Goddamnit, I'm sick of the same day over and over, I thought to myself, same frickin' routine and nothing to show for it this school is highkey bummy. Before I get lost in thoughts let me introduce myself. My name is Isaac and I'm a senior in high school. I am the star athlete on our football, basketball, and baseball team. I have an extended family in my house, which at times can be fun, but others, well let's not talk about it. I live with my mom and dad, my living grandparents, my mom's dad, and my dad's mom, two brothers, a sister, two uncles, one aunt, and two cousins. I sing I've given to charities, and I have multiple division one college offers. I also lead the school in followers on Instagram, I'm really well known. Let me tell you this story about...

"Isaac! If you are daydreaming again, I'd advise you stop. We are doing something different today." My teacher Mr. Morgan was always up my ass, but being in this school system for many years opposed to my old town, I'm already used to disappointment.

I nodded, WOW I really care, maybe we aren't taking notes today that'd be new, I thought to myself. Or at least I thought I only thought it. Next second the whole class is looking at me, some in shock of my boldness, some laughing, and good old Morgan, well yikes.

"I'm sick of you being a smart ass which is why I'm sending you and your classmates, or fans in your case on a week and a half trip with a well-trusted man."

This man had to be bugging. "Woah Woah Woah. First off you can't even get half of a week because there are seven days in one. And secondly, I have the state championship football game tomorrow so I don't know what you expect."

"You're lucky that it starts a week from today I just wanted to prepare you all for what lies ahead."

I had no idea what this man was saying so I just went to sleep.

Later that day, my close friend Lily came over to do homework. Many people say she likes me, but I have my eyes on this one girl in my class her name won't be shared. Plus, me and Lily have been friends since kindergarten. If I do that it'd be mad awkward. My parents really like her, sometimes more than they like me. Like we'll have huge dinners when she's over and other days I'll be lucky to get a sandwich without being yelled at.

"Best friend! You have any plans before the big trip?"

I looked at her and decided to be the clown I am, "Well we don't know how much privacy everyone will have so before that I gotta do some man stuff for the days I have left. November is over anyway."

"Ew buddy you are absolutely nasty, but why do that yourself when you have a friend like me?"

That caught me off guard. See I have no problems rocking the boat, but this is my lifetime friend. "Lil, what do you mean? Don't you have a boyfriend?" I had to make sure.

"He cheated, I'm single, and you look millions of times better anyway, I just couldn't tell you at first."

I looked at her like a confused dog. "So you what do you want?"

"I didn't come for just homework, I really want you, it's our senior year, we may go to different colleges, why not just go off on a bang."

I looked at her with so much interest, I can't even explain, like my bestie is hot, and I can't talk about the rest of the night, just know it was the wildest moment in my life. No cappin'.
