Waking Up To Barking

I was asleep in my bed, music playing, pitch black out side, then barking, and lot of it. My dog was going insane for no good reason. So I got up, picked him up, checked every room for anything strange, then went to my grandparents studio and left him in there. I went back to my room and tried to get back asleep, but I couldn't.

So I just read. Woowho! I promise though, school days are so much more interesting, a lot more interesting then this at least. My class mates always wonder why I love school so much, well because it's a lot more interesting then counting flys on the ceiling. Well since I have nothing else to do, I'll tell you about some of my classmates.

Well there London Hart, one of my best friends. She has long wavy brown hair, and brown eyes. She's pretty tall, but not as tall as me. Her parents are divorced, her mom is friends with Oliver's dad, and Oliver's dad has a big studio that her mom lives in. Her dad lives on the opposite side of town and has a cute little dog named Pepper, because she's white with black spots that look like pepper has been sprinkled on her back. She pretty smart also, has straight As. But her biggest strength is her photography skill, she's great at it.

Now how about, hmm, Adam McCain, he is kind of my friend, I don't know what to call it, we talk every now and then, and he will stick up for me, so yeah he's my friend. He has dark brown almost black curly hair, not an afro but not long, and brown eyes. He's kind of the "God of the class" everyone listens to him. He's really smart, especially when it comes to math. For a while the class was split in half, the people who are good at fractions,, and the people who aren't, Adam and I(accompanied by Oliver, Albert, Jaydon, Erin, and Hannah) were in the good at fractions half, and it was fun working with him, he is one of the only people that get it. His parents are also divorced, I don't know anything about his dad, but I know his mom re-married and he has a lot of step-siblings. He is also pretty tall, he's the tallest in my class.

And I will also tell you about Jessica Fresco. She's the new girl in my class. She has brown shoulder length wavy hair, and an emo side bang, with brown eyes. She is weird, in a bad way, I don't trust her at all. Her parents are divorced, and her dad, her, and her little brother just moved here, her mom lives in Colorado with her older sister. She isn't that smart, or that tall, but I will say she's pretty, but not as pretty as London. She is sort of nice, but not to me, mostly because I'm the odd one out.

I finally did fall asleep. Then when I woke up at ten O'clock. I took care of my dog, then I took a quick shower. My grandma was cleaning the kitchen.

"Mama, can I go to the park?" I asked her.

"Sure, just keep your phone on you." She says

"Thanks." I say, I put my helmet on and get my bike, the parks only a quarter of a mile from my house, but I like to bring my bike anyway. I also grab my guitar, the guitar has a hard case, but I've sewn straps and hot glued them on. It works pretty good to.

Once I'm at the park, I go to the big oak tree. park my bike next to it, then go to the lowest branch which is only four feet up, I get my guitar out and leave the case open. I climb up on the lowest branch, then start playing. At first I just play random chords that sound good together, then I play some songs.

When I first got to the park no one else was there, but after an hour or so a bunch of boys I know get there, well I know their faces, but their names I don't know, they know my name though. They are friends of the twins Carlos and Gavin, who are also there. They don't see me at first, but after about ten minutes they notice me.

"Hey, Clover, do you take requests?" One of the boys asks, I think his name is Alex.

"If I know the song," I say
