MacKenzie's POV
"GET UP GET UP GET UP! TIME FOR SCHOOL TIME FOR SCHOOL TIME FOR SCHOOL!!!!!!!" I hear a voice shout at me.
I groan and throw a pillow at the voice. I hear an 'oomf' and I know I hit my target.
I open my eyes and see a mock sad looking Phil staring at me.
"I'm sorry Phillip!" I smile.
"Don't all me that..." He pouts.
"What is the matter Phillip do you not like your name?" I smirk.
"DANNN!!!!" Phil whines.
"Oh Phillip don't be a tattletale!" I snicker.
I swing my legs off the bed and stride over to the kitchen filling a ceramic bowl with Fruity Pebbles and pour the milk in.
"OK Macaroon I enrolled you in this morning before you woke up therefore you will go to orientation today!" Dan smiles walking into the kitchen.
"Do I have to go?" I whimper.
"Yes....I'm sorry....you have to....Mac...If you don't go to school they'll take you away from me....and I can't have that." He says with sorrow.
I scratch my fuzzy head avoiding his eye contact. Being off the chemo has already improved my hair growth. My head feels like a tennis ball.
"I-I know....but what if they don't like me because I'm different." I say insecurely.
"We talked about this last night Macaroon, You'll be just fine." He slightly smiles.
I sigh and take a mouthful of my cereal. I wipe my mouth clean when I finish drinking the milk from my bowl, place it in the dishwasher and I go to the bathroom to change.
I come back out with my turquoise stripped sweater with a large breast pocket, my skinny jeans, brown combat boots with patterned socks.
I walk out with my shoulder-bag I'm using as a backpack at the moment.
Dan smiles, "You look great! Now lets roll!"
"WAIT!" I scream and run to my bag. I pull out my grey bandana and tie it around my head.
"OK lets go." I gulp.
Dan and Phil walk my into the building.
They talk with the lady in the main office.
She comes around the table, handing me a paper.
"OK sweetheart, this is your schedule, and if you are ever having trouble you can always talk to me or councilor M."
I nod.
"OK so this is Jake, he will direct you to your locker and first period." She points to a guy a lot taller than me.
He smiles at me. It's always pity...
Dan and Phil kiss my forehead.
"Bye Dan....goodbye Phillip." I chuckle lightly.
Phil rolls his eyes and they both walk out together.
"I gotta ask...are they together?" The lady asks' me.
I laugh, "No they are best friends though, Dan is my cousin, he is also my guardian."
"Got it!" she smiles and returns to her desk.
