Peyton's POV
"Moorrnninngg!" Who was that? I sat up and rubbed my eyes. "Oh hi Maria" I said still rubbing my eyes. "It's the first day of school! It's Junior year! You can't be late!" I looked over to my clock. 8:15! I ran to the bathroom and almost slipped on the tile floor. I skipped a shower and just sprayed Febreeze all over my body. "Aw gross" said Maria walking up behind me. I shrugged it off and brushed my teeth. I got dressed in denim skinny jeans and a blue flannel top. I ran to the kitchen except a little slower this time, and grabbed my phone and an apple off the dining table. We ran out the door.
I looked at the old 1977 grey dodge charger that Maria drives and shook my head. "What?" she said "It got passed down to me! It's not my fault" "I know" I leaned back the chair and laid there, closing my eyes. Keeping her eyes on the road Maria slapped my arm and boy did it hurt. "Ow!" I yelped. I sat up from my seat and looked at her, pouting. "I didn't slap you that hard" she said. "Besides, I don't want you snoring away and drooling on the seat" I stared at her. "Hey! I don't do that!" I joked. She gave me the 'Are you serious face' "Okay! Maybe I do. But I can't control it!"
We arrived at school. I slipped my phone out of my pocket and checked the time. 8:28. "RUN!" I screamed. We ran down the halls. I then realized that I had my slippers on the entire time. I walked into class and everybody looked at me. I saw two boys staring at me. One of them whispered something into his friend's ear and laughed. "Please, take a seat" My teacher said looking at my slippers. I didn't realize that I was staring at the two boys because when I walked by to take an empty seat, the boys fluttered there eyes at me jokingly.
I laughed it off making them unsatisfied. Thank god Maria was in my first period because I almost lost all of my patients. They kept on poking me with pencils when the teacher wasn't looking. Darn you! Why did our seats have to be right next to these childish boys? "Just as I was about to say something to them Maria held my wrist, tight. "Don't say anything to them!" She whispered. I nodded and listened to the teacher. Math. I'm good at the subject but it's just so darn hard! Once the bell rang signaling that class is over, Maria and I walked out of class. The boys who were teasing me brushed their shoulder against mine.
"Watch where yo-" A hand grabbed my shoulders and covered my mouth. "Relax Peyton" I rolled my eyes and said, "Boys will be boys I guess" I opened up my locker and grabbed my text book for my next class. I turned back to Maria. "What class do you have next?" I asked. "Biology, you?" I glared down at my schedule. "Ah darn English" I waved good-bye and we parted our ways. I walked up the stairs to my next class. Before I made it up, I saw my arch-enemy Amanda. She was making out with my so called best friend, Max. Maria, Max, and I met in pre-school. We've all been best friends until Amanda showed up.
For some reason that girl just absolutely hated me! I don't know why but she just did. She always pushed me and stole my snacks. It was until 8th grade that Amanda asked Max out. He wasn't too sure knowing that we hated each other. One day he came over my house and we watched netflix together, eating some delicious popcorn my mom made.. He brought up Amanda.
"Amanda asked me out.."
"I know that" I said stuffing my mouth with popcorn
"Do you mind?" He said nervously.
I looked at him with eyes wide. My mouth was still stuffed with popcorn.
"I do mind!" I mumbled
"Alright.." He looked down at the ground
The next day I saw him and Amanda having a make out session next to my locker. She opened her eyes and winked at me. Ever since then they've been going out. We haven't talked until today
