Song for this chapter: Dynamite by bts

I'm awake.

the intermittent headache is killing me...I can't open my eyes but I no longer can just lie down like this,i slowly open my eyes...bad idea,bad idea! sunlight makes my eyes go blind and the pain rises,I did had some painkillers but how am i supposed reach my dresser.

slowly i make my way and somehow swallow the pill,its 5:50 and i have been awake in my bed for the last 1 hour. I can feel the pain is slowly reducing but its useless to go back to sleep now i have to get up in a hour or so,I made my way to the window.

My room on the second story is east facing ,on normal times its not a very comfortable one but in morning like this where the sun is slowly making it way up only to shine bright with all its might, its  just beautiful. But the sun isn't quite out yet like its being shy,it wants to be out there but something inside is holding it back.

Sounds of creaking brings me back to reality and I look down,it's him.

He's wearing his oak hill varsity team jersey, guess he has a match today,without even wanting i wish him good luck,i hate myself,i mean what is wrong with you Natasha? That guy shut you up,ghosted you,acted like you don't even exist and you are praying for him..but.. he looks  so handsome in his jersey..

OH MY GOD! he looked up! I quickly hid behind my curtains, did he see me? What if he saw me? This is so mortifying...ugh! He's gonna think I'm some hopeless girl who still has a crush on him and pines for him,which I'm but he can't know that.

To wash away the embarrassment i decide to take a long shower and then spent a good amount of time getting ready, I carefully chose my outfit,then put on some light makeup which i hardly do cause i'm always running late.

After dropping off sopihe to the elementary school and me to mine Beth was gonna go to college, it had been our arrangement even when beth and i used to go to the same high school and after graduation when beth stayed home it was her duty to drop us off,both things she wasn't at all happy with but accepted with no other options.I could see her fidgeting and trying to say something but stop at the last moment,so i waited  for a few minutes but she didn't so i got off and headed for my locker.

I didn't had the books here I needed today so i had to carry a shit ton with me,as i loaded the books to my locker I found the gronola bar i left,it was completely disgusting sitting here for the past two weeks.

"look who's early today" jason patted me from the behind.

"hey!I come early"

"yeh right" he snorted and pulled me in a hug. Jason was the third of our small group,me and sadie met him in middle school, he was a scrawny kid so everybody else  picked on him which made him a instant companion but now he is a wellbuilt guy who plays for the school basketball team and pretty popular too,if he wanted he easily could slip and mix with the "popular crowd" but he never forgets his roots,loves both us like crazy.
