Broken Homes and Broken Hearts
Chapter 1
*Serenity's POV*
I woke up to an annoying beeping sound. I rolled over and looked at the clock that read 7:00.
"Shit! Roxy get your lazy ass up!" I yelled, throwing a pillow at her.
"What the fuck do you want bitch?" she screamed at me before she saw the clock. We were going to be late to our auditions for the X-Factor. Two months ago we had finally decided to carry out our dreams from eighth grade. We always knew we wanted to be stars. We had talked about it for years. We had even made videos that we never posted, because we never knew if we were good enough. Roxy, my best friend, had always been the one who seemed cocky. She really wasn't, but no one but me and her know that. She was actually really broken on the inside and just used that image to cover it up. She's always had my back, even when we were pissed off at each other, which was almost never. The one thing that pissed me off about her is that she always made us late. She finally got up and took a shower though and we left on time. When we finally got on the road, Rox turned on the radio and our favorite song with on, so we belted out the words to Tell Me a Lie by One Direction on the way to LA. Once the song was over Roxy spoke up, "Speaking of 1D... I saw some rumors on Tumblr saying that Harry and Niall might guest judge with Demi!"
"I call dibs on Niall!"
"That's perfectly fine, because I like Harry more anyways. I can practically hear his deep voice moaning my name right now!"
"Rox! You have a boyfriend!" I laughed.
"Who? Jake? He's a dick anyways." she referred to her current boyfriend who she never seemed to want to talk about, which seemed very odd for her, considering the perverted mind she always had.
"What's wrong with Jake? He seems like he really likes you."
"Likes me my ass.. he only uses me for sex." she mumbled the last part almost too quietly for me to hear.
"What?!"
"It's nothing. We'll talk about it later. This is going to be the best day ever and nothing, not even Jake, is going to ruin it for us."
"Trust me, this conversation isn't over Roxanne Misty Green."
The rest of the drive was pretty quiet apart the radio and us occasionally singing, until Roxy's phone went off.
*Roxy's POV*
"Hello?"
"Hey babe." I recognized Jake's voice immediately.
"What do you want, Jake?" I was pissed off because he was hitting on some blonde bimbo the night before.
"C'mon babe, I was drunk. You know I didn't mean any of it."
"Yeah that's always your excuse."
"Oh, get over it. You're not an angle either."
"And what's that suppose to mean?!" I was raising my voice now, knowing that I would regret it later but fuck it.
"It means that you looked like a complete whore! You always do!" Tears were stinging the back of my eyes now, knowing that what he said was probably true. I always over do it. I try to impress guys, and then I push them away. It's all my fault, and my self esteem sucks.
"I'm sorry.." I almost whispered, trying not to cry in front of Serenity.
"Yeah, you better be. And you can pay for it when you get back."
"Well I gotta go. Bye."
"Bye. Love you."
"Love you too," I lied.
