         I wake up to the raspy but soothing voice of the radio announcer " Today there will most likely be scattered showers, becoming more frequent during the temperature drop we are going to have over the next week. I guess it is time to pull out the winter jackets because it's going to get very very cold."  I sit up and lean against my headboard, the metal is cold on my bare back but it feels nice. I slowly peel my fluffy dark purple blanket off then my comforter. It feels like I'm ripping the safety off. I slide myself down to the foot of my bed and crawl down off of my shiney  metallic loft bed. Re-adjusting my boxers so they are actually doing their job. I turn off my old school alarm and pick up my iPhone, I hold it in my hands for a moment greatfully thinking about how much it has helped me. I turn it on and look at my messages. The only person I want to her from texted. I grin stupidly at my phone. My best friend Eloise is amazing. I met her about 4 years ago, I just started 7th grade at a new school. I didn't know anyone there so I went through the first three weeks focusing on my school work and ignoring wannabe jocks, sluts and cliques. On the of the many lonely lunches I sat at my usual spot at the far end of the "emo" girl table I don't know why people call them emo there are kinda cool two of them have their heads partially shaved but that is the only thing different about this group of 8.  All of the tables have 12 seats so at their table there are four empty seats. I get up to get the gruel they call food and as I'm standing in line this taller girl bumps into me. She is not taller then me because.I'm like a giant noodle but she is taller than the other girls. I. Turn to apologize and I notice.she is just smiling at me. Not moving or anything. I manage to squeak out an "I'm sorry" the she thrusts her hand tword my chest, I flinch thinking she might hit me then I look up and she speaks " hi I'm Eloise carter we are best friends now."  Now I'm a bit confused but I shake her hand and introduce myself " Hello I'm. Um I'm Dan Howell." She let's go of my hand band stand next to me in line when getting food then she follows me th "my" table and sits across from me. She stars talking then dosnt stop but I don't mind because she seems carry passionate about what she is talking about. That's how I met my best friend.

  "wake your skinny ass up  and hurry up I will be there.it ten.she says I read it and imagine. That she is speaking these words.with her northern english accent. It's cute. I slide on a pair of black skinny jeans a blue and grey t-shirt and my favorite hoodie with horns on the hood. I quickly brush my hair and plug in my mini hair straightner turning the heat all the way up and waiting for it to blink green saying it is at its hottest I comb my dark brown hair put on deodorant unplug the straightner and take it with me. I rush out of the door I run outside just as Eloise pulls up. I jump in and say good morning she says the same and we start the routine she yells at traffic on our way to the high school. And I use the still burning hot hair straightner yo fix my curly fringe. We get there and the straightner. Is now cold so I wrap the cord up and put it in her glovebox. She parks I grab my bag from the backseat that I left there yesterday after school and we walk in together. After the usual festivities like dodging bullies getting my books from my locker then heading to film class, I see a confused looking kid with black hair and bright blue eyes.enter the room. I have never seen this kid before, I guess he is new. He talks with the teacher for a while then the teacher Mr.Malloy points to the empty seat next to mine. He sits we exchange hellos and introduce ourselves. He catches me staring at him, I feel my cheeks heat up with embarrassment but I don't feel to bad because this guy is so so freaking hot. "MR.Howell." I hear a burly yet familiar voice booms. I look away from Phil and see Mr.Malloy stand in the front, we look eyes he hold a cold glare. "will you please answer my question." he says I open my mouth to speak slightly choking on my words I ask him to repeat the question and after he repeats himself I open my mouth to answer then I her the new (very attractive) kid phil answer.Mr.Malloy confirms the answer thanks phil then I turn to him and whisper "thanks,I hate talking to the class." He smiles at me.
        When the bell.rings for us to go to our next class phil beats me to the Door when I get to the door he grabs my hand and leads me down a small corridor we stop he turns to me grabs my hand and wright's something with a sharpie. I look it is a phone number. As he begins to walk away he stops when his shoulder is touching mine. He opens his mouth and whispers in my ear "call me, ... soon." I feel the warmth of his breath on my ear and neck. Then I feel his warm lips touch my cheek I flinch in  surprise. He pulls away and skips off. He is so cute.


Hey tell me what you think this is just an idea and it will get better I promise.
