Fractured Fundamentals

the first of many days

i woke up to the sound of my alarm going off. a lot of people put songs as their alarm but mines is the original buzzing sound from the movies. i decided to put on something more feminine to try and impress my hot new neighbor *clears throat* uh i mean look presentable for Collin. it was 7:00 on the dot when i finished getting ready. i was dressed in a maroon long sleeve shirt that stopped below my navel, my high waisted jeans with the tears in them, and my maroon converse. i finished my look with my maroon MK tote bag. if you ask me, i think i looked pretty hot. When i checked my phone i noticed i had a good 10 minutes to eat breakfast. not too long after i put my chocolate chip waffles in the toaster oven, i heard a knock on the door. i already knew who it was so i told him to come in. "uh it's me, Collin!" he yelled out into the house. "hey, would you like a waffle before we head out?" i asked him hoping he would say yes. "chocolate chips?" he asked. "you know it!" i replied slightly giggling. "yes please, chocolate chip waffles are my favorite." that perfect angel sent from heaven said. i cant believe how much of the total package he is nice, sweet, hot, cute, shy, and we share a passion for waffles! could this day get any better? "here take this." i said giving him his waffle on a paper plate. "thanks riv" he said giving me the cutest nickname ever. "lets get this show on the road" i said mentally face palming myself for being so corny. he simply smirked and followed me out the door. when we got to my 2015 baby blue Volkswagen convertible i unlocked the door and slid in with Collin hopping in the front seat like a little kid. "nice car for a nice girl" he said making me blush. it was pretty hot out so i decided to let the top down. i didn't curl my hair so maybe the wind will take it's course. "so how far is the school from here?" Collin asked me looking pretty nervous. "like 10 minutes. we have to be at school by 7:45 or we're late. later on in the semester i might be leaving early, the school library opens at 7:15 and i use that time to hit the books before class." i informed him. "do you think you can text me when you'll be leaving so i can hitch a ride?" he said almost wishing he didn't. "hecky yes! my number is 541-0199" i said overly excited. He called it and heard the car saying 'incoming call, incoming call' and i clicked the end call button. when we arrived at school i got out with Collin following in pursuit. people waved and said their 'hello's, we missed you's, and whatnot. Collin just took off his leather jacket and left it in my car, which i thought was soooo attractive. i don't know why don't ask me. as i looked at my phone the time was 7:30. hm we made good time, i thought. when i got in the school i remembered Casey and terrise would be on the school patio waiting for me. when i saw terrise and Casey they both acted as if they were looking through me with their jaws dropped in amazement. i turned to see Collin fixing his hair while walking behind me. i instantly knew what their unusual behavior meant. "hey..guys" i said awkwardly. "girl who is that following you around like a lost puppy?" terrise asked. "be nice" i whispered to her before Collin caught up with me. "Hi, i'm Collin, new friend of rivers." he introduced himself to them. "oh, well i'm Casey and i love all the colors in the rainbow." Casey said eyeing Collin up and down like he was a chocolate chip waffle. "and i'm terrise, i'm one of the straight ones" she said pointing between the three of us indicating that Casey was gay. "nice to meet you guys." he replied sweetly. just as i was turning to walk to throw my trash away in the corner of my eye i seen the biggest bitch walking down the hall with her super short skirt and her slutty shirt that didn't really cover much of her 'personalities'. when her eyes landed on Collin, i knew this was gonna be one hell of a year...literally. as i made my way back over to my friends, i noticed the looks on their faces as they watched the perfect, little Miss Lucy. Lucy Timberland, the Queen of bitches! "hey Lake how are you? i missed you over the summer." the bitch said purposely saying my name wrong. "oh it was just perfect since i didn't have to see your natural resting bitch face for 4 months straight." i shot back receiving laughs from people in the hall. "and my name isn't Lake, its River but i guess i would expect that from someone that can't get her GPA over 1.5." i said shrugging my shoulders walking away with my friends following closely behind and Collin by my side with a amusing smile. everyone looked up to me at times when i was the only one to stand up to Lucy from 10th to now 12th. "whatever ocean, i'm still hotter than you by MC rectangle!" her dumbass shot a blank at me trying to sound smart from a mile away. whatever guy thinks air head bimbos are hot, they are probably brain dead themselves. i can't let her get to me anyway.
