    Okay this is a funny piece of prose I wrote for my creative writing class in college. It won funniest piece and I thought I'd share it with ya'll. =]]




    Kayla waited until the coast was clear. There was no one else in the hallways and the parking lot at her high school looked practically empty as she stared from the window in the girl’s bathroom. Brian was going to be so disappointed in her if he found out what she was doing, but she didn’t care. She had to get her fix. Her parents had helped keep her clean for almost a month now, but she was getting worse, not better. Kayla wasn’t a weak person no, she was actually a very strong person, she just knew what she wanted and didn’t care what her boyfriend Brian or what her parents would think. They didn’t know just how strong she was; strong in the fact that there was no way anyone was going to stop her this time.

    Kayla slowly and quietly opened up her purse to see how much money she had. Too her disappointment she only had enough money for one, maybe two pints. She sighed as she put the money back into her purse. At 16 years old Kayla knew how to sneak in and sneak out of places, she’d done many times in order to meet Brian in his car across the park from her house. Kayla opened the door to the bathroom stall she had been hiding in and walked across the room to the door and creaked it open to see if the janitor was still there, and to her luck he was already gone. Kayla slowly slipped out the door and pushed herself against the wall in order to remain in the shadows. She made her way quietly down the long deserted hallway, which had never seemed so long before but now she could’ve sworn it was at least 7 miles long. She heard a door open and saw Mr. Harding exit the teacher’s lounge with his nose in a book. Kayla stopped dead and held her breath. Mr. Harding didn’t even notice her, he was too enthralled with his book. Kayla breathed a sigh of relief. She couldn’t have any one knowing what she was doing.

    Kayla finally made it to the end of the hallway. She crouched down on the ground and took a deep breath. She slowly stood up and peeked out the window, unfortunately there were still some cars left and Kayla needed to be completely alone in order to get what she needed. No one could see her, otherwise they would know her secret and then turn her in to her parents and that just could not happen. It was embarrassing enough that her mother had already informed all of her teachers of her habit and Brian knew too. It was hard to have people know her secret because that was exactly what it was supposed to be, a secret.

    Kayla watched as the last car pulled out of the lot and she knew she was home free. He had never been late before and Kayla still had 5 minutes before his truck would pull up. Kayla fidgeted as she waited on the usual corner. She could feel the need overwhelm her, the need slowly crawling upwards from her toes to the top of her head. She started to shake, she was so excited and so ready to be fulfilled after nearly a month! She could hear the trucks tires pulling up, hear the music from within the truck and the shaking grew. Finally, as if it were moving in slow motion and she breathed a sigh of relief. The ice cream truck finally made it!
