   "Paris get up! Your gonna be late for your last day of school! Your alarm has been going off for 5 minutes." My mom yelled as loud as she could, making sure I could hear it up stairs in my room. As I woke up from her annoying yelling I checked the time. "It's 7:05! I have to be at the city bus in 40 minutes!" I put on my uniform and makeup making sure I look perfect for my last day of school.

   "Bye Mom! Love you!" I tried to rush out the door without her noticing that I didn't eat breakfast but her motherly instinct kicked in. "Dont tell me that your going to school without having breakfast." I tried to persuade her in to letting me go to the bus without it because I would be late to the bus but that didn't help my case either. She walked in to kitchen and shoved a banana in my hand. "At least eat this Paris." "Fine..."

   I wasn't that I wasn't hungry, I just had an exact schedule to meet with my friends. I'm always on time and I can't ruin my reputation just because it's the last day of school.

   " 7:40 I'm pretty sure I can make it! I see the stop down there!" I ran as fast I could but I'm not a huge athlete. I run at a jogging speed but I pace myself so I don't run out of breath. As I get the stop the bus is at the light, giving me a good much needed break. It's not that easy running in heels.

  As I step foot on the bus I see my crush. His name is Mark. He's tall, dark hair, and blue eyes like the ocean. Him and I are the complete opposite. He likes sports and I don't care for them, he's popular and I'm not, and last I like him and he doesn't look my way.

  I sit down and make sure nobody saw me staring at him. I couldn't help but eve drop on something he said, "My parents are making me go to Carol All Boys High School after summer." I knew I heard it right because they were talking about it the whole bus ride right in front of me like they were mocking me.

   This was going to be the best day of the year but it turned out to be the worst. Even though I knew that I didn't have a chance with him , I felt like this up coming year would be the one I got close to him. I did't know at the time that fate had something in store for me.
