The sun splashes across my room through downturned blinds casting light across my bedroom floor. I stare towards my window, head on my shoulder, not yet ready to get out of bed. I only got two hours of sleep last night when I'm supposed to have at least 8.
I groaned sitting up and putting my hair up in a bun, crawling out of bed like a zombie I'm sure. I rubbed my swollen eyes and walked downstairs to get some breakfast
I finished my breakfast which was a bowl of honey, cinnamon cereal and headed upstairs. I threw on a white long sleeve shirt, a pair of leggings and my white high top converse. I didn't feel like doing my hair, so I simply just left it in a bun. I grabbed my bag and keys before going out the door to wait for Emma. She was supposed to be picking me up but I couldn't see her car anywhere, I dialed her number. She answered on the third dialed.
"Emma! Where the hell are you? I can't be late to school!"
"Rose relax, I'm on my way. I overslept" she said
"I noticed, hurry up please" I firmly said
After twenty minutes Emma finally showed up, I ran towards her car and got in.
"I can't believe I'm going to be late, I'm never late!!" I whined
"Stop worrying, one day being late isn't going to hurt you Ms.goodytwoshoes" she said rolling her eyes
I groaned "just drive"
I closed my eyes leaning my head back on the seat and not even ten minutes later Emma turned off the car. Wow, we got to school faster than I thought. I open my eyes and looked out the window to see a Burger King sign.
"Emma, why are we here and not in front of our school!?" I began to panic
"We are already late, might as well have a good breakfast, being one hour late is the same as being 20 minutes late, it won't make a difference. So come on, let's have a feast" she said signaling me to come out of the car
I groaned and followed her. I bought a Small sandwich, Small fries and a small cup of pink lemonade while Emma bought a large sandwich, large fries, five piece chicken nuggets, and a large cup of soda. Damn, this girl wasn't kidding about having a feast.
We finished eating and soon enough we arrived to school. We went to the front office and got a late pass. Now I was on my way to class, most people are already in class but there are still a couple of people loitering in the halls, savoring their last few precious moments of freedom before suffering through mass education.
I breathed in deeply before walking into class going straight towards Mr.Garcia's desk handing him my late pass
"And you are?" Mr.Garcia asks
I placed a strand of hair behind my ear out of a nervous habit and said "I'm Rose, Rose Rodriguez"
"Alright Rose, take a seat and ask your neighbor to explain to you the assignment that is due today" he says opening his laptop
I sigh inwardly, clearly this is one of those classes where you have to teach yourself everything. I turned around walking towards my seat but my clumsy uncoordinated self ran against the edge of the table hitting my hip bone. I bit my lip and closed my eyes trying to hold in a loud whimper. I opened my eyes to notice Devin watching me while chuckling. I felt my cheeks heat up, damn it was getting hot in here
