Elizabeth's P. O. V
"BEEP, BEEP, BEEEEEEEEEEPPPP" "ugh damn alarm clock" I mutter, why couldn't someone invent a silent alarm clock?

Because then you wouldn't wake up my inner voice said in a duh tone, yeah whatever I still think a silent alarm would be better.

Getting up at 7:30 in the morning is not as easy as some people think I mean come on that's the worst time to wake up and I don't drink coffee so there is absolutely no way I can be in working mode. I'm not a hater against coffee I just don't drink it and as you can clearly tell I'm not a morning person, like I can sleep 19 hours straight and when I wake up I'm still tired. I'm 17 and you'd think I would have more energy but no, I'm just tried all the time.

Dragging my sorry butt out of my bed is hard even for me and it's my sorry butt, but I managed to get to my restroom. I splash my face with some water so I can try to wake up and wash my face. Looking at myself in the mirror, my dark green eyes are what most people notice, my skin is kind of pale but not to where you can see my organs. I'm 5'5 average height not too small and not too tall, also I'm skinny and I have nice legs, I know that sounds weird but I'm not kidding my legs are well muscled cuz I run every afternoon once I'm done with work.

The next thing I notice is my dark brown hair looks bad instead of being long and wavy it's long and stuck, there's knots in my hair I'm not kidding. So I quickly grab my brush and get working, I love my hair but let me tell you if your hair is all the way down to your hips it's kind of hard to untangle long hair. Once I'm done, my hair is perfectly in a ponytail flowing down my back as wavy as ever, I look at the clock I have next to my sink and see that it's 8:05

"shit" I yell.

Damn I haven't even watered my plants, or dressed and I'm hungry, I can't be late to work it takes like 45 min to get to my job and I need to be there at 8:30. So pretty much I've spent all the time between 7:30 to 8:05 getting up and going to the restroom. I quickly dress into a dark green v- neck shirt that matches my eyes, put on black skinny jeans and slip on my sneakers that are also black.

I run down stairs grab a glass fill it up with water and run to my room again, my walls are painted light green I have a drawer, a full sized bed with grass green sheets, and cream colored carpet, one window that is nice and big, and right under it is a table full of plant. I have a whole bunch of plants, some are just pretty flowers, herbs, roses, and vines, I water them and then leave.

40 mins later I arrive at my job, I work at a bookstore.... Well to be more precise I work at Barnes & Noble! Cool huh I know. Slamming my car door I rush to my post with Chick- fil- a sandwiches and one cookies and cream milkshake and one chocolate milkshake. Busting through the door I run into my manager, oh boy this is going to be fun I mentally say to myself

"Well hello there Elizabeth so glad you decided to show up to work today" says my manager Mrs. Williams

"Haha yeah hi Mrs. Williams umm.... Time just slipped away from me today, but ..... I brought you a chickfila sandwich and your favorite milkshake chocolate" I say sheepishly smiling

"You know that milkshake and sandwich won't get you out of trouble right" she scolds

"Yeah" I reply smiling cuz I know she's going to take it anyways

"But I can't let a perfectly good sandwich and milkshake go to waste so I guess I'll take it this time, now hurry up and go to your post" she smiles at me and takes the food and drink I got her.
