It's the last week of summer, and I'm stressing about school already.

Our new next door neighbors moved in today. I didn't look in the window when they moved in, I locked myself in my room, shut the curtains, and slept the remainder of the day away. Which was a pretty good plan tbh. It's the last day of summer, and I didn't wanna do anything.

I don't really give a shit anymore. I'm Sierra Green and I'm 16, I'm starting my junior year of high school tomorrow. 

I honestly don't think it's very healthy for a teenage girl to spend her entire summer in her room. Unless going to the kitchen once a day counts? 

When I finally awoke from my slumber, it was because there were raging party sounds outside. Obviously, they were the new neighbors, since the entire neighborhood was just filled with elderly people. But why would they throw a party when they just moved in this morning? I got up from my bed to look outside, and sure enough, it was a party. What the fuck? School starts tomorrow! Why the fuck would someone throw a party on first day of school eve?

I went down to the kitchen to a tired looking mother. My father is never home. I love him, but he's a busy man. He's a businessman, always on trips. Sometimes he's even gone for months. I feel really bad saying this, since many people don't have fathers, but I kind of like it when he's gone. It's kind of like more freedom, in a way. As if he could stop me or my mom from doing anything, he's too cool and quiet to do shit like that. My parents aren't that overprotective, but they do care about me. 

My mom's a nurse. She works all day too, so my parents are literally never home. Why was she home at this hour? It's only 7 pm, she usually works from 7 am to 11 pm. Oh yeah, on Sundays she has a day off. It's not that my parents are poor, they just love their jobs. They would never complain or think of quitting. The pay is good, they're happy, why would they quit?

"Hey mom," I said.

"Hey, honey, what's up?" She replied

"Did you hear the neighbors? They're loud already" I groaned.

She sighed, "Yeah"

"We're gonna have to deal with it," I said with a pout.

She turned away to pour herself a glass of water.

I trudged all the way back upstairs, suddenly feeling exhausted. I slept the whole fucking day, and I'm still tired? I threw on a black graphic sweatshirt and some skinny jeans with my vans, and put my hair up in a bun. Then I grabbed my keys and rushed to the door after telling my mom I was leaving. She sat on the couch with her glass of water.

"Hey mom, do you want anything from the diner?"

"No thank you, baby. Don't stay out too late remember, you have school tomorrow."

"Byyye mom.."

"Bye Sierra."

I got in my car and drove to the nearest diner

I got in my car and drove to the nearest diner. I was starving! I turned on the radio and Questions by Chris Brown came on. I love this song! I turned it all the way up and danced along to the rhythm of the song. I live for moments like this when I'm feeling myself!

When I pulled up at the diner parking lot, I parked my car and walked into the diner. There were so many familiar faces, I lived in a small town. It was one of those places where everyone knew each other. I smiled mostly to myself and sat myself down in a booth. The waitress came over and asked for my order.

"Um, I'll just have the chicken and waffles and a sugar free red bull with ice please," I said.

"Sure" She smiled and dashed to the counter. I love red bull, it's literally my favorite drink. I don't know what's up with me, suddenly craving chicken and waffles in the middle of the night. No, I am not pregnant, I'm a virgin. Yup, 15 and a virgin. Why may you ask? KAIFI.

I was just casually scrolling on tumblr, with my AirPods in, then I saw him enter the diner..
