"Lena, time for school!" Yelled her mom up the stairs.
"Coming!" Replied Lena.
Lena came down the stairs wearing a pink ruffle top, a pair of skinny jeans, black and white tennis shoes, hair in a ponytail, and her backpack on her shoulders.
"I don't remember that outfit, where did you get it?" Asked her mom gathering her purse and taking out her keys.
"I was digging through my dresser and I found this at the bottom, who knew it would be so cute." Said Lena grabbing an apple and heading out the door.
In the car...
"So, I was thinking about getting an office job, which means I can't drive you around, so you'll have to get a drivers license." Said her mom slowly.
"Yay, good for you, I'll just ask Atlas to drive me." Said Lena calmly and excitedly.
"But what if he can't sometimes?" Asked her mom literally urging her to get a license.
"I suppose your right, should I sign up for the early morning or late afternoon?" Asked Lena as they arrived at the carpool lane.
"Early morning so I can drop you off cause I might work late." Said her mom.
"Ok bye." Said Lena walking into the school.
At lunch...
"Hey Atlas, do you know where Allie is?" Asked Lena picking at her pineapple.
"I was telepathying her last class, cause I was bored, and she said that she had to stay in England for another week cause her moms, friends, grandfather died, I think." Said Atlas also picking at Lenas pineapple peices.
"Ok." Said Lena. A few moments past and, "Wanna go out again?"
Atlas was shocked at this random statement.
"Well?" Asked Lena again.
Atlas finished chewing. "Sure, but your planning it this time."
Lena chuckled as they both finished their lunches.
A few class later it was time for fashion club...
Right about now everyone has turned in their assignments and also got a grade in the past three weeks.
But now they get to show off those outfits on the runway.
"This week is fashion week, Everyday we will have two or three people show off their outfits. Now you can either make a new outfit or you can use the ones from three weeks ago, your choice, have fun!" Said the teacher.
Lena was so excited to create a new design, and she got started right away.
After club...
"Random question but how long ago was it when I heard about the watchover, I can't remember." Said Allie over the phone.
"I think maybe 4 or 5 months ago, why?" Said Lena planning out her date for tomorrow.
"I don't know, it just occurred to me." Replied Allie.
They talked for a while until it was time for dinner.
"Toby, lets talk about you for a moment, we always talk about Lena, but tonight is your night." Said their mom.
"Ok, um, well, oh, nope, I got nothin." Said Toby shrugging his shoulders.
"Come on, what did you learn in school?" Asked Lena nudging Toby.
"I don't know, math stuff." Said Toby looking down.
"I had the same teacher as you when I was your age, she was so much fun, what fun did she plan for you guys today?" Asked Lena looking him in the eyes.
"I wasn't really paying attention." Said Toby.
"That doesn't sound like you, what's going on?" Asked their mom concerned.
"Nothing." Said Toby angrily.
Lena gasped. "I know what's going on, you have a crush on someone!"
"No I don't." Said Toby turning red.
"Yes you do and you want to know how I know, because you are blushing!" Said Lena jumping out of her chair.
"I'm not blushing, I'm just mad." Said Toby trying not to show any emotion.
"Oh ok, well I am going to go upstairs and work on my outfit, oh, and tell your girlfriend I said hi." Lena said running up the stairs laughing.
"She is NOT my girlfriend!" Screamed Toby standing up.
Their mom just sat their laughing quietly to herself.
Upstairs...
Lena was working hard on her outfit when she heard the voice she hadn't heard in 4 months.
"Hi my baby girl, having fun?" Asked a deep voice that could only be her father.
