Life As Melanie

Chapter 45

*alarm goes off*

Beyoncé: *sings* Heaven couldn't wait for you!

*hits snooze*

Why what I a great song choice my phone decided to make this morning!

*walks into bathroom*

OMG, all this crying has made my face look so swollen! Not to mention my ankles match my face.

*giggles a little*

Let me stop moping around & get started with my daily routine already.

*walks downstairs*

Ma: *yells* Good morning baby!

Me: Good morning Ma!

Ma: I'm in a rush! *kisses forehead* Have a good day at school, stay focused, and I love you! *runs out the door*

Me: I love you too Ma!

Well, I guess it's my turn to go too. I feel a little bit better since yesterday. I guess getting some rest did do me a little justice.

*walks out the door & gets into car*

Even though I would pay money to stay home instead of walking into Milton High I just have to make the best out of it. I'll have Naomi with me all day, so I should be fine.

*parks car & walks into school*

I need to go to my locker before I meet up with Naomi, plus I don't feel like talking to anybody at this second.

*walks to locker*

Man I never realized how many people it was at Milton high until I actually paid attention!

*feels somebody walking up behind me*

Jeremiah: Wassup

Me: *turns around* How may I help you?

Jeremiah: First you can start off by giving me your phone number.

Before this conversation goes any further let me introduce you to Jeremiah, Jeremiah White. This is one of the popular kids at our school. Every girl at Milton high has a thing for him & they don't care at the fact that he's one of the schools "players".

Me: Jeremiah you know I have a boyfriend.

Jeremiah: Is that supposed to mean something to me?

Me: You just never quit do you?

Jeremiah: Not until I get what I want & you know I always get what I want!

Me: Oh really?

Jeremiah: Better act like you know!

Me: I barely even see you. I almost forgot you even exist!

Jeremiah: FLEX! Plus, you hang with lames, so that's why.

Me: *laughs* yeah right!

Jeremiah: So wassup with me & you?

Me: Wassup with me? Well, I'm about to go to class.

Jeremiah: *laughs* That was real cute! I'll get you one day! *walks off*

Me: Well, you keep working on that!

*Naomi walks up*

Naomi: Hey boo, what was that all about?

Me: Hey girl, you know how Jeremiah is! Ready to go?

Naomi: Wait before we go, you feeling better? I was waiting on you to call me last night.

Ugh, Naomi just had to bring back the black cloud hanging over my head, but I understand that she's only concerned & being my bestfriend.

Me: Honestly, I'm not ok, but I feel a little bit better than I did yesterday.

Naomi: You know I'm always here if you need me.

Me: *smiles* I know

Naomi: Now let's go to these classes & get the life sucked out of us!

*we both laugh & walk to class*
