My First and Last Love

Chapter 6

While lying down in my bed I stare blankly at the naked walls of my bedroom. Once I turned thirteen I had removed everything from my walls because I thought I was 'grown up'. I think about something to make me sleepy when my phone buzzes. I grab it from my bedside table and see that it's from Lucas. He's still awake at 10:00 PM at night? Wow he's a bad boy.
Lucas: hey sunshine you awake?
Me: yeah I don't know why when it's so late
Lucas: wow okay I'll let you sleep I'll see you at school tomorrow
Me: okay byee
I shut my phone off and sigh. Maybe I'll have better luck tomorrow at school.

I wake up at 6:00 in the morning and make myself some breakfast. I grab the Coco Puffs and pour them into a small blue bowl with some milk. I make myself some coffee and sit down at the counter. Maybe on the subway I'll see Lucas. Hopefully no one else is there if I do see him. I quickly down my hot coffee and toss the bowl in the dishwasher. I put lots of sugar on my burnt tongue to heal it and go back to my room. I change into a dark green denim jacket and a floral print dress. I add some brown leather boots to the outfit and a few bangle bracelets. I decide to straighten my hair and put some makeup on in case Lucas talks to me today. I put on some blush to give my cheeks a rosy look and some mascara. I lastly give my lips a pinkish color and grab my bag for school. I climb out of my window and rush to the subway. Oh great, I was in such a rush that I didn't take a shower. What on earth is wrong with me? Now I'll smell like bunny poop and everyone will hate me. I search through my bag for something to mask my bunny poop scent and find a Paris Amour perfume bottle in a pocket. Yes! I spray it all over me and enter the subway. Wow, today the subway is moving really fast. I tightly clench the pole and suddenly I feel myself flying through the air. "Woahh!" I fall into Lucas's lap. Holy crabapple. Today is hair is spiked up and his earrings are black studs. He's sporting a black old leather jacket and some ripped jeans. He bites his lips and smiles at me. "Wow, you're pretty today. You also smell good." I smile a weird awkward one and he laughs. "Riley, what if you told everyone about us? What if I took you out to dinner tonight and you didn't need to hide your face?" My smile turns into a frown and he sadly looks at me. "Why? You're embarrassed of me?" I shake my head and say "Okay I'll do it." I say. I take a shaky breath and get off his lap. We both step off the subway and he smiles at me. "I give him a tight smile that makes me look more constipated than happy. Oh crabapples, I think as I walk into my school.
