A/N: Hey guys! Just a note here. This story, the narrator is not me. It is the girl I dreamed of and made up in my dream. Yeah, she doesn't really exist. Bye !
I was having a dream. It was really pleasant, I think, because I dreamed only fragments filled with blue flowers and enchanting smells. Laughter and music as well. I was harshly brought into the awake world by the sound of the alarm. The one on my ancient cell phone with keys on it.
I jolted in my bed and jumped out, rushing to the other side of my room to reach the blasted thing. I pressed a button, breathing a sigh of relief. I stumbled back into my warm bed, pulling the covers up to my nose as I held my hand on my fast-beating heart.
" Curse you, Anna. Do you really need that?" I thought. Ever morning, I had a heart attack. Ever evening, I set one up for me. What was the time again? Right. 6:00 AM.
I crawled out to the bathroom and washed my face with warm water. Soon, I was fully dressed in my black outfit because I felt cool today. I had a swing in my step a little bit and I wore my badass face and my badass makeup.
" Anna! You're awake! " My father happily called out from the kitchen. My both parents were preparing breakfast. Or, rather, my mother was preparing it while my father ate it.
I smirked, feeling evil.
" Wow, really? That is one new fact. Mornin', dad" I replied with sarcasm and a little humor.
My father chuckled and shook his head at my words and my appearance, while my mother turned to greet me with a smile.
" Hey, Anne. Sit down, if there is anything left of the bread." She said and sent a pointed look to my father, who put his hands up in defense. Sighing quietly, I sat down and eyed the breakfast. I grabbed an apple and bit into it, enjoying the acidic taste and the pleasant smell. I decided that I won't have any butter this morning and proceeded to eat my apple with toast.
" So, what is for classes today?" Asked my mom.
" Mathematics, Physical, Chemistry, Biology, and Music." I recited automatically. She nodded.
" Mark, can you take her to the school?"
" Sure, Linda. You good with that, Annie?"My father asked me.
I shook my head. " No. I will walk today." I bit my lip and took a sip of water from my glass. The parents engaged in their conversation again and I fell in my thoughts until it was time to go. I slowly walked up the stairs and came back with my heavy backpack.
I gave a brief hug to both of them before leaving.

It was foggy and I hated it as I walked down the street. In these times I wished I had a phone so I could play some music.
The hum of an engine had me looking up from the sidewalk and a sleek black Audi softly rolled past me. I smiled, observing its beauty.
" Smooth. "
My love for vehicles was undying, I knew that. And so did everyone I managed to trick into listening to me brag about cars at 1 AM. No wonder my friends are away now, but I am indifferent.
The long school building was in front of me already and I picked up the pace. I lazily waved to some kids entering the yard and hurried inside. It was warm and I relaxed in the corridor. Checking the wall clock, I realized that I was not late.
My first class was Math, in which I excelled. Bailey tried to copy, but I did not let her. She turned her back on me and I knew she won't speak to me for the next three days. Okay.
