An occasion on which one is reminded of the state of things in the real world, for one to see what's really happening. To see it isn't at all a simple nightmare. 

"Addie, its time for school." I groaned at the wretched, scratchy voice of my step father. Tossing my blanket to my toes, I reached for my eyes and started to rub them before I slowly stepped out of bed. The first thing I wanted to do was go to the bathroom. I had to cover up my face before he threw another fit. I shuffled my feet across the wooden floor. My step father didn't know about last night. I came home late last night after trying to attend a school party. It was late, dark and of course very loud. I can imagine the three story house, with six inch sized windows. Red solo cups splattered across the yard, and bodies tangled up on each other. The smell of weed and alcohol filled my lungs before I even stepped onto the brick driveway.  I was twirling a strand of my hair with my index finger, trying to gather or grow a pair of balls. Was I really going to step in a place full of people who hate me? I pushed myself up the driveway and stared into the house. The red front door was opened, and two bulky jocks stood in front of it. They were cracking jokes and eyeing the freshmen girls.

I looked around the yard trying to find another way into the party.  I was out of luck, mentally smacking myself upside my head I inhaled a large quantity of air and blew it out. I walked casually towards the dickwads, and began to get nervous. The two brown hair shits looked up and smiled with mischief peering out of their eyes.

"Look what we have here Bryan, little Miss Addie." River was wearing a black button up tee and faded jeans. His blue eyes were glaring on my fragile pale body.

"What's a slut like you doing here?" Bryan laughed, he picked up a strand of my hair and pull me forward. His breath smelled like Vodka and vomit, and his brown eyes pierced through my own baby brown ones.

"I--I"

Before I could even guess what could happen next, I was pushed onto the cement.

"You don't belong here you stupid worthless whore. " River stuck his foot into my ribs and dug. I howled in pain, pushed his foot away and scrambled backwards away from them. My mascara started to run down my face, and then the boys started to yell out loud infront of the house.

"Everyone look here at little Miss. Addie, the town slut. She tried to get in the party without paying, so instead she asked if she can give us a blowjob." River exclaimed.  The everyone started laughing and pointing at me. I blinked my eyes and rubbed them, smudging my mascara even more. I dragged my body upwards, trying to breath through my nose. Struggling to walk forward and dismiss myself, but that only made it worse. A circle forms around me, hands started to push me around til I was pushed into Jackson. He grabbed my shoulders and looked at me, I could've sworn I seen a hint of pity sit in his eyes. But I was wrong, three seconds later I found myself being dragged into the house by my hair. Then without warning,  I was thrown into the pool.

I opened my eyes and the blue water seeped into my throat. My throat was burning and my body felt limp. My eyes started to get blurry.

I finally was pulled up, but it was by a young officer. I coughed, choking on the water coming out of my lungs. I laid my head to the left and see scattering feet. River and Bryan were face flat on the floor with a officer on top, trying to cuff their hands together.

"You bitch, this is all your fault I will ruin your life." Shouted River, as he was pulled away from the ground.

I wiped my tears roughly with my sweater and stepped down my stairs. My step father sat at the table texting on his phone. I pulled my sleeves down and fixed my jeans.

"And why the fuck are you still here?" He snarled, his teeth were bright white, he was wearing his blue tuxedo and purple tie. I closed my eyes and went to grab an apple, but they were smacked away. "You are fat. Quit eating so much."

I looked down at my empty stomach, or whatever its called now. My ribs were starting to poke through my shirt. I whipped around a make a small run for the door. I was ready to go out. Ready to leave.

I had to walk to school. It was rainy out, and all I had on was a sweater and sum jeans, and a simple black strap on sandals. By the time I reached the school I was dripping wet. My hair was drenched and started to become nappy.

"Hey look its little miss B.J"

"Slut"

''Whore''

"I heard she tried to sell her body for coke"

Tears were streamimg down my face,  I had to get out of there. I stormed past everyone, pushing them out the way. My face downwards as I was running.  Within minutes a stone wall hit my face, and no not a literal one. Slowly gazing upwards, my pearly eyes landed on the returning students that everyone was worried about. His black hair was a mess, and his neck tattoos stood out. He licked his lips and pushed me back. I fell on my back, and let out a whimper of pain. My hands were already scraped amd bruised, but that didn't matter. Especially to someone as cruel and deceiving as them two.

You see,

They are brothers.

Twin Brothers.

Alec and Marco Thompson. 

The expelled ones.

The delinquents.
