'Maeve! Maeve! Wake up!' Maeve's mother, Natalie, shouted from downstairs. Maeve got out of bed and put on her clothes, she picked her blue, light washed jeans with a purple butterfly pattern on them. "Hmm' She said thinking to herself what top she would wear today, she decided on a cropped white tanktop with a cute purple vest. Maeve put on some mascara and lipgloss and then she combed her long, but messy blonde hair, put two lilac butterfly clips in her hair and she went downstairs. Her mom had already made breakfast, she had made pancakes! Maeve loved pancakes it was one of her favourite foods! Maeve was already running a bit late so she quickly ate her pancakes. 'Mom, can you bring me to school?' Maeve asked, her mom agreed and together they drove to school. Maeve went to an Christian, all girls school, her mom said it was because she didn't want her to get distracted by boys.
~20 minutes later, at school~
Maeve, completely out of breath, runs to her locker. She puts her jacket in the locker and runs to her class. 'Just on time' Mr. Jones said while the school bell rang, 'This is the third time this week you where almost late for my class, if this continuous I will have to contact your parents. Did you at least make the homework?' 'I'm sorry sir, yes I've made the homework'. Maeve responded. 'Good, now quickly take a seat.' He said. Maeve was looking out the window when she thought she had heard her name, now again louder, she looked up and Mr. Jones was looking at her 'What is the answer Maeve?' He said. 'I am sorry what was the question again?' Maeve responded. Mr. Jones quickly replied: 'Aha, so you weren't paying attention now were you? I will contact your parents, this has been going on for too long now!' Maeve looked sad but she knew that she shouldn't go against him, that would only cause her more trouble.
~The end of the school day~
Maeve called her mom to come pick her up, she answered :'Hey Maeve, do I need to come pink you up?' 'Yes, please' Maeve responded. Around ten minutes later her mom arrived, Maeve walked to the car and went to sit in the back seat. Her mom looked at her with a disappointed face and said: 'Maeve, Mr. Jones called me this morning, he said that you haven't been paying attention is his class.' Maeve told her that it was true, that she hadn't been paying attention. 'I'm sorry mom, school has just been hard.' She then said to her mom.
~At home~
Maeve was going to have a 'Girls night' with her mom and sister, they still call it that instead of a family evening. It's still hard for Maeve's mother, Natalie, to process that he is gone, Maeve's father, he died in a car accident nine years ago, Maeve doesn't remember her father very well but her sister Melanie does, she was eight when the accident happened. A few hours later, Natalie called the girls downstairs for dinner, they were going to eat French Fries, Maeve's and Melanie's favourite food. They all ate silently. When they where done eating, the sisters went to get everything ready for the Girls night, they had tons of make-up, nail polishes and food. They picked out a movie to watch: Mean girls. It was Melanie's favourite movie, Maeve and her mother also loved it. After everything had been set ready, they watched the movie and did there nails. A few hours later when the movie was done they did there make-up and just started chatting. 'And did you girls meet any cute boys today at school?' Mom asked. They both replied 'No!' in unison. Melanie did have a crush, only Maeve knew that, Melanie was a real 'Hopeless romantic', al least that's how Maeve would say it. They where all very tired so they cleaned up and went to bed.
~The next day ~
Maeve woke up at 10:30, she was so happy, it was Saturday. Today Maeve would go to the shopping center, she absolutely LOVED shopping. She was going to go with Nydia, she was her best friend. Maeve decided to get dressed she wore a very cute white dress with pastel pink flowers embroidered on it. Light pink was her favourite colour. She went downstairs to get some breakfast, she ate some cereal and headed out to the mall.
~ At the mall ~
Maeve waited at the mall for 10 minutes and Nydia still wasn't there, then she got a call from Nydia. 'Nydia where are you!? I've been waiting here for 10 minutes!' Maeve asked 'I'm sorry Nydia responded, we went to the hospital and turns out my mom is very sick. I'm at the hospital right now, I'm sorry for ditching you.' She responded. Maeve apologized to her and said it was okay. Maeve then had to think about what she should do now, I mean she was already at the mall so she was definitely staying there. She decided to go to the closest beauty store 'Youtyful' is what is was called, she had never been there before. She was standing in the store when a girl came up to her. 'Hey you have very pretty hair and I love your outfit!' She said, Maeve said thank you and looked back at the products, 'I am Jade, can I get your number?' She said. 'I guess, I mean yes of course!' Maeve responded. Maeve got Jade's number and saved it to her phone, Jade said that Maeve should call her if she ever wanted to meet again, if not then don't call she said. Maeve went home shocked.
~ At home ~
'Hey mom, hey sis, I'm home!' Maeve said, her mother and sister where both very busy and they just said a quick 'Hi'. Maeve went upstairs into her room and debated whether she would call Jade or not, she decided that she would call. She called Jade, Jade almost immediately answered. 'Hey, so you want to go on a date? Is tomorrow 2:30 pm okay?' 'Yes ofc, I can do tomorrow 2:30 pm'. 'Great, see you then!' Jade said as she ended the call. Maeve felt weird, she layed in bed thinking about Jade the entire time, was Jade gay? Was she?? No, I can't be gay I've had crushes on boys before, I'm not gay, right?
Maeve decided to get her phone and look it up: 'Am I qay quiz', aha, Buzzfeed, I mean it could do no harm to take that quiz right?
I hope you liked this first part! I'm working on more rn <3
