Not So Ordinary Life

Old book 2014 {Which is better?}

Mum pulled out of car port leaving me there just as the bell went for start of school. Ugh I hate school. I headed for the gate into school just as my bestie crashed into me from behind! "Ooof!" "Hey Ash, whatcha doooin" Lilly asked sarcastically. "Aw you know, nothing much" I said with a smile. We both laughed and walked through the gate and headed to our class. Me and Lilly have always been best friends and so have our parents, babies to year 9, we will always be besties, to the end of time and beyond! See she knows my secret and so does her mum and they're both fine with it.

Lilly has the most gorgeous big blue eyes, when you look into them it's like she's staring right into your soul. She has bleach blond hair and fair skin and a stunning personality. Everyone was already sitting down and Mr Murray was already halfway through when we got to roll call class.
"Ramos?" "Here!" "Thomas?" "Present!" "Ash?......Ash?" "Aha? Yes! I'm here" "Ally?" "Yup" "Lilly?" "Yeah!" "Alex?" "here" "Jasmine?" "here!".......

Mr Murray finished up calling our names so we started to talk about our weekends and stuff. I found out it was Jasmines birthday on the weekend and she invited everybody, except for me...
Jasmine is a absolute, total bitch, one of the worst and so's her minions, Abby and Lizette. They aren't actually her minions, they're her very best friends, top of the list but in my opinion they're like minions cause they do everything Jasmine tells them to do. It's actually quite amusing.
The bell rang for end of roll call so I got up and walked with Lilly to 1st period.
"Oh, hey Ash" Jasmine walked up to me giggling softly to herself. "So I trust you heard about my party? It's going to be awesome, oh and Ramos is going. Haha! Oh and there's going to be some great music there, I'm hiring a dj, ohh and heaps of party lights and stuff! Its a pool party so obviously bring your bikini haha. It's going to be a blast! You'll enjoy it" She smiled wickedly. "Oh wait, I didn't invite you! Hahaha, enjoy your weekend" She laughed in my face and walked away. "Oh I will" I said evilly while watching Jasmine walk away.

Lilly looked at me with concern.

"I'm guessing you're going to her party?" Ash smiled and replied "Oh hell yeah, it's going to be so fun!"

After school Ash and Lilly walked home in high spirits. They were half way home when Ash spotted a guy she didn't recognize, hmm he must be new.

Lilly was chattering and was walking backwards facing me, completely unaware of the new guy walking towards her. He was staring at the ground as he walked, not noticing Lilly at all. He had red hair and fair skin and was wearing a black and grey hoody with jeans and joggers on. I watched with undisguised horror as my best friend crashed into the new guy, tripping over his foot and knocked him forwards into me. I stumbled backwards when he whacked into me and tripped up on my foot.

"Lilly! Lilly, you good??" Lilly gave me a muffled reply then lifted her head off her hands and looked up at me. I helped her up and helped her brush off all the dust and dirt. We looked over at the new guy. "Hmm looks like Ranga over here is knocked out cold"

"Ranga" was lying on the white foot path with his head hanging over the gutter, knocked out cold.

Lilly turned her head around to look at Ash, her blonde curls bouncing and her blue eyes wide. "Did I do that??"

Lilly asked slightly out of breath, her blue eyes dancing with worry.

"Nonsense, he crashed into you, so it was his fault." Ash stared at Ranga, her mind working out what to do. "

Hey why don't we take him to your house??" Lilly suggested, looking up at Ash then back down at Ranga.

"What! No way! I don't have anywhere to put him!" Ash exclaimed. Ash knew she could probably fit him in her room, she could just tell her parents that he's one of her school friends, and wanted to come over to study together, or play the PS3 but fell over and hit his head in the way. That should work, but why in the world would she want a complete stranger in her bedroom??

"Aw come ooon, he can't stay at mine, my parents are a lot stricter about guys and stuff" Lilly pleaded giving Ash puppy dog eyes, "Plus, he's not bad looking" She winked then walked towards Ranga, grabbing him by the arms and looking back at Ash. "Pfft, fine, we'll take him to my house. "

Lilly started to haul him up the path by his feet, his head dragging on the ground and he was drooling? Yup he was drooling. "Lilly, I think we should pick him up off the ground, people might think we're trying to kill him or something" Lilly nodded and we pick him up and put our arms around his back to prop him up. I looked over at Lilly, her blonde curls were bobbing up and down with every step she took. Her little button nose was scrunched up with the effort of trying to move Ranga. He was actually pretty heavy. We got him to my house just after 4 and mum was home from work. "Ash, honey, who's that boy you and Lilly are holding up?" Mum looked at me with curiosity. " He's a friend, we were all going to study together but he fell over and hit his head. Do you think you could patch him up please?" Mum nodded and went to go get the first aid kit. I pulled his hoody down, revealing all his face and head. Lilly was right, he's kinda cute. I grinned at Lilly and she winked back, my grin got bigger and I just shoot my head, chuckling. "I wonder what his name is." Lilly said, looking at me. I just shrugged. Mum came back with the first aid kit and fixed him up and told us he should be fine tomorrow. We took him up to my bedroom and laid him in my bed. It is a king bed so there's heaps of room, plus Lilly helped me make a mini barrier down the middle of my bed with spare blankets and pillows in case he rolls over or makes any physical contact with me while I'm sleeping. Yes he's is cute but he's a stranger, for all I know he could be a murderer or a psychopath. Lilly and I went back down stares and did homework together. At 4:30 dad came home and around 6 Lilly went home and then my family and I all had dinner. It was my turn to wash up tonight so I did and it was as awful as usual, although I put most of the plates and cutlery in the dishwasher. Then I had my shower and went to bed. I reflected all the things that had happened today. And I wish I could have more dinner cause it was delicious. Steak, chips, gravy and salad. Yum.

I woke up feeling confused. Why was there blankets and stuff in the middle of my bed? I sat up on my elbow feeling groggy and looked over the mini wall. One pair of amber eyes stared back at me. "Shit! What the hell are you doing here?" My shout must of startled him because he jump and fell out of bed, knocking his head on my bedside table. He knocked himself out again, great. I got up out of bed and dragged him down stairs, carful to keep his head from bumping on the steps. Mum was still asleep because it was Saturday. I made myself breakfast and then picked him up off the floor and shoved him onto the chair next to me, he groaned and woke up. "What's your name?" He stared at me blankly, his face then scrunched up as he tried to remember, then his eyes lit up.
"Seth" he mumbled in a voice no louder than a whisper. Then the poor fellow fell back to sleep. He slept for 3 days, by this time my mum was worried his parents would be worried sick about him, so I told her I've already rung them.
I was watching the sun go down from my front lawn. I watched with an unwavering gaze, as a fiery red orb of light slowly sank beneath the horizon, and threads of light lingered in the sky, mingling with the rolling clouds, dyeing the heavens first orange, then red, then dark blue and indigo, until all that was left of the sunset was a chalky pale purple, and then that melted away in turn as inky darkness took over the sky. Sequin-silver stars like the glowing embers of a dying fire winked down at me, illuminating the atramentous curtain of sky, and then suddenly the clouds parted, and I found myself looking at a lustrous, argent disc casting brilliant rays of moonlight onto the dark grounds around my house. I sighed, then got up off the soft grass and walked inside to retire to my bedroom for a much needed sleep. I woke up to the sound of running water, someone was in my shower.
