

"I don't know why I don't eat I mean I was always skinny but That's because I had no one to fucking feed me. I try to eat but I get sick. I have to try and stay healthy and live for Oli. And God knows what my mother will do to my poor little Sammy when I die of my Anorexia or something else." I sighed heavily and sat down to do my makeup.

After I had a simple ring of black around my eyes and my hair looked decent I put on a Sleeping With Sirens shirt and plaid pajama pants. I grabbed my phone and blanket and turned off my lights before going upstairs and laying on the floor.

I got my laptop from the table and went on Tumblr. I saw that I had a new follower. It was Oli. I also saw a game called Crossy Roads so I immediately grabbed my phone and downloaded it. I spent the rest of the day playing that stupid game.

At three o'clock there was a knock on the door. I sighed and got up. Oli was standing there with the two girls I saw in my dream last night.

"Hey Zoe I made friends and they wanted to meet you! This is Ariana Storms and Bella Jackson." He said proudly pointing to each girl as he said their name. Ariana was a short girl with sorta long brown hair, a nose piercing, a lip piercing and a kind of round face that was adorable. And Bella was a taller but not taller than Oli, stronger looking than Ariana with red hair and glasses. I think that Bella came to our school a few years ago from Ireland and Ariana came here in the third grade from Oklahoma. I wonder why Bella would leave Ireland for boring old Wyoming. The only thing I like about this stupid place is Yellowstone National Park because of the wolves. I drew a few last year from a tree that I carved my name into.

"Oh well it's nice to meet you guys do you want to come in and hang out?" I asked awkwardly and moved out of the way. They all smiled and walked in and sat on the couch. I didn't care if they took their shoes off. Because today is Monday my mother will be working late then going to the bar.

"Alright who wants to play a game?" Ariana asked with a smirk on her face as she sat on the floor with her legs crossed.

"Oh God Ari." Bella moved hair out of her face and spoke.

"Let's play truth or dare." I suggested. Groans and and sounds of agreement were heard. Bella was the only one that groaned.

"Zoey you first. Truth or dare?" Ariana said from across the room.
