Monday

*Beep!...Beep!...Beep!*

I quickly lean over to turn this annoying thing off and lay back down.

"I just want 5 more minutes. Maybe even a hour." I let out a sigh and swing my legs over the bed. The floor is really cold, since it's getting near December, I slip on my bunny house shoes and walk silently to the bathroom. I open the door and flip the switch on. I smell myself but see no point in that, knowing me I'll take a shower anyway. I turn the knob of the shower and brush my teeth while I wait for it to warm up. Once I'm done brushing my teeth I strip myself of my onesie and hop in the steamy shower. I grab the cherry blossom body wash and scrub my body. I then take the shampoo conditioner and massage my scalp.

After I finished rinsing out the suds I step out and wrap the towel around my body. I walk over to the sink to wash my face since I didn't do it while I was brushing my teeth. When I'm done with that I walk back to my room to get dressed. I slip on my dark wash jeans and throw my blue school shirt over my head. I sit at my vanity that my aunt sent over to me for my birthday, even though it's in July, and brush through the tangles in my natural double colored hair. My hair is in its usual state; wavy. I decide on a look that will keep my hair out of my face and put it into a twisted braid.

I find myself happy and go to my dresser and search for my Beautiful Day, spraying it all over my body. I slip on some mix match socks and my white converse. As I skip downstairs I smell the delicious omelets being made and hear the refreshing orange juice being poured.

"Good morning family!" I chirp

"Good morning. Why are you so happy?" My mom eyes me suspiciously

"I don't know. It just seems that today, is gonna be a great day!" I sing-song the last part.

"Ok." She drags out the 'o'

"These omelets look and smell delicious mom." I take a whiff out of them and my mouth immediately starts drooling

"Here you go." My dad sets a glass of oj in front of me

"Thanks." I dig in my food so I won't be late for the bus

After I'm done eating, I tell Selena to just shove it all into her mouth. She doesn't oblige but when I warn her that I'm about to drag like I did on the first day of school, she stuffs her mouth and we finally leave.

"You know I hope you're happy." Selena points a finger at me with her mouth full

"I already am!"

"Stop being so happy! Thats not legal on a Monday." She said Monday like it was her enemy, which it probably is.

"I can't help it! I really don't know why, I just am." I start to waddle like a penguin because, why not?

"What are you doing now!" She shouts but in a friendly way

"I don't know but it's really amusing!" I laugh

"I want to try." She starts to waddle but ends up almost tripping over her laces

"See young lady. This is why I told you to tie your shoes before we left the house." I scold her

As we near the bus stop, the bus is coming around the corner. I quickly double knot her shoe laces before the bus stops. When it does, I step on and look for Luke.

"Lily!" He shouts from the back of the bus

I walk over people's feet and book bags just to get back there. Luke sands up so I can sit in the inside.

"Lily, meet my new friend Hunter." He whispers to me

"Hello, I'm Lily." I give him a small wave and smile

"Hunter's the name. Lily is pretty, did you know that?" He asks me causing me to freaking blush

"I guess and thank you." I reply quietly even I can't hear. I'm not sure if I actually said anything

"Pardon?" Country-boy

"She said to leave her alone because she doesn't like you and you smell like poo." Luke butts in

"What if I don't?" He stares at Luke

"I know I'm gorgeous and all, but can you not stare at me." Luke looks at him with an annoyed expression

"What if I don't?" He repeats

"You already said that." Now he looks bored

"Lets hope your fighting is better than your trash talk." He stands up but falls when the bus jerks a little, but stands up again anyways

"You can't even stand up, why would I waste my time on you?" He laughs

"Come on little boy."

"I'm taller than you. Actually I'm taller than everyone." He laughs again

Maybe they are just joking around like how Luke told me.

"You might be taller but I am stronger."

"Please." Luke scoffs

"Ok lets fight then, right now." Hunter balls up his fist but doesn't hit him

"I'm fine with that, are you sure?" Luke asks

"Oh yeah." Hunter responds

"Fine then." Luke stands up without a problem and balls up his fist, taking a swing, hitting him in the jaw

I thought they were friends!

"Luke no!" I shout but he doesn't listen

"You're gonna be sorry." Hunter's mouth is bleeding now

"Sorry for what? You are like an ant fighting against an ant eater."

Hunter swings at Luke, hitting him in the chest but it does nothing. Hunter looks like he just saw a ghost. He must have a hard chest.

Oh.

LUKE P.O.V

"Next time when you say something around me, be careful." I walk closer to him just to intimidate him even more than I did

"I'm really sorry! We could always be friends, you know? What did I say anyways? I'm so stupid!" He rambles on

"You talked about Lily." I whisper so she can't hear me

"In a good way!" He puts his hands up in defense

"I know, that's the problem. She's my rose. Leave her alone." Before I sit back down I spit in his face just for the fun of it

"You got something on your face." I point to my face to show him where even though I'm pretty sure he already knows

"Why'd you do that?" Lily frowns at me

"No reason." I shrug

"No, there is a reason! Now tell me." She raises an eyebrow

"We were just playing around." I smile so it seems convincing

"That was not 'playing around', that was a bloody fist fight that are old bus driver didn't notice." She uses quotes

"I know right! He didn't even hear anything either!" I laugh because it's true

"Lucas!"

"I don't respond to that."

"You just did." She crosses her arms while smirking

"Whatever." I giggle

I did not just giggle. I can be sassy, but I cannot giggle. That's Ashton's thing.

"Aw, Lucas giggled." She starts pinching my cheeks

"Ow." I pull away from her

"I sorry."

"Stop talking in a baby voice, it's weird." I smile

For the rest of the bus ride we sit in silence until we reach school.

"Welcome to prison." I smile again at her
