F*** up some commas starts playing signaling my alarm is going off.
* ugh 5 more minutes* I think as I hit the snooze button on my iPhone 6. Ten minutes later, Wishy washy starts playing meaning it's time for me to get up NOW! I groan, rub my eyes, and pull the covers back. I get out my twin size bed and stand up and stretch. I pick out my clothes for the day. A white crop top with ootd written across the front in black letters, a pair of black and white Adidas joggers and a pair of Adidas originals shoes. I leave my clothes on the bed and go into my adjoining bathroom and hop in the shower. After about 25 minutes in the shower I get out and dry off. I brush my teeth and wash my face. Then I wrap a towel around me and go in my room I dry off, lotion, and put on deodorant. Then I put on my clothes and go downstairs. I slept at my dads last night, so when I go downstairs he's the only one up. I walk to the fridge and get a bottle of water then tell my daddy good morning.
"Good morning baby girl, did you sleep okay?"
"Yes daddy, why are you up so early?"
"I gotta go in early "
" oh, well bye daddy I gotta get to school for study hall. "
" bye baby,

be good"
"Okay" I kiss my dads cheek and grab a banana from the counter. I grab the keys to my 2013 Volkswagen Beetle and walk out. I get in the car and drive off.
Hi, I'm Layla I'm 17 and a junior in high school. I am a dark skin girl with dimples, I am pretty thin with a big butt, I have curly hair that stops a little past my shoulders. I live with my mom and siblings in a small 4 bedroom house. My mom and dad have shared custody over me and my brother and sister.

*At school
When I pull up to Williams James High I get out and grab my backpack out the trunk. I start walking towards the school girls are giving me nasty looks and boys are looking at me with lustful eyes. Then I feel someone cover my eyes.
"Guess who" unknown.
"Jay!" I yell and give him a hug
" 😂 hey bestfriend, you miss me" he says while laughing
" Shut up"
Jay has been my bestfriend since the first grade. He's tall about 6'3, dark skinned ,with a dimple in his right cheek, and perfect teeth.
"Where Nae and Destiny" I say as we walk to my locker.
" somewhere around here cakin' "
Nae and Destiny are our other two friends. We all started getting close our freshman year.
" Don't talk about my besties like that " 😒 I say hitting him.
" okay okay. " he says holding his hands up in surrender.

* the bell rings for us to go to class.
"I'll see you later jay"
"Iight. " then we go our separate ways to class. I have Spanish first period. So I have to go upstairs to hall B. When I get to Mr. Bennet's class I take my seat in the middle of the class and do our daily warmups. Just when I finish the last one I look up and this fine ass dude walk in. We catch eyes and I look away quickly. It's gonna be a long class period.
