"Hey Ashley," said my best friend, Madilynn or Maddie for short.
"Hey Maddie," I said.
"Want to hang out after school?" asked Maddie.
"Sorry can't, I'm babysitting my niece and nephew, Brandon and Sofia," I said.
"I can help," Maddie said.
"Fine, as long as we actually watch them, instead of doing what we want to do." I said.
"Yes ma'am!" Maddie said.
"Hey guys." said my other friend, Sabrina.
"Hey Sabrina." I said.
"Hey, what's up?" said Lexi, the rudest girl in school, "fatherless girl."
"I do have a father he is just a soldier, Lexi." I said and in my head I said "Would if I do become fatherless?"
"Her father's in the war saving our country and you should respect that Lexi, but apparently you don't," Sabrina said sticking up for me.
"Lexi, if you can't respect that he is fighting for your and our nation's protection, then you don't need his protection," Maddie said also sticking up for me.
"Ughhh, Let's go girls." Lexi said and left with her friends.
"Don't listen to her." said Sabrina.
"I don't, what makes you think I do?" I said while fake laughing.
"Well, you're fake laughing." Sabrina said.
"No I'm not, and I don't listen to her, she is a stuck up, spoiled brat." I said laughing for real.
"I agree." said Sabrina laughing.
"Me too." Maddie said laughing.
The bell rang and we all left for class. "Hello class," my teacher, Mrs. Blake said, "Do the bellwork that I put on the smartboard."
The bellwork was really easy math problems. I got done with them really easily, but a kid in my class, named Derek, didn't. I think Derek has a crush on me, because when I asked if he needed help he took one look at me and yelled yes, then started stuttering.
After the morning classes were over I went to lunch. "BOO!" Ash snuck up behind me and scared me.
"AHHHHH!! Why would you do that!?" I screamed.
"Because it's funny," Ash said "and you should have seen the look on your face."
"Are you scaring Ashley again?" Ashlynn came out of nowhere and I got scared...again. Meanwhile, Ash didn't get scared at all.
"What is it with people always scaring me?" I asked getting annoyed that I got scared so easily, which is weird, because I love horror movies.
"It's not our fault that you get scared so easily," Maddie said coming out of nowhere along with Sabrina, and of course it scared me, but yet again Ash nor Ashlynn got scared.
"I hate that I get scared easily," I said clearly annoyed that I kept getting scared.
"That's not our fault," Ashlynn said while holding in her laugh.
I really do love all my friends and family. After lunch school went by as normal aka boring. After school I walked home with Maddie and got ready to babysit Brandon and Sofia.
