Lucy's Pov

As I heard my name get called for the writers award of excellence, I quickly but carefully stood up and began to walk up the stairs and onto the stage. I had been preparing for this moment for a really long time, but as I was getting ready to accept the award and give my short thank-you speech, my mind drew a blank.

Crap

"Uh... t-thank y-y-you for umm.." Is all I'm able to spit out. I looked down at the award and take a deep breath. You can do this Lucy, just accept the stupid award say a few thank-you words and sit your butt back down! I mentally yell at myself.

I gain more courage and look back out to the crowd of hundreds of people.  I take one last breath, opening my mouth to say something but all that comes out is – "BEEEP" the crowd starts to laugh and I try again. "BEEEP BEEP BEEEP" everyone is practically crying their eyes out in laughter and I start to hurry off the stage full of embarrassment. But of course I stupidly trip over myself and I fall off the stage. I can see the ground mere inches from my face when suddenly it all goes black.

I shoot up and look around to figure out where the heck I am. "It was" I pause and look down at my open palms "a dream?"

I step out of my warm bed turning off the beeping alarm, with a yawn and stretch to wake myself up. I step over to the window and peer outside. "Looks like another rainy day" I sigh out in annoyance. With the rain it's always really gloomy, and with me already being a pretty depressed person it just makes everything 10 times worse.

I walk over to my large closet and decide on wearing a light blue sweatshirt from Pink and some dark jeans with my brown Uggs. (first outfit in the media) I take my clothes into the bathroom with me and start my shower. After a good rinse with my strawberry and vanilla scented soaps and conditioners, I step out and wrap a white towel around myself and blow dry my wet hair, taming my golden locks with a few brushes. I decide to leave my hair down for the extra warmth since its cold out today. Now that I'm mostly dry I put on my clothes and walk out the bathroom and into the hall down stairs to eat breakfast.

"Good morning Miss Lucy,"I hear my favorite maid, Spetto, say to me.

"Good morning Spetto, what's for breakfast today?" I ask walking towards her into the dining room.

"Delicious chocolate pancakes with some bacon and apple juice today miss," she says knowing that chocolate pancakes are my favorite.

"Sounds delicious," I say as I sit down into one of the many chairs at the large table. I watch as my food comes out of the kitchen practically drooling to get a taste. As the plate is set down in front of me I don't hesitate to dig in and eat a large bite of buttery chocolate pancake, and syrup.  "Dis is weally goo," I talk with my mouthful. I watch as Spetto answers with a smile knowing that I was trying to say this is really good.

About 10 minutes later I've finished my food and I'm on my way to school. Because I don't want to burden anyone by being my driver, I normally drive or walk to school myself. Since its rainy today I decide to drive. I get into my white Camaro and begin driving to school. When I pull up I try to stay towards the farther end of the parking lot like usual so that people won't question my nice car. I walk onto campus and start searching for Levy.

"Looking for me?" I hear someone giggle from behind me.  I turn around and see my best friend Levy smiling with a book clutched to her chest.

"Morning!" I say returning her smile. "What book is it today?" I ask since she practically reads a new book every day.
