The next day I woke up, hearing my little sister singing again. I jumped out of bed, deciding what to wear.

"Hmm...what should I wear? This top looks nice. And so do these jeans."

I quickly dressed up and hurried down the stairs. I ate a baloney sandwich. Which reminded me of Mr. Belony.

"Haha..." I laughed.

All of a sudden, I heard my phone ring. It was Kaitlyn!

"Hey Kay! What u doing?" I yelled through the phone over my sister singing again.

"JULIE! U DIDNT COME TO DETENTION YESTERDAY! WHERE WERE YOU?" Kaitlyn screeched.

"OH MY GOSH I TOTALLY FORGOT! IM SCARED WHAT IS MR BELONY GOING TO DO TO ME!? IM DEAD."

"JUST COME QUICKLY TO THE BUS WE NEED TO TALK!" Kaitlyn said.

"OK!!!" I hung up the phone, still thinking about getting 2 detentions now, or even worse. Maybe even get sent to the dean!!!"

I grabbed my phone and keys and ran outside to the bus. As usual, I was going to be late again. Probably. Just as the bus was about to leave, I yelled "STOP!" It hit the breaks really hard, I could tell since the smoke was come towards me. I quickly entered the bus, with everyone looking at me. I was all smoked up, with my hair all frizzy. I saw Kaitlyn waving at me.

"Julie!" She yelled. "Your in deep trouble! Mr Belony said he wants to speak with you."

"I know Kaitlyn...u don't need to repeat that twice. I've had enough of school for these 2 days."

Just as she was about to reply, the bus came toward a big stop, everyone shoving and pushing towards me trying to exit. As usual, Kaitlyn and I were last. We ran to school since we knew we were going to be late again.

"Hey look who's back.its those 2 nobody's."

"Uh-oh." I whispered to Kaitlyn.

Kaitlyn just stood there frozen just looking at the guy as if I didn't say anything to her, ignoring me. HOW RUDE...

"I didn't get to finish what I was going to do to you yesterday." He walked up to us again slowly...about to take a hit, when someone yelled

"HEY. LEAVE THEM ALONE."

Everyone turned away from their lockers and stared at the person.

"Stop bothering them. You have no right to act like this."

I turned around looking at a girl with short blonde hair, and a LOT taller than me.

"Oh yea? What are u gonna do about it?! Huh?"

"Just watch..." The girl squinted at the guy seeking revenge.

"Ahh!!!" The boy ran away, scared, and hopefully never to bother us again. Remember I said HOPEFULLY. Not definitely.

"I'm Emily." The girl lifted her hand and greeted us.

"I'm Julie. Thanks for helping us. We were really thinking we would get punched today."

"It's no problem. I help a lot of people. Trust me, I've gotten bullied A LOT when I was in middle school. You seem like nice people. You should try standing up to punks like those." Emily replied.

"Yea, I wish. But I'm really scared. Anyways, I gotta get to class. Don't wanna get late again. What is your schedule for first period?" I asked Emily.

"Science." She replied.

"Great! I'll see you there!"

I went to class with Kaitlyn and on the way I met Emily.

We arrived in science class, and I forgot about me missing detention.

"Miss Andrews. May I speak with you."

"Uhhhh ok..." I stuttered.

I went up to Mr Belony's desk nervously.

"Julie. It appears that u weren't in detention yesterday. Luckily, I'll let you off the hook. But only this time. I'm a very strict teacher. I don't do this to many kids, so keep an eye on your schedule."

"Yes Mr Belony. Thank you so much. I won't miss anything anymore! Trust me!"

Wow...I didn't even have to make up an excuse. Mr. Belony isn't such a bad teacher after all. I sat down and made new friends.

"Hi I'm Cayley." Cayley is a VERY tall girl, with long brown hair.

"I'm Shirley." Shirley is a tall girl with black hair. She LOVES carrots and adores bunnies.

"I'm Sophia." Sophia is a girl with black curly hair.

"HI IM JOLLY!!!" Jolly is a tall girl with black hair and is very jolly at times.

School was becoming actually very fun. During lunch, I sat with all the girls that I became friends with. We traded some of our lunch. I had apples, grapes, carrots, ham, brownies and Doritos. I traded my carrots with Shirley for a ham and cheese sandwich. I traded my apples with Cayley. And in return, she gave me lays chips. I traded my brownies with Sophia and she gave me gold fish. I gave Jolly my ham and she gave me cookies. Last, Emily gave me her cheese sticks, and I gave her my grapes. Although I didn't trade with Kaitlyn since she didn't want to. Just then a boy came up with envelopes and started handing them out to all the girls.

"Hey Im Derek. I'm inviting you girls to my party. Hope you can be there on Friday! We're going to Caratos Pizza, and then we can hang out at my house."

"Sounds fun." We all replied.

Wow. I never expected a boy to invite me to his birthday party. After lunch, I went home with Shirley, Jolly, Emily, Kaitlyn, Sophia, and Cayley.

"I'll see you guys tomorrow! I yelled as we all went separate ways to our house. I walked up the steps and opened my door. This time, my little sister wasn't singing. She was getting potty-trained. Even worse...can you believe that she's 5 and she's still getting potty trained? we'll at least it was much quieter.

"Hey mom, hey dad, hey Susie (my sister)"

"Hello Julie." They all replied.

I went upstairs to my room and started doing homework. Thinking about Derek's party, I RSVPed to his party saying that I'll able to come. Besides, today was Thursday, so I wanted it get this out if the way before I forgot. I started doing my homework, which took me about an hour. I texted Kaitlyn for another hour, updated my Instagram status, then I heard my mom call me for dinner.

"HONEY ITS DINNER TIME."

I ran downstairs cause boy I was hungry.

"OHH CHINESE FOOD. My favorite! Yum!"

I sat down and started to eat my chicken and rice. My family talked about my day at school and I told them about the party invitation, my new friends, and the fact that Mr. Belony didn't send me to detention again. I ate quickly then watched tv. My favorite show was on. Wipeout. It was about 10 o'clock when I went to sleep. Today was a good day, not so bad as I thought it would be.
