Was It Destiny?

Smiles Are Skin Deep. .

For some reason, I never found waking up a nice thing, but having Chloe next to me, I found myself dreading going to bed. The small robot has been functioned to wake up and cry every 4 hours. What kind of a sick function is that?

Groaning, I got up as my alarm clock rang for the 5th time. Rubbing my eyes sleepily, I looked at the clock on the bedside table and widened my eyes.

"How the hell is it 7:30?" I screeched as I shot out of bed and rushed to the bathroom. Hearing the girl's chatter, I knew they were up and about. Gits. They could've woken me up.

As soon as I'm done with my bathroom errands, I run to my closet before wrenching it open. Browsing through the choices, I finally settle on a nice black t-shirt and skinny jeans. Quickly doing my hair in a fishtail braid, I finished the look with my black converse. Grabbing Chloe, I rushed downstairs to find all my sisters waiting for me.

I blinked as I skid to a stop. My sisters are waiting downstairs, completely ready with their backpacks and prim and proper uniform? This has never happened before.

Walking down the rest of the stairs calmly, I stopped in front of them and analyzed each of them.

"Who are you and what have you done to my sisters?"

"Whatever," said Alexis before turning away and walking to the porch.

I frowned as I looked at her.

"What's up with her?" I asked Aundrea.

"I don't know. But don't you think we should go, Destiny?"

I jumped as I realized that we had only ten minutes left.

"Crap," I muttered under my breath before clearing my throat, "Okay, let's go kids!"

*****

Dropping my sisters off before I finally go to my own school can be a major pain in the ass at times. Like now. If I were to go straight to my school, then I wouldn't have to worry about anything. But dropping them off, and saying goodbye a gazillion times, makes me extremely late at times. Like now.

Rushing to the main entrance, I spotted Tyler, and by the looks of it, he had spotted me too- he was walking towards me. I groaned as I realized that I'm going to be a few more minutes late because of him.

"Hey buttercup." He greeted me with a smirk, big surprise there.

"Hey Tyler, about Friday-"

"Excited? Obviously yes," he cut me off looking extremely pleased with himself. I frowned before clearing me expression- why not have a little fun while I'm at it. Besides, I'm already late, it won't hurt if I'm a fw more minutes late.

"Excited?" I started in an over dramatic voice, "Of course Tyler! Don't you remember what I told you? I'm in love with you remember? I know I said I was joking the other day, but that was only because I couldn't handle the rejection. But when thought about it, I realized that I just want you to be happy. It's okay, Tyler, you don't have to reciprocate my feelings. I understand," I finished sadly.

Tyler looked dumb founded to be precise. He was speechless and the only thing that escaped his mouth was a simple 'Err...' which is not even a word. I grinned as I took in his expression.

"Idiot," I said with a smirk of my own, "You are so gullible. Anyway, what I was trying to tell you is that Ruby and I can both go on Friday with you, so feel special."

"And why is that?" He asked me getting some colour back on his poor face.

"We cleared up some things just so we can go. So there you go, Tyler, you have us both on Friday," I said and without waiting for a reply, I walked away, heading to my class.
