Perfect

Alex

I must of been lying in my bed for some time, because now it was 2:54PM, I had left school at around 12:30PM....I could have fallen asleep I suppose... There's no point lying in bed all day I thought to myself. I could do something to occupy my mind, I could draw. No. I could cook. No, mum would kill me....I could, go and have a walk. Yes, that is what I will do.

I got dressed in my dark blue skinny jeans, my grey butterfly top and my white trainers. I pack a handbag with money, my phone, tissues, sweets and the spare set of keys. I was all set to go. I put my cardigan on and I left the house. If mum caught me, I would surly be done for. But that was the least of my worries, I knew the Crasher and his gang would be hanging around somewhere, I had to avoid them to avoid humiliation. They normally hang around the park, shame. I would of liked to hang around there. Anyway I was well on my way to the village shop, it was not far from the vast fields. 'Sorry...' I murmur as I accidently bump into a man carrying a suitcase. 'That's all right, hay, shouldn't you be at school?' he stated, I turned around to face him in shock. 'Well sir, I was discharged from school because I was....bullied....' I trail off 'Sorry, I have to go...' I exclaim before running through the empty car park to the shop. Phew, a close escape.

I bought a bottle of mineral water and a packet of diet sweets (they are basically gunny bears, but with minimum sugar and sweeteners). The lady behind the counter was so shocked that I didn't buy more sweets, so she gave me a packet for free. I don't really like cola bottles, but I accepted them anyway, otherwise I might sound suspicious. What child refuses sweets?  Well a child on a diet, which I am, but I don't want her to worry about me, I'm fine.

The sun is shining brightly, the grass is tickling my legs and my hands, the sky is blue and the birds are singing. It was a beautiful, warm day. For a few minutes of my life, everything's was perfect. Then I remembered about mum and her 'boyfriend' and the sun was blocked out by some grey clouds, but it was still warm. I opened my mineral water and the gummy bears, I had a few sips of the water and about 10 gummy bears. To be fair, the full sugars ones tasted a lot better, but that would be the excess sugar making me fat. There weren't many people around. This was a very remote part of the village, especially on a school day.

A ball landing next to my head and I bolted upright in shock. 'I'm sorry, did I hurt you? Are you alright?' a kind voice says sympathetically 'I'm fi...' I tried to say 'I'm fine' but I stopped as soon as I saw who the voice belonged to, a boy with blonde hair and green eyes, who must be around 17. 'Sorry..' he said as he helped me up 'The names Alex, yours?' he asked with a cute smile on his face 'Rosa....Rosa Matthews...' I stutter nervously. We spent the rest of the day together until 6;30PM, then we parted. Alex is 16, and he plays football (we played a game with some of his friends, it was a lot of fun) I like him, I don't know whether I like, like him. I've never been in love before. But I think he is sweet.
