Jaded, chapter 1
Ok your names Layla you just moved to Rodeo, California. You lived in Arizona before but now you don't. Umm it's your first day at your new high school. Your 18 years old on with the story then....
"Ughhhhh" you said looking at your alarm clock. "Why me and why now" You got out of your bed, finally, took a shower, got dressed, put on your usual make-up, and your brown hair in a messy bun. "Honey you up? It's your first day of school" your mom called from down stairs. "Yeah I'm ready!" you said running down stairs. You went outside got in your car and drove to school. Great you thought as you drove into a parking spot. You got out of your car and started walking to the school. You went through the double doors and into the principle's office to get your schedule. "Hi I'm Layla I'm here for my schedule since I just moved here..." you said to the lady at the desk. "Huh? Oh you're the new girl; here I'll get your schedule. What's your last name?" she said in a southern accent. "It's Riddance." "Ok darling I'll get that for you." she said then handed you a paper with your classes. "Thanks." You said unenthusiastically then walked out the door. "201... hmm 201? Where the heck is that?" You asked yourself. "Uhh it's that way." A guy said pointing to the right hall. "Oh, thanks." you said kind of blushing because he was cute, no really cute, no hot. "Your welcome... hey can I see your classes?" he questioned. "Umm sure here" but before you finished saying that he snatched the paper from your hands. "AWESOME! We have the same classes, except for period one .Since we do and your obviously new here... want me to walk you to your classes?" "Uhhh umm y-yeah..." you stuttered. "GREAT! I'll meet you in front of this class then... Oh by the way my names Billie Joe Armstrong but you can call me Billie and your name is?" "Layla, Layla Riddance." You said taking his hand and shaking it. "Ok then Layla I'll meet you soon... Oh crap the bells going to ring soon bye!" and with that said he rushed down the halls almost slipping. Wow you thought he was nice and had beautiful eyes then you hurried down the hall where Billie pointed and ran into class. "Ahh you're the new girl" the tall bearded math teacher said. "Layla, isn't it?" "Yeah" you said. "Ok Layla sit down. And don't be tardy again" he said pointing to a chair in the back. "Ok geez don't have to get mad at nothing." You said in a whisper and walking to the seat. You sat down. "HI! I'm Crystal." The black, red tipped haired girl said who was sitting next to you holding her hand out. "Umm Hi?" you said "I'm Layla" "So where did you move from?" she asked. "Oh nowhere special, just Scottstale, Arizona"You said. "Ehhumm???? Layla I let you of easy this time... but Crystal I expected better from you!" Mr. Monnochochie said. "Yeah yeah what ever" She said crouching down in her seat. For the rest of that period you fell asleep listening to Mr. Monnochochie lecturing something about prime numbers. "Miss. Riddance? Please pay attention!" He said. "Huh? What?" you said waking up from your peaceful nap. "I SAID PAY ATTENTION!" He yelled. You heard some smart kids snickering. "Oh, ok whatever..." you said. Then the bell rang. Surprisingly, to you at least, Billie was outside waiting for you and I thought he wouldn't show. You thought. "Ready to walk to class madam?" He said as if he was rich or something. "Why of course!" you said giggling. Then you guys started down the halls. "Soo... meet anyone new?" he asked trying to start a conversation. "Yeah this girl named Crystal, she's really nice." You answered. "Ha, really? That's my cousin!" "No way... " "Uhh yeah way!" he said sounding like a prep. You laughed. "She doesn't look anything like you." You said. "Well I find that a good thing because I'm not very attractive." He said looking at the ground sadly. "YEAH YOU ARE!..... uhhh I mean uhhh you're not ugly." You said while your faced turned red. He smirked trying to make sure you didn't see him smirking. "Well we're here... .. History I mean what's the point of it? Were not going to use this crap anyway." He said then you two walked in. "Ok class get your History books out. Well, well Mr. Armstrong a pleasure to have you here today, and may I ask who your girlfriend is?" Mrs. Love said. "Oh, I'm Layla Riddance, I just moved here and I'm not his girlfriend." You said. "Oh well very nice to meet you now take your seats." She said. "Gosh, like every teacher is yelling at me today." You whispered to Billie. For the rest of that period you sat there bored out of your mind with Billie passing you notes, but that soon stopped after she found it and read it to the class. Then the bell rang and you guys ran out of that room before Mrs. Love could say anything to you two. "Hey want to sit with me and my friends at brunch?" Billie asked. "Yeah! It's not like I have anyone else to sit with" you told him. When you got to the tables you saw Crystal. "Hey Layla. I didn't know you knew my cousin." she said. "Yeah I met him today" you said shyly. "Oh Layla, this is Terra, Mike, Al, and Jessie." He said pointing to each person. Terra was blonde with pink, blue, black, and green streaks in her hair. Mike was pretty tall and nice looking. Al had brown hair and Jessie was blonde and didn't look like she belonged there. "Hey, Layla doing anything this weekend?"(It's Friday) Billie asked. "Nope!" you said. "Ok cool, then do you want to hang out at my house and watch my band play?" He said. "Yeah of course, that sounds great, what's your band's name? What do you play? Are you the singer?" you said. "Oh sorry that was a lot of questions... " "It's ok. The band's name is Sweet Children" Billie said, "and you'll find out what I do when you come over." He smirked. "Ok, fine." You said smiling. "Haha you don't know" he said sticking his tongue out. You did the bottom puppy lip thing. "Aww is Layla sad? Want a hug?" He said holding his arms out. "Uhhhh yaaaaa NO!" you laughed. Then Terra, Crystal and them laughed too. "You make me sad." Billie said like he was 5. "OH, I sowwy." You giggled. "It's Otay!" Billie said, and then you guys laughed. "Ha you guys are weird, but, weird is cool." Terra said. "So Billie when are we meeting for band practice anyway?" Mike asked. "Uhhhh how about 3:00 tomorrow." "Cool" Mike and Al said at the same time. "JINX!" Al screamed. "HAHA you owe me a cigarette!" he yelled. "Uhh cigarette?" You asked Billie. "Yeah we thought that whole coke thing was dumb so we said hey how about cigarettes instead!" he answered. "Oh..." you said. "Umm you need my address huh?" He said. "Yeah if I'm going to watch you guys play." You said. "Uhhh can I have your hand?" He asked. "Billie you just met her and now you want her hand in marriage?" Crystal said. "NO! Well not yet." He joked. "I need it to write down the address." "Uhhuh riiiiight!" she laughed. Then he grabbed your hand and wrote the address down. Soon after the bell rang and you and Billie walked to class.
