you wake up to the sound of your alarm.
the first day of school.
you tiredly sit up and turn off your alarm. you wrap up in your comforter and make your way downstairs. you walk into the kitchen to see your dad cooking pancakes.
you rub your eyes "morning"
"good morning y/n. you ready for your first day of junior year?"
"meh" you had very little interest in going back. you weren't in the mood to deal with anyone. your best friend millie was the only person you were exited about seeing. you were least excited to see sadie. she hated you for no reason, you and her used to be best friends, until the summer before high school started and she suddenly stopped talking to you.
"cheer up it's gonna be a great year!" he tried to reassure you. but it wasn't working
"yeah. maybe" you walked back up to your room to get dressed. you looked through your dresser for what seemed like forever, until you finally decided on a pair of mom jeans and an old t- shirt you got from your parents, it was from a concert. you put your hair into a pony tail and went to the bathroom to brush your teeth. once you were ready you grabbed your bag and ran downstairs. your younger sister mia was eating breakfast with your dad.
"hey sweetie, do you want a ride to school?"
"no it's ok. i'll ride my bike. I'm meeting up with Millie."
"oh, okay. have a good day!"
"bye!" you ran out the door, hopped on your bike, and drove off to school.

at school
————
you walk inside and try to get to your locker. the halls were crowded with students trying to find their classes, girls catching up on the gossip they missed over the summer, and teachers trying to calm kids down. you get to your locker and put your bag in. you grab the books you need and shut it. you walk to where millie is standing.
"hey mills!"
"hey girl!!"
"what's your first class?"
"English with mr smith. i heard if you fall asleep in his class he gives you extra homework for a week"
you laugh "good luck with that. i have math, which is ok" math was your favourite subject, and your best.
"so.. I've been talking to noah a bit lately"
noah was this boy millie really liked
"oh?"
"i think he might actually like me!!"
you laugh "that's great mills"
"now we just need to find you a man"
"no- that's ok"
"there's gotta be someone you like"
"there isn't"
that was a lie. there is. his name was jaeden.
"i should get going. don't wanna be late for english.. ew"
"see you at lunch" you laugh as she makes a funny face and walks off to class. english was on the other side of the building, so she had to leave a couple minutes early. math was close so you had a bit. you stand there awkwardly alone until someone walks up and bumps into you, causing you to drop all your books
"oops.. sorry"
you turn around to see sadie standing behind you
you bend down and pick up all your stuff. sadies boyfriend finn comes up and hugs her from behind
sadie kisses finn and then remembers you're standing there
"looks like we have a small audience today finnie"
you roll your eyes
"i'm going now" you start to walk away until she has to open her mouth and say another snarky comment
"you're really making a fashion statement huh"
you turn around
"what?"
"that shirt. it's just so... unique."
"my parents got it for me.. at a concert."
"yep.. real trendy" she laughs
"yeah.. i happen to like it. uh.. my mom got it" you want to remove yourself from this conversation. you didn't want it to seem like you wanted attention. but you really did like the shirt.. not for how it looked. but because your mom got it for you. your mom got into a car accident and passed away a year ago, it's been tough but you try to keep things positive.
"sadie we should get to class" finn said
"yep.. see you later y/n." She gave you a rude look and walked off

your POV
i grabbed my things from my locker and walked outside. it was raining. great. i ran over to my bike and struggled to undo the lock holding it to the bike rack. i hear a car pull up beside me and i turned around to see finn
he hopped out of his jeep and walked over to me
"are you really going to ride your bike home in the rain?"
"yeah.. why not?"
"do you want a ride?"
"no"
"are you sure?"
"yes I'm sure. sadie already hates me and me driving home with you would only give her another reason to hate me"
"come on I'm sure she won't mind. i can't just let you ride home in the rain"
"no"
I finally get the lock undone and hop on my bike. I start to ride home, but finn follows me in his jeep, slowly driving beside me
i ignore him and keep riding. he rolls down his window
"just get in"
"i said no"
it starts to rain even harder, along with thunder
"please y/n just let me drive you home"
"fine."
I got off my bike and got into the passenger seat
we drove home in silence.
