My Life, chapter 1
'Morning Alex.'
'Morning Mr. L.' Alex said, sitting down in a small room, dropping her bag on the floor.
'I think we should talk about something different today...'
'Like what? I mean... somehow we end up talking about me...'
'Well... how are you doing on your guitar?' Mr. Lexington (Mr. L.) said, turning around to hand Alex her math book she left there the other day.
'Good... I finally got my song finished.'
'Could I hear?'
'Umm... sure...' Alex said, opening her guitar case. The Billie Joe guitar. She had her guitar signed by Billie Joe, she saw him at a guitar shop when she was picking up her friends bass, for a birthday gift she put her friends nick-name on the finger board. She started playing, she didn't feel like singing, but she also had gotten sick.
~ 'Man... one more day with Mr. L. I think I'll blow!' Alex said sitting down at the lunch table with her friends. 'I swear... He's so... well, he's nice, but he wants to know every goddamn thing!'
'Well yeah... he's a counsler! He's supposed to know everything...' said Erin, Alex's "girlfriend". Alex has a boyfriend, but she's bisexual! For about 4 years her and Erin have been "going out".
'Oh... fuck that!'
'Hey... Didn't you say that you'd have someone following you around all the time?' Joel asked... Her Mike look alike boyfriend... but that's not the reason why she's with him!
'Yeah...' Alex said, nodding her head at the door.
'Oh... Geez... girl I feel really bad for you!' Joel gave her a little kiss on the cheek and let her eat her pizza.
'You know... I've been thinking of a way to get that guy out of my way... But, I'll have to tell you in the parking lot, cause once the bell rings he's outta here!'
'Oh Alex, I wont be able to make it to your play... There's this really fucked up thing going on, that I dont even know about.' Erin said, tossing her paper bag at the garbage at the edge of the stage where their table was.
'WHAT? But babe, you promised!' Alex said, giving her the puppy dog pout.
'Sweets... I'm sorry, but I cant go unless my dad says I'm not apart of it...'
'Fuckenemiers! Oh... ok... But I still need your guitar!'
'Okay, we can pick it up when you drop me off.'
'Sure...'
~ 'Troy? Troy, please dont...'
'You cheated on me... I must...' Troy walking over to Jennifer, giving her a passionate kiss, lets go of her hand, opens the door, and leaves.
'TROY!' Jennifer said, running to the door, opening it quickly, tears running down her face. All of the lights turn low'
'It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right, I hope you had the of your life... So take the photographs and still frames in your mind, hang it on a shelf in good health and good time. Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trail, for what it's worth, it's worth all the while. It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right... I hope you had the time of your life...' Jennifer sings, Good Riddance (Time of your Life), the lights are complelelty off, and the roar of clapping echos in Alex's mind...
Walking out onto the stage, she bows and the lead character, and artist of the play, all based on one song. In the back dressing room, she un-buttons her blue top, grabs her black Good Charlotte shirt and her guitar and walks out to see Joel, waiting for her, right in the front row...
'Where are you?' Alex says to herself... She looks in the front row, not one person... Jumps off the stage, looks in the rows. Finally in the way back, she see's about 9 people talking, a little bit of yelling.
'WHAT!?! You copied me! I've had this hair style way longer than you!'
'C'mon you guys! Calm down!' She could hear Joel, she saw his blue eyes.
'Umm... what's goin on?'
8 people turn around all looking at her. 4 blue eyes, 2 green, and 2 brown... adding Joel's, that's 5 blue eyes.
