Norah's POV:
—---------------------------------------------------------------
(Play: Everybody wants to Rule the World- Tears for Fears)

I was passed out in bed before my phone alarm rang loudly in my ears. I'd groan, reaching over and turning off my alarm. I noticed a text from my friend, jet. "U up?" He asked. He's always been a dry texter and never much of a talker in general. I responded to Jet saying "Yup, Just got up". Almost Instantly Id hear Mike talking with someone from his basketball team downstairs in the kitchen. I'd walk downstairs wearing a crop top and black leggings and Mike would say "Morning Sleepyhead, We can Walk to school and Jet said he can meet us outside the school"

I nodded and grabbed my backpack from the hanger and my sweater since it was getting closer to fall in Eastmill. As Mike would shut the door behind us he would ask "Well, It's the first week of school for us being freshmans, the summer we had in San Francisco was fun but went by so fast, don't ya think sis?". I'd Nod and say "Well I Hope Jet had a good summer , Because I heard he worked on his art all summer long" Mike would say "Well he will have to tell us about it once we talk about our summer breaks during homeroom" As we reached the school jet would wave and yell "Hey losers!" as loud as he possibly could. Clearly someone was excited to be back. Mike wasted no time running over and pulling Jet in for a hug, if Jet's face wasnt smashed into Mike's chest, people would have definitely seen how red it was. I'd laugh and say "Someones excited, right Mike?". Mike would say being all red "Shut up, reminder we all knew each other since the start of middle school so we all grew up together" I'd Hug Jet smiling saying "I missed you so so much!" Mike would say "Reminder hands off, hes mine" I'd snap back Jokingly saying "Jet and Mike sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G". Jet would still be tugging at his shirt, trying to fix it from being wrinkled by the hugs. "Don't worry big boy, I know I'm yours." Jet would chuckle, finally straighten out his shirt.I'd spot my crush Cameron since the start of middle school and cameron would walk over and say "Hello to you too Norah" in a soft tone voice My face would be red as a strawberry and I'd see Mike and Jet Laughing at me as cameron came over and i'd say "H..I" Mike would say "My sister has a crush?!, and since when did you have a cr-" I would say "I talked about him to jet, remember jet?, The Hours id spend squealing on the phone about him snapchatting me photos of him while i was away on my trip". Jet just shook his head laughing. "How could i forget, you talked about him so much I might as well know everything about him" He said. I'd say looking back at Jet "Well we better get to class the 1st bell is gonna ring soon and we dont wanna be late" Mike would say "Lets not forget your tardy marks in middle school you where always late" I'd say "Oh shut up you where always late for basketball" Jet would be standing there just hearing them both fight as they got there stuff out of there lockers Jet would laugh and say "Don't you have a pep rally after 1st period?" Jet would say looking at me and I'd say "Yup, i'm on the cheer squad and Mike is on the basketball team my cheer uni is in my backpack" Mike would say "Norah did this cheer routine in her sleep you know how serious she takes these Jet" Jet would say "How many times have we watched in her middle school, how many times we have gotten tickets" Jet would say "More than i can count" (Timeskip> The Pep rally after 1st period)
