My Life with O2L

Chapter 6

I wake up in my bed and look around. It's dark still. Dang. How early is it? I grab my phone. Five o'clock. Wow, I'm never up this early. Oh well.

I hop out of bed and shower. Yesterday, me and the guys swam for a while and then ordered take out.

I dress in a pair of sweats and a muscle shirt that says "Slay 'em". Then I put my hair back in a sloppy bun and head downstairs. I make a cup of coffee and go to the living room.

Today is my shopping day with Ricky. If I'm gonna survive the day, I need to get into the "sass". So, I grab the remote and cut on Keeping up with the Kardashians. Honestly, I hate this show. I don't even understand why Kim Kardashian is famous in the first place. But, I keep the show on until I hear Ricky yell, "OMG! THIS IS MY SHOW!"

He jumps over the couch and lands next to me. "You like it?" He asks.

"Nope." I say, popping the p.

He looks at me confused. "Then why are you watching it?"

"Cause," I say, walking into the kitchen. "Today is Ricky day, and since this show is your guilty pleasure I figured I'd try to watch it." He nods.

I place my cup in the sink and go back to my spot on the couch. "Speaking of, when are we leaving?"

"As soon as you're ready to."

"Well, I'm ready so let's go!" I say, jumping up.

Ricky looks at my outfit and shakes his head. "Why am I not surprised?" He mutters.

I laugh. "This is why you're taking me shopping, Ricky! You know, for new, better, more sensible clothes?"

He sighs. "Yeah, but good grief."

I laugh. "Well, let me go grab my purse and say bye to Jc real quick."

I run up to my room and grabbed my purse. Then I busted in Jc's room.My lazy dad is still asleep. Thinking of revenge for yesterday, I sit on him and start tickling.

His eyes dart open and he laughs. "Can't- breathe." He barely managed to get out. I stop tickling him, but I stay sitting in him.

"Good morning sunshine!" I say, a big smile plastered on my face.

"Morning," he says, somehow managing to sit up with me still on his lap. "What time is it?"

I look at the time on my phone. "Eight-thirty."

"Ugh," he groans. "How are you up so early?"

"I honestly have no idea," I say. "But me and Ricky are about to leave and go on our shopping spree. I just came to tell you bye."

"Well then tell me bye," he says, groggily rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.

I give him a quick hug and a peck on the cheek. "Bye Jc."

"Bye."

I get up and shut the door on my way out. Then I head downstairs and yell "Ricky! I'm ready!"

He gets off the couch and says, "Finally! You took forever!"

As we head out the door, I say, "Well I had to wake up Jc. The lazy bum was still asleep."

We laugh and get in the car. On the way we play 21 questions. I seriously think this is gonna be what I play with all the guys. It makes it so much easier to get to know them.

When we get to the mall, I gasp. "Wow. It's so big." I say, admiringly.

Ricky looks at me like I'm crazy. "Have you not been to the mall before?"
