Have you ever had one of those things they call beauty sleeps, yeah I haven't, ever, it's never happened. But I could imagine it would be nice, I just can't bring myself too.
I asked One of my friends one time how I could get beauty sleep, she said go to bed at 8:00 pm and then wake up at 6:00 am. So naturally I went to bed at 8:00 pm, took a nap, woke up at midnight, played video games till 3:00 am, went to bed, then woke up at 8:30 and was late for school.
Skills am I right, well here I am standing in front of the mirror looking at myself while 30 min late for school. That story I told you about, yeah that was today. I am screwed. I missed the bus which meant I am walking whole mile to school, in the snow.
I put on a beanie and walked out the door. A brisk breeze hit my face and my nose immediately froze. You could see a light gray whisp come out of my mouth. Everything around me looked like it was right out of a Narnia book, it was beautiful but cold.
I walked to school enjoying the fresh air. I was almost there when I saw a coffee hut. I'm already late so I may as well make it worth my while, I thought walking in. The smell was immaculate I got a mocha and left to continue my journey to school.
It was 2nd period by the time I arrived. I walked in the building, and started towards my class. I was half way there when I realized that I had drama class. I liked drama enough, in fact I was really good drama. The problem was that my principal would probably burst through interrupting us and I would get in trouble.
At the moment we were doing the play of Romeo and Juliet and well I got Juliet which is very exciting.Romeo is a kid named Ben who is short and a little weird but nice enough.When I walked in the drama room, they had already started.
"Rosa welcome, we are doing the bit right after intermission love," my drama teacher Mrs. S said.
"Thanks Mrs. S"
We started rehearsing all was going well until the door opened.
"ROSA VRIES!!" My principal screeched.
"Yes."
"You didn't show up to 1st period!"
"That's correct," I said in a snarky way.
"DETENTION!"
"Ugh fine I will be there if I have time," I joked. In return he handed me a green slip of paper.
He grunted and walked away. I hated detention. It was so boring all you can do is sit there and stare at the wall. I excused myself for a minute and texted Matthew and Phil saying I couldn't make it because I had detention. I was not looking forward to the rest of the day.
The rest of Drama went quickly, as did most of my classes except, Social Studies, which took a century. It was a fairly good day and I only wanted to throw about 5 idiots in the pit and not see them again.
Before I knew it, it was time for detention. Yey! Did you catch my sarcasm there. I walked to the detention room and sat in the back corner by the window. I contemplated breaking the window and making a run for it but I figured I was not quite strong enough to break the glass. I should have worked harder in PE. I decided to instead doodle on the desk.
The teacher didn't care that I was doodling or notice at all since they fell asleep 5 min into detention. That's also why they didn't care when Dan Howell walked through LATE and sat next to me.
"Hey," he said.
"Sup," I nodded back continuing with drawing the dragon on my desk.
"Why are you here?"
"Was late to school."
"Ohh I see, I got yelled at for eating candy in health class."
"That's not enough to get detention nit wit," I said with venom in my voice.
"You didn't let me finish. After he yelled at me about candy not being a good example. I said that health being taught by a fat middle aged man with a coke in his hand was a bad example too."
I laughed.
"So she does laugh."
I stopped, "At things that are funny."
I smiled at him wishing for just one second that he wasn't popular and that I could trust him. Just one second of forgetting about my trust issues created by bad relationships of the past. Just a second of thinking I could go back to how I was before, but alas it was only a second.
He smiled back, "You have a lovely smile, too bad I don't see it much."
I looked at him, "Did Dan Howell just say something that's not an inappropriate pickup line to me."
"What did you think pickup lines were all I had," he showed his dimples and I melted a little.
"Actually yeah I did," I admitted.
"Well, taking into consideration how well plan C worked I say we bust out of here and I buy you an ice cream for plan D."
"Did you just ask me out, in detention?"
"Maybe"
"Sorry Howell but it will take more then saying I have a pretty smile to got me on a date. But I will admit this is the closest you have gotten," I smirked at his surprised face. He isn't used to getting rejected.
I know what your thinking, Rosa you have a crush on the boy! Why didn't you go out with him. Well first of dating isn't really my thing, nor is trusting. Think of it this way, I know the only reason he is doing this is because he likes the chase. When the chase stops who knows if he'll stay.
Besides even if he does stay, what if I want to leave and he won't let me. In short dating is messy and not my scene. So why not have fun playing cat and mouse for a while.
"I guess plan D is back at the drawing board but I am still getting us out of here," he said determined.
"Thanks, but allow me," I said, "Teacher!"
They woke up with a startle, "Yes Rosa."
"Your car is getting towed away!" they ran out of the room, but not before locking the door so we could not get out.
"Shit!" I cursed.
"Allow me now," Dan said cockily. He picked the lock with a credit card and opened the door.
"My Lady," he said with a goofy smile.
"Thank you kind sir," I laughed while walking out.
So that's how Dan and I ended up running through the hall avoiding a teacher who thought their car was gone while laughing our asses off.
What will tomorrow hold.
