Sasha's P.O.V.

My alarm goes off and i mentally slap myself for cutting it back on. What day is it? Oh yea, Monday. The day the Spirits allowed us to begin our week. I get out of my bed and over to my Phone to cut off the alarm. I notice that Star texted me. I smile to myself remembering Saturday.

Hey sleepy head want to meet up before school?

Yea but i gotta drop off bro at daycare.

That's ok i'll meet you at the schools gate?

Okay in about how long

20 minutes?

Okay

I look at myself in the mirror and sigh. I don't even feel like going to school today, but then again Star is going to be there so it can't be so bad. I wake up Kenny to get him into some play clothes after i put some bread in the toaster. I put on black high-waitsted pants with a white paris shirt and black sunglasses. I pulled some black platform boots from the back of my closet and placed them by the front door. I gave Kenny his toast with some peanut butter and i pulled out another $20 from the daycare drawer. I noticed it was filled so i assumed dad came home last night.

I drop off Kenny at daycare and proceed walking to School. I rub my hands on my jeans noticing they're getting sweaty with anticipation to see Star. I wonder if she's this nervous to see me? I doubt it, she's stunning. I keep walking and her figure starts to become less blurry until I'm standing right in front of her. She's wearing denim jeans with a beige sweater with a cheetah on it. She has a polka dot bow in her hair and tan platform ankle boots on. She's holding her phone in her hand and i see that she was about to text me. She grabs my hand and walks into the building. Her hand is soft and fits perfectly in mine. I notice she walks the same pace i do.

"Do you wanna go to breakfast?" She asks me after we go to both of our lockers.

"We can go to breakfast if you want." I shrug watching her add mascara to her already long lashes. She pecks me on my cheek.

"Great. I'm starving. My dad dropped me off in a hurry so he could get to his meeting on time." She said following me to the cafeteria.

"Well I wouldn't want my star shining on an empty stomach now would I?" I pecked her lips.

She smiled as she picked up two yogurt parfaits. She paid and we went to go sit down. She handed me one as we sat down. I thanked her and we ate in a comforting silence while occasionally stealing glances. She almost dropped her spoon when Mattie walked by.

"I knew she was cute but I didn't know she was that cute." I teased.

"No I hate that bitch." She said going back to eating her parfait.

I looked back and forth between them. Mattie seemed to be avoiding Star.

"So you know Mattie?" She nodded and took a sip of her apple juice. "How?"

She sighed and looked up at me. "We used to go to the same school Wing Point, and at Wing Point they had a track team that we were both on and we were really competitive. We kept at it until it got so bad i would run twice a day pushing my body past the limit and I passed out at a district meet. My dad got tired of me complaining I wasn't fast enough and made me transfer schools. Then I get here find a cute ass girlfriend and this bitch shows up ruining my life even more."

Did she just say I was her girlfriend? Wait I'm getting off track. "How is she ruining your life?"

"She's perfect and I'm just barely on the edge of perfection and I swear to the almighty heavens if someone else says no one's perfect I'm cutting their tongue out."

I squeeze her hand and we get up to leave the cafeteria to go to first period. I'm done snooping, for now.

(~_~_+_~_~)

The bell rings and it's time for Chorus. The last period of the day. The period I have to focus on my girlfriend and not Mattie. Not the girl who's on track. Not the girl who created sparks when she brushed her fingers on my hand to get the paper. But she's not Star. I shake the thought out of my head and sit down in our assigned chairs. Star gets assigned to sit besides me and I'm immediately the uncomfortable one. I like Star not Mattie. Wait Mattie's going out with the Tramp. Yea I definitely like Star.
