2. I'd sell your soul to satan for a corn chip
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
"I was annoyed, fuming, irritated, and everything along those lines."
👑S E L E N E👑
Mondays are absolutely the worst. If you are a highschool student, you'd know. But Mondays on Rivendale Advanced High School are the worst among the worst.
Every Monday morning, we attend a simple program conducted by the principal. We have to be there at seven and sit for an hour listening to him talk for future events which probably happens after three months.
So here I am beside my brother and his best friend, Percy, yawning, drinking coffee. "Could you please drink silently." Percy, clearly annoyed, told me. There was no hint of request because he tends to command everyone he knows, it's in his nature. I hated him.
Percy is the President of the student council. He's like me and my brother, a straight A student. And he, like my twin brother, is obnoxious and bossy and literal sports jocks, which is no question how the two got along so well. Every time they hang out and I happen to be there, I feel like someone up there has got it in for me.
I ignored Percy and sipped my coffee loudly. I loved how annoyed he gets when I do that. Knowing that he'll probably grab my drink and throw it in the garbage, I drank faster.
"Okay. You may now proceed to your classes." I barely heard the rest as Percy pulled my drink away. Gaston eyed me suspiciously, "Could you stop annoying him, you know how he gets." Yeah, well everyone knew that Percy had a big head and a small heart. The worst combination a person can possibly get. And being a control freak was a plus.
"It's not my fault that he is a control freak." I scoffed, starting to feel annoyed.
"He never said it was." Percy returned and made the sarcastic remark. I rolled my eyes. I hated everything about him. He always treated me worse than everyone else.
I gave him my stink-eye which looked hot on me, by the way. Intimidatingly hot. "Nobody told you to get into everyone else's business, prude."
He glared, his blue eyes looked fierce with his glasses on. "Careful, Sarvine. I may be your brother's friend but if you as much cause such wreckage as last year, I'd be the first to put you down."
I turned on my heels after I shoved him hard. He didn't need to remind me of what happened last year. It was a bad year for me. Lots of mistakes and a series of unfortunate events happened.
I walked down on the corridors and went to my first period.
"He was annoying! This is the bane of me! He is always obnoxious, bossy, and prude." I went on, complaining about Percy to Kris and Valerie.
"You've got to admit, he's hella hot!" Kris giggled and drank from her frappe.
I cringed visibly, "Eww! If I had to choose between a smelly old sock and him, I'd pick the sock."
Valerie was about to speak when a voice interrupted her. "Well, clearly because you have a bad taste and no sense of decency."
I was annoyed, fuming, irritated, and everything along those lines. I turned around and on gritted teeth, I said, "I searched my bag, went through the files, studied the past, but I still couldn't remember when and where I asked your opinion, Cry baby."
He laughed, amused at my situation, "Oh, that was so funny. That's the best you've got, that's so low, Selene." At this point, my knuckles were turning white and I was really trying so hard to keep my fist from landing on his stupid face.
"If Satan offered me a corn chip for a soul, I'd sell yours." I took a bite from my sandwich, grabbed my milkshake and started walking away. That's when I heard him say, "cheap"
I grabbed him by his shirt. "Here's the thing, Stonebrook. Do not ever call me cheap or the next thing you see is my knife slashing your throat." And he had the guts to look at me in the eye and say, "try me."
I was swinging my arm when Gaston came in and saved the day! Hurrah! "Look, you guys need to stop. Selene, you're my sister and I love you but don't get yourself in trouble, and Percy, please stop, man. You're more responsible than this." I groaned. He was indeed right. If I got in trouble again, I'd have to go to Mr. Pettigrew, the counselor. I spent half of the school year in there, every Friday afternoon, 24 days, 48 hours. It sucked, his counseling never worked and I still have nightmares about his shiny bald head.
"Just tell your dickhead of a friend to mind his own goddamn business!" I left both of them and went to my locker.
If you were wondering how bad my life is, well, it's like Harry realizing that Hogwarts was never real and that it was just a dream.
'Selene, could you go down to the grocery and buy these.' I read the text mom sent as I reached my room. I had to take the bus today because my brother was being an annoying prick.
I groaned at my mother, 'Why can't Gaston do it? I'm in the middle of something important.'
'For Pete's sake, you have to stop what you're doing because I know it's not important. Besides, Gaston and Percy are studying in his room.' Percy's here?
'Percy's here?' I started to fume. Well, if he's here, then, I can't be here.
"Okay, I changed my mind. Oh! shit! I need money for this stuff." I face-palmed myself.
'I need money.'
'Obviously, just use your money for the meantime.' I hated using my money for stuff like this, I was and still am greedy.
'I can't. I don't have any.'
'Then, go borrow from your brother.' I groaned again. Borrow from him while Percy is in there. I debated whether I should use my own money or just endanger myself and borrow from him.
I sighed, went to my brother's room and knocked. "Gas! I need to borrow a few bucks from you. It's for the grocery."
The door swung open by none other than Percy. I continued to ignore his existence and went to my brother's desk. "Your brother's in the bathroom, shouldn't you wait for him."
"Can't, I'm trying to hurry." I rummages through his stuff and found his wallet.
"From what?"
"From you. Listen, tell my brother I borrowed a few bucks. Ta-ta." And I ran downstairs and left the house with my brother's car.
AUTHOR'S NOTE
Percy is in the game! Though, I still laugh whenever I type Gaston.
"No one's slick as Gaston..."
Anyways, if you read of the title from tumblr, I borrowed it without giving the owner credit cuz I dunno who she/he is.
Anyway, how was chapter 2?
