5:44 AM - Wednesday 2nd September - 3 Hours Before College





The weather was as miserable as the sinful girl walking in it who had her hands cupped together over her mouth trying to get just one spark of a flame to leap out of the lighter, all for the sake of one poisionious stick but she needed it. Like hell did she need it. She cursed under her breath and crossed the road to a bus stop, she didn't look even once but under the dim light of a flickering street lamp, she wouldn't have seen much anyway and so what if she got hit? She sighed and felt a swarm of relief flush over her as she felt the lighter between her hand rush with heat so quickly the tips of her fingers were lightly burnt but she just chuckled and smiled, pushing the lighter away into the pocket of her over-sized jacket and putting her newly lit cigarette between her fingers as to allow herself to take a long, reassuring drag. She hated her job, it couldn't have been more unpleasant and shameful unless she point blank became a prostitute and full on fucked everyone with money. She got treated like dirt at the club- not that she knew much different anyway. She smoked away at her cigarette inhaling every last breath of smoke like it'd save her life, upon sighting her bus- she tapped the cigarette once and then cast it aside pressing her heel into it before it rolled into a puddle of misery drops.

ImageThe bus journey felt a lot longer than it was, she stared glumly out the window with an expression of forlorn. She didn't want to go home and normally, she'd go straight to college and not bothered but there had been one two many drinks thrown down her that night and she definitely needed a shower and a change of clothes. The bus journey was only about twelve minutes long and as much as she wished it was quicker, she was it was longer too. The bus pulled up right next to her house and she stepped off with the most brief of 'thank you's and she stared at the house. The door was painted and peeling, the colour of Ivy as her Mother said but it reminded Bella more of ogres or baby faeces. She walked slowly up to the picket fence and opened the small swinging gate that once again, her Mother had left open and then she opened the door and headed inside the crumbling cottage trying not to look tired or weak. She made her way upstairs, avoiding all persons possible. She passed her Brother but he didn't bother her so she disappeared to her room and stripped off and stepped straight into the water savouring the sensation of scalding water against her shivering cold skin. She lathered shampoo in her hair and gave a sigh as she washed it all out and conditioned before stepping out of the shower and wrapping herself in a towel and catching her own eye in the mirror. She barely recognised what looked back at her, dark hair pressed back and stuck to her skin and her eyes wide and blue- make-up free for once and she sighed ruggedly and dried her face before gathering up her make-up and working very carefully dashing her lids with eye-liner and smoky grey shadows.

Make-up done, she voted to dry her hair and moisturize her skin. She walked back into her bedroom feeling like she was shrinking under all the deep purple walls and the heavy canopy. Her room was filled with different lights, candles and plants but it made her feel so small and hollow. She leaned under her bed to grab her hair dryer but screamed a certain curse word out of fury when she caught her toe on the bed post.

"Fuck!"

Image She hissed through her teeth as she sat on the floor sulking sourly. "Fuck are you fucking kidding me, such a fucking dumb fuck," She growled at herself but eventually she soothed herself and sat back down and calmly used her hair brush and her hair dryer and focused on styling her hair how she liked to, so it felt quite straight and silkily down the sides of her face. Hair and make-up complete, she got dressed and then sighed feeling just a bit more relaxed now she was ready for college and to face the day for what it was. Deciding she was ready, she fell onto her bed and sat with her legs crossed and she put some music on her iPod and sparked up a cigarette and she exhaled heavily before inhaling the thick tar fumes and she closed her eyes sighing softly, she hummed along to the music dancing with just her arms but she didn't get that into it, she was just unwinding and finding herself before she had to drag herself to college. She was half looking forward to seeing her friends but on another level was concerned to, there was always something going on with her friends and she wasn't sure if she could deal with it today but on a different point, she had no choice but to deal with it. She hoped everyone was okay but the truth was, the answer was probably no. First day of college, first day of the new life- something was bound to happen as sad as she found it, the odds were most definitely on.
