I wake up, thinking about what to expect when I talk with Emily later. The thing that happened was the thing you'd least expect would happen when you first meet someone. I mean it's not like I didn't want it to happen but, it happened a little sooner than it could've.

I slide out of bed and walk to my dresser, I pull out a random outfit then run to the bathroom to finish getting ready.

I hear my mom call me from downstairs, "Jeffrey, it's time to go!"

I rush down with my backpack on one shoulder.

My mom smiles, "You look nice today."

"I guess so, thanks. Um, are we going now?"

She gestures to the front door and we walk out.

My mom drops me off at the curb in the front of the school then I walk from there.
