ROSEMARY'S POV
I have been going to Alferdoming High for about a month now. It's pretty cool I guess. School is school... I made some new friends and I love them. They are so funny and nice and we all stand up for each other.
I work at the Target down the street from my house. I hang up the clothes and fold the pants and put them on the shelves. I get paid about $10 per hour. I work 4 hours during the week after school, and 6 hours on Saturday. I'm lucky to have that schedule.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"TIME FOR SCHOOL!" Ash banged on my door. "GET UP LAZY BUTT," the banging continued.
"OKAY, BE QUIET!" The banging stopped.
I have my own alarm clock, but Ash bangs on my door every morning about 2 minutes before the alarm goes off. He does just to piss me off. I got up anyways and turned off the alarm and then went to the bathroom to get in the shower.
I pulled off my pajamas and got in. About 10 minutes later, I got out, brushed my brunette hair, and put it in a messy bun.
I put on some blue jeans, a white undershirt, a warm grey long sleeved shirt, and some Ugg boots.
I put on some make up like eye shadow, blush, eyeliner, foundation, etc...
I put on a cute wristwatch, got my purse and backpack from my room and then headed downstairs. I fed Max, my dog, and petted him for a bit. Ash was downstairs on his phone waiting for me. We made a deal that he drove us to school one week, and I drive us to school the next week because our family only had two cars. My parents needed the other while we were at school. Ash was trying to save up for his own car so he wouldn't have to drive me anymore, and the same for me.
We headed out the door to Jack's car and got in. Ash told me to put on some music and so I put on the first song that was on the radio, Pompeii by Bastille.
We sang to the whole song and as soon as it was over, he picked a song I didn't know and he started singing to it.
Since I didn't know it, I took out my phone from my purse and texted my best friend, Shelby.
'Do u wanna meet me by the cafeteria?'
-Rosemary'Sure!'
-Shelby'Ok! See u in a few.'
-RosemaryWe got to the school and said bye to each other as we got out of the car. I walked to the cafeteria where I could see Shelby standing by the vending machines.
When I got a little closer to her, I said, "Hey!"
She me gave a hug and she said, "Hi! I have something for you."
She stepped away and held out an envelope. I took it and opened it. Inside was an invitation to her 17th birthday party on Saturday.
"I hope you can come," she said. "My parents are only letting me have 4 friends over because my older sister had a huge party at their house and her boyfriend's friends broke some expensive things."
"That sucks! Well I promise that I won't break anything." I laughed as I put the invite into my backpack.
"You better not!"
