Correction, In yo face!!!



Hi, my name is Silver O'Connor. I'm 17 years old and live in Beverly Hills, California. I have light brown hair that is mid back, I'm 5'2, I have light brown eyes with silver flecks in them, I live with my best friend, Lily Dunnigan, because both of our parents died, so we have no adults in the house. Oh,one more thing; I'm very sarcastic.
~~~~~
I really don't want to go to school today and yet, here I am, walking down the hallway. When I stepped into my first class, my teacher stopped talking and looked at me.
"Thank you for joining us, Ms.O'Connor." Mr.Sherwood said. I snorted.
"Oh please. I'm not joining you. I'm gracing you with my presence." I said as I walked to my seat. Laughs and chuckles burst from places in the room. Mr.Sherwood just ignored that comment and went on teaching. I was looking out the window when something snapped on my desk. I looked up.
"Yes?"
"Will you be so kind as to answer my question?" Mr.Sherwood asked.
"No." I said bluntly.
"If you were paying more attention, you would know the answer." he said.
"Oh, I was paying attention, just not to you." I said sweetly. Giggles erupted from everywhere. Mr.Sherwood sighed.
"Alright everyone and Silver, the homework is on the board and is due by Thursday." he said and sat back at his desk. I quickly wrote it down and bolted out of the classroom when the bell rang.
In my next class, Ms.Clough is my teacher.
"Hello, Susan." I said to her as I walked in. She chuckled.
"Hello, Silver." she said back. She is the only teacher I actually try to be nice to. Right before class started, Principle Rizzoli walked in with a new kid on her arm. All the girls gasped, except for me, and some of the boys had a look of irritation on their faces. The new kid was hot. The room was dead silent.
"Hey, Whitney. Who's that?" I asked. The principle looked at me.
"This is Webster Nguyen(pronounced New-When)." she said. I nodded.
"Well, Webster. You can take a seat next to Silver." Ms.Clough said.
"Why me?!" I gasped. The principle chuckled.
"Wouldn't you like someone to chat to in class?" she asked.
"Why, when I can just talk to you?"
"Enough, Silver. He is sitting next to you and that is final." she said through clenched teeth. I snorted.
"Webster, go sit." Ms.Clough said in a soft voice.
"Oh joy!" I squealed sarcastically. Webster sat down to my right with a smirk on his face. When Ms.Clough started talking, Webster turned to me.
"Hey, I'm Webster." he said as he did the thing that Justin Bieber flip to get his blond hair out of his blue eyes.
"Don't talk to me, don't look at me, don't touch me, don't even think about me or you will face Ms.Sarcastic. Since you're new, I'll let this one slide. But, ask anybody, don't mess with me." I smiled bitterly and focused on Susan. The bell rang and I got out of the classroom as usual. Since I came in late, I get to go to lunch next. As I was at my locker I heard someone ask about me.
"Hey, what's up with that girl?" I guess he nodded his head at me because I felt stares on my back.
"Ah, Silver. She's the most sarcastic person you will ever meet." I knew that voice. It was JD.
"Does she have a boyfriend?" Ah, this was the new kid.
"Nobody knows. She's a mystery." I smirked at that. Fynn had said that.
"Yeah, she's like, the hottest girl I've ever seen and no one knows anything about her except the girl she lives with." JD sighed. The bell rung and I went to the lunch room, the smirk still on my face.
~~~~~
Today, we had mashed potatoes, a slab of steak, and cheesy broccoli. Yes,our lunches are awesome.
Lily was bouncing in her seat when I walked over.
"Why are so...giddy?" I asked. She smiled her That-Boy-Is-Going-To-Be-Mine smile.
"Webster Nguyen! Talk about hot!" she said. I rolled my eyes.
"And?" I sighed, knowing that this isn't going to end well for someone, most likely him.
"And, he's hot and awesome. I'm beautiful and awesome." she explained.
"So?"
"I want to go out with him." she said bluntly.
"I’m not listening, but keep talking. I enjoy the way your voice makes my ears bleed."I said, rubbing my ears.
"Meanie. But, I'm serious. Maybe this one will be a keeper." she said dreamily. Lily has dated many, many, many, many, many boys. She's not a hoe, she just falls in love fast.
"Why don't you go and ask him out?" I asked.
"Because I have to make sure that he likes me!" she yelped. Andrew, quarterback for our football team and the only boy who would not stop asking me out, walked over.
"Hey, Silver. I was wondering you would like to go out with me on Friday?" he asked in a voice that was sugar coated, but fake. Everyone knew he had a pool with his buds to see if he could get in every girls pants in the school by the end of the year.
"How could I possibly refuse? No thank you." I took a sip of water. Lily giggled.Andrew looked at me with something like wonder and awe mixed together. He walked away smirking. Hmm,that's kind of creepy.
"Okay, first meeting jokes...How about 'Your so hot it's like looking in a mirror.'?" Lily asked.
"Oh my god that’s so hilarious, I was in such awe of how funny it was, I forgot to laugh." I said.
"Okay, I get it. Maybe I'll show my smart side" she sighed. I laughed.
"What's so funny?" she asked.
"Oh! You were serious?" I gasped.
"Do you think I'm stupid?" she looked at me with her hazel eyes,trying to make me guilty.
"It's not your fault." I patted her shoulder.
"Ugh! Why does God let you breath!" she crushed her black eye brows together in frustration.
"He doesn't, I just don't let him kill me." I shrugged casually and got up.
"Ugh!" she got up,too.
"I'll try to be nicer if you try to be smarter." I stuck out my hand so we could make a deal.
"Fine." she said. We shook hands and both left the lunch room.


Man enough?



I felt someone walk up behind me.
"Well, if it isn't Short Stuff." not someone, something. I don't know why they think calling me short is going to hurt me. The thing that was talking to me was named Avana Monroe. I turned away from my locker, facing her.
"Jealousy is a terrible disease…….Get well soon!" I waved to her and walked off. Everyone in the hall had heard and they all laughed at her.
"Well, at least I'm hot." she countered.
"Fighting with me is like being in the special Olympics. You may win, but in the end you’re still a retard." I said back.
"You're the one who's stupid!" she yelled.
"Tell me .. is being stupid a profession or are you just gifted?" I asked. Everyone 'Oooo'ed and 'Ahhh'ed. Special people.
"I'm not stupid. Watch your back, Shorty. I know people." she hissed.
"Does this face look like it cares? NO!!!"
"You know you care." she said.
"Awww that`s so cute! You actually think I care…If it looks like I give a damn, please tell me. I don’t want to give off the wrong impression." I patted my heart. She was speechless.
"Do you know what I like most about you?"I asked, knowing she'd step into my trap.
"No...what?"she asked. She did!
"Absolutely nothing." I said. She let out a frustrated scream and took a swing at my face.
"Well, aren't you just a ray of sunshine?" I said mockingly.
I ducked and kneed her in the private. Surprisingly,she fell.
"I guess you don't have enough,ahem...balls,to take me on.Next time you try to make a move,atleast take me to dinner first." I said. Everyone is cheering and whooping. I walked into my next class like nothing had ever happened

Conrete Slaps And Fake Boyfriends



When I got home, I quickly did my homework, which took me an hour, and set my alarm for 5 o'clock. Then, I set out my work clothes and slept.
Ring. Ring. Ring. RRRRRRRIIIIIIINNNNNNNGGGGGGG. I jumped up out of bed. Lily came rushing in.
"Come on! Get up! Get ready!" she yelled, putting on her uniform skirt. I took a 3 minute shower and put my hair in pigtails and left my bang out. I hopped around, pulling my button up shirt on and my skirt, and looking for my dark brown flats. Once I was done, I grabbed a jacket, my phone, and my wallet. I ran out the door and jumped in the car, just as Lily stepped on the gas.
"Finally, it took you long enough." she sighed. We couldn't be late or our boss, Fred as he told us to call him, would give us overtime. I put my name tag on and fixed Lily's, since her's was upside down. My hair was dry now, and stray pieces were blowing in my face. One of my favorite songs by Aly and Aj came on and I started singing along.
" It took too long, it took too long
It took to long for you to call back
And normally I would just forget that
Except for the fact it was my birthday
My stupid birthday

I played along, I played along
I played along, it rolled right off my back
But obviously my armor was cracked
What kind of boyfriend would forget that?
Who would forget that?

The type of guy who doesn't see
What he has until she leaves
Don't let me go
'Cause without me you know you're lost
Wise up now or pay the cost'
So you will know

You're not livin' till you're livin'
Livin' with me
You're not winnin' till you're winnin'
Winnin' me
You're not gettin' till you're gettin'
Gettin' me
You're not livin' till you're livin'
Livin' for me
This is the potential breakup song
Our album needs just one
Oh baby please, please tell me

We got along, we got along
We got along until you did that
Now all I want is just my stuff back
Do you get that?
Let me repeat that, I want my stuff back

You can send it in a box
I don't care just drop it off
I won't be home!
'Cause without me you know you're lost
Minus you I'm better off
Soon you will know

You're not livin' till you're livin'
Livin' with me
You're not winnin' till you're winnin'
Winnin' me
You're not gettin' till you're gettin'
Gettin' me
You're not livin' till you're livin'
Livin' for me

You can try, you can try
You know I know it'd be a lie
Without me you're gonna die
So you better think clearly, clearly
Before you nearly, nearly
Mess up the situation
That your gonna miss dearly, dearly, c'mon

You're not livin' till you're livin'
Livin' with me
You're not winnin' till you're winnin'
W-w-w-winnin' me

You're not gettin' till you're gettin'
Gettin' me
You're not livin' till you're livin'
Livin' for me

This is the potential breakup song
Our album needs just one
Oh baby, please, please tell me

This is the potential makeup song
Please just admit you're wrong
Which will it be? Which will it be?"
"How come you never told me you could sing?" Lily said.
"Oh,I don't know. Maybe because you never asked?" I said dryly.
"So are you going to sing in the talent show?" Lily giggled.
"No. Can you see me up on stage singing?" I snorted.
"Oh, come on! You just hit every note in that song and you have a rockin' voice! Please!" Lily begged.
"No."
"I will make us late, or better yet, stop this car!" she threatened. I gasped.
"You wouldn't!" I narrowed my eyes at her. She smirked and pulled the car over and turned off the engine.
"Okay, okay! You win! Jeesh, you're scary sometimes." I muttered.
"I knew you'd see things my way." she laughed. We got to the diner in less than 5 minutes, with 3 minutes to spare. We got out of the car, but my foot got caught and I fell on the concrete. 2 feet in grey and black Nike high tops appeared in front of my face. I looked up and saw Webster's face. He helped me up.
"Did you just fall?" he asked.
"No, the concrete got up and slapped me in the face!" I said, stomping into the diner. I clocked in. Man, people are so stupid. If you just saw me fall, why would you ask?
"Why are you so mean to me?" Webster asked,pouting.
"If you ask stupid questions, of course your going to get a sarcastic come back, especially from me." I sighed. He shook his head.
"So, what can I get you?" I asked.
"What?" he asked.
"You are sitting in my serving area. What do you want to eat?" I said.
"Oh. I'll have the bacon cheeseburger with fries and a large Sprite." he said. I took his menu.
"That will be right up." I said. I gave our cook the the order. I got the Sprite and went back to his table. But, 2 more boys were there.
"What can I get you boys?" I asked.
"You." one of them said.
"I'm sorry,that's not on the menu." I smiled.
"Can I get the same thing he's having?" the other asked. I nodded. Atleast somebody isn't trying to hit on me. I told Elliot, the cook, to make 2 more of that order and got 2 more Sprites. I went back to their table.
"Here you go." I said.
"Will you go out with me this Saturday?" the guy asked.
"Sorry,I'm having a headache this weekend." I said.
"Dude, you just got rejected." Nice Guy said.
"No, not yet." Dumb Guy waved his finger.
"Can I have your name?" he asked.
"Why? Don't you have your own?" I retorted.
"I can tell that you want me." he smirked.
"Yeah, you caught me. I really, really want you...to leave." I said. The other boys laughed at him.
"Order up!" I heard Elliot yell. I went to the steaming plates of food, gave it to the boys, and looked at the clock. It was half past 5. I smiled and went over to my break table. My table was 3 tables away from the boys. I smiled and texted a friend of mine.

Me: Hey, I'm on break. Hurry, only 25 mins.left :)
Him: I knw I knw, I'm on mi way.

Three minutes later the door opened and in walked my second best friend, Magnus. He was about 6'5, had dark brown hair, and grey eyes. He had a look on his face that said he was going to hug me. Now, I'm not a big touchy feely fan. I squeaked and backed up. Once he spotted me, he ran over, and not only hugged me, but picked me up bridal style. I held on to his neck with my life.
"I swear, if you drop me I will give you Hell." I hissed in his ear. He chuckled and sat down in my booth with my legs on his lap.
"You did that once, I didn't like it. It hurt. Alot." he scrunched up his nose. I smiled.
"Well, it's not supposed to feel good." I said. He looked around.
"Why are those boys over there staring?" he whispered in my ear.
"At school, no one knows if I have a boyfriend, so I'm guessing they think you're my boyfriend." I whispered back.
"I like that idea." he purred. You see, Magnus and I, we think alike. He put a serious face on and walked over to the boys' table.
"I heard you were hitting on my girlfriend." he said.
"It-it was just some harmless flirting." he stuttered. I was secretly video taping the whole thing on my phone.
"If I hear about it again, your dead." he hissed. Wow, he is a good acter.
"I swear it won't happen again." he stuttered.
"Good." and then, Magnus burst out laughing. I stopped taping and laughed, too.
"What's so funny?" Webster asked.
"You guys actually thought was my boyfriend! Ha, this is going on YouTube." I said.
"Yes! I still have a chance!" Nice Guy yelled.
"You know, I really need to know your names." I said, after laughing.
"My name is Ace.'' said Nice Guy.
"My name is Jayden." Dumb Guy said.
"And your name is?" Ace asked.
"It's in the phone book." I said.
"But I don't know your number." he said.
"That's in the phone book,too."I said as I took their dishes and put them in the dirty stack. Ah,freedom. My shift was over, but Lily wouldn't be home until 8 P.M. Which was good for me because today was her birthday, everyone at school knew but didn't say anything because we throwing her a surprise party. I looked over at the boys, Ace, Webster, Jayden, and Magnus.
"Come on, we're going to my house." I said.
"Why?" Magnus asked.
"So I can kill you, just come on." I said leading the way.
"You know, I've been your friend for what, 5 years, and I've never been to your house." Magnus said thoughtfully.
"No one has ever been to my house before, dip-shit." I rolled my eyes. Magnus just glared playfully.
"Well come on, Pets." I said, climbing into Magnus's car.

Make-Up is for girls, I use flour



We all rolled up to my house and hopped out. I heard a whistle.
"This is what you call a house?" Jayden asked. I put my hand on my hip.
"No, I call it a cave." I opened the front door and walked in, I heard the boys walking in behind me.
"Well, damn. Did you rob a bank?" Ace muttered.
"The decorations are in that closet, put them up. I'll be down in 10 minutes." I called as I ran up the stairs. I ran into my room and tossed off my shirt and jeans. I put on a pair of gray sweat pants and a gray fitted tee that stopped right above my belly button. I put on some gray fluffy socks and jumped down the stairs. The boys were just finishing the pink and yellow streamers.
"I'm impressed. Now, someone help me with the cake. Everyone else, go make some calls and spread the news of a birthday party for Lily at Silver's." I said. Webster chose to help me with the cake.
Once we were in the kitchen, I got out the ingredients.
"We're starting from scratch? I thought we were just going to make one from the box." he said.
"Spoiled much?" I snorted. I put the eggs in the big mixing bowl and pointed at the flour and turned my back on him to read the recipe I made. When I turned around, flour was on my face.
"Oh, my gosh. I am so sorry. I swear I didn't do it on purpose." he pleaded. I smiled.
"It's okay." I said. When he turned his back, I took the cup of flour and poured it over his head.
"What the hell?!" he yelled.
"Now, we're even."
"I said it was an accident!" he yelled throwing more flour on me. I cracked an egg over his head. He gasped and was about to crack one over my head, but Magnus came and picked me up and out of the kitchen.
"What the hell, Silver?" he asked, getting a wet rag and started wiping flour of my face.
"He started it. He threw flour in my face, so you know, I had to get even." I shrugged my shoulders. Magnus shook his head and laughed. I raised a brow at him.
"Sometimes, I worry about you. Are you sure you're not going physco?" I asked. Magnus just laughed harder.
"Okay then, crazy person." I muttered, slowly backing away from him.
"Me? You're worried about me? Who's the one with flour all over her face?" he said while laughing. I backed up even more, if possible.
"And yet, you're the one laughing hysterically." I whispered. Magnus fell to the ground holding his belly. I tip-toed past him and ran quietly upstairs. I wiped all the flour off of my face and my hair. Then, I ran back downstairs.

Creepin' is for losers, I'm a winner



When I jumped off the last step, I saw Magnus on the floor, still laughing. Creep.
"Get off the floor fool! We got a party to set up." I yelled. If this was the movies, we would have turned on some silly music and danced while we worked. But, since this isn't a movie, we just did the work like the normal people we are.
After we were done, we plopped down on the couch with sighs.
"That took a lot of work!" Ace said. Also, in the movies they don't tell you how tiring it is. Those wimps! I nodded in agreement. The door bell rang. I looked at the clock. There was about 30 minutes until Lily came home.
"Start letting people in; I'm going to change." I said as I ran up the stairs. Now, I had to pick out an out an outfit. It had to be cute, but not so cute that it would outshine Lily, because I knew she would wear her pretty clothes home today (She always has a pretty outfit in the car because she thinks she might meet her Prince Charming while she's driving one day and didn't want to look ugly, her words not mine.). I decided on a T-shirt that said "Drunk Off Syrup". It was fitted and black,but the writing was green. On the back would be a picture of a bottle of syrup that was tipped over and a plate of pancakes. Next, I chose a pair of black skinny jeans that had only one thing on it: an emerald green paw print. Then, I chose a pair of black flats. Taking my hair out if it's usual ponytail, I left it out and put on a dab of lipgloss, just enough to make them shimmer in the right lighting, as if by magic. I faintly heard the door opening and closing multiple times downstairs as I put in a pair of small silver hoops. When I was done I walked down the stairs and bumped into a chest.
"Sorry." the stupid chest said. I looked up. Correction, the stupid person's stupid mouth that belonged with the stupid chest said it.
"Who are you?" I've never seen this boy before. He had longish red hair, soft brown eyes, and was about 6'2" , and as far as my face could tell, had a very muscled body. I blinked at him.
"Sorry, my name is Edan." he held his hand out and I shook it.
"Isn't that Irish Gaelic for 'Little fiery one'? " I asked. He smiled and nodded.
"You know your stuff." he commented.
"I just know my languages." I smirked as I said it.
"Well, I guess I'll see you later, if I don't lost in this house first." Edan did a little wave and left. I walked into the middle of the room and looked at the clock. 5 minutes to go.
"Okay listen up everyone! We have five minutes to hide! If you took off your coat or something, take it with you!" I yelled. All the people started to scatter, while I just turned off all the lights except for my bedroom light. I almost gave us away when Lily walked into the house.
"Hey, Sil-"
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LILY!!!!" we all yelled when we jumped up. Lily screamed and widened her eyes. And then she started crying. I walked infront of the big crowd and hugged her. I signaled behind me for them to start everything. Once I did, music started and people started talking.
"You remembered my birthday." Lily wailed.
"No, I remembered Taylor Lautner's birthday!" I rolled my eyes and let her go to the bathroom. I turned around and bumped into a chest. A very hard, stupid chest.
"Damn, I hate being short sometimes." I muttered. I looked up to find Edan. I smiled brightly.
"Hey." I said.
"You know, I heard that most short people are creeps. Is that true?" he asked me, smirking.
"No. Creepin' is for losers,I'm a winner." I said.
"Where did you hear that ridiculous rumor?" I asked. He nodded is head and I looked in that direction to find Magnus. He looked at me, raised his cup, and winked.
"Oh. Excuse me, I'll be right back." I whispered in Edan's ear- which was very hard to do by the way- and walked over to Magnus.

Small Cat TwoTimes!!!


Magnus squealed in pain when I punched him in the stomach.
"That is for callin' me a creep, bumnugget!!!" I hurrumped. And that's when a pair of cat ears landed on my head. I spun around, ready to knock that crap out of somebody, to find Lily's brother, Brenton, was behind me.
"What's up , kitten?" he asked. I punched him in the shoulder and hugged him. He started calling me kitten because for 2 Halloweens in a row, I went as a lion cub and kitten. It was his special way of calling me short and cuddly. I am not cuddly, damn it! (AN: hey, i know this chapter is short, but I'm trying to find a way to add some romance w/ spice into the party scene...)

"I'm surprised you made it." I said as I hugged him tightly. Brenton was our legal guardian until we turned 18.
"Of I did! I wouldn't miss it for the world. Plus, I have someone I want you girls to me." he said, shrugging his shoulders.
"Ohh? A ladylove?" I said as I wiggled my brows.
