I groaned while clutching my full stomach. Looking down at the half eaten omelette on my plate not daring to take another bite of the delicious food. "You done?" My mom asked already reaching for my plate before I could answer, but I pushed the plate towards her anyway.
I got up from the table and rushed down stairs and into my bathroom. I used to share it with my older brother Andrew but he's off at college now, my mom and I really miss him. One thing I don't miss about him was that he never cleaned up his messes in the bathroom which drove me insane!
I quickly washed my face, brushed my long dark brown hair and brushed my teeth. I raced down the hall to my bedroom so i could get dressed. It was the last day of school before winter break and my best friend Courtney wanted me to dress up for the 'special occasion', which I of course hate dressing up. She wanted me to wear a dress but after about an hour of arguing over the phone I managed to convice her to let me wear skinny jeans. I put on a pair of dark blue skinny jeans, a horizontal stripe whut and navy blue sweater, and my brown leather boots.
I sprayed some perfume on and packed an overnight bag since I was gonna spend the night at Courtney's house. I ran up stairs grabbed my car keys and was about to head out the door before I heard a voice behind me. "Scarlett are you forgetting something?" I turned around to find my mom holding my lunch pale at the tip of her fingers. I smiled and quickly grabbed it from her hand but before I could escape she wrapped me into a hug. "Now, no drinking if you go to any parties tonight okay?" I frowned and pulled away from her.
"Okay mom" I said while shutting the door behind me.
It's just a stupid sleepover. Its not like we're gonna sneek out and go to a party or something. Doesn't my own mother even trust me? I pushed the thought aside as I jumped into my navy blue GMC and started it up.
It was my dad's old truck which he gave me for my sixteenth birthday. My parents have been divorced since I was ten and I barely get to see my dad anymore since he moved to another town that was two hours away.
I sat for about ten minutes honking the horn in front of Courtney's house before she finally appeared. She was wearing dark skinny jeans, a peach colored V-neck, a black leather jacket with black combat boots which was her normal style. Courtney and I looked exactly the same except her eyes were green and mine were dark brown. We've been best friends since kindergarten and some people have mistaken us for sisters.
"Crank up the music cause Courtney is in the car!" I laughed at her excited attitude and turned up the car stereo to almost full blast.
Rockstar by nickelback was blasting through the speakers as we drove to school. Courtney started to sing along off key but it was funny to watch. Sooner or later I decided to join her and both sang along and jammed out the whole ride to school.
