A Day in My Life

Picnic

It was almost winter break and I was really excited! Unfortunately, my uncle would be out of town over the break, but Blake had offered Emma and Eric a place to stay at our house! And I wasn't the only one excited, everyone in the school was buzzing about their plans for the break, where we would get a few weeks off! 

Finally, it was the Friday before break. I danced in the morning as I got ready and put on my clothes. I threw on a loose white shirt with tight maroon jeans and black high top converse. I grabbed my green army jacket, backpack, and had breakfast. After we ate we hopped into the car and drove to school, while I bounced in my seat. Before we got there, Blake said "Hey, reminder that tonight we're gonna be taking Emma and Eric home with us for the week." I squealed in excitement and he chuckled. "Glad someones excited." he said, as he pulled up to school. 

We all left the car and I saw Luke as I walked in. We grabbed hands and walked into school together. I loved having him as a boyfriend. We walked down the halls together and girls looked at him jealously. I just smiled and pulled him closer. Reilly walked up to me then and pulled me away from him for a second. We talked about winter break plans and hanging out together until the bell rang. Then, I walked to english with Luke. In english, the teacher tried to hold our attention but all of us were just waiting to leave. In math, we had a test, but I rushed through it completely. It didn't help that Dylan kept kicking the back of my chair. In science my teacher basically just let us mess around because she accepted that nobody was paying attention. 

Finally the bell rang for lunch and I went to meet Luke at the lockers, after I got a text from him. I went over to this closed off abandoned hallway of lockers and saw Luke sitting, with a small blanket spread out like for a picnic. He called me over and I walked over surprised as he pulled out different foods from his backpack and lay them out. He even had a mini candle sitting in the center that he lit with a match so it glowed. 

I sat on his makeshift seat and smiled at him. "What is this?" I said, elated. 

"Decided we could stay in today and maybe have a mini picnic?" he said, gesturing to the stuff around him. 

"I would love to!" I said, looking at the foods ranging from a saltine pack to some gorgeous cupcakes he must have bought just for this. 

As we ate lunch, we planned for winter break and what we would do together. When there were only a few minutes until the bell rang, I leaned closer to him and said "Thank you for all this. Nobody has ever done anything this special for me." He leaned closer until there was only an inch of space between us. 

"You deserve it. And you're a gorgeous, amazing girlfriend." he said, whispering as he leaned closer. We paused and he touched my cheek, lighting a blush underneath his hand. Then he leaned closer and we touched forehead to forehead. My eyes widened and Luke leaned in, kissing me. I couldn't contain a smile at the beautiful feeling of hot fire shooting into me, and rushing through all my veins. He smiled too and we separated for a second, until he couldn't last any longer and he pressed back against me. I ran my fingers through his blonde hair and he wrapped his arms around my waist. I kissed him again, more passionately this time and he did too, until we were pressed tightly to each other. Then, a bell rang and we ripped apart frightened. When we realized it was only the bell to get back to class,  we laughed and he pulled me to my feet. He cleared all the stuff we didn't use into his backpack and we walked to class, slightly breathless. I sat through Art and PE, doing the bare minimum, just remembering that at the end of the day I would get to leave school for weeks! 

Finally, the bell rang and everyone cheered, just like in High School Musical. I ran to the front of the school and hugged my friends to say goodbye for a while. Then I went to my brother's and we hopped into the car as soon as we saw Blake. He reminded us that we had to pick up Emma and Eric too. We drove to their house which was about an hour away, and I just sat dreamily, thinking of my private make out session with Luke. He was like a fairytale prince, and that kiss was a dream come true. 

I felt a punch on my arm. "Ow!" I said, turning to Dylan and rubbing it. "What was that for?" 

He said "Sorry, just bringing you back to reality." with a smirk.

I rolled my eyes and turned away. Finally we reached their house and saw Eric and Emma standing in front of their house.  

They walked up to the car and said Hi as the door opened. 

We smiled back and then Blake reminded us about how we only had 5 seats, and 7 of us. "Two littlest go on a lap." Blake said. 

"What?!" Talen and I said simultaneously. Blake grinned and shrugged his shoulders. 

Dylan sat in the back left, Emma center, and Eric right, as Nick was in shotgun.

"Dibs on Emma!" Talen said immediately. Everyone liked her. She smiled and opened her arms as he squeezed over and onto her. I looked at my options. 

There was Nick, who was reading something and glared at me evilly.  

There was Dylan, who would tease me mercilessly.

And then Eric, who was grinning at me with open arms, who would probably kill me literally. 

Blake said "Come on. Choose now or I'll choose for you." I looked at all of them and then groaned.  I went to sit with Dylan. He smirked and stuck his tongue out at Eric. "She likes me best." he teased jokingly. Eric grumbled angrily. We then started to drive home and it began to rain. I sat on Dylan stiffly and looked at the window. 

He sat for a while on his phone but after about 40 minutes he put it down. Then he got bored with me doing nothing. He began to pressure point me in certain places so I squealed. He did my arm, back, neck, and shoulder and I suddenly backhanded him in the face.  The whole car turned when they heard the hit, I accidentally might've made it really painful. And very loud.  He looked at me, shocked.

Then the whole car laughed besides Blake, who craned his head to see what happened in the rear view mirror. Eric said "Wow, your little sister beat you up." as Dylan rubbed his cheek. 

Dylan glared at me. Then he reached into his backpack and pulled out his water bottle from earlier.  He then twisted the cap off, smiled at me, and poured it straight onto my lap.  I gasped in outrage. The water was freezing cold and completely covered the lower half of my shirt and my jeans. Some even dripped onto him. I glared at him and tried to towel it off with his jacket. Talen, Nick, and Eric were in tears laughing and Emma tried to not but was holding in a laugh herself.  I pouted and crossed my arms all the way home, while everyone kept looking at me and laughing. Finally it was time to get out and I hopped out immediately and ran inside to change, running from the joking behind me.
