*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

I've tried playing it cool...

I woke up to a song that I had never heard. Then I remembered it was 5:30 in the morning. I'm never actually up this early to hear these songs. Even though I was skipping school I still had to get up earlier than if I was going, which stinks.

Shot me out of the sky...

I found myself humming to this song like I had heard it a million times, as I went around my room picking up clothes so that all my laundry would be clean. I stopped at my closet, pulled out my suitcase, and set it on my bed.

Something's got to give now...

Thankfully I only had to run my washer once to get all my dirty clothes clean. After I put those clothes in the washer, I started picking out clothes for...Florida!

So get out, get out, get out of my head. And fall into my arms instead...

All the time I was packing I had that song stuck in my head. I was humming it as I was folding the clothes that I had just started that morning.

"Hey, sweetie. How are you? You were up early this morning and doing chores, are you alright?" my mom questioned. She walked into my room.

"Yes, I just couldn't sleep", I told her.

Looking a little hurt she responded, "Well, good. Are you all packed and ready to go?"

"Um-" I said as I was thinking, "Swimming suits: check, Shorts: check, Tank-tops: check, Etc." After remembering what else I needed I told my mom, "Not quite, I still need a few things."

"Okay. Can you be ready in about two hours?"

"Uh yeah, I should. Why?"

"I might get us an earlier flight out."

"Yay!" I said to my mom as she walked out of my room.

I walked over to my bed and picked up my phone and texted John. Just found out we mite have an earlier flight.

Then I decided to text Ben too. Sorry if I wake you up, my mom just told me that we might get an earlier flight out. When can I meet you? Putting my phone down I saw the battery in the corner flashing so I plugged it in beside my bed and sat at my desk.

"Ughhh so bored!" I thought. So I turned on my stereo and plugged in my IPod and hit play.

The lights go out all around me. One last candle to keep out the night.

I sighed. This was one of my favorite songs but it is a little sad.

I Know I'm alive but I feel like I've died.

I just sang along. I don't tell people I like these songs because I don't want anyone to think I am odd. For some reason I was hoping Ben would text me back so I can talk to him before I leave. But I am still mad at John for what he did.

My whole world is the pain inside me; the best I can do is just get through the day. When life before is only a memory, I'll wonder why God lets me walk through this place.

I have these lines memorized, like most of the songs on my iPod. My phone buzzed.

Just got up. Meet @ cafe on 3rd? 20 min? dont 4get hw & key!

I laughed at Ben, how can he think he is a nerd? In his text there was slang and symbols!

I won't. It's in my car already. Ur so not a nerd! See ya there!
