I fumbled with the house keys as i tried to open the door since mom was in the kitchen making dinner and decided to give me a key to let myself in and i guess she trusted me since i was in 10th grade. I either had a choice to ride the bus or walk home but the kids on the bus hated me and talked shit about me so i decided to walk home. My day was bad enough already. When i finally got in, i smelled mashed potatoes, rice and some meat.
"Hi how was your day" mom asked me.
"Eh. We dissected a frog. Right after lunch too. And i have a new science partner." I said. "The usual" i sighed. "I have to go do some homework before i come down to dinner." I said as i climbed up the stairs to my room. I passed my brothers room along the way where he was playing video games. I wish i was 9 not 16. When i got to my room i closed and locked the door and fell on my bed. "Ugh." I groaned. I still had to call matt. IF i called matt. Ehar am i saying. I had to. I couldnt afford another F. I would flunk the class considering i never did my work because Alex sat next to me.
I glanced over at the blurry numbers on my wrist that was matts number. I grabbed my iphone and dialed the number. He picked up on the third ring.
"Hello." He greeted coldly. "Hey" i said. I didnt really feel comfortable talking to him much less going to his house alone. He seemed dangerous. Not bad boy dangerous just really ... Bipolar like he could hurt me if he wanted to and be nice the next minute. He seemed to have this strong scent that i was attracted to. Something that made me drawn to him, something that I couldnt resist.
"We need to do the project. I cant afford another F."
"Okay. Come to my house. 4569 willowbrook dr. Let yourself in." He hung up.
I set my jaw and hung up. "Bye to you too!" I rolled my eyes. Did he just tell me to walk in? I skipped over to the bathroom closed the door and turned on the music on my phone. The tune to "My everything" By ariana grande blasted off the speakers as i slipped into the shower and let the hot water massage my back. I finished off my shower quickly and tied a towel around my body and walked to my closet to chose something to wear.
"What do i wear.?" I was thinking too much. Why was i over thinking on what to wear? Its not like it mattered.
I chose a tie dye shirt paired with light wash shorts and my blue vans. I blow dried my hair and pulled it into a bun.
" Mom im going over to a friends to do homework." I said as i rushed down the stairs. She opened her mouth to protest but i cut her off.
"Its a partner project." I explained." Gotta go ill be back at.." I glanced over at my watch. " 7 or 8 i promise."
"Fine" she sighed. "Be back in time for dinner." I grabbed my penny board off the side of the door and stepped out
"Will do bye love you!" I closed the door.
