***********
I knew I shouldn't have taken so long to eat my lunch. Now I'm going to be late and I can't find my locker. Stupid, stupid, stupid!
It was period 5 and I was wondering around the school, having no idea where the hell I was supposed to go. Of course, if I would have asked Colette to come with me. But my pride was in the question... I couldn't bear to insult it!
Ah! Found it! FINALLY!
I swung my locker open, eager to just go to class. I conjured up excuses in my mind.
I need to pee and I got locked in the bathroom... no.
I accidentally fell down the stairs and broke my leg... too cliche.
I was lost.... boring!
Looks like I an going to have to use the new girl card. Well, better than wasting precious after school time in detention.
Suddenly, I felt hot breath across my neck.
"You're in my way!" a husky voice whispered.
But me being the paranoid idiot I am, I don't move! On no! That would be too easy! I decide to elbow him in the gut, hit the side of his face with my book (the same book the got me into this mess, might I add), smashing it into the lockers and then knee him where the sun don't shine.
With a swift "uff", he collapsed onto the floor and groaned.
As Claire aims to leave her oppressive stepfamily behind, she befriends Zion. Will he be her ticket to freedom or a distraction in achieving her dreams?
