I was restless the whole class, every little noise seemed unnerving somehow. I could barely pay attention to the teacher, but I tried to focus on whatewer was written on the board with everything I had. The most important thing now is to calm down, maybe Mack isn't that bad, I shouldn't immediatley assume bad things about her, if she likes to work out it's only natural that she will have muscles, it doesn't make her aggressive. Right...? Okay Charlotte calm down, you are not a kid anymore who is scared of everything and judjes everyone based on their looks. I don't even know any hockey players, maybe the thing between hockey players and figure skaters isn't too bad afterall. Maybe I'm overreacting again like I always do, take a deep breath, breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out. Don't let them see your stupid fears!
I was pulled out of my thoughts and self-sooting attempts by the ringing bell. I put my stuff in my bag and I hoped that the locker room drama won't be a lot worse because of the new student. The next class is P.E, it always leads to drama, I'm used to the suffocating smell of thousands of deodorants and the mean girls teasing eachother or me. I rushed to the locker to get my old gym bag covered with sequins, it looks quite good, and it is easier than I thought, but I have to be careful, because I cut myself with it once. Who would have thought sequins could be dangerous? It is crowded, everyone wants to get their gym bags as fast as they can, it's not like the girls were in a hurry to do P.E, they just wanted to play with their hair for a long time and dress at a snail's pace, while complaining about how difficult the class is. The guys are in a hurry, a few of them likes to mess around, but most of them likes P.E. My friends are by my side making the situation less uncomfortable. I finally get to the rickety thing, grab two gym bags and sprint out of the classroom, with Aelita behind me, because I have her stuff too.
he smell of the locker room hits me before even opening the door, I look at my friend and go inside. More people are already inside, but the new girls isn't here yet. I walk toward a bench, but before I could put my things down Courtney clears her throat and she looks at me contemptuously from under her tons of makeup.
"Sorry I want to sit here today" She starts talking in a high-pithched voice "and I don't want to share a spot with someone like you" She said, emhasizing the someone like you part.
"I'm sorry why don't you go to another bench? I got here before you" I said trying to stay calm.
"Me? Who cares you got here befor me? You can't even talk to people! Go the North Pole, nobody needs you here anyways!" She smiled at me.
"I can talk to people, just not someone like you"
"Darling, your crazy little friends don't count, get lost!" I could hear some pity in her voice.
I didn't move, I knew it was a waste of time, but unlike her I can change clothes quickly. I just wanted to sit down, I don't understand why she had to nag me about it. The next thing I knew she slapped me. I looked around to find another bench, all eyes were on us. The tense silence was broke by Aelita, who suddenly came up from behind me and swung her back on her shoulder with such a force that she pushed the shocked Courtney in a sitting position. After a sarcastic apology we ended up changing beside Mack, I have no idea when she came in. I put my things down and smiled at my savior, who rolled her grey eyes and gave me a half-smile. We don't have P.E uniforms, I wear a random grey T-shirt and the girl beside me wears a death metal T-shirt.
"Hit back next time, she won't fight with you, she might break her nails, if she does" Says Aelita.
"They hate me enough, but fine, I will hit back" I promise.
"Is every girl that slutty here?" Mack speaks out from behind me.
Oh shit I forgot she was here. This is bad, we ignored her, I wouldn't want to piss her off, if she calls the popular girls sl*tty. My stomach hurts, but I know I have to answer her.
"Mostly, but it's not a good idea to call them that, or to talk to us, if you want to fit in" I say to the blue haired girl, who is still topless.
"There are mall rats, normal girls, and us. That's it"
"Why do you talk about us like that? Are you jelous?" Emma asked.
"Oh, sure, I'm dying of jelousy" Aelita said in a sarcastic tone.
"Jelous of what? Silicone tits? Skinny figure? Your lacy underwear, or the dumb boys you wear it for?" Mack said looking into her eyes.
"I'm not jelous..."
"Oh shut up new girl!" She answerd.
"Oh please, look at yourself, disgusting" Courtney said.
"Honey, abs ony look good on boys. Did no one tell you?" Betty spoke up.
"I'm not surprised you're agressive, you don't even look like a girl, your life must be miserable, and for the record these are real." Luna said pointing at her chest.
"If you say so" Said Mack.
At first glance it looked like she didn't care, but her hands clenched into fists for a second. Maybe she isn't so bad afterall, she is just brutally honest.
"Sorry, I forgot to ask your names" She turned to us. All three of as tied our shoes by know. "What's your name?"
"I'm Charlotte" I held out my hand and she immediatley shook it.
"Aelita"
"Interesting names, I will look for the normal girls at school" She said and left the locker room.
I just stood there dumbfounded, I honestly don't know what to think about this girl, except that she's terribly honest. At least she doesn't hate me yet, I survived the first ordeal and that's all that matters right now.
Sorry for the long wait! I've been busy and lost motivation. You won't have to wait that long for the next episode. I put it in mature rating, just in case (it has a word Tapas doesn't like, I think)
Charlotte loved ice ever since she was a little girl. She is a figure skater, she loves the sport, but something is just not right. She feels so lonley. She only has three friends, but one day his life starts to change complietly. A new girl arrives to her class. They are complete opposites. That out-spoken, masculine girl makes her feel things she never felt before and makes her question how well she knows herself.
