I woke up to the smell of...nail polish? I sat up to see my nails freshly painted, and my mom smiling at the foot of my bed. "Ready for your first day of school!?" She asked excitedly. I nervously scooted under the covers, "I'm a..feeling sick. Maybe I should skip school today, you know to feel better." I said.
She took the covered off me, and I shivered from the cold. "Don't be silly, your just a little nervous. Everyone is on the first day of school! It's nothing to be worried about, now go take a shower and get ready. I slowly rolled off my bed and shuffled into the bathroom. After taking a quick shower, I brushed my teeth I left the bathroom to see my mom sitting on my bed.
"Oh good your done! Now come and let's pick out an outfit." She said hurrying to my closet. She opened the doors, and I was shocked to see a rainbow of colors hit me. Normally I'd just have grays and browns, now I don't see any of that! I looked at mom to see she was beaming. She got rid of all my old clothes.
"Now..." She said reaching inside the closet and ripping things off the hangers. Put these on, and we'll see how your look after." She said walking out of the room, and shutting it behind her. I dropped my towel and robe, and changed like she had said. I glared at the clothing in my hands. A bright pink tank top, white short shorts, pink heart shaped earrings, a gold locket, silver open toed stiletto heels, and a white lace jacket that was basically just a sad covering for the tank.
As much as I hated doing so, I put on the clothing and looked around for a mirror. After being unsuccessful with doing so I called my mom back inside. Eve was wrong, mom didn't know my style what so ever. After a few seconds mom burst into the room carrying a few items in her hands. She sat on the bed and did my hair while I sat on the floor grimacing when she pulled to tight.
She finished and left the room to come back in with a floor length mirror. She placed it in front of me and I gazed at my reflection. The person in the mirror was not me. She only had a vague resemblance to the one I used to know. The same eyes, which now had mascara in them, the same nose, and the same mouth that was smeared with lip gloss. My hair was now curled in long waves, with blonde at the tips.
I looked at my mom to see her almost jumping up and down. "Perfect! BRANDON GET UP HERE!!!" She yelled out the door. I heard thumping up the stair case and my brother walked in. He has shaggy jet black hair, green eyes, freckles, is very tall, and plays every sport known to man. Today he was wearing a red muscle shirt (which in my opinion is stupid), basketball shorts, and blue and white Lebrons. He's a year older than I am, and has his friends over at the house like three times every week. Highly annoying. He's the complete opposite of me, and is the MOST POPULAR BOY IN SCHOOL! I know, were nothing alike what so ever.
He finally tore his eyes away from his phone to see me, and automatically spit his soda out, spraying my room with Coke. "What happened to you?!" He said in between a laugh attack. I huffed and shoved him out of the room. "Mom, I'm gonna be late for school." I whined. She checked the clock the ushered me downstairs. I grabbed my stuff, took a huge bite of a granola bar, swallowed, then popped a heart shaped mint in my mouth before walking outside. And yeah, I like mints, don't judge me.
I sat on the steps, and took out my phone while waiting for the bus.
Me: I. Look. Like. Barbie.
Eve: I can't wait to see this!
Ashlyn: Lol, same!
Me: Guyssss
Eve: We'll wait for u by your locker
Ashlyn: C u then
Me: Yeah, c u then
I stuffed my phone in my pocket as the bus pulled up, took the front seat to draw less attention to my self, and stared out the window. Here we go.
