Arena – B.o.B

“I let it ride on a bad bet. I doubled down on a sinking ship,” the music erupted from my phone on my night stand.

I smacked my phone a few times until the alarm had stopped playing. How could such a great song be now linked to such major depression. I need to seriously rethink my alarm choices.

“Fuck me,” I groaned as I threw the sheet over my head.

I slowly slipped out of my bed from under the sheets and half-heartedly grabbed some clothes and threw them onto my body carelessly. Darling, It’s never getting any better than this and I don’t care about looking all ‘perfect’ for the first day of school.

‘If you tried, would you really look perfect, though?’

Why does my inner bitch always lash out at me?

‘I prefer being called your conscience,’ it responded sarcastically.

And I prefer bitch.

I headed into my parents office across the hall and grabbed my school schedule off of the printer and then went down stairs to grab something to eat before school. I looked down at my phone to see a ‘good luck’ text from Jeremy. I quickly responded and then proceeded to head out the front door since I had a feeling that my two little buddies were going to be at my house to pick me up soon. Sure enough, as soon as I shut the front door Gwen pulled up with Elodie in the passenger seat. I walked up and opened the passenger seat door.

“Sorry little cousin, but the big kids get the front,” I smirked.

She groaned and climbed back as Gwen laughed as she backed out of the driveway.

“Alright, Elodie, let me see your schedule,” I said as I placed a hand behind my head without looking.

I felt a piece of paper in my hand and I wrapped my hands around it and brought in from of my face. My eyes skimmed it before I spoke.

“We have Gebs together. We all have sociology together, which we planned,” I smirked back at Elodie, “Oh no.”

“What?” Elodie leaned forward with her voice sounding awfully nervous.

“You have Taylor for Chem,” I said softly.

“Oh shit!” Gwen blurted.

“What!? What’s wrong with Mrs. Taylor?” Elodie seemed to be freaking out now.

“I have a theory her parents didn’t love her, dropped her as a baby, then never taught her about personal space because that bitch… is crazy,” Gwen emphasized her last four words each greatly.

“Dammit!” Elodie sighed as she fell back in her seat.

I laughed as we made our way to school and entered the doors near the senior lot.

“Later! I’m off to go see the crazy bitch, apparently,” Elodie yelled as she sprinted in front off us and headed down the hall.

“What do you have first?” I questioned as I peered over at the piece of paper in Gwen’s hand.

“I have Ceramics 2,” she said also glancing at the paper.

“I have AP Humanities 1,” I smiled at her knowing that she had tried to get into that class but didn’t.

Gwen was a hard-core art freak. She loved anything artistic and was great at it, so not getting into a class that goes in depth about art in the ancient times up to the renaissance era and how impacted history, needless to say, made her just a little bit mad that I got in.

“I’ll see you later,” I said as we parted ways to go to our own classes.

The door to my first block was in the center of my line of sight and I was almost there when I heard the warning bell go off and I feel a body bump into me. I looked up to see the person I wasn’t exactly hoping to see today.

“Charlotte,” I breathed.

Brayden’s sister.

“Georgia,” she said as hesitantly as I did.

“So… how are you?”

I’m literally lost right now.

What the hell am I supposed to say to this person!!

“I’m good… and you?”

“Fine.”

‘Smooth.’

“Well, I sort-of need to get to class.”

“Right, same,” I said awkwardly.

I began to walk away until I soon realized that she was still right behind me. I began to move faster as I walked into my classroom and sat down. It wasn’t until the final bell rang that he reason she was following me was because this was her class as well.

Well, this is going to be a long day…
