London p.o.v.

'Beep, beep,beep' my alarm clock went off, every time it went off the beep got slower, I reached my hand out of my covers and hit the snooze button well at least I think it was, but it turned off so I must of done something right. I pulled my covers off and put my slippers on and shuffled to my closet I picked out my plaid skirt, white blouse, and black tights. I went to my bathroom and changed, I put my hair in a high ponytail and put my headband on. I looked in the mirror and stood up straight and smiled
"London this is your year and no Body can change that" I said to myself I jumped up and down in excitement and walked out into the hallway I saw my older brother Nathan fixing his jacket
"Hello little sis" Nathan said turning on his heels towards me
"You look fancy" I pointed out
"Thanks" Nathan agreed
"Why though?" I asked
"Well little sis it's called the future and opportunities" Nathan said while putting his arm around me and moving his hand in a straight line
"Your doing a job interview aren't you?" I said
"How'd you know?" Nathan asked
"Your future and an opportunity for getting a life" I explained pushing Nathan away
"Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed and that joke is old you should try new tricks" Nathan said giving me a pat on the shoulder
"I actually woke up on the right side of the bed so ha, and I'm bringing old jokes back so double ha" I claimed and I crossed my arms, Nathan looked at me funny then walked away down stairs
"You know little sis whatever happened in the old days are now old and out of date, so stop trying to bring anything from back then back because it's not gonna work" Nathan explained I followed behind him down the stairs
"It will so work with my ideas that are from this century and are up to date" I barked, Nathan stopped and turned to look at me
"Sis just face it you are out of date and making yourself look bad when you try to bring back things...." Nathan said in a soft voice "so.... Just stop" Nathan added and turned around and walked down the rest of the stairs. I stood in silence and my eyes started to fill with tears Nathan never got this angry with me, this job interview was putting him over the edge and stressing him out.
"What do you want for breakfast?" Nathan asked after that it was silent for a while he walked to the stairs and looked at me
"Are you gonna give me an answer or what?" He asked, I looked at him I couldn't believe the way he was talking to me. I ran down and bumped his shoulder he turned slowly around and I felt he was watching me. I got out the yogurt, granola bits, and strawberries and put them in a plastic cup and ate it at the over hang on the island all while Nathan was still watching and making his breakfast at the same time. When I finished my breakfast I grabbed my glasses and wiped of the smudges I put moisturizer on my face and put my glasses on, I grabbed my grey cardigan and put it on I pushed my sleeves up to my elbows and folded the white blouse sleeve a little over the cardigan sleeve. I brushed my teeth and packed my bag to go
"Hey, sis you left your book you said you loved on the couch" Nathan yelled I walked to the living room he put his arm out and passed the book to me
"Thanks Nathan" I said and I put the book in my bag and walked out the front door, on my way to the bus stop I saw some girls from my school they were 10th graders and I was a 12th grader now, I sat down at the bus stop and waited for the school bus to come, the bus was 15 minutes late and it was a 45 minute drive to school because I didn't live in the town my school is in, I live in a really small town that nobody really cares about. I got on the bus and I got my regular spot at the back of the bus and I listened to my 90's music all the way to school.
