It was April 26, it was a sunny day here in Utah. I woke up late for school and hurried to get dressed so I wouldn't be late. It was my first day of senior year and then it would all be over, I thought to myself as I ran down stairs to catch my mom to head off to school.
Star: Hey mom!
Malissa(mom): Hey honey! How did you sleep? She said as she was running around the house.
Star: I slept well! What are you looking for?
Malissa(mom): My keys, I can't find them anywhere. Have you seen them when you're going to be late to school!?
Star: No, I haven't, sorry. Would you like me to just catch the bus real quick?
Malissa(mom): Yeah I think you might have to. I have no clue we're I put those freaking keys!
Star: Okay well I'm going to head out then do you think you will be able to pick me up?
Malissa(mom): Yeah I should be able to just make sure you have your phone on you and I'll text you if I can't.
Star: Okay well I'll see you after school bye!
On the way to the bus stop
Star: Ugh first day senior year I hope it goes well.
Star: The last years of high school wasn't great to say the least. I'm not a very social kid and never really had any friends.
Star: Hopefully this year will be better!
On the bus
Star: It's so loud in here I wish I brought my headphones but I forgot them as I was trying to hurry to catch the bus.
Star: I'll just have to deal with it I guess. Might as well play crossy road on my phone.
Bus driver: We're here please get off the bus nicely and head into the school!
Star: Finally I remember now why I have my mom take me to school
In class
Teacher: Hello everyone and welcome to your senior year of English!
Teacher: Most of you I've had in previous years but why don't we have introductions!
Teacher: Let's start from the right of the classroom.
They went around tell it came to star
Star: (stands up) hi my name's star Hernandez I've been in this school for 4 years now and my favorite color is red.
Star is platinum blond, more of a tomboy look, she doesn't hate people but she loves her personal space, she has green eyes, and listens to music a lot.
Teacher: Great job star you may sit down.
Star: Huh the boy next to me must be new ive never seen him before.
Boy: (stands up) Hello I'm Micheal I just moved here and my favorite color is red.
Micheal is tall, he has black fluffy like hair, he dresses like an emo boy but in reality has the personality of a golden retriever, and he also listens to music a lot!
Star: huh Michaels his name, he doesn't seem too bad I probably won't talk to him though.
After class
Star: (walking out the class room when someone stops her, she turns around) Hello?
Micheal: Hi! I'm the new kid haha I sat next to you.
Star: Oh yeah I remember. Is there something you need?
Micheal: No haha I'm just trying to make friends!
Star: Oh well I'm star, nice to meet you.
Micheal: I'm Micheal nice to meet you too!
Star: How have you liked it here so far?
Micheal: It's been good!
Star: Well I got to go before I'm late to my next class.(starts walking away)
Micheal: Wait! Is there any chance I could get your number so we can talk and maybe be friends?
Star: (he wants my number!) Uhh sure it's—
Micheal: Thank you I'll text you later byeee.
Star: bye.
After school
Star:I wonder when Mom's going to get here. She's taking forever. It's already been 10 minutes.
As time continues to pass Star starts to get worried.
She ends up calling her mom and it just goes to ring tone. She decides to just walk home as she doesn't live very far.
Star: I hope moms okay she should be ...right.
Star ended up making it home but as she was on her way she noticed how quiet it had been. She didn't leave in a busy neighborhood but there were always a few kids playing or someone having a BBQ.
As she opens the door she doesn't see anyone. She only lives with her mom and dog so maybe they're just in their room?
She checks every room to find it empty. She tries calling again but yet again no answer. As she's pacing around the house she hears a noise… none like she's never heard before it was like clicking.
Click,click,click,click as it slowly seems to get louder.
She runs upstairs in a panic not knowing what to do.
The best thing she could think of was to call Micheal.
Star: Crap! What should I do? Who can I call? Who can help me? What is happening? Where is Mom?
She says scrolling through her phone finding the contact.
Star: I found it! Hurry hurry!
The phone rings.
Micheal: Star! Omg you're okay!
Star: What is going on? What is that thing?
Micheal: I don't know, just hide! Don't let it see you! I'll come find you!
Star: Okay I am at…
Micheal: Okay! I'm coming, stay put!
Star: Okay…
This story is for fun but I do hope y'all enjoy it!
