"This is a crazy life." I say. "But it's my crazy life with you. Only you." I say with a bright smile, brighter than it has ever been to assure him what I love, who I love. Him.
"Ali!" My mother shouts as I attempt to roll out of my bed.
"Ali!" I still don't respond realizing what today is. My stomach drops. To the floor making me want to puke right there on the spot. 6th grade. Why did it have to come so soon?
"Allison Rose Cooper get up this instant!" She is beginning to shout louder. "I'm up!" I say back just as loud.
After I finally drag myself out of bed I get dressed. Once I am fully dressed I head over to the black mirror leaning against my wall. I look like crap, other girls at my school probably would have spent hours upon hours to look perfect for this "big day". When I on the other hand could really care less about the first day of middle school.
I finally decide I'll attempt to look sort-of decent by adding a very small amount of slightly tan powder on my face and then adding a light eyeshadow with a single brush of mascara on each set of eyelashes. I grab a brush and begin to brush my brown-ish blonde hair down and just pin my bangs back with a single bobby pin. I never really tried much with my appearance, I still don't.
Once my bag is packed I hear a slight honk from outside of my small but large house. My Mamaw, my mother's mom, is outside with her big, sleek, black, SUV looking thing parked straight in front of my house with the car still running and no one stepping outside of it. I quickly grab my bag and shuffle out the door to soon climb into her car. She greets me with a slight hello and a smile. "Hey" I say back.
I have to ride with my mamaw everyday because she works at the company for the school which is across the street from the middle school, my middle school, wow. I'm never going to get used to that am I? But anyway I have to go there because my oldest brother, Adrian, has to take our middle brother, Andy, to high school along with himself. My mother and father both have to work in the morning so they can't take me. Which leaves me here, in the quiet office of only a handful of people. I sorta like it. You know the quiet before school everyday? I could get used to this.
