The alarm went of and a high pitch ringing spread through my childhood room. The walls where painted pink but you couldn't really tell as they where filled with posters and photographs of everything from friends, family and even some Barbie posters from an old kids magazine. I just staid under the covers listening to the ringing for a while until I finally got my self too get up and turn my alarm off.

Today's the day we all had feared from the beginning of the winter break, school starts again! Don't get me wrong I love my school and all but now it's time to go back to the same old boring routine. I wake up at six so I can catch the bus at seven and get to school in time. I still live with my parents and 11 year old brother in an big yellow house out in the country side so it's a pretty long bus ride in to the city.

Now I really need to hurry so I don't miss my bus. It's the first school day in a while so I wanna look really nice in the hopes of making the day better. I put on this beautiful blue tight dress with long sleeves that just hugs my body beautifully. The hair I just give some fast strokes with the brush knowing it's gonna be messed up in seconds when I get out in the windy spring weather.

As I get down the stair I see my brother already standing ready to go. I say good morning and quickly jump in to a warm black winter coat and some red boots. As I open the door the wind hits me in the faces and I have to fight to hold it open for my brother.

The bus is warm and I'm sweating in my coat listening to my brother talking fast about this new game he wants for his birthday. I usually love listening to him talk but today I just wish to sit in silence and and feel shit about my boring life starting ones again. Faster then ever we're at the next stop and I hug my brother goodbye as he gets of wandering away to school with a backpack bigger than himself. Now I'm pretty much alone at the bus and the silence mixed with wind stroking the windows makes me somehow feel calmer. I close my eyes and feel asleep with my chin against the cold window.

The bus makes a little jump as the bus driver stamps the break stopping at the third stop.
I wake up shocked with adrenaline pumping hard in my body. Weird why did we stop? Usually nobody gets on the bus until we start getting closer to civilisation. I can hear a lady getting on talking and laughing with the bus driver.

The bus was quiet so the tapping from her boots sounded higher then it probably was. I couldn't stop myself from looking for the lady, interested in seeing the face of whoever lives out here. Maybe she had just moved in?
As the lady appears in my eyesight my stomach drops. I could not take my eyes of her, and I think she noticed as she gives me a gentle smile before taking a seat some rows in front of mine. I had never seen her before but gush was she beautiful! Her light blond hair laid perfectly over her shoulders even tho there was some crazy winds out there, maybe that why I was so amazed by her. She wore this beautiful coat similar to mine except hers snatched in her waist making me speechless also that smile, just wow! That gentle smile that made me feel like the only person in the world.
The buss driver hits the breaks again and I wake up from my trance. We are already at my stop right in front of the school. From the bus window I can see my friends waving at me so I light up in a smile and run of the bus but before jumping off I quickly turn to the seat three rows ahead of mine, to my surprise it empty! She most have left some stop before this one, probably missed it as I was on a different planet! I laugh a little at myself and then run to my friends.

That school day started out like every other school day but it wasn't that bad honestly, quit nice actually. I was happy to be around all my friend again who where even funnier now than before the break as if that was possible. We laughed our way thru they day and in a snap of a finger it was time for the last class of that day.
Sadly the last class was history, my least favourite class. I think this class could be allot of fun but our professor mr Brown is just the biggest mood killer in the inter county. Think about this really shitty high school teacher you had that just hated their job and hated kids in general, who's life was just miserable and took it out on every one that put their foot into their classroom. This teacher that just made you think "Hey why are you a teacher again?"
Well think that and then about ten times worst and you have mr Brown!

One of my friends told us to take a deep breath before entering the class room as a joke but honestly it was not a joke, we where all prepared for hell to broke out. But as I entered the classroom prepared for mr Browns downward smile to greet me I stop in shock making my friend stumble in to me. That was not mr Brown that I can say for sure!
At the desk this beautiful women sat with bangs tingling in her eyes and a gentle smile that made me forget how to breathe probably. I would say I was pretty lucky to have my friend pushing me to my seat our I would had kept staring at her in amaze.
That was the lady from the bus stop downtown sitting at the front desk of my history class...
