    My alarm goes off at exactly 6 am. I groan, but gently loosen my husband's arms.
      I brush my teeth, take a shower and dress up in my clothes for the day.
      I look at the clock and see that it is almost 7 o'clock. So, I quickly rush downstairs in a hurry; to make breakfast before Adrian wakes up.
      As I am cooking breakfast I think about the first time Adrian and I met.

     It was in high school. The first day of senior year. I was 17 and he was 18.
I was the bad girl, who was dirt poor. He was the rich popular kid, that all the girls would flaunt over.

*Flashback Starts
I was walking to school that morning. It was a nice spring day, Of course my mother wouldn't have dropped me off at school because she was still hungover.
My mother, Michelle was a very happy and pleasant woman. But, it all went downhill when my father left her for his secretary. Ever since then she has been a drunk. Sleeping with random men for money, doing drugs and all kinds of bad things.
I arrive at school and am greeted by my friends. None of them know about my situation.
"Hey guys, what's up?"
" Have you heard that the school slut Regina tried to get in Adrian's pants, but he blatantly rejected her", Ryder informs me.
Ahhh yes Regina "slut" Cole. She used to be my best friend and one of us, until she opened her legs for our arch enemy and "supposed" boyfriend Scott Finch.
" Like I care." With that I walk off to my class.
As I am turning the corner to get to homeroom, I bump into something hard.
I look up and realize I bumped into the one and only Adrian Moore.
"Sorry", I reply with a faint blush on my cheeks. Since when do I blush!!!
" My fault, I didn't see you there."
I don't say anything and quickly try to walk away. But, he holds onto my arm.
"I didn't catch your name."
" Nicole", I reply
" Well, Nicole, I'm Adrian nice to meet you"
    When he lets go of my arm, I quickly walk away.

*Flashback over
About 2 days later he asked to go on a date with him. I eventually said yes after he kept on pestering me.
When we were in our senior year of college he proposed.  Three years later, we got married. I am now 24 and he is 25.
I snap out of my thought when I hear Adrian's alarm. I quickly finish cooking breakfast; bacon, eggs, French toast, coffee and apple juice. I plate the food and set the table.
After I finish that I hear Adrian coming down the stairs. He quickly kisses my cheek and grabs his briefcase and morning coffee.
"Aren't you going to eat breakfast?"
" Sorry honey, I have a meeting early this morning." With that he takes his plate and throws the food in the trash. Then quickly rushes out the door.
      That kind of hurt. Now that I think about it, he has been going into work very early and coming home late. Probably just has a lot of work to do.
I make my way to our bedroom and look at myself in the full length mirror. I am wearing a cream colored pencil skirt, black blouse, white cardigan and white ballet flats.
         I look like a loser. I miss showing my piercings and tattoos. I miss my leather jackets and combat boots. But, I changed because I love Adrian.
I just sink down to the floor and cry to myself.
What happened to me????
