''Your late Miss Curse.''

''Sorry, Mr. Sams,'' I say as I give him a late pass.

As I look around the room I notice almost everyone looking at me and I can feel my face turn red. I hate being the center of attention and I always have.

''You are to each read the next four chapters of To Kill a Mocking Bird for next weeks lesson,'' Mr. Sams says as I walk to a seat in the back of the classroom.

Oh great. Now I have more homework to miss out on just because I have to go on this stupid trip for my dad's job. My dad owns this business called Birds fly. He is a wedding planner for people who want help on planning small weddings.

School went by very slowly and it seemed to last a whole entire year.

When the bell finally rung I ran outside only to see my best friend, Grace, waiting for me in her car.

"Hey melody! I heard Mr. Sam gave you more homework for the plane ride to LA."

"Don't even get me started. I still have to pack since we are leaving in two days on Friday." She owns a cute little yellow slug bug. We drove home singing along to Glee. Grace and I have been friends since preschool and both really love music.

She was there when my Mom died of breast cancer and when my dad thought the only way to grieve was drinking.

I sat in the car going through my music trying to find the perfect song. I finally found the perfect song, Loser Like me. Grace looked at me and we both started to jam out.

The next day I woke up to the smell of my dad's fresh chocolate chip muffins and some greasy bacon aroma. Ah, how I love Mark's famous breakfast.

"There's my little sunshine. Morning Melody." My dad said flipping the last greasy bacon strip.

I smile, "Save some for me." My brother, Noah, comes down the stairs with a tired face and only his boxers on. He is 21 so only five years older than me. I'm 16 years old and a junior in high school.

He is living at home until the state of arizona accepts him. He graduated high school late only because partying was more important than school. Once he started caring, he showed real intelligence.

"Looks like someone sleep on their face," I said teasingly.

"Oh shut up." Noah said angrily.

After breakfast I started to pack my cloths. Since we are driving to the airport to leave tomorrow I had the day off of school so I could pack the whole day. Trust me I need the whole day.

I first pack my shorts with my shirts. Then I grab all the things I am going to do on the airplane- kindle, coloring pages, colored pencils, etc.

I also grab the book I'm reading, Lightning Thief. It's my third time reading it , but it is a good stress reliever on the plane.

All day I stress pack, unpack, then pack again making sure I have everything. When I was done with the freak show I sat down with Noah, who watched tv ALL DAY! We watched the flash. Noah and I both are finishing season three.

After a stressful marathon of Flash, my dad got home from the wedding shop and packed all the things for the wedding, I went straight to my bedroom to go to sleep.

My room has teal walls and shelves and shelves of books. I have a little tv by my small black closet. I had a whole bunch of posters scattered around my room. My room is on the side where the sun shines in so it is always bright. Once I hit my bed I fell fast asleep. I have orange and coral polka dot sheets with two pillows and one very special stuff animal. It is my monkey I got from my parents when I was born.

I drifted of into a deep sleep....

Hey guys this is my first ever story on here so I hope you will like it. I give a lot of thought into my writing and this is going to be a love story I just had to write an intro.

I know it's short and the chapters might all be short or long idk I have school and a lot of extra activities so as long as you guys like it I'll keep on writing.

This story was inspired by the book Girl Online but it is going to be a lot more different than that book.

Like, comment (your feedback I would appreciate that), and vote for me to write more.
