Your entire life was a shit-show and you knew it.

Went to juvie at fifteen, drinking, smoking, always fighting, always sneaking a curse word somehow, using drugs or whatever the hell you felt like doing that day. You pretty much hated everyone but then, there she was.

Laura Lee, the blonde girl who was never afraid to talk back to you even when no one dared to. You liked her, more than you wanted to admit so the only way to show it was teasing.

Such a cliché.

"Can you stop?" she says, grabbing your hand and pulling you into an empty classroom "If you get in another fight they'll kick you out of the team"
