- Beep Beep Beep Beep-
There goes my alarm, waking me up from my endless love affair with my bed. I blink a few times, trying to get my eyes adjusted to the bright sun rays coming from the binds in my bedroom.

I groan and sit up in my bed,my mind and body still tired.

"Alex! Baby, we're leaving." My mom called out from downstairs.

"Bye Mom,Bye Dad take care." I shouted back.

"Have a nice day baby girl." Dad said. I heard the door shut, so I guessed they left. My life is so weird, like even though I have been changing countries almost every 2-3 years, My parents never seem to be at home. Its like, they are always flying from place to place. When they are not flying around, they come home late. And,  I never like literally never see them. I wonder what work they do that keeps them so out of touch.
I sigh and get out of bed. I take a look at myself in the mirror infront of me. my hair a huge mess.
"I look like a freaking Zombie." I speak to myself. Note to myself: Sleep with hair tied.
I walk over to my closet and pick out an animal print sweater and leggings. I walk into the bathroom and hop into the shower. I sang the most randomest songs and God, if anyone heard me they'd run miles away, kidding, I'm not that bad of a singer.

After a shower of about fifteen minutes I got out. I quickly dried myself, not wanting to feel the cold breeze on my skin. I quickly slipped on my clothes and walked over to my mirror. I applied a little mascara, some gloss and then wore my boots.
I glanced at my watch, I had 5 minutes until Niall picked me up. He lived like a few blocks away, and nothing is better than walking to school with your bestfriend.

I ran downstairs,grabbing my bag. I went into the kitchen and grabbed an apple.I'm like a health freak every morning,I took a bite out of it and then.

-knock knock-

"Coming!" I said, taking one more bite of the apple.

"Hey," There stood my bestfriend, Niall.

"Hey, like always on time." I said.

"Always, you ready?" He asked.

"Yep," I said popping the 'p'.

I grabbed my bag and walked out behind Niall. I locked the door and then we headed to school.

"So...?" I said trying to start a conversation.

"You and your apple every morning?" He asked.

"Yes, healthier option. Helps me stay fit" I said.

"I don't think its working.." he said laughing.

"Shut up Horan!" I said and punched his arm.

"Ouch..Alright, Alright I was kidding." He said still laughing, while he rubbed his arm.

"Better be." I said, now smiling.

"Anyway,Are you coming to France by the way?" He asked.

"Not really, I basically never see mom and dad, so I haven't really gotten a chance to ask really." I said.
