*Beep beep*
*smack*
You groan before rubbing your eyes and looking at the clock that read "7:23am"

You climbed out of bed and choose your outfit for the day

You brush your teeth and hair and make your way to the kitchen "Your awake?" Aunt Becky asks with a confused look "Yep!" You reply in a perky tone "I'm guessing your exchange went well" she says winking at you "Nothing like that but I'll tell you ...

You brush your teeth and hair and make your way to the kitchen
"Your awake?" Aunt Becky asks with a confused look
"Yep!" You reply in a perky tone
"I'm guessing your exchange went well" she says winking at you
"Nothing like that but I'll tell you everything later" you say before leaning down and kissing her forehead

"Oh well have a good day" aunt Becky calls out as you walk out the door

You throw your bag in the car and turn the key in the ignition

*car noises*
*Silence*
"Shit not today" you groan turning the key again

No matter how hard you turned the key and pumped the gas your car would not start

"Damnit" you yell hitting your hands on the steering wheel

You hear a light tap on your window and look over to find Eddie warmly smiling at you

You open your door and he leans down looking in the car

"Need a ride" he asks raising his eyebrows

"I can ask my aunt it's fine" you say grabbing your bag and getting out the car

"It's no problem really we're headed to the same place anyway" he laughs

You nod and begin to follow him to the van parked in his front yard

He opens the passenger door and motions for you to get in

"I can open my own doors Ed's" you say with a smile

"Well when you suddenly can't you know who to call" he laughs shutting your door and getting in on the drivers side

As soon as he starts the van loud music starts blaring through the speakers making you jump a little in your seat

He quickly turns the volume down before driving out of the trailer park

"Sorry" he laughs looking over at you

"It's fine" you say gathering yourself from the sudden scare

The car ride was short and for the most part quite except for when Eddie would ask little questions like

"What's Georgia like" and "how's aunt Becky"

You made your way into the school parking lot and Eddie turned off the van

"Um would you be able to give me a ride home after school" you ask knowing you had no other way home aunt Becky had a shift at the dinner from 3-12 and Steve had work after school
