I have traveled through madness to find me
Lunch came and I practically ran out of English class. Not that I hated the subject, but the teacher herself was too creepy. I found myself swarmed in the midst of students and I followed them to the cafeteria. Thankfully I was the first on the queue so I took my time to choose my food. I picked 2 slices of pizza and a diet coke.
I turned around and searched for Ginger but couldn't find him. I shrugged and made my way to the last isolated seat of three chairs. I threw a slice down for Storm and began to eat my food.
A shadow loomed over me and I looked up to see the girl that was with the bully, Todd. I gripped the plastic plate tightly, trying to control myself from scathing her pretty face off.
"Hey." She sat down on the third seat opposite mine and I s
You will not heal by going back to what broke you."Don't you dare go in there Lee you won't like what you'll see." I heard dad yell and I sat up on my bed and rubbed my sleepy eyes. Storm was wide awake and staring at the door."Morning Storm." I greeted in my raspy voice and the door slammed open. My eyes widened as I stared at the feet of the person in my room and slowly trailed upwards. Green boots, black jumper worn with a green crop top and a green bandana on a perfect red hair in a ponytail. There was only one person that was this creative and obsessed with bandanas."Aunt Lily." I deadpanned and she squealed and pulled me in tight hug. She released me when I gasped for air and smiled sheepishly. Aunt Lily was my dad's adopted sister and mom's half sister. I really don't care about what happened in the past.
When everything is lonely, I can be my best friend."How did you..." I trailed off when he looked back at me and turned front, hugging his knees and playing with the water. I knew I was lying but I needed to cheer him up. He was better off not sad."How did you know?" I asked again after clearing my throat. I folded my arms and watched as Storm began to play with the plants."You're so noisy for a stalker. I could hear your footsteps and heavy breathing. Plus you don't need to act dumb, it's not required," he said and I rolled my eyes and sat close to him, hugging my knees too."So..." I trailed off and he glared at me. The swell on his eyes had reduced and the color was now a shade of purple. I smiled at the blue shirt he wore. We kind of matched."I told you to st

She was the first person to stand and listen to my song. I picked the money in the guitar case and returned the guitar into the case.I felt kind of embarrassed that she gave that much money like I was some charity case. I picked up my guitar case and walked home. I hope Papa isn't strangling Mama again because this time, I'll do something we'll both regret.I opened the door and was greeted by emptiness. The TV was gone, everything useful in this house. Mama laid on a couch, looking unto space with silent tears falling fro
You can't do epic shit with basic people."Don't you have a place called school to go to." I heard dad knock on my door and I sat up with sleepy eyes. I stared at the wall clock and my eyes widened. I had few minutes to be at school. I got up instantly and rushed to my bathroom to have a quick bath. My hair was really tangled so I did my usual rough double dutch braids.I dressed up quickly and picked my bag. I didn't want to disturb Storm who was still asleep so I rushed out and went to the refrigerator to grab a granola bar."Here take this. I hate high school lunches, it's gross." Uncle Levi said handling me a paper bag. I threw it in my backpack and ran to dad's garage. I climbed on my new bike, fixed my helmet and drove out of the house.I got to the school and parked it at the students pa
Life's a bitch. You've got to go out there and kick some asses off."Was it Todd that gave you the bruise on your eye the first time I saw you?" I asked him and he looked away from me. I had been dreading to know if it was Todd ever since he told me he was used to more pain. I needed to know if he was abused by someone else too, or only bullied by Todd."Yeah," he replied but I could tell he was lying. He changed his voice and became still. He avoided eye contact and blinked rapidly. His chest rose and fell in a fast pace. I knew it wasn't going to be easy for him to tell me, but I needed to know. I needed to be there for him."Liar." I drawled slowly and he shook his head and balled his fist. I was infuriating him so he would tell me out if frustration. I would do anything to get the truth from him."
"I'd like to see him first," dad said with his hands akimbo and I rolled my eyes at his style of being the strict father."He can be very shy." I whispered and dad gave me a questioning look. I sighed and went over to open the door, ignoring Aunt Lily's teasing whistle. Uncle Levi on the other hand was holding a shot gun in case he needed to shoot the guy. His words not mine."My crazy family wants to see you." I told him and he exhaled in fright and rubbed his shaking hands together. He looked really good in a white long sleeved shirt and jean. His hair covered with a black head warmer.He came in and froze. I glared at Uncle Levi who pointed the gun to him. He grinned in happiness, and lowered the gun."I heard you're taking my girl out on a little trip?" Dad asked and I rolled my eyes. Ginger flinched and nodded slowly.

I told him and his lips trembled much to my pleasure. This was want I wanted. His mind unable to think straight because of me. Because of what I was capable of doing."You k-k-killed a married m-man and his 4 year o-o-old child," he stuttered and I rolled my eyes. Out of all things he could use to remember me was this."The man was annoying the hell out of me and he should have known not to bring his daughter into my rubber room or should I call it padded cell when he wanted to do his therapying." I told him with quoted fingers and his e
HARRIET-MANNERS POV"Fuck." I muttered as I slammed the tip of my already pink pointy finger inside my locker. That was excruciatingly painfy. Fucking stupid old lockers. Who on earth created these lockers anyway? I slung my side bag over my head, adjusted my light green uniform shirt and got in the midst of ugly headed students that had no regard for common sense when it came to walking in the hallways. I got out of Manchester Central high school and breathed shortly in relief. I made it out without any injuries.Walking on the streets of Manchester, I avoided the looks of fear from people I passed by. They saw me as a murderer and a psychopath, honestly I'm just 16 .Finally, I got to the lonely street of my home which wasn't so lonely as I saw some boys playing basket ball at the public court.My pace came to a halt when a ball hit my butt and I

I know you want the satisfaction, that's not gonna happenFinally, I wore my leather bracelet, with my knife and nodded at my reflection. I looked bad ass. I was wearing a ripped jean shorts and an oversized long sleeved sweatshirt. I wore my fleece short sleeved jacket and paired it with a high top leather boot. Myhair were in two unkempt double dutch braids. I fixed Storm's leach and took my backpack."What the bloody hell have you done to your room?" I heard dad screech and I groaned and looked around the room walls. I took my time to write a few things or so many words and reminders with a black permanent marker on the walls. If anyone saw it, they would think I'm insane but to me, it looked cool."I warned you about stepping into my room without permission dad." I complained and he looked at me wi
