Brooklyn
"You guys ready to go shopping?"
Danny asks, turning towards me.I just stare down at my phone.
"Yeah whatever."
Gabby grumbles from the backseat.Danny picked us up from school today since I was complaining about the bus yesterday.
That was very nice of him.
"What the hell happened today?"
He asks, looking from Gabby to me.I roll my eyes.
I'm not really in the mood to talk. I'll just get upset all over again.
Gabby is the problem.
She would rather hang out with a reckless boy than take my advice.
I glare just thinking about it.
"Nothing. Brook is just being a bitch."
She coughs.I take a deep breath.
I don't like getting upset.
Who does?
Danny glances at me nervously.
He knows what always comes next.
"Hey, guys. Let's all chill."
He warns, giving Gabby a warning look in the review mirror.I stare out the window.
"I said I was sorry. Geez, what the heck do you want me to do?"
Gabby continues, much to my disinterest.It's fine, she'll just learn the hard way.
"Whatever."
I mumble, putting in my headphones.I love music, it always calms me down.
I really love bands but when I'm in a bad mood, I can always count on Charlie Puth to make me feel better.
He has the voice of an angel.I need a break from everything.
Gabby's spent the past 3 days flirting with Jacob Clayborn.
The attractive boy from the first day of school.
I don't like him.
He's handsome and all but he's clearly a player.
She had the nerve to get mad at me when I told her that.
According to her, I'm just jealous because I don't have boys lining up for me.
I lean back in my seat, trying to clear my head.
I don't mind if she had a boyfriend.
It's just the fact that she always goes for the wrong people.All I did was try to look out for her.
I hope Jacob can take an ass whooping because Danny is going to go straight for him once he hears that Jacob breaks her heart.
We've only been here for a week and she's already more focused on boys than school.
Not me though, I don't really care about boys.
Well there was that silent boy at lunch today.
I have no idea why I even went to go sit by him, I've been here long enough to know that he doesn't talk.
I've never heard him but I really want to.
I sit in front of him in English class and I see how people look at him.
Not in a good way.
In a sad way.
I'm curious.
