Abby's Pov

I genuinely hate waking up for school. It's too early and too many people depend on me to understand what the hell is going on. Last night I went to bed too late because of a dumb assignment that's due today. I fell asleep around 1 in the morning and now it's 5 and my alarm is killing me. I was having a very good dream too. It's always the dreams where your life long crush is confessing their love for you that get interrupted by the lovely sound of an alarm.

I groan and slowly make my way out of my bed and into the bathroom to look at the damage. For only getting 4 hours of sleep last night I don't look too horrible. I put my brush through my hair a few times to where it's not sticking up every which way and then I pull it into a messy bun pulling out strands of hair to frame my face. After I finished my hair I brushed my teeth and washed my face. I'm feeling lazy today so I just pulled on some grey sweatpants and a fitted black t- shirt. I put on some light makeup that consisted of mascara and lipgloss. To finish the look off I grabbed my white nike air force 1's and walked downstairs.

My mother made pancakes and bacon and let me tell you they were phenomenal. She is such a good cook it's unbelievable. I grabbed my plate and then went to sit down next to my brother, Jacob, who is currently doing community college and living at home. My mom's couch is his throne as he likes to say. He lives off my moms money and food. It's kinda ridiculous how a 20 year old male is living off his mom but he's living his life I guess.

I quickly eat my food and thank my mother for yet another amazing meal. I grab my bag and made my way to the bus stop. I have a car but I usually take the bus because gas is too expensive for me. Especially when I don't have a job. I sadly have to wait at the bus stop with Johnathan Rodriguez. He lives across the street from me making him one of my neighbors. He is extremely annoying and he does it on purpose. Freshman year I swore to myself I would never let him get to me. I would just ignore him. That only lasted about 3 months because he was too annoying and wouldn't leave me alone. Now all we do is bicker and make fun of each other. Basically striving off of each others failures.

When the bus finally arrived I immediately sit in my unassigned assigned seat. The people who get it, get it the people who don't, don't. On the bus Johnathan usually leaves me alone because it's too early for conversation and in all honesty everyone is still half asleep. Today is obviously not my lucky day because he decided to be annoying.

"Pssst Richards"

"Oh my god what do you want" It came out a little harsher than intended but it gets the message that I don't want to talk to him through.

"Damn Richards who died" I rolled my eyes and turned away because he is not worth it to me. The rest of the ride he was quiet so he must've taken the hint. When the bus got to the school I walked off without even a glance in his direction. I immediately spotted Sierra and Maddy but I didn't see Dylan which was strange.

"Hey guys.. Where's Dyl?"

"Oh he went to walk Savannah to her class"

"Savannah? Since when does he like Savannah?" Savannah is a bitch to say the least she hangs around Becca who makes a mission to ruin my life.

They shrugged and we started to walk into the school. Walking in is the same every day. You see all the cliques standing in the hallway talking to each other and laughing. Well some are laughing. The emo kids in the corner don't find too many things funny. We walk to our lockers and grab our books for our first class which sadly isn't together. We don't have very many classes together which sucks.

They walk me to my classes most of the time because they don't care about being late. Me on the other hand cares a lot. My first class is math which is fairly easy for me. And even luckier, Josh is in this class with me. Josh is the most attractive man in this school. He's been my crush since 7th grade but he doesn't usually show any interest to me in that way.

I sit in the back of the classroom like usual and wait for him to enter. I have this daily routine where I sit in the back for the perfect view. He walks in just as the bell is ringing and let me tell you he looks good today. He's wearing a baby pink hoodie and some black ripped jeans. Oh look at that he's wearing white air forces too. He has amazingly soft brunette hair. Don't ask. And dazzling brown eyes that I could stare into for eternity. He's also like 6'2 which is attractive in its own way.

He makes his way to his seat which is conveniently right in front of mine. This might sound creepy but I stare at the back of his head all class. Like no joke. My teacher calls on me randomly when i'm not paying attention. I don't know if he knows why i'm not paying attention but minor details. In this class the teacher always thinks he got me. He's like oh she isn't paying attention let's embarrass her but nah I get the answer right embarrassing him. It's a fun game we play.

The teacher starts his lesson and he's going over square roots which is easy so I don't have to pay attention. Which means I get to stare at Josh's head for an hour. This will be fun!
