reward+revenge

This was the day that I've never looked forward to. I cant believe that my parents had agreed to sell our house and bought an old, boring English mansion on the countryside of London.

I could never get my packing right - I was supposed to get ready with all my things 3 days ago, but all i did was lay in my bed while trying to soothe my full and pessimistic mind out. I planned to postpone our move by making everything go wrong but i was then stopped by my angry mom who threatened me by saying that i will be sleeping in the attic of our mansion, so i had no choice. But what am i supposed to do? i just cant let my parents move into an old mansion which they never checked out before, and plus the house had been neglected for 150 years! And how am i going to cope up with all those bloody english accent? How could i just leave all my friends behind, especially Andy, who had been my best friends since we were 4?

We finally arrived at the London airport, after our long and tiring 12 hours of non-stop flight, we were welcomed by the sight of a middle-aged lady who looks like Cruella De Vil named Barbara Jones. She owns the mansion. I had a hard time ignoring all those 2 British girl's icy stares, they had been following me all along, since they spotted me in the toilet. They had wavy, blonde hair, they were wearing pink, vintage puffy polkadot dresses and lacey socks. They were a little tiny compared to my height. I reckon they were also about my age. I was totally the opposite of them - i was wearing grey skintight jeans, a Black Veil Brides t-shirt, my studded black belt, my dirty converse shoes, and fingerless gloves. My hair was dyed black, i remember the time when i did it along with Andy 4 months ago. It had little blue and red streaks on the bangs, which was side-swept and covering one section of my eye. I had a lip ring, i was wearing my headphones, and my eyes were dark as i never left home without wearing eyeliner. I was fixing my hair and re-applying my eyeliner when they saw me and stared in a fully-disgusted way. I stared back in a mean look. They started whispering to each other, and i stood there thinking to myself "here it goes again...". That was totally unexpected! I dont like England at all. Now my only wish is that those two girls arent it the same school as i am.

I stared at our mansion in awe, it doesnt look like it did on my imagination. It was clean, large, and elegant, but i think it might be a little too fancy for my taste. Barbara led me to my room, and two butlers tagged along behind us with all my things. My door was bright, glossy red in color. it had a really big window with long, black Fleur de Lis prints on bright red curtains. There was a really big multi-colored chandelier hanging over the ceiling. I went in, and i was shocked to see a really large bed with red and black veil mosquito net hanging over. And the walls were painted white with little black skulls, and also a two big pictures of me and Andy. There was also a dressing table which was painted with the same color as my door. i unpacked all my clothes and things, and put them into the rightful place. I really like my room, it was all i ever wanted. i just wish Andy was here with me goofing off and posing weirdly. I took a bath and went directly to bed as i dont feel like eating anymore. I woke up at 3am in the morning. I checked my phone and i received 4 messages and 3 missed calls from Andy. I miss him really, really badly, he had sent me a picture of the both of us that made me break down. i couldnt help it, i really miss being with them all.

It had been 3 weeks since we left Ohio, and this was also the first day of my new school, I dressed up like i did everyday. I took a look at my mirror and sighed really loudly.i kept on thinking " i am 14, I hate skirts and my only close friend is a guy," What is actually wrong with the way i dress up that made those two girls look at me disgustingly? Was it my lip ring, my hair or my makeup? But i thought deeply and made a mental note - just because those two brats looked at me that way it still doesnt mean that i did something wrong. Mom was yelling downstairs, so i grabbed my backpack and went downstairs to leave for school. My brother and sister dressed up like they always used to too. When i arrived at school, my biggest fear was waiting for me. Those two brats from the airport was actually in my school, and if that wasnt terrible enough, they were also in my grade and class too! They were hanging out in the lockers talking snottily to each other when they spotted me and dropped their chins. they started staring at me again, with their eyes overwhelmed with jealousy. They were not liked by everyone tough, they spoke loudly and everyone near them were putting up an annoyed look. I hurried to my locker and unloaded my things. I was in my locker again checking my phone at our class break, when one of them slammed by locker door and gave me a "mean hello" look. She was really short and she wore heels. She asked me what was i doing and actually grabbed my iphone away violently. I was about to slap her when she said something that made me freeze in my tracks. She actually went over Andy's pictures and she said she wants him. I was burning inside, then i calmed down and explained that he was still back there in Ohio. She smirked and walked away. I would never let that happen! There is no way that my best friend is gonna mingle with somekind of drag queen like her.

Another 3 weeks passed and i got another surprise. Andy came to visit, and he was staying until first semester ends. I was really happy that i jumped around our living room and knocked down a pot. He came in at that very time and i ran and hugged him. He stayed at the guest room and finally we could be reunited again. When we went back to school, the whole hallway was staring. around 6 people had approached and asked if we were twins. It all was great when those two brats came again and one of them started flirting with Andy. I learnt that their names are Meredith Jenner and Helena Mckinley. Meredith is the one who likes Andy. Meredith started twirling her hair around her fingers, giggling and drooling all over Andy. I have to tell the truth, it was kinda funny, i was about to giggle when he was so disgusted that he grabbed me on the arm and dragged me to class together. I sat on his left and Meredith sat on his right. She obviously wont stop trying to get Andy, but she just needs to remember that she still needs to walk over my dead body. She's NEVER going to get my best friend. When lunch came we sat together, AND THEN AGAIN, Meredith came and sat beside Andy. She locked her arm around Andy's and he couldnt go anywhere.

Meredith did that every single day of the week. What pissed me off the most is that ANDY, yes ANDY, started to like her! After all these 10 years, i couldnt believe that he could betray me like this! I ignored him all along even tough we live in the same house. He tried to apologize to me, but i wouldnt listen. that was the biggest insult i've ever gotten in my whole life, and Andy's apologies doesnt even seem real to me.I sat alone at lunch, i couldnt look at Meredith hugging my best friend's neck. Until one night, i was staying up late doing my homework when he burst out into my study room and locked the door. He begged for my apology on hes knees and i just remembered of why i suffered this much. I bust into tears and i started telling him that i really like him, i miss him and i want him back. I sound stupid, i cant even believe that im telling him things that i've never even exposed to myself. He just stood there, surprised and shocked and then he slowly started to smile. He said he missed when we were like siblings, so protective, close and faithful to each other. He promised that he will ignore her.

Meredith has been puling Andy everywhere she goes, when Andy started approaching me or whatever she will retreat Andy back to her sight. Andy cant go away from her. I lost it looked for her. i thumped my feet really loudly at the ground, but when i found her she wasnt with Andy. She was combing her hair and she was talking snottily, AGAIN, to Helena. I yelled at her for about 10 minutes, and she couldnt say anything back to me, but she called me the spawn of satan. How is she even serious while saying that? i am 100% SATANIC-FREE. She came to Andy and pulled him again. I grabbed Andy back, well this time we're going physical. Well not to brag, but she is easy to beat, She is like 4"8 when im like 5"7. My final act is when i kept her head down and dumped her on a big trash can on the cafeteria. Everyone booed her off and she disappeared out of my sight. Then i just found myself in the principal's office, and i am almost suspended. I dont even know why i had the guts to play off with trash, but then i was still happy that Meredith could learn something from what she did.
