   I was awakened by the alarm, which was ringing very annoyingly.

I groaned as I got out of bed. I went straight into the bathroom as I began brushing my teeth and washing my face.

I did my skincare routine before getting out and going back into my room.

I picked out a white t-shirt that had long sleeves. I chose light washed jeans that dropped down till my ankles. It was getting near to fall and it was getting colder each day. I picked out some white fluffy headphones to cover the cold air from entering my ears since it sents me shivers. [Outfit claim at the cover]

I wore only some powder, mascara, blush and lip gloss as usual. I like keeping a simple look on my face everyday. I didn't like those heavy, dark makeup anyways.

I went into Lily's room but I didn't find her there so I assumed that she was in the kitchen.

And my assumptions were correct, she was in the kitchen with her mouth full of bread. Her little hands held a half bitten sandwich with sauce dripping down the bread.

I laughed at the sight and went over to her.

"Lily, careful. You're gonna mess up your outfit" I told her as I went to the fridge to grab some milk and cereal. It was a basic breakfast but it filled me up, or at least I expected it to.

Lily giggled, "It's really good, you should try some." She said as she offered me her half bitten sandwich which I declined.

"No thanks, it's half bitten. Anyways, We're going to pick Lesley up and drive her with us" I said as I munched on my cereal.

"Really?! I've missed her so much" Lily said, way too excited as she emphasized on the much.

"Yep, we don't wanna keep her waiting so you better go wash your hands" I said as I took the spoon of my cereal.

She nodded and rushed to the kitchen sink.

I grabbed both of our backpacks as I shouted, "Come to the car when you finish!"

I heard a loud "Okay!" as I went inside the car.

I buckled my seat as Lily ran to the car with a bear in her hands. She went into the backseat since she knew that Lesley would be sitting here.

"What's that in your hands?" I questioned as I looked at the mirror which shows a smiling Lily. I loved seeing her happy or smiling.

"It's Lesley's, I borrowed it from her so that I can buy the exact same one" Lily exclaimed with a smile.

I chuckled, "Well okay then. We'll head out to her right now." I said as I turned on the engine and began driving.

"Thank you for letting me borrow the bear, Les!" Lily said, handing Lesley the bear a smile.

Lesley took it as she reciprocated the smile, "No problem, little Lily" Lesley said before leaning back in the car seat.

She told me to open a song which the three of us liked so of course I had to pick Taylor Swift.

The four of us, Andrew, Xavier, Lesley and I liked Taylor Swift. We would always listen to it when we hang out, especially at some parties.

We reached Lily's school a while later and I dropped her off and bid goodbyes before getting back in.

"Yo, there's a club nearby. I know the owner. I think the four of us should go" Lesley nudged me and I began driving to our school.

I shrugged, "I don't know...I'm not the party type of person and you know it" I said.

Lesley rolled her eyes, "Come on bae, you only live once. And it's our last school year, we have to enjoy it." Lesley said.
