I awoke by my phone going off to the sounds of buzzards. I chose that ringtone specifically to wake me up. I knew I'd freak out.

"Morning beautiful." -Jake

"High school!"- Suzy

My mom came in with a camera and I hid immediately. I didn't want pictures. Who was I lady Gaga? No flash photography please. And I yelled exactly that out from under my pillows.

"One photo?"

"No."

"Oh alright."

**FLASH**

"Mom!"

"What?" She says as she leaves the room snickering.

I took a shower the night before so my hair was dry. I curled the ends of my hair from the ears down. It looked wavy. Cute. My outfit was simple. It consisted of cute destroyed denim jean shorts from Hollister, a flowy neon pink tank top to show off my simply golden tan, and white high tops. It was elegantly simple. I had slightly smoky eyeshadow on and perfectly peachy cheeks. With a plump neutral lip. One long necklace with a dream catcher on it. My ears were pierced twice with a stud and a diamond. I felt beautiful.

"Nicole, you ready.? ?" My brother Jorge yelled.

Jorge was a cute kid. Not in a creepy way but in a sisterly way.

"Ya."

The ragged old school filled with psychos and pot heads. I wasn't really excited until -

"NICOLE. LOOK OUTSIDE. WHAT'S GOING ON.? ? .! !"
