Luz p.o.v

i wake up the next morning from my alarm clock and turn it off, then checking my phone. i can't believe i talked with Amity almost all day yesterday! i talked to her the whole time i was at Willow's. i went after practice and stayed there till late, hanging out with all my friends. anyways, maybe i can get Amity to call me today! maybe i can even get her to hang out after practice! of course if she doesn't want to then i'm not going to force her, but i think it would be great for us to know each other better.

i get up from bed in a really good mood and shoot the green haired Blight a good morning text. i get dressed a little bit nicer than usual, actually putting my uniform on normally instead of it's usual sloppy way. i make my way to the bathroom and brush my teeth, King joining not long after. "ew, i can feel the happiness spewing out of you." he says has he scrunches his nose. i roll my eyes and spit out my toothpaste.

"you remember that girl i told you about?" i question, pointing my toothbrush at him. he nods in agreement, looking from my toothbrush back to me. "well, i talked with her all of yesterday while i was at Willow's house. i would've told you when i got home but you were asleep." i mention while putting the toothbrush back in my mouth.

"so that's why you look like a giddy puppy dog?" he asked with sarcasm lacing his voice and grabbing his toothbrush. i nod my head in agreement, not being able to speak. "well, good for you. has she been any nicer?" i shake my head no in response and spit out my toothpaste.

"nope! except she's cute so it's okay." i shrug off jokingly. the small boy rolls his eyes in amusement, then brushing his teeth. i rinse out my mouth and leave the bathroom, giving King a pat on the head as i leave. i get all my things in order and get ready to leave my house. i look at my phone once more before i leave my room and see that Amity texted me back. i smile as i read the simple 'good morning.' that was displayed on my screen. i asked if she slept okay and that i would see her at school before i put my phone away, leaving my room.

i walk down the stairs to see that Eda wasn't at the couch this morning. i think she already gave up on the 'getting up early' deal of hers. i leave out the front door after grabbing my skateboard. i make my way down the gravel driveway as i put on my headphones, listening to Freddie Dredd. i look at my breath as it steams up in the air. we were almost mid fall at this time of year and i couldn't wait for all the cool things to do this year.

it was crazy believing that this is my senior year. growing up i never would've thought i would have genuine friends and be praised by my peers. i thought i would be a loser and a nobody by senior year, not be offered scholarships from all around the country. i'm proud of who i've become, because in reality i've never really changed. sure i changed a lot physically, but mentally i'm still my fourteen year old self. i honestly wouldn't change it for the world.

i finally get to the pavement and set down my skateboard, hopping on and riding to the school. once i show up i walk in and put my stuff away, then going to the cafeteria. i sit with all my friends, surprisingly not being interrupted by any people outside of our friend group. it was a little noisy during breakfast, but not that bad. after talking with them for a few minutes i see none other then the beautiful Blight enter the cafeteria, walking towards us.

i think Gus noticed me looking at her and turns to where i was looking. then turning back to the table. "you've got it bad, don't you?" he asked, raising an eyebrow in amusement. i feel my face start to turn red.

"me? no, of course not!" i say hastily, trying to play it off. right as i say that i turn back to see Amity right next to him, already sitting down.

"what are you guys talking about?" she questions while raising an eyebrow. i see Gus go to talk.

"nothing!" i interrupt him while yelling. which just embarrassed me more. way to go Noceda! you've made a fool out of yourself! "we were just talking about..." i try to think of something to play off, "cats!"
