Morning are terrible.
Mornings are dull and sleepy and sometimes you can end up rolling down the stairs like a freaking wheel because you missed a step while you're still half asleep.

Don't mind me I'm just not a morning person.
I stumble into the kitchen and down my mug of coffee.
Then I change.

Do you know why I don't like Disney princesses? Because whenever they get up from sleep, their hair is always freaking Perfect.
I think Anna from Frozen is the only human Disney princess, because she wakes up with a bird nest on her head, just like me.

My phone vibrates in my pocket.
I pick it up.
"Ello?..." I mumble.
"Are you dressed? If you aren't we're gonna be late an-"
"Who are you" I say bluntly.
" Meg!! Just because you've been away a year you can't possibly have-"
"Denzil?" I ask, pulling the phone away from my ear to look at the caller ID.
"Yes you douche. Get ready and come quick, I can't pick you up today cos I'm late myself"
She hangs up on me.
I have school today?
I groan and go back to my room to change.
Then I tame my raven Black bird's nest​ into a high pony .

I lock up my house and get on my bike.
I cycle all the way to school.
A year ago, my dad died in a road accident, leaving us financially unstable.
My mother is a proud woman, she refused money from my uncle, her brother, and instead begged that he take me in.
So I moved to NYC for a year while my mother worked day and night to procure a home and be able to pay my school fees.
I moved back this year when she finally got the house.

My cousin in NYC was a fashion freak and got rid of all my baggy clothes and wouldn't let me cut my messy hair.
I refused to get rid of my fake glasses though, because I can't do without them.
So technically ,I'm still​ a nerd, and getting straight A's doesn't only adds to the title.
I reach school and stash my bike away at the stands.
In the halls, I spot Denzil immediately.
Her name is Kaya Denzil, and she is blonde, with large blue eyes behind large red glasses. Her hair is pulled into a tight bun and she wakes knitted sweaters and flip flops.
I've always thought she was rather pretty, if she wasn't always shying away.

I walk past her saying "come"
But she stands right there.
I backtrack and snap my fingers in her face.
"What do you want?" She asks, lips trembling.
"Denzil!!" I whine "it's been a year an all but you can't possibly-" I begin
"Megan?!" She says, startled.
"No, I'm the Boogeyman man" I say sarcastically.
She grabs my hand and beggins dragging me to the office.
"They have already started issuing the-" I tune her out as I see a tall blonde girl with fuzzy hair, standing at her locker and staring at me like I was something unpleasant she discovered at the bottom of her shoe.
She glared and glared and glared and suddenly she broke out into a whicked smile........

I hardly had time to react before a foot was stuck out in my path and I tripped over onto my hands​ and knees.
I slowly picked myself up and without looking I began walking away when a hand grabbed my wrist.
"Wait".
I spun on my heels.
See, the other thing my cousin couldn't stand was how I always stood down and never fought back. So she thought me not to.
I looked straight into his sparkling blue eyes.
"What" I sneered.
He looked startled for a second, not expecting the nerd to sound so tough.
"My shoe- you dirtied it" he said.
"Woopsy daisy" I say dryly, stepping hard on his shoe.
By now the blonde fuzzball had come to stand by him, linking her arm with his. His tight black top hides nothing.
Oh holy moly look at that body...
My stupid hormonal mind.
"Like what you see?" He grins.
Uh huh....
No wait what!!! No!!
"Oh shut it, son of a salsa dip! As if I'd ever want you" I say with aparrent disgust.
" Don't be in denial sweetheart" he winks.
" Did your mother drop you as a kid?" I ask.
"Now you've had it nerd!" He says, growling.
"Run!" I scream to myself as I glide down the hallway faster than I knew I could.
Fear sure gives you wings, and I'm out of sight in no time.
Boy, what a start to the first day of school eh?.
