Ally's P.O.V
-----------------
I was in deep, perfect, dreamy, amazing, sleep when, of course, my amazing alarm clock started off! Why? Why must I be dragged off my bed at such an early time? I mean, look at how comfy my bed is! I'm supposed to stay in it! It's the love of my life!
"Affz" I sighed getting up, not worth debating myself if it's a battle neither can win.
I grunted grabbing my clothes and went inside the bathroom to take a cold shower so I could wake myself up before taking breakfast and going to school. School! I think stepping in the shower, School means Stevie and Stevie means my heart racing, not that I know what that means, or maybe I do, it just means that I really want to talk to her and be friends, because friends. I laughed a little at my own thoughts as I finished showering and got off it grabbing my towel to dry myself.
When my body was all dry, I dressed myself and dried my hair so I could make it look as it always did, like, amazing!
As I walked past my room to get my backpack I noticed my beanie hanging on top of my desk and even tho I was wearing a cut tank top, I just really wanted the beanie so I put it in my head, BECAUSE I FREAKIN LOVE BEANIES! Only then did I go downstairs to eat breakfast with my family, who was already waiting for me.
Breakfast was silent, because everybody in my house is always too sleepy at this time to say anything to each other, which is probably for the best. Really, the rest of the time, we're normal, I swear.
I put my backpack over my shoulder and left the house, iPod in one hand and earphones on the other as I put them on for my walk to school. I scrolled through many artists until Alt-J caught my attention and I couldn't help but put the song "Taro" on. That sucker always made me whanna dance when it got to that part that... I started dancing in the middle of the sidewalk as I kept walking to school, because, iPod in pocket, hands free and daz all I need.

Stevie's P.O.V
--------------------
I step outside my house breathing the fresh air and I smile forgetting the deadly routine I go through every morning, just so I can feel like this. And when I say routine, I don't mean makeup, I mean getting up two hours earlier just so I can spend one hour delaying the alarm clock and the other treating myself and eating. Weird but the sensation of getting out of the house, after giving yourself all the attention in the world, is the best thing in the world.
I had just started my quiet walk to school when I noticed Ally on the other side of the pavement and, to be honest with myself, my heart skipped a beat with all the rushed beating.
I never met Ally, but I noticed her way too many times. The first time I noticed her was on the talent show our school hosted 2 years ago, we were both in it and she went before me. She played her guitar and her voice soothed me as she sang. After that I couldn't stop noticing the little things.
The way she talked and the way she laughed with her friends. After I noticed her existence I noticed all the things I didn't before, for being too caught up on my own world, like the so many classes we had together or that her locker was not on the same hallway as mine but not that far away, and sometimes, I just enjoyed looking at her from a distance.
I was so caught up on my own thoughts while looking at who I had already named my crush that I almost stumbled on my own feet when I was getting close to school. Almost like the force was telling me to break eye contact. I chuckled at the thought and got in school heading straight to my locker.

Only when I saw her running inside the school did I notice that Stevie was walking behind me on the other side of the pavement. I couldn't help but smile as I caught a glimpse of her, I just hope she didn't see me dancing before, I chuckled

I decided it was best to go inside and search for my best friends Steph and Madison, and so I did, finding them short after. They waved at me and as I got there we started planning our next road trip. As friends, we never really liked parties but still we loved to just hang out so we found that parting off to somewhere on the weekends was the best.

We were so lost in plans that I forgot to go to my locker until it rang. Since I would be late anyway and didn't feel like listening to a speech from the teacher I decided it was best to just skip first period, so I told Madison and Steph to head on, I would meet them later.

I slowly walked to my locker and opened it when I got there. I took the things I needed for the classes I would have later and when I turned to my side, after closing the door to my locker, a girl bumped right into me, making me drop my notebook and phone. I didn't even have the chance to see who it was until she immediately got my stuff from the floor and handed them to me.

"Gosh, I'm so sorry", she smiled looking at me concerned.

I smiled back without even giving much thought to it, the one who bumped into me was Stevie, and I couldn't be happier she was distracted enough to do so.

"That's okay Stevie, no worries", I brushed it off but blushed realizing I had said her name.

"How'd you know my name?", she looked at me surprised but never losing the smile she always had on her face.

"Talent show 2 years ago, you went after me", I said after deciding that the truth was always best, "I've been meaning to talk to you ever since, but I didn't want to look weird or awkward, so I suppose you being distracted was great", I chuckled.

"Yeah, I remember Ally, just never thought we were on the same page", she smiled and passed her hand through her dark hair, locking it under her ear.

"Small world, luv", I looked at the time on my phone and then at Stevie, "we're already extremely late, wanna skip class with me?"

"Yes of course, where were you headed?", she asked as we started walking out of school.

"Starbucks, always Starbucks", I laughed and followed suit beside her and as she wasn't noticing I looked over and admired how beautiful she was and how lucky I had been that she bumped me at my locker.
