Pieces

Chapter 2: Bus Ride

*Beep Beep Beep*

I jumped frightened to the sound of my alarm. I rolled to my side and saw the time, 6:30.

Well really in order for me to be late I have to wake up at 6:40 so I'll just wake up then. I told myself than rolled onto my stomach. I opened my legs then rested my hands underneath my head for support. I closed my eyes to a light slumber.

"Katy get up!" my mother yelled at me. I jumped and quickly opened my eyes. Shit. I forgot she gets up 15 minutes before I do.

I rolled over expecting there to be more bed for me but of course that wasn't the case, Plop. I landed directly on my back to the floor. Owwww!

I picked myself up and attempted to brush my thick, long hair. "Let go. Come on brush just tear through the hair!" I shrieked at my hair and brush. Finally, after about 15 minutes, I got my hair brushed,

I glanced over at the clock and saw it was almost 7:10. Crap! I'm going to be late. I rushed out the door, hopping out the door with an apple in my mouth, and attempting to put on my left shoe.

"Bye Mom!" I hollered.

Rushing to my bus stop I realized the bus wasn't even there yet. I sat on the cold pavement. The ground my be cold but the air was about 75 degrees. It was very nice outside. I saw my bus pull up to my stop and I stood up to step onto it.

When I looked into the bus, I found the most handsome/attractive man alive. Alex. He wasn't the jock or anything just the most amazing, handsome, smart, sweet, and confident guy ever. At least in my head he is. I've never actually talked to him before... maybe in the 6th grade like a few times but that was about it. We grew apart from then and we were freshman now. I didn't have a crush on him in 6th grade. Deep down I did. I didn't allow myself to have a crush on him because he was a friend and I never wanted to make the friendship break. I'm not sure if he is still a nice person today but he may have changed. We grew apart because my ex-best friend told him that I had the biggest crush on him in the world and that I stalked him. It was all just a stupid rumor. However he believed it all.

I found a seat and sat down. I was the type of girl nobody bothered with. I wasn't the weird girl, nor was I the popular girl. Just the girl nobody noticed. I was pretty popular in middle school but that faded away when I left for a different high school.

I stared at Alex. He had perfect black-brown hair that fell perfectly not covering his eyes but not standing up on top of his head. He had these gorgeous mint green eyes. Also, let's not forget about his style. He wore tan pants and a plaid shirt. Plus, the brown leather jacket to top it all off. It was now when I noticed how close I was sitting next to him. I stared to try to look for his shape. I couldn't get a good look. I hope it matches with mine. I grabbed my shape a stroked it softly. I turned to look over and then his friend Jake caught me staring at him. Crap! Look away! Look away! I turned my head quickly looking at the window. I felt him looking at me. Then felt someone sit next to me.

"What's up?" he asked me. Don't be nervous Katy. Talk to him like you used to.

I turned my head to look at him, in his minty green eyes, his beautiful bone structure. I bit my lip then saw a brown eyed face. It was Jake. I guess he thought I was looking at him.

"Pardon?" I asked him taking out my head phones so I could hear him better.

"What's your name?" he asked me.

I glanced over at Alex accidentally. Maybe thinking he would answer all his questions for me. That didn't happen. I looked back over to Jake. "Katy." I answered.

He wrapped his arm around me. He was good looking but nothing like Alex. Jake was weird and I wasn't attracted to him at all. He grabbed my leg and crawled his hand up my hairless leg and around my short. I grabbed his hand.
