Dusk - Chapter One - Misery (Part Two)

   "Girls, I think we need to move. Carlie, put that dog down. Kate, are you ready? You guy's gonna be damn late." Sam is nagging again. All he knew was to nag, nag, and nag all day long.
   We shove our bags and get in Sam's car. It is a Mercedes Benz C111, actually, it is for my Mum, but now she's gone - up to heaven, it's all nose cancer's fault. Kate put her lipstick and mascara on, looking at a heart-shaped mirror Ben gave her on her birthday. Ben was her boyfriend, but they broke up after he found out Kate has another. Kate is the head of cheerleading team in our school, and she is definately popular. Unlike me, I rejected everyone who intends to woo me.
   The car skidded to a stop. I looked out of the windscreen. Two words in gigantic letters is printed in a banner : CRAWNELLE HIGH SCHOOL. Time for school. I opened the door, took my bag and waved goodbye to Sam. He is a doctor. Well, he works for Daslyn's Dad, a big man - the head department of the hospital down in Seattle.
   Daslyn and Jennifer waved at me. "Hey, Carlie Marine! Over here!" Daslyn shouted, full of enthusiasm. Some of the boys stared at Dazz, then at me, and that makes me blush. Dazz likes to call people in full names, and honestly, I do not like it. But that does not mean I do not like her, she is a really good friend. Almost everyone in this school like to be friends with her. Well, that's her, Daslyn Alarina.
   Jennifer hugged me. She has been doing this since the day we met. She must have hugged Dazz before I am here, though. She hugs everyone when she met them, well almost, but not the boys. We're all the best friends, and we're all seventeen. Kate is just a year younger than us, and seriously, I do not like her friends. They are kind of proudaholic. Anyway, Kate likes them - Brittany and Tiffany Conlay.
   Tiffany saw me. She elbow me on my hand so hard I feel a slight pain on my chest. Brittany followed her and asked me, "Where's our kid?" I know what they mean. I pointed to the Angsana tree where Kaitlyn sat. She is combing her hair again, unlike me who don't like to bother my hair or perhaps a makeover? No, I do not like to put make-ups on my face.
   The Conlays skipped beside Kate, and keep talking and talking with her. So Dazz, Jen and me decided to leave them alone and walked into class. We have our first class together, Trig. We took our books in the lockers, then head to the classroom.
