Spreading her wings
Chapter 1: well this is my life

Slamming the front door, Sierra takes off running, she can hear the bus in the distance, picking up the pace she curses as the bus speeds past drenching her in dirty water.

Looking down at her white jumper and jeans soaked, she starts the 40-minute walk to school.

Arriving finally, she checks the time it's just gone 9am, school started 20 minutes ago. Hoisting her bag on her back she walks through the doors only to walk smack bang into a screeching harpy.

Angela Moore is your typical mean girl/ queen bee, with her bleached blonde hair, fake nails, fake lips, big boobs and dresses like a prostitute.

Angela's everything, she isn't, rich, popular, and is dating the hottest boy in school Callum Inconeti.

She looks at her feet mumbling an apology, when Angela starts laughing hysterically, pointing at sierras crotch shrieking "oh my god look she pissed her pants " looking up in horror Sierra sees other students pointing and laughing.

With a blazing red face, she runs off into the girl's bathroom shutting the door with a bang.

After drying her clothes, the best, she can she wipes her tears and heads off to class.

Walking into history 20 pairs of eyes look in her direction, the teacher Mrs hill tapping her foot with an angry look on her face "you are 40 minutes late miss Bennett" her teacher says, " take a seat and I'll see you after class".

Sighing she sits in the front row, taking her books out she starts writing in her note pad.

30 minutes later the bell rings, Sierra grabs her things and makes her way to the front to speak with her teacher.

Standing there awkwardly she waits for Mrs hill to begin talking. "Look miss Bennett I know things aren't the best at home with your father taking off and your mother on her own with two kids. This is happening too often, you are close to failing and I know you're looking at a scholarship" Sierra blinks rapidly, she knows her teacher isn't saying these things to be mean, but it still hits hard " I'm sorry" she says " I'll study harder and get to school on time".

Her teacher just smiles and tells her she's free to go, grabbing her stuff Sierra walks out to her next class.

Lunchtime finally arrives and she's starving, making her way to the cafeteria she grabs a tray and picks a chicken salad, strawberry milk and a bag of crisps.

Making her way to the doors she doesn't see the heeled foot sticking out, she goes down like a sack, her lunch all over the floor.

Looking up she sees the bitchy face of her bully smirking at her,"well well, aren't you clumsy today, hope you didn't shit yourself this time" with a flip of her blonde hair Angela turns her attention to her friends.

Picking herself up Sierra throws her trash in the bin counting down the hours until this horrendous day is over.
