Finally, my senior year of high school. I find myself constantly reminding myself that it's ok and that it's my last year but it doesn't make it any better. We started school in August and now its October. May is so far away ugh. I rolled out of my bed and went to take a shower. I did the rest of my hygienes before getting dressed.

I jogged to the kitchen and grabbed a half full notebook and whatever pen I found first. I took a lot of snacks but I also took an orange from my fruit bowl then went to the living room to get my keys off the coffee table. I pulled up at school around fifteen minutes later. I drove around the parking lot a few times just to stall and as soon as I did pull into my parking spot I immediately put my car in reverse.
"Nicki!" I heard one of my best friends, Kehlani yell. I rolled my eyes and slowly pulled back in. I put on my book sack and got out of the car.
"You know one day I'm going to keep backing out" I told her. We walked past a group of girls and they all smiled and waved. We did the same thing back. Except there was this one girl who stared me down like I stole her man, which I might have but in my defense I was just messing with him and I'm not sure which one was her's. Kehlani caught her stare she frowned.
"Problem?" Lani asked. The girl shook her head and laughed going back to doing whatever on her phone.
"It's too early in the fucking morning for this bullshit man" I rolled my eyes going to my locker. Lani stood beside me opening hers. Our lockers were always together, that's probably why we're friends now. I had no choice but to see her everyday. I looked over confused. I couldn't find my other best friend.
"Where's Ciara?"
"Football players"
I just nodded my head, enough was said. I had just started to switch out different text books from my locker when the first bell rung. I saw freshmen running to their classes and I shook my head. Was I like this as a freshman?
"No we weren't" Kehlani answered. Damn this bitch must be physic reading my mind and answering my questions and shit. I once again just nodded and slowly walked to class. There was no need to hurry I still had around seven minutes to get to class. When I made it to home room I noticed that Ciara was here already just on her phone, texting. We took out normal spots in the back and waited for the second bell to ring.
"Why are you smiling so hard Ciara? You have his number?" Our teacher asked.
My homeroom teacher, Mrs. Williams, was by far my favorite teacher. I'm so happy that I have her for English too. After Mrs. Williams took roll, I saw this girl come in to talk to Mrs. Williams. I eyed her features tilting my head a little. She looked pretty tall, well at least taller than me, she was light skinned and had honey blonde hair.
