Letters to Angels

asdad

I arrive at school a few minutes late. Shit. Groups of friends were still outside the building, losers probably didn't even hear the bell from how loud they were talking. I put my skateboard into my backpack and speed-walked down the halls, not even caring if a teacher saw me or not. I walk into Ms. Tate's room as quietly as I could, drawing only a few peoples attention, until my dumbass friends made  it seem like they thought I had vanished off the ace of the earth and thought I'd never come back.

"Kourtney! Kourtney! Girl you didn't text me at all this weekend! Did you go under a coma?" Jaki yells from all the way across the room.

"Did you get your phone tooken away again?! Kourtney, you got to stop-" Ms. Tate interruped Sam before he could finish his thought.

"Late again, Ms. David?" Ms. Tates speaks sternly, crossing her arms. Geez, what was her problem today?

I wanted to reply with a sarcastic remark, but bit my tounge. I didn't want to get in anymore trouble.

"Yes" I reply, my head hung down.

"Consider this your first and final warning, next is detention" Ms. Tate warned and returned to her desk. 

I chose a seat right next to the 2 idiots that got me busted and got out my notebook.

"Sorry about that, Lamb" whispers Sam right behind me. I sigh.

"So we still heading to the skate park, right?" asks Jaki as we are waiting outside the front door, awaiting for the boy's PE class to be over.

"Where else we going skating at? The circus?" I reply, Jaki just rolls her eyes.

"Sorry I was late girls, Coach Stern would NOT stop talking about his newborn Yorkies!" Sam says to us, walking out of the building with sweat glistening from his hair.

"Well that's Coach Stern for ya" Jaki responds. Coach Stern may act like the toughest guy at school and may look like a heavyweigt boxing champ, but as the mind and heart of a young little girl. Especially about Yorkies.

My friends and I make our way to tha park, telling stories about how our day went, the girl that got her wig flung off in a fight, stuff like that. We stopped at the corner of Maple St. and Cove Dr. when we saw this giant advertisement on the side of a transverse bus. 5 of the most handsome men I had ever seen were on it, along with the words "One Direction" written in black.

"One Direction? Isn't that that band with those 5 gay boys?" Jaki laughs, pointing at the bus.

"One Direction? Which way, to hell?" jokes Sam. Jaki and Sam were rolling at these comments and noticed me not showing any emotion.

"Kourt?" Jaki asks, shaking her hand in front of me.

"W-what? Oh yeah, to hell haha" I let out a small laugh. I noticed jaki and Sam staring at me with a confused expression.

"Wait, do you actually LIKE One Direction?!" laughs Sam. Jaki's eyes widen.

"Me?! Ha what are you talking about? Some dumbass Bubblegum pop band? Hell no!" I say taken back. Their expressions change back to normal.

"Thank god, you had us worried there for a second Kourt" Jaki lets out a sigh of relief. "Kourtney liking 1D, what are we high on?" laughs Jaki. I let out a small laugh. Truth is, I actually do like One Direction, a lot. Their music isn't like most artist where they talk about sex or drinking or drugs. It actually makes girls feel beautiful and secure with themselves and lets us know that they're here for us for whatever reason. I could never let Sam or Jaki or Ben or anyone know about this, though. They all think they're just another boyband in it for the money and fame. 1D is different and they'll never understand.

"I think I've laughed way to hard for one day" Sam said panting.

"Race ya to the park then, losers!" Jaki replied, hopping on her skateboard and already on her way.

"Not fair!" I yell from behind and ride behind her, followed by Sam.

We spent the rest of the day doing simply tricks, like the 360 spin, and tried more diificult moves like the one hand handstand. I checked my phone. 6:00 and already 5 missed calls!

"Shit!" I exclaim from the bench.

"What's up? Jaki asks, removing her helmet and sitting beside me.

"I was supposed to be home an hour ago, Ben is going to kill me!" I say holding on to my phone.

"Ben's cool don't worry, he won't be too upset" she replied, putting a hand on my shoulder. It's true, Ben is calm and collective most of the time but if it's something like this, papa bear erupts from inside him.

"I got to go, text me?" I ask as I see Sam walking our way.

"Will do" Jaki says with a smile, removing her blonde curls from her face.

"Yeah" Sam replies with a shrug of his shoulders.

"See you guys later!" I speak as I ride my way home, turning around and waving to my best friends.
