The alarm went off. It was Avril Lavigne's 'What The Hell'. I blinked a couple of times and checked the time. 4:30. This was going to get some taking used to. Flopping out of bed, I opened my wardrobe and went to the bottom, taking out the huge bottom bit and reaching down below. I took out a box labelled 'Emergency' and opened it.


Sitting there, untouched, were a few old things that belonged to mom when she was my age. Fortunately, she was so amazing that she stuff in her day was still okay to wear now.


As I took out the tank top and denim jacket, I kept thinking the same phrase. 'It's for the best'. Was it? After putting the tank top on and throwing the denim jacket over it, I put the denim shorts on. They reached my a**. They were almost up my a**. I sighed. It's for the best. I did my hair up so it was tied up loosely. A few strands hung round my face.


The makeup was h*ll. Carefully I put mascara, moisturiser and lip gloss on. I liked natural look. Even though the clothes made me look like a B****.


I checked the time- 6:30. Oh My God. I cannot believe it took that long for me to get ready. Usually I had barely any time. This better make an impression. I picked up my phone and dialled Preston's number.


"Hello?" He asked, groggily.


"Heey!" I purred. Oh God. This feels so wrong.


"fuse?" He asked, confused.


"It's Jo." I snapped. "And yes."


He sounded as if he was fixing himself- which was just stupid. "Why are you calling me, Jo?"


I giggled that annoying girly giggle I'd seen Melanie and Emma do so often. "Oh, Preston! You're so funny!" What was I saying? Why was he funny?


"Uh... Okay!"


"Look..." I giggled. Oh my God. If I weren't me I would slap me. I was being so annoying. "My ride cancelled last night and I was wondering if you- the hot" LIE "se*y" LIE "Amazing" LIE "Preston would give me one?" I raised my voice. "Pretty please?"


"Well..." I could hear his smirk. "Only if you went on a date with me after school."


Okay, show time Jo. "Preston..." I pouted. "If you pick me up today I will go on a date with you and I will kiss you in front of everybody."


"REALLY?" He asked, his voice high.


"On one condition." I smiled.


"Yeah?"


"You drive me to school every day after that."


"Of course. See you at seven!"


"byyye!" I blew a kiss into the phone.
