Blue’s POV
I always dreamt of having a loving family, but I guess the world is against that.
My name is Blue I am 17 years old and a senior in high school..yeah I’m probably sure you’re wondering a 17-year-old as a senior, I don’t mean to brag but I’m smart so I skipped a few classes.
Brrrr brrr brr
I rolled out of bed trying to turn off my annoying alarm but ended up falling out and bump my head but that’s life.
I look at the time and it’s 5:30 am, I know you’re probably wondering why I am up at this time well I happen to be the maid slush punching bag around here.
I tiptoe my way to the bathroom so I don’t wake my dad up it’s too early to receive any punches after I finish my business in the bathroom I make my way over to the kitchen to make breakfast for my parents before I leave for school.
As I grab the pan I hear the front door bang my heart starts to skip I turn around and meet my drug addict mom who is high fat 5:30 am in the morning.
" Mom are you hungry? I am about to make some pancakes” I say.
" Are you trying to poison me now? I always knew you hated me you ungrateful child” she said.
With that I find myself flying across the room from the smack I received. She looks at me with anger and makes her way towards the bedroom.
I try to stand up but I am in so much pain I decided to lay on the floor for a while not realizing I fell asleep.
I wake up to people screaming, I open my eyes to see my parents yelling at each other I try to escape them luckily for me I succeed, I make my way towards the bathroom to check for any bruises from the fall and I find a nasty bruise forming on the side of my head. I start to apply as much concealer as I can so people at school do not notice.
The journey to school is full of me wondering what my life would have been like if my sister was still around.
I missed her so much I feel so alone since she left, I end up shedding some tears without realizing; gosh you’re such a cry baby Blue I snickered.
I finally see an ugly building insight, don’t get me wrong I love school but could they paint it with some more bright colors I am sure that would encourage people to come to school..just saying.
I make my way to my locker without getting shoved by anyone; as I reach my locker something or more than someone bumps into me. I lift my head ready to attack whoever bumped into me only to find myself looking into the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen.
“Are you blind?” Says the boy with the beautiful eyes.
I take a minute to stay his face & damn God did take his time in making him I thought, before I could react he shoves me again & makes his way towards the door.
I sigh & curse at him in my head, how can someone so good looking be a jerk. I turn my attention back to my locker & open it.
I try to take my mind away from the mysteriously good looking guy.
“BLUE BLUEEEE BABY BLUEEEE” I hear someone call me out I turn around only to meet my super hyper best friend Olive.
Olive was the opposite of me but we have been best friends since middle school, She was already 18 & 5′4 making me taller than her a few inches she had beautiful long brown hair with amazing baby blue eyes whiles I had basic blond hair with green eyes. She is more social-able than I am.
“Are you even listening to me B?? I have been talking for about 5 minutes now”, I snap out of my thoughts as I hear Olive say that.
" Of course I was listening to Olly you were talking about how your little brother used up all the hot water this morning “I say.
" Good at last you listened to some part of it anyways I miss you,” she says.
" Olly you saw me two days ago,” I say.
" Exactly two days ago that’s so long, how are you? did they try it again this weekend? do you have any bruises? I still think we should go to the police” says Olly.
Olly is the only one who knows about my parents using me as their punching bag she always tells me to go to the police but despite everything they are still my parents.
I sigh and say “No Olly I’m good & can you stop being so loud about it everyone probably heard you” as I look around.
" I was not being loud you know, okay whatever let’s go to the class the bell will go off anytime soon” and with that, I turn around to close my locker and follow Olly through the crowded hallways. We make it on time before the teacher arrives.
The day was a blur nothing interesting happened, just the same going from class to class and listening to teachers complain about how much they hate teaching. They could just quit right but they prefer to stay and complain.
I make my way towards the car park in search of Olly, I see her by her car talking to some tall guy with brown hair I move closer to see what was going on.
Olly notices me and smiles and says ” Baby Blue this is Jake, Jake baby blue” .
I sigh and reach my hands to shake him and say “it’s just Blue”, which he finds amusing
" it’s just Jake too”, he says.
I nod and turn my head towards Olly.
" Okay Jake I will see you tomorrow & don’t forget to text me,” Olly says that so excited & winks at him he just nods and heads off.
I turn to Olly and say ″who is that” only to see her widely smiling and shakes her head and starts driving. Well, she has a lot of explanation to do cos that was just weird.
