Present Day.

Blink. Yawn. Open eyes. Close them again. Yawn louder. Roll over. Tug on covers. Glance at alarm clock. 6:40am. Sigh and roll out of bed. Walk groggily to the bathroom. Close door, turn on water. Dim lights, too bright. Get in hot shower. Happy. Less sleepy.

I think back to my dream last night, glad to be thinking full thoughts again. I wipe the tiredness out of my eyes and sigh. Again. I really miss River, but today, I promise myself, will be a River-thought-free day. I say it in my head like a chant.

Happy, bubbly and River-free.

Happy, bubbly and River-free.

Happy, bubbly and River-free.

I wash up and shampoo my hair. Tousle me softly by Herbal essences ( This is the shampoo/conditioner/hair gel spray/ [sometimes] even mousse, that I use. Works great! ). After a while of standing and just letting the water wake me up, I get out of the shower and wrap a towel around my body. I head strait over to the mirror and brush my hair while it's still wet. I bounce over to my closet thinking only happy things and pick out some clothes.

Hm should I be punk-rocker chick today or preppy? Or maybe sophisticated? Nerdy? Grr it's always hard to choose! I think I'll go slightly sophisticated but with a bad attitude. I pull out a gorgeous yellow shirt that hangs off one shoulder. Then I search my closet until I find my absolute favorite pair of black super-skinny jeans from Garage. I go into the bathroom and inspect my hair. I flip it over and spray some curling gel in it. Scrunching and scrunching until I'm satisfied. I flip it back over, more carefully this time though.

I run out to check the clock, and I've still got ten minutes. Run Run! Grabbing my make-up bag I look and locate my eyeliner, mascara, and lip gloss. I don't go over-board with the liner today. Remember, not too emo-chick today! After glossing my lips I dash to my room and get my bag and call to mom a good-bye. I walk out the door, but not before I grab an apple for breakfast. I jump into my gorgeous car and ride to school in style. Chenisse is waiting for me, looking relieved to see me on time.

"Hey" she says to me.

"Hi"

"Well come on, let's get to class!" She grabs my wrist and starts yanking me.

"Wait! Wait! I need to go to my locker first.." When she looks at me dumbfounded I continue. "To get my book?"

She smacks herself on the forehead like they do in those V-8 commercials. Sometimes blonds are so dense. (no offense to blonds).

I lead the way to my locker and hastily grab my books.

"Hey did you hear? New kid in class! Apparently he's really cute, but I haven't gotten to see him yet!" She squeals in an annoying tone. No wonder she wanted to get to class early!

"No, I didn't know." I reply in a monotone. Then remembering this morning's promise, I say eagerly "I can't wait to meet him though!" Chenisse seems pleased with my enthusiasm and urges me to hurry.

We take off to class, almost skipping with excitement and joy, her's more real than mine. When we get to the threshold, we stop and take in the scene before us.
