Theres Always A Way

Alyah's POV. CH 1

Beep

BEEP

BEEEEEP

"Ugh...." I groan rolling out of bed.

"Alyah!!!!!" yells Marco, my annoying cousin, as he jumps on my bed.

"GET. OUT. NOW."

"But Al its the first day of school! don't you need to get up to, I dunno, look like a GIRL?" he smarted at me. That worked my last nerve already I threw my pillow, blanket, alarm clock, and basically anything in arms reach at him until he left.

I got up, stumbling a little, then looked at my room.

'Damn it.' I mumbled since my rooms a disaster now. I walk around my room admiring my work a little. I just moved here and finished setting up my room yesterday. It was perfect. I painted my walls white with black artistic designs three out it. I had a chair that hung from my ceiling made out of a twine kind of material with a white sheet, blue cushion and two violet little pillows. I had my TV across my bed, three black bean bags and a walk in closet. Perfect right? And then I had a wall and shelve dedicated to my parents. They were deployed to Iraq when I was eight. Two months before they were supposed to come home, we got the yellow letter. Nothing comes good of a yellow letter. I hate yellow.

So I gather my thoughts back and realized I had 45 minutes to get ready. I go to the bathroom, brush my teeth and put on mascara, Nude eye shadow, with a light coat of eye liner, and some light powder pink matte lip stick, and a touch of glitter on my eyes to make the green pop. I love my eyes they are my favorite color green!

I leave my naturally straight hair down and I go put on my high rise shorts and my Pink™ crop top, grab a bagel and my keys and leave. But before I leave just to entertain myself.

"Hey Marco! since your such a jack ass, hope you like the bus!" and I run out the door and start my car and leave as he stays at the edge of the drive way flipping out.

I then listen to the radio as I an told directions by my phone. As I get there my song is on and I can't just get out of the car! So I sit there singing 'You know I'm all about that bass, bout that bass no trouble.' as I'm jamming out a girl pulls up next to me and she jamming to it to. I kill my car and grab my stuff and get out as she does.

"Hey! I'm Emily." the girl says so happy it creeps me out a bit so I laugh.

" Alyah" I said smiling back.

"So are you...", She spaces out looking somewhere in the distance, "New?" she finished like she never stopped talking.

"Yeah I am" I said confused as hell.

" I totally zoned off didn't I? shoot. I'm sorry" she said laughing "I have super sensitive hearing and really bad ADHD so I do that a lot! anyways. Would you mind if I showed you around and introduced you to some pretty cool people I know? You seem super cool and fun." she says, not really asking because she starts walking inside so I have no choice but to follow her. It turns out I have just about every class with Emily! Thank you music for finding me a person! Now I'm only gonna be a little less awkward. She shows me where Civics is for first hour as I go to my locker and says she will meet me there she has to talk to the office. I say okay and continue to my locker. I get to locker 367 and I hurry to open it and end up slamming it into the guy who has the locker next to me! Smooth Alyah! Super smooth. I throw my bag in and shut it and try and help this guy I just knocked out with my locker.

" Oh my god I am so sorry! Are you okay? I didn't even notice you walk next to me...." I was caught in my words as this gorgeous man stands up and just chuckles at me.

"Yeah I'm fine thanks and it wasn't you I definitely wasn't paying attention and walking into that one." he replied smiling a bleach white smile, making me smile back.

" Oh how rude of me, I'm Jackson."

"I'm Alyah." I said giving him my hand to shake. in which he takes and kisses the top. This kid was seriously HOT. Like he has a tight muscle shirt on that gives you peeks at the definition of his muscles. and had some baggy jeans with a chain hanging off of them. Not to mention this blonde hair that came just below his eye brows with a DC beenie on top, to his ice blue eyes and a black lip ring on the right side of his bottom lip. Which were in between thick and thin and believe me I'd defiantly test that to see which one they were. hehe.

I snap out of my thought when I hear him clear his throat. Oh my he just saw me checking him out like in debt. I was tomato red.

"Well I'm glad you like what you see," he laughed with a sly smirk and asked for my schedule.

"Oh and it looks like your stuck with me from lunch till final bell cutie, see ya at lunch." he said as he winked and walked off. I looked at the clock: 9:09. Shit! I run to civics and sit by Emily right as the bell rings.
