"Get up, get up, get up, get up" I repeatedly heard in my dream. "E-..ll-..ah"

"F*ck off, Jake" I rolled over on my side; facing away from my brother.

"But we have to leave in like.." there's a 2 second long pause. "Twenty minutes" he finishes.

My eyes slowly widen as I glance over at my mint colored alarm clock and seeing that it's 6:39, and we have to be at the school by 7. "What the hell! Why didn't you wake me up earlier!" I screech at him with my infamous high-pitched voice. I had gotten made fun of in grade school, but ever since Ariana Grandé became famous no one really cared anymore.

I sat straight up in my (also mint colored) bed and quickly pushed back the duvet. Jake stood up with a smirk plastered on his tanned face; me being the pale, porcelain skinned one of the family, it almost looked like my parents and him had gone out for a spa day without me and gotten spray-tans that stained their skin.

Jake sauntered out of my room and I rushed out of my bed and dig through my dresser trying to find 'okay-ish' clothes. I decided on just having a white color scheme for the day, and me being me, adding a touch of color with my pastel lipstick and gages (along with my other assortments of makeup). I then pulled my dyed gray hair into space-buns and rushed out of my bedroom.

I grabbed a pre-made bagel off of the counter as I sprinted through, then grabbing my combat boots by the door and running out to Jakes truck in my socks.

"Hurry up" he yelled out to me and I hopped into the passenger seat as he opened the car door. I closed the door and Jake started up the vehicle and drove out of the driveway as I struggled with the clasp on my pearl choker and made sure makeup wasn't smeared from my sweat.

I finished my bagel as Jake pulled into the parking-lot of our school; George Washington high school. I quickly reapplied some lipgloss to my candy colored lips and licked my teeth (and my braces obviously) to make sure nothing was stuck to them. I then grabbed my bag and hopped out of the truck, walking side-by-side with Jake.

And this is my typical morning.
