The Real World

Grace’s POV

It was the next day. I woke up with a killer headache. I also noticed Laura wasn’t there, but then I saw a note with some Advil to take, then, there was a bottle of Voss water.

Voss was my favorite brand of water. It’s really refreshing. Before we go any more into water, I go downstairs after taking the an Advil.

I know you can’t take Advil without food cause then your stomach really hurts. I can’t afford to have another sick day today.

It may only be the second day of school, but I need to be at school until March 14 because that’s Harry and I’s three-year anniversary! I’m surprising him by taking him to a place that I can’t tell you. We’ll be there for a week and let me just tell you, it’s going to be amazing. I might even change it to two weeks if I talk to the principal.

It might be insanely sickening, but the principal has a crush on me, and loves my father for all the money he has and all of it that he donates to the school.

The time at the moment is half past six in the morning and I need to leave at seven. I run upstairs before I even remember to eat and shower.

Then I get my outfit on. Along with my makeup, and accessories. Looking at the time, I realize that it’s five after seven. Shit! I’m going to be late!!!!

I run out the door as fast as I can with my pumps on to my car. I get in,b ut realize that I forgot my purse. Lucky me right?

As fast as I can I run inside with my pumps still on and grab my purse from the kitchen. Then as I’m racing back to my car I trip before my door.

Great, my heel broke! What else can go wrong. Just then my phone starts ringing. Shit, it’s Harry. I forgot that I had to pick him up.

HOTTEST GIRL: hello?

HOTTEST HARRY: hello, me love. Where are you?

HOTTESST GIRL: Yeah I’m so sorry babe. Everything is going terrible this morning and I forgot.

HOTTEST HARRY: It’s fine baby doll, I’ll just drive my own car today. Don’t worry, its all okay.


HOTTEST GIRL: you sure?

HOTTEST HARRY: Yeah, I am, you just have to make it up to me.

I could tell he was smirking. What a perverted boy he is.

HOTTEST GIRL: PERVERT!!!!!!

With that I hung up. Then I ran upstairs and grabbed another pair of shoes that looked similar.
Slowly going down my stairs, I grab my purse and go to my car. I check that I have everything I need and once that’s done, I head to school.

(1/4 done with school) It’s only been a few hours of school when I realize I haven’t eaten anything today. I guess I forgot to get food.

The period I’m in now is study hall so we all can talk. My teacher, Mrs. Stalker is actually super sweet. She is seventy years old and very tiny. No, she’s not a stalker!

I knew most of the people in my classes so at least one is bound to have a snack for me. The first I went to was Harry.

“Hey babe?”

“Yeah?”

Of course he was trying to act all cool because of his friends surrounding him. I just brush it off and ask him, “ So you have any food, I didn’t eat this morning with the Advil.” He gives me a look of anger and worry.

“Hey guys, I’ll be right back. I need to talk to Grace, alone.”

“Sure man, oh and by the way Grace, don’t let him take you so hard like this summer, when you were limping everywhere! Hahahahahahahaha!!!!”

One of Harry’s friends said and I just ignored it while the othe
rs laughed. Harry grabbed ny arm and dragged me out into the hallway where there was no one except us.

“You didn’t eat?” Harry screamed in pure anger.

It is actually really scary when Harry gets mad. That’s probably because he usually never gets mad. “Well, I had to shower and do my makeup and all of that, then I just forgot!” I yelled back.

“ I’m the only one who should be yelling. I do not want you to go back to that disorder.” He just simply roared. “And you think I care if you wear make up? God that shit is pointless! I don’t see what you girls ever see in it anyways. It makes you look ugly!”

That really just made me feel horrid. I knew I was always ugly, I just brushed it off and acted like I was.
“I’m ugly?” I said with tears brimming my eyelids.

“No, no, no, baby I didn’t mean that you are ugly. No, of course not. You are the most beautiful person I know! I just meant that it hides your beauty so that no one can see it.”

“Okay, I guess…..”

“What do I need to do to make it up to you?”

“After school, take me shopping!” I screamed with excitement and I heard people come outside into the hallway and I just realized that was a little too loud.

“Oh no, I hat shopping with you. First, you never let me pay. You just say I can pay by holding all of your bags. They leave marks on my arms and are even heavy for me!”

“Well, that’s what I want you to do, so were doing it!”

“Ugh, fine just go light on your shopping love?”

“No promises!” I said laughing as I ran off back to study hall.

Mrs. Stalker didn’t even notice. I’m still hungry though. I decide to text Laura to go bring me Starbucks because I know she didn’t want to go to school.
