Alexandra my phone read as I picked it up with shaky fingers. I tap unlock on my screen and debated whether to open the text or not. I sighed and looked at myself in the mirror.
Why am I so scared to open this? I thought, It's not like it's him calling.
But it's his sister. My inner thoughts argued back. Damn why do I do that? I'm crazy, I finally concluded and looked back at the screen. Shaking my head, I finally decided to open the text message.
Hey Em! Havent tlked in a while and ill be in town tmrrw, just me. wanna meet up somewhere? :] <3 -alexx
I sighed with relief knowing that it was only her who texted me. But yet in the back of my mind I couldn't help but wish that it was him who contacted me. I shook my head yet again and replied yes and to pick me up after school. Right after my phone read message sent; my gut drop down 10feet telling me that this was a bad idea...
"Come on you have 15 minutes to get ready Emma!" I heard my mom yell from downstair in the kitchen. Crap I forgot about school, so I brushed my already straight hair, put a headband in it and did light makeup. I was blessed with good skin genes so I don't have to worry about foundation, and my gray eyes already popped out so I put on light mascara and a little eye liner. Unfortuantly I'm a blonde and rubbed my mascara under my eyes a little. Damn, so I took my rag and rubbed hard until the mascara off under my eyes. Great now my face is red.
Once I finished that little situation, I got dressed, brushed my teeth and walked back into my room and to my lifesize mirror.
I have to admit it, I don't look too bad. My dirty blonde hair was shining more with the headband in it that matched perfectly with my gray cardigan. Underneath I had a light blue tank, a long flowery necklace, short jean shorts that didn't look slutty and flip flops since I'm already really tall.
"Let's go! Your gonna have to eat on the way now if you want to drive with your brother!" my mother screamed again. I sighed as I took one more glance in the mirror, fixed my hair and slide along the railing of my stairs.
"And she sticks the landing! The judges have their score and it's a 10.0!" I say as I land on my feet but then my butthead of a brother has to go and ruin it.
"Whoops my bad!" Nick says as he pushes me almost making me fall on my ass. Stupid brother. "Now come on squirt gotta get you to wittle high school," he says in a baby voice and ruffles my hair.
"Hey don't do that buttface! And I told you I'm not squirt, besides your in the 'wittle high school' too stupid." I roll my eyes, push past my annoying brother and grab a poptart before running out the door, almost getting run over by the dork.
