It had been a grey morning, like any other morning. I rolled out of bed and threw on my clothes. Throwing my heavy backpack full of multiple textbooks and notebooks over my shoulder before scurrying out of my room to bother my brother and see if he'd woken up and prepared his school crap to. I knocked on the wood door of his that was covered in cartoon and video game stickers.
"Hey are you ready for school?"

I spoke loud enough to he heard through the door. My brother Oliver always slept in through his alarms and I'd get in trouble if he didn't make it to the bus to so I always made sure he'd wake up. However it seems it was one of those fortunate days because he cracked open the door enough for me to spy into his room and see him decked out in school attire. "Yeah hold on lemme grab my bag."

I hummed in response, glancing at the alarm clock in his room from my spot outside his door. The clock read 6:13 and my stomach dropped. "Hurry up we've got two minutes till the bus comes! I don't wanna have to drive us to school!"

I snarked at him, gas prices had been rising and I really wanted to save my money for greater things. All this economic bull crap had been draining my poor wallet dry. My game addict of a brother squeaked like a mouse.         " Hold on lemme grab my phone!"

He popped the charger out from his phone and shoved it in his back pocket before he scrambled down the stairs after me. "Come on wait for me Lucinda!"

I snorted but nonetheless slowed down for the dork. Heh, Oli is such a geek but I wouldn't trade him for the world. Oli will al--- a yellow bus on big black wheels drove down the rode and down the hill outside our house window, it was also raining outside. Take risk? Don't take the risk and drive to school. "Uhhhhhhhh guess we're taking your car.....?"

Oli said barely above a whisper while I sighed. "Yeah alright lemme grab our umbrellas."

I pulled out of the drive way of our home, the headlights of my beautiful violet coloured Honda civic who mind you had been really cheap, shining light through the liquids that fell from the sky. My windshield wipers swept the rain off the windows occasionally as I kept my eyes on the road.
"Man I want some music, your so boring."

I snorted, but kept my eyes on the road nonetheless. I had just only recently gotten my license, and while I had been driving for a long while even before I had my permit due to my cousins love for dirt biking and four wheel driving. I would not risk it for the safety of my brother and myself.
"Pick a song we'll both enjoy."

"Yeah yeah, don't pull a mom on me, my car my song bullcrap." Oli mocked me in condescending voice as he fussed over the Bluetooth and his phone.

"Make sure it's music I can handle in the morning, I can't deal with hype or adrenaline rushing music so early in the morning." I said ignoring his prior statement.

"Blah Blah Blah." He mocked back as he finally decided on a song.

The song tsuna awakens began to play.
"That anime song from Katekyo Hitman Reborn seems pretty good for right now, it's so different from all those other anime themes. Like this is so noble, I dunno how to explain it."

Oli began his lecture of how Katekyo Hitman Reborn was the world's greatest anime." I agree to some extent, alot of the characters weren't developed that well. Like I wish they could've been wielded better. Also the only badass female character in that anime is Lal, Kyoko is a total wimp. Haru is pretty flimsy to. "

I stated back blankly, as I drove the car down a narrow rode so as to pass a bunch of traffic.
" Okay I agree about the girl part, but what side character do you think wasn't utilized real well?"
