As the week went by, I just got more excited and more excited about Saturday. I mean, what girl wouldn't be? I mean, this really sweet and really gorgeous boy asked me to the ball! He was just the sweetest guy at the car wash Tuesday evening. Well, he reminded me of James when he made everyone think he was naked behind the sign. Is that weird?
I thought I was the lucky girl who got the 'it boy' at Base. I was just happy. I wash glowing for crying out loud! That night at James's room got me a bit confused but James was happy for me, right? He had to be! By the way he took things, I think he was really happy that I found someone.
Today was Friday and the week zoomed by like it was nothing. I couldn't wait to get to school and maybe be able to see him again. "Alea!! Come down! you're going to be late for school!" my mom yelled from downstairs. "coming mom!" I ran down the stairs dressed, wearing my best. Today was a dress down to those who had perfect attendance throughout the week and I was one of those students. I decided to wear my strapless shirt that was white on the chest area. It had a thick belt and right below the belt, there were three large, back ruffles. I wore my black cardigan and dark blue denim shorts.
"By mom" I said grabbing an apple and rushing out the door with my turquoise Jansport bag on one shoulder. I walked down to the bus stop, putting my green Urbanears earbuds in my ears while it started playing "Pearl" by Katy Perry. As I walked, I stepped my feet to the beat while humming to it.
I met up with Joy at the bus stop. "hey joy! You excited for today." I said excited. Joy was more of an acquaintance than a close friends. We held short convos on the bus and at school. "Yea!! I just hope someone actually asks me." her voice was hopeful. Joy was a gorgeous girl, but boys have turned her down. I don't see why though. She was one of the sweetest people I've ever met and she was a bundle of joy. No pun intended.
"someone will. I promise you." I said, giving hope in her eyes. My I touch was on a key perry frenzy. It started playing "Hummingbird Heartbeat.". I couldn't help but remember that time James snuck into my room to have a little all nighter/ sandman game that my parents never found out about.
We made a video on my laptop with the webcam playing this song and lipsyncing. James took out my extra mic I hid in my drawer, my pink boa, and my big girls shades and sang along. It was the funniest sight I have ever seen. I haven't seen that video in a while. I took out my phone and put a reminder alarm to tell me to watch the video later.

When I got to school, the girls were just waiting by the gate for the boys to come. DAMN! These girls were crazy!! When I walked through the gate, all I heard was "OH MY GOT THEY'RE HERE!!!" by some random girl that seemed over excited. I tried to avoid the madness and went to my English teacher's class.
"Oh hey Alea! What brings you here?" Ms. Smith asked with a huge smile on her face. She was at the back of the blue room on her laptop. "ugh, crazy girls." I said laughing. "you mind if I hang out here til first period?" I asked her placing my bag down. "Of course not! Just make sure you don't get killed after first period ok?" she laughed. "haha sure thing!" I took my laptop out of my bag and got an IM from Sam's iPhone.
" hey! Where you at? The boys are here!!"
"I know, I'm trying to stay away f rom the crazed girls until first period."
"smart. What room are you at? Jason keeps asking me about you"
Oh my god... HE'S HERE!!! Ok, play cool Alea.
"I'm in Ms Smiths class."
"ok. I'm on. My way."
They're coming!!!!! AHH!!! Ok, Everything will be fine.
