The life of Saffron.

Hi! This is my first proper story so please don be critical, actually do be critical I need it... I would love feedback and advice. Thanx!!!! Marom13 :D

CHAPTER 1.

Saffron opened her bleary eyes and turned over in her warm bed to check her alarm clock, SHOOT she whispered evilly ' Ben is gonna get it today' Ben her most ANNOYING brother had set her alarm clock for an hour and a half late. she now was going to be late for school and she still had to milk the cow. She got out of bed her temper boiling. Saffron walked into the kitchen to see Ben smirking up from is bowl of 9 weetbix, 'have a sleep in?' he asked. Saffron went to the fridge grabbed a jug of milk and..... ahhhhh Ben yelled as cold milk dripped down his neck and through his scol uniform. 'Have an early morning shower this morning' Saffon asked with a snooty smile. She then quickly slipped on her gumboots and a sweater over her pjs and went out to fetch Coffee the housecow. Shaking the food in one hand and holding the bucket in the other she walked over to the paddock and put a halter on Coffee and led her into the miling stall. 'Good girl' she whispered as she sat down on the stool and started milking. Ping, ping ping the peaceful sound of the milk hitting the tin bucket made her drowsy again but she kept at it and finished in record time just to hear the school bus stopping outside her house, 'nooooooooooooo' she wailed as she wathched Ben climb on in his normal clothes and the bus pull away and carry on driving. She though that she may as well just go and feed Comet (her horse) and then give Jess her friend down the road a call to ask her to givr her a lift.  She shook her bucket of pellets, oil and molasses as she wathched her beautiful bay standardbred horse come down the dirt track of his paddock. 'Hey boy' she said as she fed him his food and scratched his withers. Saffron giggled as he butted her tummy looking for apples in her pockets. 'Not today boy, sorry Ben set my alarm late so I was in a rush'. She turned around to go back and get ready for school. Her Mum smiled sypatheticly at her as she walked in, all her little brothers and sisters sitting around the table 'Ben told me what happened she said with a slight grin' its not funny Mum Saffron grumbled as she ate the warm porridge her Mum had made. Saffrons Mum never let her have toast for breakfast as she thought it was good to have a 'great start to the day'. 'Im gonna give Jess a call and ask if she can pick me up' Saffron said. 'Good idea'. Saffron headed upstairs to the to the bedroom she shared with her 2 year old sister. She looked at herslf in the mirror imagining waht Rachel he snootiest girl in school would say if she saw her like this, without her hair brushed and milk spalletterd all over her top she looked quite a mess. She brushed her dark glossy hair into a ponytail and had a shower and slippped on her uniform looking at it in distaste, how boring she thought I wish our school had no uniform at all.

CHAPTER TWO.

'Im soooo glad you came with us!' Jess shreiked leaning out the window 'I have some majorly EXCIITING NEEEWS'!!!! Oh and if you are wondering, yes Jess is a very enthusiastic person. 'Spill!' Saffron said in a bit of a quieter voice. 'Drumrooooooooooollllll' Jess yelled to the amusement of Saffrons Mum. Saffron gave her mum a hug and then jumped in the car 'so?" she said expectantly as they drove away. ' Maurie Beatson won horse of the year on My Gollywog...... who happens to be half standardbred!' 'Seriously?' Saffron asked. 'SERIOUSLY'! Jess shrieked again so happy for her standardbred owning friend, whom all the posh riders at crestin high made fun of just coz of the breed of her horse. 'AAAN' ..... 'Jess please calm down' her 18 year old brother Mike asked from the drivers seat, 'some of us are normal you know.' 'Normal eaquals boring she retorted', 'anyway I was saying how DRUM ROOOLLLL........I won a pair of spurs knee high leather riding boots but Ive already got a pair soooo TADA!' Saffron gasped as she saw Jess pull a pair of shining leather booots from a plastic bag. 'Happy early birthday!' 'Thankyou soooooooo much Jess they are beautful, Saffron siad hugging her friend tight ;your'r the BEST!'  'I knew you would like them' Jess said 'try them on'. Saffron tried them on and they fit perfectly. Saffron arrived at school with Jess and they walked through the  black iron gates of crestin High. Delta and Hanna Saffrons other friends joined them off bus 2, hey Saffy guess what??' Hanna asked. "what" Saff asked, a small smile stretching over her face, she knew what this meant. Mum said she can take us surfing today!" The 4 girls were FOREVER tryying to convince Hannas mum to take them to Omaha surf beach. "The waves are 1 metre annnd the wind is only 2 km p/h so its absolutely PERFECT condidtions" Hanna hugged her firend in sheer joy. "cool, well txt our mums to see if we can come by and pick up our boards and go after school' Delta said happily. Jess, Hanna and Saffron were the more exuberant ones but Delta was a bit more laid back and slightly shy, she had long blonde hair and a pretty face with big blue eyes. Jess had black shortish hair, dark tanned hair from being outside on her horse and surfing, she also worshiped her pair of doc martins and wore them every day with black jeans and her favorite sweatshirt ( even though Delta was always trying to convince her to wear more feminine things she wouldnt have any of it). Hanna had light brown  crazy curly brown hair and a tall slim frame  and had an obbsession with being a cowgirl (dont ask) and she was onsessed with matchmaking. Saffron was... just Saffron she was a chocolate and caffeine aholic and her fave was chocolate covered coffee beans.  She loved, her horse and like all the others, Surfing.
