Just another drop in the ocean

I thought today would be different

(Elena's pov)

I wake up and pick out a pink short sleeve shirt and some skinny jeans with some converse to match. I put on my usual gold eyeshadow with mascara. I then walk into Mya's room to check and see if she's ready and I see she is dressed

In a low cut pink shirt with black lace on the back with some leggings and pink stilettos to Match her shirt.and then she turned around with dark makeup. she's so outgoing she doesn't really care what people think of her. I walk back in my room to write in my diary this is what I wrote "Dear Diary, Today will be different. It has to be. I will smile, and it will be believable. My smile will say, "I'm fine, thank you. Yes, I feel much better." I will no longer be the sad little girl that lost her parents. I will start fresh, be someone new. It's the only way I'll make it through."

(Mya's pov)

I write in my diary since Elena says it's a good way to let out my emotions I wrote this,

"Dear diary, today will be

Different from the others it has to be. I will hide my emotions from everyone like usual. I will smile and pretend I'm over my parents death. but me and Elena both know it's all an act. I will let go of the past start new. it's the only way I will make it through."

Me and Elena both walk downstairs and pull Jeremy out the door and drive to the school Jeremy and Elena walk inside while I stand outside. "new memories to be made. start fresh remember that" I say while walking into the school. I walk into the office to grab my schedule and Elena is already in there. "here" she says while smiling I take my schedule and look at it I have, history first period,English second period, French third period, lunch, science 5th, and study hall for last hour. I look over at Elena's and she has the same classes. good at least I'll be With Elena. me and Elena walk out of the office and see Jeremy walk into the bathroom I look over at Elena and see she's gonna go after him I grab her arm "I got it stay here" I say reassuringly she just smiles at me and nods I walk into the bathroom and immediately get weird looks from the guys "what are you looking at?" I say while glaring "really Jer? we have been here 10 minuets and your already stoned." "I'm not stoned" "really because your eyes say otherwise" "whatever Jeremy go ahead do it but I will be there to ruin it every single time got it?" he just shoved past me and walked out "god why is he like this" I mumble to myself I walk out of the bathroom and run into a guy a very attractive guy at that "uh? is this the men's room" he asked confused "yea" I say embarrassed "long story" I say while smiling I go to the left but so does he so I go to the right and so does he. he moves

To the side while Smiling I walk past him and right before I turn the corner I look back at him. I arrive in Mr. Tanners room and sit at a window seat and look out of it until I hear the door open and close the guy from the bathroom walks in and sits next to me. I smile at him as he sits down I take a couple glances at him out of the corners of my eye a couple

Of times. I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket so I look at it and see it's from Elena "haw-the staring at you" I look at the text then at the guy and

Smile I then try to pay attention to Mr. Tanners lesson but all I can focus on is this mystery guys eyes on me the whole time.

(Skip day)

Me and Elena walk to the cemetery to write in out diaries like we usually do after school I sit across from mom and dads grave and Elena sits next to me I wrote this in my

Diary, "I made it through the day I must have said I'm fine thanks at least 47 times. when people ask you how are you they don't really want an answer" I look up and see Elena's gone she must have snuck away when she saw how focused I was at writing in my
