If someone were to ask me what my favorite class was, I would say math class. But really no one is asking me. 

"Hey weirdo, stop talking to yourself." I glance in front of me and make eye contact with my bestfriend, Alex. can you guys read sarcasm? 

"sorry." I respond and glance down at my paper. Math is my very first class of the day, which I would enjoy if Alex wasn't seated right next to me on the seating chart. My math teacher was old.

she was so old she put us in a boy girl boy girl seats. I sit next to Alex and a guy that needs to shower. 

We were starting a get to know you project, which I assume we will be doing in most of our classes because teachers don't know what to do the first week of school. 

Well instead of a project it was a, stand in front of the class and say three interesting things about yourself, which i'm stuck on the first one because i'm not a very interesting person. 

I contemplate asking Alex what he fins interesting about me, I mean we've known about each other since we were little, but I don't like starting conversation with him so I keep to myself.

My three facts I wrote down were,

1. I love reading

usually I would never admit that out loud in front of a class, but it's an honors class and usually I would be the bully in this case, if you know what I mean, but if you don't it just means I've been in a class with these people all of highschool, same people everytime because there's not a lot of honors kids.

2. I love the outdoors

and finally 3. I like to bake

I smile, proud of myself because I found three interesting things about myself. I guess I am a very interesting person.

"loser." i hear Alex whisper next to me but I don't give him the time of day, It took me a long time to come up with this list.

"next up is Lottie." With sweaty hands I stand up and walk to the front, where most people are still trying to come up with things themselves.

"Hi, I'm Lottie, I enjoy reading, hiking, and baking." I smiled a bit and took a seat after the teacher said thank you.  

I am so proud of myself for going up there. my silent praises came to a halt when I heard a snickering besides me. "you did horrible." I rolled my eyes, who was he to judge, he hadn't even gotten up there- "alex, you're turn."

I glance over and watch as Alex stands up tall, not that he really needs to, he's pretty tall without the extra height- and stand in front of the class, "you guys already know me because I know every single one of you, but in case you were wondering I play sports, specifically football, I am super smart, as to why I'm in this class, and I am very good looking." he smiles and the teacher praises him. I raise my hand and the teacher nods.

"He didn't really state anything interesting, all he did was boost his own ego by saying, and I quote, how good looking and smart he is, that doesn't count." I keep a straight face and glance over Alex a couple times. I earn a few snickers from the class, the teacher immediatly hushes me and my fellow peers by calling the next person up. 

Alex kicks my leg, which results in a leg wrestling match for the rest of the period. 

I am gonna love this class.


_____________________________

Today was a good day. Let me give you a recap, in case you really wanted to know so bad, after math I went to English, which really nothing happened because the teacher talked the whole period, then i went to Culinary, and the teacher also talked a lot, and THEN I went to AP bio, which also the same thing happened. and yea, basically it because I don't have a lot of classes this year because I got those credits over with my first two years, which was a lot of work because I had online classes but now I am freeeee.

I smile as I walk into the student parking lot alone. usually I just wait for my brother by the car because he takes so long, soon, I'll be riding the bus home because of football practice. I need to get myself a car. bad.

my smile drops immediatly when I see another one of my bestfriends, Jessica, standing by Josh's car. 

"Why are you here?" I ask her. My brother wasn't even here so I find it strange she came to talk to me.

"Do not lay your hands on Alex" she said to me loud and clear.

I started laughing until she threw me a look that said I will humiliate you in front of the whole school and I shut my mouth.

"I thought you claimed Josh"

"Well I changed my mind"

Gosh this girl is giving me whiplash.

"Okay" I respond and open the car door to sit inside.

Before I could even move she grabbed the back of my shirt and pulled me out.

"I am warning you, if you dare even look at him I will ruin you" she whispered sharply in my ear.

I was about to respond but she let go of me and ran off.

obsessive much, like I know Alex was good looking, as he declared it to the whole class, but gosh, there is plenty of him to go around, if you know what I'm saying.

"How was your day" my beloved mother asked me and Josh when we arrived home.

I have her a thumbs up and ran up stairs to my room.

I loved my room. I could live in it all day. I had a queen sized bed, shoved in the corner of my room, on the wall that has my door on it. My bed sheets are a light gray with dark gray pillows. I loved the color gray, it helps calm me down.

On the opposite wall there was a little window nook that had a bookcase imbedded in it. It had cute  flower pillows and a off-white  cover. The window had a white curtain with fairy light strung above them. My bed was facing the wall to the right of the door which has my dresser and book case. On the opposite wall was my walk in closet.

My walls are decorated with all sorts of bands and artists, yes, I like Taylor Swift, yes I like Kanye West, deal with it.  Now when I say I like these two artists it just means i listen to a couple of their songs. I have other bands like Metallica and Blink 182, along with Sabrina carpenter, Drake, and olivia Rodrigo. I have a mixed music taste, okay?

Today i was really feeling reveng-y because of Jessica so I decided to putt on some Olivia Rodrigo.

"Vampire" starts playing and I absolutly belt the shit out of those lyrics. 

my chest heaves up and down when the song finishes. Clapping is heard behind me and my heart stops. You wouldn't believe who was standing in my room.

Olivia Rodrigo- just kidding it was Alex. "Nice performance, really need to work on your singing, your voice is a little scratchy." 

"as if you could sing," I cross my arms and Alex glances down at my chest. 

"dinners ready." with that he walks out of my room.
