I woke to the sound of my alarming going off I checked the time,12:00am, I sighed as I stretcher my limbs yawning. I grabbed my glasses from my night stand and started brushing my hair out and getting into my uniform. I checked my phone seeing it was now 2:00 and ran out the door running to work. I got there at 2:30 quickly unlocking the door and cleaning tables and mopping, I then started turning everything on.

Grabbing my backpack and purse of clothes and brush quickly running to the track outside of my school and start my run.

6:30 I finish my run sweating bullets and slowly walk into the changing rooms and gets ready for school, drying my sweat and putting in my contacts, then getting dressed.

After getting dressed I went to my locker aware of the dark circles under my eyes from the 4 hours of sleep I was able to get in last night. "If it isnt Elizabeth black"
I sighed and turned around to be faced with my ex bsf hailey macramore "its lizzie" "its lizzie" she mocked me "did I ask" "hailey what do you want from me" "I want you to stop being a disappointment and die already but I guess that isnt happening anytime soon" she said before pushing me then tripping me and walking away. I yawned as I gathered things, as I stood up somone caught my eye once we made eye contact I quickly shook it off and walked to class. I got into 4th period and sat in the front row ready to answer the questions I couldnt fail this class.

As the bell rang I made my way to detention as I walked in I saw the girl from this morning desperately staring at the clock as she tapped her foot, she obviously had to be somwhere, intrigued I sat next to her "hey" her head shot in my direction "i.. um.. I.. hi?" "Were you needing to be" "work" she sighed looked back at the clock "your 16 I think the will understand" "I may be 16, but if i dont get to work in 10 minutes I will.be fored meaning I wont be able to pay my Bill's, meaning I'll lose my house which come to a conclusion of me being homeless, god why am I even telling you this" "well lizzie tell me about your self" "what do you wanna know" "do you live alone" "yes" she gave me a short answer but I wanted the long one "why?" I know I sound nosy but I was intrested "um well, my dad died when I was nine, car crash, and on my 13th birthday my druggie of a mother moved to europe with her newest boyfriend, and that's it" she shrugged and looked me in the eye, that's when I noticed how her eyes bagged and the dark circles surrounding them. When the bell rang to leave detention I hadn't even noticed that i had left my hand on her leg so i took it off."um hey do you want a ride" "sure"

It was wierd he had never once noticed me before nor had I noticed him but when we made eye contact this morning it made me feel somthing that I've never had the chance to feel and I just cant figure out what it is or what it means. As were walking out to his car I get so caught up in my thoughts I didnt even realize he had asked me a question until he had touched my shoulder, "huh" I say as I quickly look towards him. I smile sheepishly as he laughs with such a heart warming smile,"were do you need to go" "oh um the gas station in the town over,if you dont have time I understand" "wait how do you get to work"(I dont know if she mentioned it to or not) "I run" "that's like 30 miles!?!" "Its good practice, I do track" he just nodded I looked forward and I could feel his eyes on me "what" "I don't know, god lizzie what is so diffrent about you" "maybe it's that I at usually work for everything I have and it wasnt just given to me from my rich daddy, btw I dont have daddy issues incase your into that, I have mommy issues" I joked,hoping to make the silence that was once surrounding us less awkward. I listened as he laughed and knew it worked but then I felt the engine turning off and realized we had stopped on the highway on the side of the road.

I looked at him in confusion when I finally realized how close he
