|[ One Down, The Rest Of The Female Population To Go ]|

[Eh, a fucked up thing I wrote. I was less than half way through when I lost my words. So, it turned out as just a sad excuse for words on the internet.]

--------------------------------------------------------


She’ll sit and wait for you, so innocent
But she’ll never know your true intent
You’ll break her heart, snap it in two
You can’t even say “I Love You, Too.”

Tell yourself you aren’t taking advantage
But you’re the reason she’s standing on a ledge
Forced to jump, but glad for impact
You’re just a cover, just an act

Afterwards you just run, just go
Stole her heart, so you have proof to show
She’s just the first to have you break her heart
You put a mark on your fucked-up chart

Did you plan on lying this long?
She doesn’t even know what’s wrong.
How can you just kiss so-and-so now?
She needs to learn to cheat, I’m showing her how.

He’s just a heartbreaker, waiting to win
I’m telling her, “Don’t let him in.”
She’s falling now deeper and deeper
Cause’ he’s the son of the grim reaper

Afterwards you just run, just go
Stole her heart, so you have proof to show
She’s just the first to have you break her heart
You put a mark on your fucked-up chart

Pretend you’ve done nothing bad
I know all the girls you’ve had
But I’ve sinned more than you ever will
I guess I’m the best heartbreaker still

|[ Boy Gets Girl, The Newest Fairytale ]|

[This is about a boy who is so in love with a girl, who still believes in fairytales. She never finds out, of course, and kills herself when she finds out her boyfriend doesn't love her. Again, I don't know who these people are... it's fictional, just a fairytale.]

----------------------------------------------------


You are my damsel in distress
And I can’t kiss you unless
I save you from the tall tower
By the night’s twelfth hour
But now I can only sit under the vast sky
Knowing you don’t think I’m the right guy

These fairytales
Have long grown stale
Three pigs and a princess
And her magical dress
They said dreams come true
But if they did I’d have you

You think he’ll bring you
To a fictitious place
But he’s always too high
To even know your face
I’ll just watch you two
From the other side of the door
Knowing we could’ve
Had something more

These fairytales
Have long grown stale
Three pigs and a princess
And her magical dress
They said dreams come true
But if they did I’d have you

Keep believing in a fictional story
You’ll end up with neither him nor me
The smell of suicide fills the air
Too bad, life’s not fair
The memory of you I sold
As your body grows cold

These fairytales
Have long grown stale
Three pigs and a princess
And her magical dress
They said dreams come true
But if they did I'd have you

|[ Seal It With A Smile ]|

[Just a poem I wrote a while ago.]
-----------------------------------------

A heart of glass shatters, and so does a heart of stone
It falls to pieces with no way to get a loan
Sit with a friend and talk for a while
Pretend you’re okay and seal it with a smile

Only some friends will always care
They’ll pick up the pieces and always be there
Sit with a friend and talk for a while
Pretend you’re okay and seal it with a smile

Lost souls are just bumps on the road to death
When all is done, there’s nothing left
Sit with a friend and talk for a while
Pretend you’re okay and seal it with a smile

You show a smile, but your eyes hold sorrow
Cry yourself to sleep, and hope there’s no tomorrow
Sit with a friend and talk for a while
Pretend you’re okay and seal it with a smile

|[ Venom ]|

[This is just about a girl and her abusive boyfriend. It's not my family and I don't know who the girl is. I just wrote the poem.]

-----------------------------

Your words sting like venom
Your lips taste like blood
Your heart’s cold as stone
Kill me, you could

My lips say “I’m sorry.”
My heart knows your not
My feet want to run
If I do I’ll be shot

My father was the same
My mother’s now dead
He pointed his gun and shot her
Six times in the head

I need a Superman
To see this through
But there’s no hero
To save me from you.

|[ Gone For The Winter ]|

[I started this poem a while ago, but I got stuck in a fork after the second stanza. So this is all I have.]

------------------------------

Screams and sobs are all you hear
We always dreamed of a life freer
Cracked mirrors, all our dreams lost
The memories will melt the winter frost

A world bleached white
Has lost all that’s right
I paid the full cost
Please melt the winter frost

|[ Take It, Or Leave It ]|

I can never say what I think
I’ll give you a smile, a cute little wink
If you want a girl, with me don’t start
I’ll chew you up, and break your heart

I’ll tell you to leave, while I hope you say no
I always try to run, but I have nowhere to go
I want to be pressed on a wall, and kissed in the rain
I’m not very interesting, so I pretend I’m insane

I want to be the girl boys write songs about
I’ll put on a smile, when all I want is to shout
I will start a fight after I long for your kiss
I’m the kind of girl, boys never miss

I’ll rock out and mosh, while I wear stilettos
I want to sit in the crowd and watch you play at rock shows
I hope to die, but I’m too afraid to cut
I always want something, but I never know what

I’m so simple, but yet so complex
I want your gifts, just don’t hand me some checks
All night I wait for you by the door
I’ll pretend I don’t care when I see you and your whore

I want to be the girl boys write songs about
I’ll put on a smile, when all I want is to shout
I will start a fight after I long for your kiss
I’m the kind of girl, boys never miss

I was born a failure; I’ll always be that way
You asked what I wanted; this is all I can say
It’s okay if you “just want to be friends with me.”
Whatever, I’m fine. I really do agree.

{((Sinister Thoughts))}i{((Part 5))}

[Here's the next part. And keep in mind that this is my first swing at a romance scene, so don't remind me how bad it is. I already know that.]
--------------------------------------------------------------
“Damn, ditched and the band sucks ass.” Sinister said with a sigh.
“They’re not the best band, but at least they are playing.” An anonymous voice behind Sinister said.
Her head whipped around, causing Sinister to come face to face with Jake. Their faces mere inches apart.
“Urgh, I’m not sitting here anymore. This music and watching Billie and Riley flirt is making me sick.” Sin said, slowly moving her head away.
“Well, I wouldn’t recommend going upstairs either. Unless of course you want to watch my sis and Kayleb try to hide from each other while stealing glances at the same time. Or better, watch Reesa and whats-his-face, Danny, bite each other’s tongue out.” He told her, the dripping with sarcasm.
“Then how about we go sit on the porch.” Sinister suggested.
Whoa, how did Jake and I become a we? We were separate people before. AGH! There goes the “we” again!’ Sinister thought, ‘but what is even stranger, is that he didn’t say anything.
Together Sinister and Jake walked to the outside of the house to the back porch. It was a little quieter there. Sinister looked up at the stars in he navy blue sky. In silence, the two, without knowing it, had created a very romantic aura surrounding them. But Jake broke the moment by beginning a conversation between the two.
Somehow they ended up sharing everything with each other. All the things they never knew about the other. All the small things, that matter more than most think. Suddenly, the silence returned to the two, sitting side-by-side. Jake broke the silence again. Something, though, was different.
“Sinister…” Jake said, hesitantly.
“Hm-”
Before she was able to finish her word, lips came crashing onto Sin’s. She felt Jake’s warm hand gently cup her cheek, countering the cold metal of the lip-ring to the left of his bottom lip. As Sinister replied to the kiss, the kiss became more and more passionate.
“You’re Charrette’s brother… We can’t…” Sinister said, pulling away and gasping for breath.
“But- don’t pull a Cinderella on me, Sin.” Jake said, grabbing Sinister’s arm to stop her from getting away.
“Sorry, but I’ve got to go Prince Charming.”
She pulled her arm out of his grasp and headed to the basement of the house. There she found Billie, slightly tipsy, still flirting with Riley. Pulling her away, Sinister dragged Billie upstairs to find Charrette. Kayleb and Charrette had begun to talk, finally. Though, this was only because both were dead drunk. When they’re sober, they’re too much in love, and too shy for their own good, to talk to each other. Billie hoisted her up; one of Charr’s arms was draped around Billie’s neck.
Sinister headed over to the couch that was occupied by a Reesa, nearly shirtless, and a Danny sucking at her neck.
“Okay! Time to go, Reesa!” Sinister shouted, attempting to look away.
“Owwie, Sinister’s hurting my ears!” Reesa whined, lightly pushing Danny off.
“Whoa, how many cups of beer did you have?” Billie asked, now behind Sin.
“Um…” Reesa counted over her set of ten fingers over ten times.
“Alright, time to go.” Sinister repeated, hoisting Reesa’s arm over her neck and pulling Reesa’s shirt back down.
Sinister placed Reesa next to Billie, who was squished in the back of the corvette, with Charrette. Sinister started up the car and headed back to Charrette’s house.
Wow, long-’ Sinister’s train of thought was interrupted by Billie.
“Umm… Sinister, we’re here…” Billie hinted, hesitantly.
“Oh, yeah...”
Sinister climbed out of the car and helped Billie carry Reesa and Charrette into the house. Unfortunately, carrying two dead drunk people is not easy. Trying to stand up straight, Sinister unlocked the house’s door with the key from Charrette’s pocket. As soon as they closed the door and made their way over to the living room couch, all four collapsed onto either the floor or couch. In the jumbled up pile, the girls drifted off to dreamland.
"Mm… I want the Coke, not the Pepsi… Not the-”
Sinister awoke with a startle. The front door slamming had woken her up. A few feet away from her head, lay her cell phone that flashed two-thirty in the morning. After removing the various limbs draping over her and rubbing her tired eyes, she stood and made her way over to the front door. There stood an extremely tired Jake.
“We need to talk.” Sinister said, dragging Jake back out of the house and closed the door, unlocked.

{((Sinister Thoughts))}i{((Part 4))}

[Well, this one is a little bit longer, or average sized, to make up for the shortness of part 3. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention in the first one... this stoy is:
RATED: Teen, for semi-adult situation and vulgar language
So enjoy... and comment!]

-----------------------------------------------------------------

After driving for a few minutes, the four girls reached the heaven to food. In the car, on the way to the store, Charrette and Reesa had already called carts. The two jumped out of the car and right into their own carts. Sinister locked her car and followed Billie toward the two girls sitting in their carts.

“To the store!” Charrette and Reesa shouted, striking dramatic poses, pointing to the store with one hand.

Sin and Billie looked at each other briefly before they ran off, Sin pushing Charrette and Billie pushing Reesa, this earned various curses from the two cart-girls. The four rushed into the store, splitting up into different aisles. Many boxes of Pop-Tarts were shoveled into the cart of Charrette and Sinister.

“Get the s’mores box!” Charrette shouted.

Sinister pushed Charr, running. Charrette ran her hand along the aisle of Pop-Tarts and other snacks, dragging them into the cart with her. Random shrieks and curses could be heard from the aisle next to them. From the other end of the aisle Billie, pushing Reesa, came running down, their cart nearly full.
“To the frozen goods!” Billie exclaimed, pushing Reesa and leading Sinister’s cart.

“Hey! That was my line!” Charrette retaliated.

Again they ran down the aisle opening the freezer doors and throwing random items at either Charrette or Reesa, the person in their cart. Eggo waffles and various flavors of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream were only a couple of the things shoveled into the carts.

“Ready?” Charr asked, cramped in with the many snacks.

“Hmm…” Sinister pushed in some packages of Ramen, “I’m pretty much set for my food.”

“Okay. Wait, we’re shopping for food for MY house, right?” Charrette asked confused, she could be a little dense at times.

“Yep,” Sin said smiling, as Billie and Reesa broke out in fits of laughter.

“Agh, now my brain hurts! Whatever…” Charrette muttered, rubbing her temples.

Unfortunately, the market’s manager made Charrette and Reesa get out of the carts because he wouldn’t let them take the food until they got out. After causing quite a scene and a mini debate the two girls emerged from their seats in the grocery carts.

“That fucking manager, the son of a bitch!”

Reesa had been ranting on about how much she hated “that fucking manager.” Most people would think she
just really liked him, but Sinister, Charrette, and Billie knew the truth. When Reesa rants on about hating someone, she really does hate them. When she likes a guy, she’ll end up flirting with him. The IHOP incident is an example.

The girls had been at Charrette’s house for a little while now. They had finished watching the heart-throb, Jack Skellington, and decided to get dressed for the party. Jake and his friends had left to get to the party a little early. Together, the girls made their way upstairs to Charr’s room. Out of one of her many drawers, Charrette pulled out some make up. Basically, it was just some different colors of eye liner and some lip-stick/lip gloss.

“Okay…hmm… here it is! Sinister, you are wearing these clothes!” Reesa said, pulling out a shirt and some jeans out of the clothes bag she left a Charr’s earlier that day.

“No way! There is no chance of me wearing that!” Sinister replied.

After ten, or so, minutes Sin walked into Charrette’s bathroom. A few frustrated groans were heard before Sinister came out. She was wearing a tight, short, and low-cut black wife beater. Three words you don’t use to describe Sin’s clothing. Unless they are attached to un, not, and never. But of course… these are Reesa’s clothes. And the jeans Sinister was wearing were tight and extremely low-rise, showing off her black, curved barbell belly-button piercing.

“Oh my god! It’s perfect, absolutely perfect!” Reesa called out as Sinister walked out.

Sinister simply grumbled, rolled her eyes, and grabbed a stick of black eye liner and a stick of red. She lined her eyes, thickly, with the black eye liner and smudged some red at the bottom and top of her eye lids. This made a perfect match to the red letters, on the black wife beater, spelling out MASSACRE across it.

After about one more hour it was time to go to the party. Luckily, everyone was dressed and ready. Reesa was wearing a fitted red Warning logo Green Day shirt, making her dark blonde hair seem brighter. Charrette was wearing a Clandestine sunrise hooded shirt. Billie wore a tight grey Corpse Bride tee over a plain black long-sleeve shirt. Sinister grabbed her black hoodie, that Charrette had been borrowing for a little while, that was covered in random zippers. She also slipped on her red guitar pick necklace as they all walked toward Sinister’s car.

It was only a couple of minutes later that they had begun to drive to the party, while they sang along to The Academy Is. As they turned the corner, Pink Floyd could be heard blasting down the street.

“Here we are,” Billie said, stating the obvious.

Before Sinister could even turn off the engine, Charrette and Reesa had already leaped out of the car. Both headed to the party in search of someone. Behind the two, walked Sinister and Billie. Neither had a guy they NEEDED to see or a particular reason to be at the party. Well, besides friends and music.

“Let’s just stick together and listen to the band play.” Billie stated.

“Good idea,” Sinister agreed, linking arms with Billie.

Still lined at the arms, the two headed to the couch in the house’s basement. The band playing all night, Compromised Heartache, sucked. It was just Sinister’s luck that right then something, or someone, caught Billie’s eye.

“Sin, is that… Riley?!” Billie asked, squinting at a boy across the room with extremely dark red hair, nearly dark brown and hazel eyes covered by black-rimmed emo glasses; that were nearly identical to the black-and-white-rimmed ones Billie wore.

“Umm…” Sin squinted also, “yep.”

“Bye Sin, sorry for leaving you.”

“It’s fine. Go fuck your lover.”

With that command Billie ran off toward Riley and they began talking. Ever since they worked together on a lab for chemistry, they’ve been an unofficial couple. As in they both know the other likes them back, but they both are still afraid of being rejected.

{((Sinister Thoughts))}i{((Part 3))}

[Um... part 3 is out. It's really short, but oh well.]
---------------------------------------------------------

“That was fun! Though, we’ll never be able to go to another IHOP for the rest of our lives!” Charrette said, laughing loudly.

“But what should we do now?” Billie asked as she leaned against the side door of Sinister’s corvette.

“Oh My God! Like we should like go to like the like mall!” Reesa said in her fake Paris Hilton voice.

Sinister, Billie, and Charrette simply laughed and agreed as they got into the black corvette. The mall they went to was the one that had the biggest FYE and Borders and had a Hot Topic because that was the only slightly punk store all the punk haters hadn’t destroyed… yet. The four girls had a rule when they went to the mall. It was that the person who drove them to the mall picked which store they went to first, or picked the person who would pick the store.
“Newbury Comics!” Sinister said, replying to the unasked question.

The four girls headed off to Newbury Comics, or the giant grey store in their mall. In the back of the store was nearly every CD in any genre of rock/emo/screamo/punk that had ever been released. The girls began to separate into the different aisles with the CD they were looking for. Billie stayed with Sinister because she didn’t need to find a CD.

“I need to get another Take This To Your Grave because mine ran away into some corner of my room.” Sinister told Billie as she looked through the ‘F’ section for Fall Out Boy.

“Found it!” Billie declared as she pulled out the blue covered CD.

“Found what?”

Quickly, Billie and Sinister spun around. There stood a guy about their age. He looked around a year older. He had short black hair that fell messily, slightly, over his eyes. His eyes were an incredible sapphire blue that felt like they were sucking Sinister in when she looked into them.

“Hey Jake, I thought you were staying at home to practice with the guys?”

This made Jake turn around; behind him stood Charr. Jake was Charrette’s older brother by a year. Though, he looked different from her because he had black hair like their father, while she had red hair like their mother. The only physical feature they shared was their mother’s sapphire blue eyes. Also Jake had a passion for music. ‘The guys’ or his friends and he had started a band called Blind Sided, and he played lead guitar and sang back-up vocals. But Charrette didn’t like to hang out with his friends because she had a massive crush on one of them. And she would get incredibly nervous when she saw him.

“Yeah, but Kayleb wanted me to get a CD for him and couldn’t come out himself.” Jake replied, putting emphasis on Kayleb’s name.

Unfortunately, he knew this.

“Well, gotta get back to practice.” He said as he headed off in the direction of the cash register.

“So, did you get the CD you were looking for?” Reesa asked, rejoining the girls.

“Yep.” Sinister said holding up Take This To Your Grave.

“Mhmm.” Charrette also replied as she held up Almost Here by The Academy Is…

The girls started to head off to the cash register also.

“To what store now?” Billie asked as she and the other three stood waiting in line to pay.

“Hm… how about we go to Hot Topic?” Reesa requested.

“Okay, just wait we have to pay.” Sin and Charrette said together, as they took out their money and traded it for change.

Together the girls headed off toward the escalator. They stepped in, rising to the second level of the mall, which had the Hot Topic. As they walked toward the store they began talking about what they were planning to do next week, new CDs coming out, new DVDs, and anything else they could think of.
After a few more hours they were finished with their shopping. Their arms had a few shopping bags strung on them, and their wallets were a lot thinner. Charr, Reesa, Billie, and Sinister had everything they could ever need for the party that night.

“To my house!” Charrette said as the four girls loaded their bags into the corvette’s trunk.

“No, to the grocery store! I’m not staying in a house with no food for nearly six hours!” Sinister said, the other two agreeing with her.

“Oh yeah… then, to the grocery store!”

{((Sinister Thoughts))}i{((Part 2))}

[Well, here's the second part... again, enjoy and comment!]
---------------------------------------------------------
She grabbed her black messenger bag, which was covered in a few band pins. Her messenger bag carried everything she’d ever need, that didn’t fit in her hoodie pockets. She slipped her cell phone into the black shoulder bag and took out her keys. Before she left, Sinister went into the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of water out of the refrigerator. She would have made herself coffee, but Reesa, Charrette, and Billie would call her again.

Leisurely, she walked out of the light grey house and locked the door. Sinister’s messenger bag swung lightly, hitting her leg as she headed toward her black corvette. It was her baby and her mom’s car when she was younger. But she had updated it a bit by installing a CD player.

She drove down one of the newly cemented streets, singing ‘To Charrette’s House We Go!’. Charrette’s house was one of the biggest houses you would ever see. Over the hill, which led to Charr’s house, she began to see the grey roof leading to the sea-foam green house, her destination. Sinister began to pull up to the house when two blurs ran to her car, screaming. Billie walked leisurely behind the blurs, also known as Charrette and Reesa.

“I ate the last Pop-Tart, so only coffee was left…” Billie told her before Sin could ask.

Though Charr’s family was extremely rich, the only in the house, that was edible for seventeen year old girls, was Pop-Tarts and coffee. They didn’t even have wine or beer,

“Go! Go! Go!” Charr shouted at Billie.

“Coming, coming…” Billie said, nonchalantly.

After about a minute more, Billie finally reached the car and climbed in. The only good part about Charr and Reesa not waiting to get into the car was, it would save Sin the two seconds it would take to start the car… two seconds less spent in a car with two coffee-high girls screaming “IHOP! IHOP!”

With a last rumble the engine shut off and Project: I-Fucking-HOP, as named by Charrette began.

“Give me food!” Reesa screamed at the top of her lungs, which was very loud.

“PANCAKES!” shrieked Charrette nearly doubling the noise of Reesa.

Billie and Sinister slowly walked in behind the ruckus, C&R. Loudly, Charr and Reesa sat down at a random booth, with some stares from waitresses, and shouted, in French repeatedly, “Garcon! Garcon!”

“Um… what would you… um… like to order?” the waitress said trembling, she was terrified.

She must be new,’ thought Sinister, ‘I feel bad for her…

Apparently Reesa and Charrette had discovered this too. So they recoiled and calmed down… yeah right. Billie and Sin glanced at each other with sinister smirks plastered on their faces. They couldn’t let Reesa and Charrette have all the fun!

“Pancakes!” all four shouted.

Hand fulls of salt and pepper were pelted at the poor girl as she ran back to the kitchen. There were even a few squirts of mustard that followed, thanks to Charrette.

“What?! I don’t like mustard… and besides, if it hit her it would match her blue and yellow uniform.” She replied to the smiles and rolling eyes shot in her direction.

Bored, Reesa looked around spotting her perfect eye candy. Billie, Sinister, and Charrette noticed her eyes staring at a guy sitting at the counter.

“Didn’t you just break up with Dylan on Tuesday, Reesa?” Sinister, rolling her eyes, asked her.

“Mhmm…” Reesa said as she got up and began to walk toward the counter.

“Go get some, Reesa!” Charr shouted after her.

Sinister and Billie laughed, but Reesa just looked back at them with a quick and playful wink. She walked over and sat by him. Sin overheard that his name was Danny, he was a goner. Reesa had a new boyfriend just about every other week. Any guy that stared into her emerald green eyes for too long and watched her flick her wavy dirty blonde hair, got stuck in her boy trap. Supposedly, Reesa was the prettiest out of the four girls. Charrette had rusty red locks that fell down in mild curls, almost one inch longer than Reesa’s hair, which fell down to bust length. Though, Charrette had some of the deepest sapphire eyes. Billie had mild brown hair that was only about and inch about her shoulders. Most of her hair fell to one side, but it never covered her comforting honey brown eyes. Sinister had ebony black hair, which strangely enough faded from black to midnight blue at the tips of her hair. Her dark black bangs always covered one of her ice blue eyes, causing her to always have to flick them to the side.

I hope Reesa will be okay,’ all of the remaining girls thought, ‘she always gets broken up inside when she and her boyfriends split.

Reesa flirted and flirted with Danny, who had dark brown hair with a silver streak. The streak went perfectly with his nearly silver eyes. By the look of his smiles, he had fallen into Reesa’s trap. Unfortunately the pancakes finally arrived, and the poor girl practically ran away after placing the pile of pancakes on the table.

“How about you join me and my friends, Danny..” Reesa said to him, nodding in the direction of the three girls.

"If you wouldn’t mind…” he replied, looking at her innocently through his black guylinered eyes.

“Oh, come on!” Reesa said with a laugh as she pulled him by the arm over to the table.

Hi Danny, I’m Billie! That’s Sinister and Charrette.” Billie said pointing at the person as she said their name.

The girls… and boy talked about nearly everything.

“So, you like AFI?” Sin asked as she noticed his black AFI shirt, that matched his black jeans.

"Yeah, they’re really- oh, wait…” Danny replied as he picked up his cell phone, which had begun to ring.

After a few “Yeah, yeah…”s and “Whatever…”s he told the girls he had to go.

“Well, there’s this party…” Reesa said, sticking out her hand as Sin pulled out a pen and handed it to her, “It’s tonight; hopefully I’ll see you there.”

On a napkin Reesa wrote her phone number and information about the party. Quickly, Danny told her he’d be there and walked out the blue painted doors of IHOP.

“Were you the ones who did this?”

The girls looked up from their seats. There stood an old, fat, and ugly bald man with the word ‘manager’ on his nametag. He was pointing at the mess on the floor, which was coated in mustard, salt, and pepper.

{((Sinister Thoughts))}i{((Part 1))}

[Well, I've been working on this novel for a little while. The sections I post will vary in length so... enjoy! And leave a comment, please.]

-----------------------------------------

The house was empty when she got home from work, though it didn’t bother her. Her mother had an early case of Alzheimer’s disease, and she had to live in a nursing home. Her father spent almost all day at work and spent the night drinking the money off. But besides that she had a pretty good life, she had enough money to last her at least through college because her mother used to be one of the most successful brain surgeons. That’s why no one believed it when she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s.

Suddenly, the shrill ring of the home phone rang through the still air. After jumping slightly, she picked up the phone.

“Hey Sinister! Just thought you might be lonely!” the person on the other side of the line said.

“Billie,” Sinister said to the other girl, “what do you want?”

“What?! Are you not excited that I called you?!” Billie said in a mock-hurt voice.

Sinister could easily imagine Billie sitting on her bed with her hand placed melodramatically over her heart as she said that.

“You know I love you Billie, but you do know that you just dropped me off at my house about ten minutes ago?” Sinister asked in response.

“Yes, I know that Sin.”

“Then why are you calling me?”

“Can I not simply call my bestest friend to talk about utter nonsense?!” Billie said, her mock-hurt voice had returned.

“You just don’t want to do your homework, don’t you?”

“Yeah, pretty much…” she said bluntly.

Sin and Billie talked the rest of the night, about everything. They always did that, nearly everyday, that’s how great of friends they were. Billie and Sinister had gone to the same school for all their life and they had always been the only punks. But later in the middle school they made friends with Charrette and Reesa [Clarissa]. And together they made a little group, since they were the only punks in a school of people who hated them.

“… tested and secure…” M. Shadows sang with roaring instruments.

“Mmm… I love this song…” Sinister mumbled still slightly asleep.

She sleepily hit the sleep button on her alarm clock, but the song continued.

“Shit!” Sin shouted as she fell off the side of her bed, with a loud grunt.

Coincidentally, her cell phone was under her bed. She flipped it open and ‘Unholy Confessions’ by Avenged Sevenfold stopped playing.

“Hello?” she said exasperatedly as she turned over onto her back, still on the floor.

“Hey! Just wanted to give you a wake up call!” three voices shouted out of the phone.

“I hate you guys,” Sin said, still tired from being woken up.

“Aw, you know ya love us, Sin!” Reesa said.

How can she be this hyper, this early?! It’s Saturday, I’m supposed to be able to get some sleep!’ Sin thought, sighing to herself.

“Well, my bother told me about this party at some kid from school’s house. There’s supposed to be some kick-ass band playing…” Charrette said, including the band part at the last minute.

They know me better than I know myself,’ Sinister thought, laughing to herself.

Sin was obsessed with music, but she preferred rock.

“Hm… I guess I’ll come along,” Sinister said after thinking for a bit.

“Yay!” the other three cheered.

“Can we get ready at your house Charrette?” Sin heard Billie ask Charrette.

“Yeah sure, but I’m not taking the same car as my brother.” Charr said.

“I’ll drive us, but when should I come over?” Sinister replied.

“You can come over now and we can go eat breakfast!” Reesa said, she was always hyper in the morning.

“Yeah, I’ll be over in a few minutes…” Sinister said with a sigh, she was still tired.

She lifted her head and glanced over at the alarm clock on her bedside table. Neon red numbers flashed eight o’ clock.

Okay, so maybe it isn’t THAT early… but it’s still too early for me. Especially on a Saturday!’ she thought to herself.

Dig a piece of clothing out of the HUGE closet, which was less then half full, slip it on slowly, and repeat. That was the assembly line for Sinister’s outfit. At the end, Sin ended up with an outfit of about five articles of clothing, not including her bra and underwear. Her jeans were so old they had large holes at the knees and had faded from a dark night sky navy to a light stonewashed color. Sinister’s shirt was a loose-fitted Avenged Sevenfold ‘City Of Evil’ band tee. Her shoes, which were black-and-white checkered slip on Vans, were also worn down a bit. Knee-high red and black striped socks were hidden under her jeans. And last of all, she slipped on her rather large black My Chemical Romance zip-up hoodie, which read REVENGE on the front in red letters.

“Ready…” Sinister said to herself as she let out a last yawn.

Put the barrel to your head and say goodbye
I’m tired of always listening to you lie
Open your eyes and soak it all in
You’ve become such a bitch, now you’re a sin

Lock away the Barbies, with the G. I. Joe
Keep this up, you’ll lose all those you know
I used to ignore it and I would clamp my ears
But now you’ve become one of everyone’s fears.

Close your eyes, with a shriek and pull the trigger
I’ll crush you with words, my pen to the paper
You doubted me, that’s for sure
Now you don’t even have her.

I’m done with waiting for you to appreciate
Me for the work I’ve done
Go to the store, handover the I. D. I’m not stupid
I know that you’ve got your gun.

I’ve waited, saying that I’m your friend forever
But face it, have you met someone so clever
I tricked you; for all that you’ve done to me
You thought I’d put up with your shit for free.

Close your eyes, with a shriek and pull the trigger
I’ll crush you with words, my pen to the paper
You doubted me, that’s for sure
Now you don’t even have her.

You said “I’m the best that ever was”
But now I’m the best because
You played with a knife and you got cut
Now you’re alone, so kiss my… butt.
