Ebony's Touch

Why Does School Start at 7:30 f**king am

It's been a week and I'm already tired of school I mean I guess I don't hate it but I'm sick of waking up at 6 am. I blow out a puff of air and sigh.Ugh why would they start school at such an early time. I seriously can't even see the sun when I look out the window everyday and today was no different. I get out of bed with a yawn just standing looking out my window trying to come to a full awakeness if that's even a word. But I'm so tired I'm slightly disoriented. I don't know why I'm not used to it at this point.

Knowing I'm going to be tired up until about the class before lunch I make my way to my closet and slowly pick out a Nike hoodie and some slightly distressed American eagle skinny jeans that I got for Christmas a year ago. I grab some boots lined with fur and pop them on.

The weather is cold and icy today, it's winter and in the middle of January but thankfully the school clears the commute from dorms to school classes. So I'm not too worried about slipping on ice and making a baboon out of myself. I went from a sunny beginning of school and a mild fall in Cali to this cold flipping weather.

I make my way to the bathroom and I look in the mirror, grab my mascara and apply a layer to my lashes. Then I grab my cotton candy chapstick and smear it all over my lips. I bring the chapstick to my nose and take a whiff my shoulder rising for an added effect with my inhale, mmm sugary sweetness enters my senses. I seriously love this stuff it's my favorite and then a rude knock at the door interrupts my minute with my chapstick, but I make my way to the door.

I open my door expecting it to be River but instead I was greeted by two warm smiling girls. Sydni hands me a coffee which I happily accept and Kaylyn smiles at me watching me take a sip.

" thanks I needed that. You guys can sit on my bed and the chair while I grab my bag." I say and walk back in my room

" no problem girl considering how early we wake up for our magical education if you will-(she winked) I figured we could use a boost of much needed warm sugary energy. Nothing like a good ol cup of calories to rev your unawakened engine am I right!" Sydni said and we all laughed and agreed. I grabbed my bag and we head out.

" guys guess which soccer player has started talking to me!!" Kay said with excitement she even added a little eeek! At the end

" I don't know I hardly no everyone here or else I'd definitely guess but by that goofy ass smile I'd assume he's hot." I say glances at her as we walk out of the dorm buildings.

"HOLY SHIT IS IT DYLAN!!" Syd shrieked
Considering the way Kay blushed I'd say she hit the nail on its head. Kay nodded affirming Sydnis guess  . I wish I could say I knew who Dylan was but I don't but I will soon.

" spill like right now I mean I thought I had seen him look at you in PE but I wasn't positive omg you guys are gonna be so cuttttteeee.!" Sydni keeps squealing adding a little more of a pep in her step.

" you guys need to point him out to me so I can see the guy in question for myself ." I laugh I mean can you blame me I don't want to miss out on all the excitement.

" don't worry I will. But anyhow I was just on my phone when he mysteriously added me on Snapchat then I added him back immediately. I mean I always thought he was cute but I'd be damned to admit that first.So back to the story I see him typing and then I see a message appear buttttt I wait a couple of minutes before answering because I don't want to seem desperate. I then open it and he said 'hi' then I was like 'hey' and then BAM! We are talking for hours and he asked me if I wanted to get some lunch in one of the on campus restaurants." She sighs wistfully with a love sick grin on her face.

Dang I never knew there was restaurants on campus this really is an awesome school.

"Did you say yes you lucky chick!" Sydni shakes Kay with a look that says you better not tell you said no. And Kay smiles shaking her head and says " of course I said yes I'm not dumb enough to say no to him who knows when a guy like him will look at me ever again" she finishes the last part quietly looking down at her black nike shoes.

I bump my shoulder onto hers getting her attention. " don't put yourself down you are beautiful I mean look at you so turn that frown upside down and be happy you scored a hot soccer player!" She looks up at me and nods her head with a slight smile.

Normally I wouldn't feed into pretty people cutting themselves down but this time I could see she was genuinely a little insecure. Like this one time at my school when I was in ninth grade a girl that was a probably a size two said she needed to go in a diet knowing damn well she was the shit in my school. I felt like rolling my eyes and saying oh yea? Get some weight watchers then. 

Considering I'm a size eight I'm not fat or skinny but I have some extra weight in my thighs,hips, and boobs. But that girl was just fishing for complements knowing there were girls that felt judged by their size which is so wrong in my book.

" your right thanks  it's just I get in my head sometimes." Me and Sydni nod acknowledging her.

" you better tell us everything after the date with mr soccer captain Dylan!" She sing songs walking backwards into her class and Kay nods her head with a smile on her face.

"There is no way I wouldn't." She says back

" see you guys later you babes, you." Sydni says before walking turning and walking straight into her class.

Something stuck out that Sydni said and I need to ask kay about it. " hey you didn't tell me Dylan was a soccer CAPTAIN!" I say with my eyebrows wiggling back and forth.

She giggles and shrugs waving by as she goes into her next class I laugh and head to mine as well. Witching 101 here I come.

RIVER POV***********

I woke up a little late this morning but can I really fault myself I was having the most amazing dream about Ebony. I get dressed quickly sporting some Nike sweats and a matching hoodie. I figure Eb is wearing a hoodie today considering ash hates Monday's and even if she doesn't admit it she loves when we match and I live when my baby is happy.

I open the door and head out but quickly unlock the door again and figure I should surprise Ebony with one of her favorite cereal bars for breakfast.

By the time I get to her dorm she is gone. Where the hell is she. She always walks with me to school she knows I like to make my appearance with her by my side silently warning the other boys to stay the fuck away from what's mine even though she is oblivious.

My phone buzzes from a text and I take my phone out of my pocket and I see I have a message form Chase.

It reads 'hey man how's it going i bet your missing me the most 😍' that sarcastic shit makes me laugh and slightly distracts me but not enough

' what ever dumbass I'd beat the shit out of ya if I was there yk just for old time sake.' I joke I joke

I put my phone back in my pocket knowing he will say something equally as dumb but I'm getting a bit angry at the fact Ebony didn't wait for me. I better see her ass in school.
