1:32am
All I hear is my alarm going off. I'm too tired to get up. Why should I? I've worked hard all week, I deserve one good nights sleep at least!
I put my pillow over my ears to block out the sound of the alarm but I can still hear it.
All I hear is the alarm.
The alarm...
The alarm...?
Wait...
The gang leader is calling!

Is shot up, picked up my phone and answered it.  "Alright I'm up. What's wrong now?" I groaned, annoyed and tired.
"We need you on campus." The leader said.
"But campus is 3 hours away! I can't! You know I can't!"
"Well that's why your going on a 'school trip'."
"If I skip school once more I'll get kicked out."
"So? You hate school."
"My mom thinks I have a perfect attendance so if I get kicked out for skipping my mom will get REALLY suspicious and I'll get into a ton of shit."
"Wellllll, You know how you're such a great hacker?"
"Yeah" I admit with a smug grin on my face.
"Why don't you just hack into the school system so that it says you're attendance is high. You hack into the system to make you're grades higher so why not do it for your attendance?"
"I can't my mom took my laptop away."
"Ah. Right." He paused for a moment searching for answers.
"Ok I'll get someone on it now; pack your bags and get ready to be picked up tomorrow at 7.am."
"Are you sure they'll get my attendance up?"
"I promise."
"Are you one hundred percent sure?"
"I know no one is as great as you but I'm sure. Now rest well Ally. See you tomorrow."
He knows how to win me over.
"Good. Will you actually let me sleep now?"
"Yes, yes. I will, don't worry."
"Alright thanks, Cya," I hung up the phone and jumped straight back into bed
Guess I better pack. Ugh. Ah fuck it, I'll do it later.
