"Skylar!" my teacher interrupted my thoughts.

I looked up from my textbook.

"Er, what?" I asked.

"Exercise 12, number 6, what's your answer?"

Oh, homework. I quickly opened up my notebook to see my answer.

"Franz Ferdinand" I responded.

"Good. Pay a little bit more attention to my lessons next time"

Yeah, whatever..

I was in History, pretty much my least favourite class, but I needed it for next year so...

I was sitting next to my friend, Brooke. We've been friends since elementary school, which is about 11 years ago now.

I remember when we were playing with some blocks and she asked me if we could be friends. I was like why not. So that's how we became friends. It's crazy how easy that stuff went back in the days. I wish everything still went that easy...

My thoughts were interrupted by the bell.

FREEDOM!

History was my last class, so I was finally FREEEEE !

Yay for me :)

"But there's seriously NO one you like? Not even a little bit?" Brooke asked me. We were on our way home from school.

"Nooooo! I swear!" I laughed.

Brooke was always very interested in boys and everyone's crushes and everything.

"How can you live like that?! I mean, there's gotta be someone!"

But nope, not for me.

My love life wasn't very interesting, not that I minded though.

I'm very single pringle.

I approached our separating part, where I needed to go right and she went left.

"I'll see ya tomorrow!" I said as I went the other way from her.

"Byeeee !" Brooke yelled.
Crazy mofo. But I love her though.

"I'm hoooommeee!" I shouted as I opened the door.

No response.

I went to the kitchen to see if anyone was there.

Nope.

Well, it's just me then...

My parents both had a very busy job and they were barely home.

I was used to it now, but I still didn't really like being all alone.

I saw a little note on the coffee table. I picked it up to read it.
Hey sweetheart, I'm sorry I'm late tonight. Can you please get me some groceries? This is what I need:
Milk, pasta, bananas, cereal (the ones your sister likes) and some yoghurt.
You can get something for yourself as well if you want. There's some money on the table somewhere near this note :) xx Mom

Great, groceries. I decided to drink some and have a snack before heading out the door again to get the groceries.

Hey if you're reading this that's awesome because then at least one person reads this :) I'm sorry this was a crappy and short chapter, I don't even like it, but I made it to kinda introduce Skylar a bit.
