A piercing scream. That sounded like, Kat? Helena woke up with a start. Not knowing if it was a dream or not. She turned her head to look at her alarm clock. 4:00. "Ugh, stupid dreams." She sighed, shaking her head. She closed her eyes, and tried to fall back asleep. But she couldn't. The piercing scream replayed in her head. "Stop Helena." She told herself, running a hand through her hair. "This isn't the time for this."
Helena woke up, her alarm clock said 9:00. "Crap, I over slept. Now what will Kat do, sit there and wait for an hour?" She got out of bed, and took off her pajamas, and put on some clean clothes. Today. She thought in her head. I will wear my favorite crop top, and black leggings. She went downstairs, to have breakfast. Fine. She thought in her head. Cold chicken nuggets it is.
Helena rode her bike to Kat's house, the cold wind burning her face. "Hey Kat, sorry I'm late. I over slept." "Oh, that's no problem." Kat said, the hint of a smile on her face. "Hey, stop laughing!" Helena said playfully. "I'm not!" Kat said, cracking up. "Ok, for real. We're gonna be late for school if you don't hurry your butt up. Get your bike Kat!" "Fine,fine." She got her bike out, and put on her helmet. "Safety first!" She said. "Hey Kat." "Yeah?" Kat said. "I'll race you there!" "Hey!" Kat yelled after her, "That's not fair! I want a rematch!"
