Senior year happend so fast that Alexa Duvall was having a hard time counting the past days. It came, it went. And now there she was. Half way into the year and some how still feeling like she had never even passed go. But this feeling was normal, right? Everyone got it, and Alex felt like she had even better reasons than anyone else to feel like that. It wasn't easy going through high school feeling like the weight of the entire world was on YOUR shoulders, and not many people understood why Alex often acted the way she did. No, she wasn't exactly a bitch. But from the first time ever speaking to her you could tell that she thought she was better, that she knew that inside of her she had more than you did. Whether you knew it or not. In the eyes of everyone else, they thought she was perfect. And in most ways, she was. Alex had maintained a perfect 4.0 GPA throughout her entire high school career, was never in any sort of trouble, and never seemed to hang around the wrong crowd. Maybe thats why everyone seemed to love her?
Duvall Jewelers. Ring a bell? Her parents are the proud owners of this company, so of course they are wealthy. All Alex had to do was ask, and there it was. Anything from the newest Coach purse to next years BMW, Alex had it.
Alex was known as the second oldest child. Her older brother, Alc, is twenty, Her younger sister, OPEN is eighteen. And then there was Jayden, her little brother. At times things did get hetic, with such a large family. Alc is a very protective brother, and for that Alexa loved him even more. He is like her other half. If Alexa ever needs anything at all, she never hesitates to ask her big brother. Her younger sister, OPEN was the complete opposite of Alexa. OPEN is stubborn, and sometimes just a flat out bitch. At times Alexa wishes she could be a little more like her younger sister, and be just a little more dependant. Alexa can't stand not being able to stick up for herself. Then there was OPEN, After fighting over the blue crayon in preschool, they became inseperatble. She soon came to realize that she could always talk to him about anything, and he would not once judge her.
Making it to her graduation had to be one of the best and one of the worst days of Alexa's life, it was a signal, like a green flag or whatever color flags happened to be at races. It was telling her that it was time to grow up, time to be a woman, time to go to make plans about college, time to get married, time to be old. And she wasn't ready to stop at that intersection yet. So, she maybe she does not want to go to college, just yet. But would not dare tell that tell anyone, except ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/community.gif) open. Maybe. Maybe she was too blonde to function.
To Alexa, there were only so many ways you could view the world. Like an ink spot in a way. And whichever way you seen the world, is the sort of mind set that you had. She had such fun trying to determine how other people viewed the same life as she did. She was curious to basically everything and the world seemed confusing and at times just as interesting. Her mom helped her second guess life, because she was basically a clone of her mother and so was her little sister. And at times, she really did want to be more like someone else. But for now she was on her way out into the world, lighting matches to watch the flame go out. Isn't that how it should be?
"She said I dont know why you ever would lie to me
Like Im a little untrusting when I think that the truth is, gonna hurt ya
And I dont why you couldnt just stay with me
You couldnt stand to be near me
When my face dont seem to want to shine cause its a little bit dirty."
