Monday morning was as it usually was. My alarm woke me up from my zombie like slumber and i threw on a sports bra's and a black sweater with my favorite blue jeans. I applied my makeup, combed through my hair with my fingers and rushed downstairs to get food. Mom was still sleeping, even though it was 7 and she would have to be at work in an hour.I checked my phone, 7:45. I quickly ate and brushed my teeth, grabbing 10$ from mom's wallet for lunch. Then there was a honk, and i rushed down the porch steps, jumping the fourth one because i hated the sound it made when people step on it. Sydney was waiting for me in his car, I ran to it.
I climbed in and was embraced by the warmth of the heated car. Sydney looked to me and smiled, leaned in, and kissed me. Grabbing my waist and rubbing his hands up and down my body, I pull away, knowing he'll desperately want more and that...i had to get to school. He smiles, and we drive for what seems like a long time until we pull into the school parking lot. He gets out first and opens up my door, carefully gripping my waist, making sure i land safely on the ground. He pulls me into him and kisses my check and interlocks our hands. People stare and i blush.
"They love you", Sydney says.
"I love you" I say with a smile, and Sydney says nothing. We walk inside and meet up with our friends, separating ways. I head down to the band room and see Alex, she waves at me and smiles.
"Hey" i say.
"Hey", she says handing me her red lipstick.
"Do you have the black one?" i ask as i set my bag down on a chair.
"Yeah, here" she says handing me it. I pull out my hand mirror and apply.
"Wheres Jamie?" i ask.
"She's gonna be late, her brother had another blood loss", she says it like it's the usual deal and that thats what happens on a daily basis. People lose blood. But for Danny, it did. I remember the first time Danny had a loss. A whole 4 pints of blood in a car accident. Ever since then, he lost blood from different parts of his body all the time. He slowly was falling apart, but Jamie had been by his side whenever he needed it for the past 2 years.
I go too the corner of the room where my blonde electric guitar lay in it's perfect case. Mrs. G had let me keep it there ever since she heard me play, a "real gift" she called it. I began tuning it and hear Alex setting up her drums. Then a clacking of heels enters the room.
"Hey bishes!", it's Haley. Her annoying white girl voice, and her loud obnoxious shoes.
"Shut up", i say, "your almost as bad as my mother".
"But without the boobs" Alex chimes in.
Haley drops her book bag and heads to the keyboard and begins messing with the sounds, trying to find the one she had played last weekend. I check my phone again, 8:13.
"Guys, we gotta start, we only have like 15 minutes to practice" i said.
"Kk" Haley's high pitched voice replies. I couldn't stand her, she was all pinky and cheeky and just utter blahh. But she had an amazing piano skill and she was Jamie's childhood friend so we had let her in the band. She didn't match the image, or even like the name, but she was good and she was stupid enough to not notice that me and Jamie treat her like shit.
"Alright guys lets go" i said. Everyone got in their, what Mrs. G called, "ready positions". Which to me is a total sex preference.
"5,6,7,8!" i count off like in those movies, but right about to start, Jamie comes running in.
"Sorry...I'm", more trying to catch her breath, " late...Danny....whoo...that had to be the hardest i've ran since the pacer test!"
"It's cool" Alex says and i nod as if agreeing with what she's saying. Then, the bell rings.
