100 Days to Love
Chapter 1
Give me love like her 'cause lately I've been waking up alone paint splattered tear drops on my shirt told you I'd let them go.
Ed Sheeran's Give Me Love blasted through the speakers on my phone, letting me know that the dreaded first day of year 10 has begun. Sliding my finger to the right, I turned the alarm off and stumbled out of bed, heading towards the bathroom to take a shower.
Once I was in the shower, I poured shampoo into my hand and lathered it into my shoulder length brown hair, causing white bubbles to form all over my head. Rinsing the shampoo out, I tried to imagine what today would be like.
Would there be hot guys? Probably. Bullies? I hope not. Creepy old teachers? Most likely, but I don't really care about all of that. I just want to know if I'll make friends today... Who am I kidding? Of course I'll make friends! No one can resist my dashing good looks and wonderful personality. I mean look at me, I'm irresistable.
Just kidding. I barely look like a human most of the time, and I would rather be asleep than socializing, so today should be interesting.
Of course school requires other individuals to work together so what's going to happen when some poor student is forced to work with Caroline the cancer girl? I imagine the student glaring at the teacher, or at least being sympathetic about it and cooperating. It could go either way really.
Then again, only a few people knew about my sickness last year. Maybe it's still relatively a secret from the student body. I mean I hope it's still a secret, I don't want to go into school labeled as ' the girl with cancer' that doesn't sound like a fun way to start off the year.
" Caroline you've been in the shower for over 30 minutes get out now!" My mum shouted. Shit shit shit shit shit I'm gonna be late! I can't be late on the first day! Ugh stupid brain making me think about school this early, look what you've done! I might be late because of yo- am I really talking to my brain? No wonder I don't have friends...
Turning off the water, I wrapped myself in a fuzzy purple towel and ran to the closet to pick out my outfit for the day. Shorts? No it's too cold for those. Sweatpants? No do I want to look like a hobo?! But they are comfortab- No! I can't wear those today... Maybe tomorrow. I decided on light blue skinny jeans and a white crop top with pink words saying 'kiss me like you wanna be loved.' I grabbed my backpack and made my way downstairs.
"Good morning mum" I said.
" Its about time sweetie you're already running behind schedule!" She replied.
" Yes I know! Sorry... Can we go now please?" " Wow you seem eager to go to school" she said confusion lacing her voice.
I'm not eager to go to school I'm forcing myself to leave before I lock myself in my room and sleep for the rest of the year, now can we go please go while I still have will power?!
"Yeah I just don't want to be late" I huffed out. "Oh well that's fine we can go after you eat your breakfast." She said with enthusiasm, and waved her hand over the food on the plate.
Great... I looked back and forth between my mum and the burnt pancakes before letting out a large sigh.
"Mum I'll just get something from school, don't want to be late you know" "Oh ok that's fine." She said in a disappointed tone. "Do you want me to drive you?"
No shit lady, I'm not walking a mile! I barely wanted to walk down the stairs. "Yes please."
* * * * *
"Okay Caroline! We're here." She said excitedly "Yes, I know." I replied looking out the window.
"Do you need help carrying anything? I can carry your backpack, or help you put stuff in your locker, or I can just walk you to the do-." "NO!... I mean you don't have to do that, I'll be fine mum don't worry." I said getting out of the car
"Okay bye Caroline, I love you sweetie!" She said through the window.
Oh my god! Is she trying to ruin my social life?!... Well it's not like I have one anyway, but still! She can't just say those things when people are around!
"Bye." I mumbled.
"What was that? Sorry I didn't hear you."
"I said bye." I mumbled slightly louder.
"Caroline honey you have to talk louder than that if you want me to hear you."
"JESUS CHRIST WOMAN I SAID BYE!"
"Oh okay so is that my cue to leave?" She asked smiling.
Me getting out of the car 5 minutes ago was your cue to leave..
"Yes mum it is, now bye I'll see you after school." I said walking away.
God, what is wrong with these girls? Is it wear the least amount of clothing day?Because it really seems like most of them, don't even have clothes on!
And all these fake jerks with their perfectly fake smiles trying to be nice to everyone, when it reality they won't remember your name in an hour. It sickens me really.
Is this what the world has come to?! God, I can't wait for the day when I can finally meet a person who's not as shallow as these douches. I jus- "Hey Caroline!" Is that my name? Wait... Yes, yes it is. Oh. My. God... I know that voice! Nobody could forget that voice. Not even me, and I can't even remember what I ate for dinner last night.
Turning around, I came face to face with the dazzling green eyes of my best friend.
"Harry!"
