Chapter 1: F*ck My Life

Nevaeh POV

"If you continue to spend the next two years on your ponytail, we'll surely be late" Candy rushed me.

I know I don't make the best attempts to look nice for that prison, but I could at least appear presentable, right?

I rolled my eyes, "Yeah, whatever. I'm done" I grabbed my bag and key from my dresser, exiting my room and going down the stairs.

"Finally", she breathed. Every morning she'd rush me to get to school, even on days we didn't ride together. She was my best friend and all, but the days we drove to school together were the worst.

The drive to school is about a ten minute one and she'd still make me leave at least 25 minutes before we actually needed to. She called it being punctual, I called it being impatient.

Let me rephrase, Impatient to see a certain someone.

*

In the time that I sat here thinking to myself, I failed to notice that we were already in our school parking lot. It wasn't until I heard a knock on the passenger window and saw that Candy was out the car that I figured it out. She shook her head as I scurried to retrieve my bag from the backseat.

"Every morning Vaeh"

I laughed. It was true, I'd always get lost in a trance just thinking about nothing.

"Remind me, why are we friends again?" she teased.

"Because I pushed that girl off the monkey bars that made you cry in the fourth grade." I pointed out.

"She was a true bitch" Candy scrunched her nose.

"You're welcome" I cheesed,opening my locker.

She began to ramble on about Jason, her 'friends with benefits'. Although I thought they were something more.

All of a sudden, she stopped talking. Her eyes looking behind me and her mouth now formed a smile.

I furrowed my eyebrows, turning around just to see Jason, Chris, and Dameon making their way towards us. I rolled my eyes turning back around.

Speak of the devil.

Every girl at my school who was gullible enough, swooned at those three boys. Now let me tell you something, I am not gullible.

I used to think the same for Candy when we used to roll our eyes at their presence. That was until she and Jason got stuck doing a project together and then came this 'friends with benefits' thing.

God, I miss the old days.

Now, if I happen to see something and make a comment, she'll reply with something on the lines of, "C'mon they're not that bad."

Yeah okay.

"So, will you let me take you to the dance?" Jason held out a rose to her with a smirk on his face.

"Of course" she cheesed, accepting the flower.

It was then that I felt a pair of eyes on me. I looked up from my locker to catch Chris staring at me with an emotionless expression.

It made me very uncomfortable.

"Uh, I'll see you later Candy. I'm going to class." I mumbled to her so only she could hear me.

"The bell hasn't even rung yet" she whined.

I said nothing else and just waved at her goodbye. If I tried to make my point, it would only result in me being here longer.

***

I sat at our usual lunch table with Candy, eating my gummy bears. Whenever I ate during lunch, this would usually be what I had.

I don't know, I think I have an addiction.

"So, did you hear?" Candy smiled, looking up from her phone.

"About?"

"Jason's party. He asked me to be his date" she blushed.

"Shut up Vaeh. We're 'just friends' " I mimicked her voice.

She giggled, "Okay, so maybe I might have a tiny crush, just a little bit. It's harmless" she shrugged. "Will you come?"

I shook my head, "You know I don't do parties. I'd rather be in my bed eating and watching Scandal. "

"Don't be lame V, it's senior year." She groaned.

I shrugged, eating another gummy bear. I've never been one to care for getting drunk and being around a bunch of sweaty teenagers.

"At least come shopping with me tomorrow. The party is Saturday" she gave me pleading eyes.

I shrugged. It's not like I spent my Friday's doing anything anyway. "Fine. But don't think I'll be trying on any dresses with you" I compromised.

"I wouldn't have thought other wise" she rolled her eyes.

"You know me so well" I laughed just as the bell rung signaling that our lunch was over. I had a free period next so I headed straight to the library.

This was the time I'd complete the work I'd received for the day so that I wouldn't have to worry about it at home.

I was doing fine until I heard shuffling on the other side of the book shelf that I was sitting next to. A giggling girl telling someone to stop.

I rolled my eyes, knowing well already who the two were. Every day for the past month, one of the jackasses, Chris, would come in here with a girl and ruin my peaceful time.

There was a rumor going around that he had been caught in one of his other little hideouts.

That doesn't mean that he had to come here and make my blood boil.

I rolled my eyes once again, putting in my earphones and letting out a sigh. Just then a book came flying down on my head from the shelf being pushed.

Where's the librarian when you need her?

I pouted, rubbing my head. The girl and Chris' head popped out from behind the shelf and she giggled before letting out an "Oops."

"If you cant wait until you get home, don't come in here knocking shit down" I replied while grabbing my stuff, getting ready to leave before I catch a case. It's senior year and there is no room for messing up.

"Sorry" Chris held back a laugh as I left.

"What ever" I mumbled.

Asshole.

**

I was forced to finish my work at home, but at least it was quiet and I was alone. I'd be able to do my work in peace and maybe even-

"I wanna sex you baby" music played from outside my window.

So much for peace and quiet.

I glanced over to see a girl I recognize from my third period class, giving Chris a lap dance. I scrunched up my nose in disgust.

Why must I be cursed to be his neighbor? And even worse, why does his room have to face mine?

I mean, sure a long time ago that was one of the things I liked most about my room. Now, things have changed and it's what I hate the most about my room.

His eyes looked at me slowly, and stopped when they met mine. I quickly jumped and shut my blinds, cursing myself for being caught watching the little show.

Three words ran through my head; Fuck my life.
