You know there's a lot that goes by the front door

Don't forget the keys under the mat

Childhood stars shine, always stay humble and kind.

Leigh awoke to her alarm playing the newest song added to her playlist. She rolled over and pressed the button to snooze the song. But, instead of falling back into her dreams, she decided to scroll through her newsfeed. Pictures of Bianca and Carson took over her newsfeed with witty lyrics to songs.

The funny thing was that songs didn't mean anything to them, not like they did to her. Leigh made a mental note to herself, that she wouldn't let yesterday upset her. Today was a new day and she wasn't going to let people push her around.

Leigh turned off her alarm once more and grabbed her portable speaker and found her way to her bathroom and ran a hot shower.

She thought about how much of a bitch Bianca was and figured that even though she isn't going to talk to anyone, that doesn't mean she didn't get to wear any of her cute clothes. The clothes that her parents had spent a lot of money on.

As she was throwing clothes on her bed, she heard a knock on her door, so she turned off her music as a cue to them to come in.

Tyler walked in with a smirk as he took her appearence in, she was in only a towel with her wet hair falling down. Leigh rolled her eyes at his testosterone.

"Don't start. I'm trying to get dressed." she sighed as she went back to her closet to find something to wear.

"You could just stay in that." Tyler replied with his smirk growing bigger.

She shook her head from in her closet, but didn't reply.

Tyler walked closer to her when she turned around. Like really close. "You know," he started, "I never got my prize from last night."

Leigh nodded, but didn't move. She was only in her towel, and felt like this was wrong. This was too intimate for her. She didn't want all this.

She shook off her nerves and placed her hand on his chest, "Later. I'm running late."

Tyler laughed before turning around and heading back out the door, "you might want to hurry if you still want any food from downstairs."

Leigh smirked at the thought of the kids fighting over the food downstairs, but shook it off and she continued to dig from her closet. She was glad that this school's dress code was so lenient so she could still wear all her clothes, since some of them tended to be revealing.

She decided on a pair of black skinny jeans, a black skinny strap tank, and black converse. Leigh made sure her parent's locket was across her neck before she applied her makeup and fixed her hair. She looked in the mirror, she looked sexy, but secret sexy.

She grabbed her phone, thin earbuds and her backpack before heading down the stairs to grab something before they had to leave.

Everyone was staring at Leigh as she walked into the room.

"You look very nice today darling." Fiona pointed out.

Leigh smiled her thanks before grabbing apple and a bottle of water. Everyone else was already ready, so she wanted to grab something that she could eat on the go. The kids fought over who was sitting where, but Carson made sure to grab the back corner seat, so he didn't have to talk to anyone.
