people who are best friends stay with your gang

Stay the way you are and don’t care what other people say stay that way its gold.

Don't let other people bring you down stay yourself.

Hello?! (1)

Hi, my name is Two-bit Coca cola I am about fifteen years of age I have strawberry blond hair and I have ever-green eyes. People at school thinks I am Outgoing and Bad for my own good. But my gang loves me for who I am especially best friend Mad-dog. He has jet black hair and reddish black eyes.

I am the only girl in the gang and the only one with light hair that is not light brown either, I am also the the only one with green eyes that tell the story that say’s that I have a taste of trouble.

My parents when I say parents I mean Dad (Mashle) and Stepmom, (Macey) and they say that I have the biggest taste for trouble, but my parents only say that when I come home with bruises other than that my parents don't acknowledge me only my step sister Jayden. When I come home with bruises it's usually half of my face because those dang cheerleaders, jocks and soces beat me up all the time and then my parents blame me for starting the fight.

Since my parents don’t pay attention to me my gang treats me like I am either there kid sister or there old sister. They treat me like family. Jayson who has light brown and blue eyes treats me like his kid sister because of my parents and also because he’ six-teen years old and has a strong build. My friend Mad-dog who Is my best friend and my Kid brother figure who like I said before has Jet black hair and reddish-black eyes he is the youngest of the group and has an okay build which tricks people into thinking he’s weak and not so strong but in reality he can kick anyone’s but when he wants to. Then there’s Hot-Topic, who has light brown hair bluish grey eyes that look more grey when he’s in a bad mood. Hes got an okay build that shows he’s strong but not strong enough to take on two guys at once but he can take on two guys if he wanted. Then there Sal who has Blond hair and acorn shaded brown eyes. Jayce has dark hair like the rest of the gang but he has the same shade of eyes as Sal does.

You know how I said before that I have a taste for trouble, well I wasn’t lying, one time I was standing outside a store that had a pair of converse that I have been trying to buy for years and I was standing outside the store looking at them, when the store clerk came outside and shooed me away, and that’s only the polite way of saying it he really said “GO AWAY HOOD” and that didn’t make me feel so hot if you know what I mean. I guess that story didn’t really prove nothing did it well I got another one for you.

It was the first week of school and I was going into the second year of high school and I wasn’t off to a great start. On the first friday of the school year my friend Jayce was getting picked on and usually Jayce is good at holding himself in a fight and not letting the other people see that they got to him but this was right after his break up with a girl he has been with for years. So he was having a hard time keeping up with that code he lives by, and plus this guy was staying mean stuff about hoods and stuff he was calling us scum-bags and saying that we should find an all greaser/hood school to learn in and saying stuff about hoods that were way worse. When I finally had enough and my best friend Mad-dog walked up with me to the fight and I stood in between the socs and my friend and threw a punch, we took turns throwing punches at each other until the big man got involved luckily Mad-dog got jayce out of there before he got involved. So me and the guy who was picking on my friend who’s name I later found out was Spencer was sitting in the principal's office.

“What happened” asked the principal.

“Well Jim, you see here this little princess here was picking on one of my GANG members” I boldly said the gang part.

“And I wasn’t about to have that happen so when I had enough I walked up and punched him in the face, No biggy” I said smoothly.

“You hood’s like to play it rough don’t you” asked Spencer glaring at me.

“Oh hon’ fair fighting ain’t rough no, knives and blades are rough” i said back to answer the question i was so rudely asked in the first place.

“Well Jim what's the punishment for me and the princess boy over here” I asked with a smirk on my face.

“It’s Mr. Jackson to you little miss and you will be suspended for two weeks for starting the fight, as of this so called princess guy is going to have an hour detention each day next week since it is in fact Friday” Mr. Jackson said.

I nodded in agreement and walked out of the office were my gang was listening in at and we walked out of the school without a word to there teachers or nothing.

“So. what’s the punishment” asked Jayce.

“Suspended for two weeks” I replied.

That was the end of that conversation because we went into town and the first person that walked through our gang got pick pocketed, which means that I stole his wallet out of his pocket.

I took out the cash and split it between my friends and threw the wallet on the ground. We walked home to Jayson’s dads house and ate some food like we normally do after school but this was different this was a little earlier than our normal food time was.

“Man why do the lower class men get the worst punishments” I said starting to feel tears coming from my eyes.

Jayson walked over to me and said “I don’t know man, we just get treated like crap like you said the rich kids are a bunch of princesses”

“Thanks man, you really know who to cheer people up” I commented.

“Hey. speak for yourself he’s terrible at cheering the rest of the gang up” sal complained.

“But he does try” defended Mad-dog.

“He always does try to play superman” I teased.

Jayson hates it when I call him superman because he say’s that is annoying but really everyone says that it’s funny because of his strong build that's why we ocasally call him superman. You're wondering why some of the gang has nicknames and why they have them. We gave the name Hot-topic to my friend matt, because he always knows the latest gossip and he’s so outgoing that it’s not even funny. We gave my friend max the nickname of Mad-dog because he’s short tempered and he’s loyal like a dog, and finally my nickname, well first off my name is Nick and not Nick as in Nicole it's just Nick but my nickname is Two-Bit coca cola, the Two-Bit part is because of how out going I am and how I can't keep my mouth shut for the life of me i’m surprised my gang didn’t decide to call me Big-Mouth cola. The Coca Cola part was because of how much coke I drink. I a sometimes seen with a pepsi but most of the time I am seen with a coke. Or something of the Cola products.

Anyway after we were done eating we decided to go to the ally that we hang out in. it’s near a park so if we just get bored we can just meet up with our non gang friends Tito and Jessie, we would always play tag or something along those lines. One time we caught ourselves playing truth or dare. We dared Tito into taking his basketball and shooting it in the cort that was being used by a whole bunch of idiot adult kids, he did it and they kicked him off because he wasn’t apart of there game. So I called them wimps and one of the leaders comes up to us saying who are you calling a wimp so in defiance I put on my mean you will not hurt any of us face on and simply lied about who I was calling a wimp.

Any way we were heading to the ally that we hang out in. we had a cooler in that ally and there was a bunch of abandon cushions and car seat in there, in the middle of the sitting area was a fire pit. We sat down on the cushions me sitting next to Jayson and Mad-dog and on the other seat was Hot-topic laying on the old car seat, and Sal and Jayce sitting on the old couch that we took the cushions off of so we had more sitting area’s.

While we were there we discussed our next to weeks and we decided who was going to stay with me on what day for the next to weeks.

Hot-topic = Monday

Jayson = Tuesday

Mad-dog = Wednesday

Sal = Thursday

Jayce = Friday

This was going to be the schedule for the next two weeks.
