"melanie! breakfast sweetheart!" the 13 year old girl awoke with a groan. today was her first day of 7th grade in a new school as she'd just moved to LA from florida.

melanie reluctantly got up from her bed and checked the time on her digital clock on her bedside table. 7:49.

"shit!" she exclaimed. her new school started at 8:00. "mom! i told you to wake me at seven!" she said rushing to put on the outfit she prepared last night.

she wore a black tank top to show off her new boobs she got over the summer and black, baggy jeans with a belt. she hoped it wasnt too much for the first day.

she brushed her hair, put on mascara and cherry scented lipgloss. she picked out a few necklaces and bracelets and rushed downstairs after brushing her teeth.

"i made your favourite, pancakes and bacon!" her mom smiled as melanie stepped over the move in boxes.

"don't you think that's a little to much cleavage for the first day?" her mom raised her eyebrows

"what, no! thanks mom!" she smiled, she ate the food as quickly as she could.

"woah, slow down you're gonna throw up sweetie," she mom chucked. mel finished and placed her dishes in the sink.

her mom checked the time on her watch. 7:56 "hunny we gotta leave it's almost eight."

"oh god she said rushing to slip her shoes on, the taste in her mouth weird as she had just brushed her teeth minutes before.

as she stepped out of her door, her hair flowed in the wind as she ran to her car. she opened the door unsuccessfully and looked at her mom to unlock to car.

her mom giggled and got in the jeep. the closer she got to the school, the more nervous she got. she was already 15 minutes late my the time she got there.

the two sat in silence as mariah carey played on the radio. "you ready?" her mom asked, smoothing her hair.

"i mean i guess." mel said wiping her forehead with her soft hands. "bye mom." she said smiling nervously.

"bye sweetie. make friends okay!" she exclaimed watching her daughter hop out of  the jeep, adjusting her tank top.

melanie took a deep breath as she stared towards the school. she held onto her book bag before letting out her breath, she begin to walk towards the school, rolling her neck nervously.

"it's all good, do not start sweating." She says to herself, trying to encourage herself as she walked up the marble stairs.
