“Charlotte, you grades are dropping. Why," Mrs. Panatine asked. She's always been very blunt about things, always straight to the point.
I shrugged my shoulders“ It might be lack of sleep, mom hasn't gotten my medication this week," I stated. She nodded her head. believeing my half lie. my mom hasn't gotten my meds in more than a week. Its been like four months.
“I can make a call if you'd like," she said softly. I could tell she felt bad.
“No," I said,“ That's okay, my doctor said he was mailing them from now on." That was a complete lie. My doctor died and my mom was to busy snorting what ever she could find up her nose, to find me a new one. Hell maybe she has gotten my medication, and she snorted it.
“Okay, just make sure to get your grades back up. Heres a late pass. Have a good day Charlotte," she murmured as she wrote out my late pass.
I took the pass and walked out of her office. I walked to my locker and switched my books for my next class. I almost made it to class when I heard crying coming from the bathroom. So I decided to make a detour.
“Hello," I asked as I walked into the bathroom. the person who was crying tryed to stop but couldn't.
I walked by the stalls to see the only the last one closed.
“Hey, are you okay? What's wrong," I asked while knocking on the stall door.
She opened the door slowly. I smiled at her. “I'm Charlotte," I said holding my hand out to her. “Brooke," she said shaking my hand. She had stopped crying now.
“Do you want a hug," I asked the girl with pink and blue hair. She nodded quickly and ran into my arm. We hugged for a minute or so and she let go.
“Are you okay," I asked.
“Im better now, thank you. it just. my boyfriend or ex boyfriend cheated in me. and I just found out. What's wrong with me that he had to cheat on me," she asked.
“Nothings wrong with you, guys are just pigs. And I love your hair," I said smiling at her.
She laughed,“Thanks I like yours to. There's so many different shades of blue I'm yours. Its amazing. But, um, can I, maybe sit with you at lunch?"
“Of Course, but here let's clean up your make up. So we can get to class."
We took about 15 minutes cleaning her makeup and reapplying it. Then went to class. Or Almost did, the bell rang right when I was about to open the door. So I turned back around and walked to my locker. Getting my books for English.
“Why weren't you in class," Ellie said running up to me,“And these are the notes and your work sheet." I grabbed the sheets and looked through them. Easy enough.
“Mrs. Panatine called me to her office to talk about my dropping grades. And when I was walking to class their was this girl in the bathroom crying so I helped her," I stated. She nodded her head.
“Liam, please, that's not what I was saying, please," I heard slutty Sarah shriek. I turned arounded and saw Liam trying to get away from her as she ran after him. He spotted Ellie and i and ran to us.
“Help me," he yelled hiding behind us. We giggle as Sarah stomped away.
“Your tampon string is hanging out," Liam yelled at her. And it was! We all laughed, every one in the hallway. The warning bell went off and Ellie and I started to run. Our next class was all the way on the other side of school. and when had a minute to get there. We ran through other students and teachers. We made it to class with five seconds left. I quickly made my way to a seat in the back while Ellie went to the front. Shelby was beside me, Cale was in front of her and Brooke was infront of me.
“Okay class," Mrs. Clark said,“Today were going to do group work..." I tuned her out after that, I would get the group to explain whats going on.
Mrs. Clark spent 20 minutes going over directions. “Charlotte your with... Cale, Brooke and Shelby," She said. I nodded. and she went on. “Group up," she said and my group pulled their chairs over to mine.
Ellie came over to me,“Char are you going to be okay going home today instead of mine. My mom is grounding me for something Lake did, again."
I nodded and made her go away.
“Why were you called to the office this morning," Cale asked.
“My grades," I responded.
“What about them," he asked.
“They're dropping," I answered.
“Why?"
“I don't sleep."
“Why?"
“Because I cant."
“Why don't you get medication?"
“I have the prescription, just not the pills."
“Why?"
“My moms probably snorting them."
My eyes widened when I said that, and so did Brookes Cales and Shelbys.
“What," Cale asked.“Can we just fucking work on this fucking project," I half yelled.
They all nodded their heads and got to work.
Double shit, I thought
