my alarm went off again after snoozing it twice. i smacked my alarm off for the fifth time , refusing to get out of bed
"get up laylani" a voice boomed from the doorway
"go away," i mumbled, squeezing my eyes shut and rolling over. suddenly i am exposed to the cold morning air as the covers are yanked away from the bed
"you're gonna be late get up dumbass" my older brother kyrie says before leaving
his words finally register
after brushing my teeth, i quickly got showered and dressed in some nike sweatpants and a black mid-cropped sweatshirt before pulling a beanie over my messy curls all in record time
"hey kiddo" i hear a knock on the door
"come in" i reply looking at myself in the mirror questioning if i should cover my freckles with make up or just go natural today
"go natural babe" chantel says sitting on my bed as if she could read my mind
"alright" i nod before sitting on the bed next to her "what's up?"
"how was yesterday with kalin?"
"it was fun until he left" i shrugged
"again?" chantel sighs "he's always leaving for that girl huh?"
"yeah,but it's whatever"
"you should of told him you liked him a long time ago,if you had done that he probably wouldn't of got a girlfriend"
"not like it would of mattered,im not his type"
"don't even start with that shit laylani"
"its true though" i start "julia has clear skin,i have these dumb ass freckles,julia is spanish and irish,im boring ass black and white,she's pretty im just laylani" i pretend to be sad and hold my heart
"i hate you" chantel laughs grabbing the pillow out of my hands and hitting me with it,she laughs once more before leaving the room
i get up and run downstairs
"aw you actually look nice for once" my brother cooed as he hugs chantel from behind kissing her neck
chantel is my big brother kyrie's girlfriend,i moved in with kyrie and chantel four months ago , i didn't really have a good relationship with my mom so i thought it was best idea to move out
chantel is like the older sister ive always wanted,whatever i tell her stays between us two and she never tells my brother what we talk about unless i want her to
i moved in with my brother and chantel five months ago,i didn't really have the best relationship with my mom so it was for the best
"shut up assh-" my words are interrupted when i feel the vibration of my phone in my pocket. i slip it out to hold in my hands, unlocking the password as i stop to read the texts i recieved
best friend : i am sorry, lani. i hate when you're mad at me
best friend : let me make it up to you, please?
best friend: after school i'm taking you to your favorite pizza parlour. you have me for the whole day. then after, we can finish those movies that i promised
