"Crap! I'm freaking late for school! God , I'm asking for your mercy." I throw my uniform on and put on my black leather shoes.The maroon checkered skirt and white buttoned shirt I'm wearing for school is looking quite nice for someone who dislikes uniform.
I tie my auburn hair in a high half-up ponytail and leave the rest down.Thank goodness I curled it last night.
Looking at my watch, I realize there are only 10 minutes before the first lesson starts. It's 7:50 p.m.! Why didn't grandma or Sarah wake me up earlier?
I shove my arms into my black leather jacket and swing my backpack onto my left shoulder.
"I guess I'm not driving the car today." I take my keys before rushing out of the room.
I really should have slept earlier last night instead of staying at Matt's until 4 o'clock in the morning which resulted in waking up late to school.
Not only I'm going to be late for school , my make up looks like satan .
Despite knowing that I'd be late , I still took my sweet time taking a long shower. I really am a stupid girl.
I run down the spiral staircases,taking two at a time until the smell of pancakes and fresh bread coming out of the dining room hits my nostrils.
Saying that I'm not hungry would be a big lie , my stomach is grumbling.I can hear the sound of cutlery coming in contact with plates.It seems like they are having breakfast without me.
I take my phone out and text Matt while making my way to the dining room at a fast pace.
No need to pick me up for school. You're late and I'll be late. x
"Woah woah! Watch out Rea!" I put my phone back into my pocket while avoiding bumping into Sarah who's holding a tray of orange juice.
"I'm sorry.Kinda in a rush." I smile at her in a silly way and take one of the glasses that is filled with juice.
I finish it in several gulps.
"Grandma! Why didn't you wake me up?" I kiss her on the cheek and give her a side hug while she kisses me back.
"I thought that you want to spend some time with your precious boyfriend?" My grandma raises her eyebrows, enlarging her eyes.
I almost spill the food I'm chewing when I hear what she says.
A wave of heat creeps my my cheek and I am blushing. I hope I am not as red as a tomato. Damn, my body chooses the worst time to betray me.
"What on Moon are you talking about? He's like a brother to me. Bye! As fun as this conversation goes for you , I've got to leave." I wave and plaster an awkward smile on my face.
Looking around in the garage, my eyes landed on my black helmet and motorcycle which I use time after time when I'm in the need for speed.
I got the motorcycle last year after my sudden obsession with motorcycles and leather jacket. What makes it has a sentimental value attached to it is I worked really hard for it.
After getting paid for working as an editor for some runways magazine , I finally bought my baby.
I put my helmet on .I secure the strap and tighten it a little bit since it is quite loose.
