Suddenly my alarm on my iPhone went off. I groaned tiredly and reached over and tapped the snooze button. I sat up slowly and yawned. As I crawled out of my king size bed I grabbed my phone, then walked lazily to my dresser.
My room was huge. It was about the size of a big classroom, I even had a big balcony outside my huge window which was a door too. As you can tell already I live in a mansion. My walls are painted a nice sky blue with Boo the worlds cutest dog posters, a couple horse posters, and a bunch of other posters with celebrities on them. My dresser is just a normal dresser, I have a big walk in closet, and a desk for doing homework but I put a big mirror above it so I put all my makeup and hair things on it instead. I don't even do homework so in my head the desk is for doing my makeup at, but my parents think I do my homework so don't tell them I don't. My floor was cover with a soft white carpet, and I had a white couch by the big window on the wall across from my glass door.
I opened my sock drawer and put on one of my many pairs of white socks, then grabbed everything else from the other drawer. I walk into my closet and pulled my short sleeveless bright blue dress off one of the hangers. The top part of it was silver blue and the skirt part was bright blue. I quickly changed then went to my desk and brushed my light brown hair and put on my makeup. It was my usual red lipstick, black eye liner and mascara, and light blue eye shadow. I put my hair up in a high pony tail and pulled the bits of my side bang out. I quickly made my bed then ran downstairs, as usual my parents were long gone. They always had to leave for work two hours before I woke up so I never saw them much. Suddenly my phone started buzzing, I looked at it, Layla was calling.
"Hello." I said when I answered.
"Summer! Hi!" Layla exclaimed.
"Hi?" I said.
"Ok guess what!"
"What?"
"There's a family moving into the house up the road from me, and they have a girl our age!"
"How do you know she's our age?"
"I got excited when I saw them this morning and I ran over to introduce myself, I told her about you too, she said you sound like a great friend and that we will all become best friends."
"Oh, cool. what's her name?"
"Umm, I think she said it was Skylar. Ya that's it!"
"Awesome, we've always wanted a friend named Skylar."
"I know! This is great!"
"I can't wait to meet her." I smiled and glanced at the clock. "hey Layla, I'll see you at school I got to go bye."
"Ok bye." Layla said and I hung up.
I ran to the front door and put on my white high heels and went outside to wait for the bus, and as usual it got there almost right away. I stepped onto the first step and froze.
"Umm Mr.Drake." I said. "I forgot my purse inside can I quickly go get it?"
"Of course, just make it quick."
"Thank you." I said and walked as fast as I could back to my house and went inside to the living room and grabbed my purse off the couch. it was white with light blue threads dangling from the bottom and the top, it wasn't big but it wasn't small either, it was the perfect size for all my things to fit in it. I quickly walked back out to the bus and stuffed my phone in my purse as I got on it. I walked down the isle and sat in my usual seat, we don't have assigned seats but everyone usually sits in the same spot anyway. the bus drove forward and I sat quietly all the way to school.
⭐ ⭐ ️⭐️
When the bus came to a stop almost everyone stopped talking and piled off it into the parking lot. the kids in kindergarten to grade 6 had to wait another 10 minutes before the bus driver got to their school cause the high school and the elementary school were two different places. I walked off the bus and to the doors of the school. when I got inside Jake was there waiting for me as usual and he hugged me. I hugged him back then he kissed me.
"Hi Jake." I said.
"Hi Summer." he answered.
I laughed. He smiled at me.
"What's so funny?" He asked.
"I don't know." I said then laughed again.
Jake rolled his eyes and laughed too. We walked to my locker together where I saw Layla with a girl who looked about the same age as us with perfect wavy black hair that shined in the light, it looked so soft, her eyes were silver with a touch of blue, and she wore blue skinny jeans, a long sleeve shirt with black, brown and white squares that faded into each other and white stripes. She had left the last three buttons undone and died it so a little less than half her stomach was showing. She had a white pearl necklace on and her almost knee high black boots with two inch heels. My mouth dropped open when I saw her, she was so beautiful. I could tell Jake thought so too and a feeling of jealousy shot through me.
"Summer!" Layla called as me and Jake approached them. "This is Skylar."
"Hi!" I exclaimed.
"Hi." Skylar smiled. "I've Hurd so much about you Summer! I can't wait to be friends!"
"Me either!" I said, I got really excited, I now had a British friend named Skylar!
"Oooo, whose your friend?" She asked and traveled over to Jake.
I could tell by the way she said that she liked him. The way she smiled at him and fluttered her eyelashes also gave it away too. I was getting really jealous now, but I didn't let it show.
"This is my boyfriend, Jake." I said making sure to mention our relationship so she would back off a bit.
"Well aren't you lucky." She told me. "You've got quite a handsome boy there."
"Thanks." I said sounding a little harsh.
She was flirting with Jake without talking to him! That little- I'm not even gonna finish that sentence. I walked over to my locker and opened it. I had art first, my pencil case was in my purse so I didn't need anything from my locker. I keep almost everything in my purse by the way. I closed my locker and went back over with Jake.
"What do you have first Layla?" I asked.
"Art." She said. "What do you have?"
"Art!"
"Yay!"
"It's been a while since we had a class together."
"Ya"
"What do you have Jake?" I asked.
"Gym." He answered.
"Oh, to bad you don't have art with us." I smiled my "if-you-know-what-I-mean" smile.
"Summer, we got in trouble last time we tried kissing in class." Jake smiled at me.
"I know." I laughed.
Jake rolled his eyes and I pushed him playfully.
"Hay!" He exclaimed.
I laughed at him.
"They do this a lot." Layla said to Skylar.
Skylar giggled. "That's fine."
Ugh, I hated that she was so nice but at the same time I loved it cause I wanted a reason to not like her because of how she was looking at Jake all the time but I don't want a mean friend so her being nice is good and bad. Just then the bell rang.
"I'll see you after class baby." Jake said.
"Bye." I waved as he left.
Me, Layla and Skylar all looked at each other. We didn't know what to say to each other at all.
"So- umm, what do you have first?" I asked Skylar.
"Umm, math I think." She said.
"Oh ok," Layla nodded. "So we'll see you after class."
"Uhhhh? After class? Don't you mean at lunch or after school?" Skylar asked.
"No," I shook my head. "After each class we get a 10 minute break, then we go to class."
"It's been like that since 3rd grade when someone went around asking people to sign something to agree that they wanted to have the 10 minute breaks." Layla explained.
"Ya," I nodded as we started walking to class. "Almost the whole school signed it!"
"Wow." Skylar said.
"Ya, I would never be able to do what that person did." Layla confessed.
"No me either." I agreed.
We all talked and got to know each other as much as we could the rest of the way to our classes. When we got to the math class we said goodbye to Skylar and walked the rest of the way to the art room.
"So what do you think of Skylar?" Layla asked me smiling.
"I like her she's really nice," I explained. "but she seemed like she was trying to flirt with Jake."
"Ya, that wasn't good," Layla said. "but she also didn't know he was your boyfriend Summer."
"Ya true." I agreed. "but she knows now so hopefully she'll back off a bit."
"Ooooh, someone's jealous." Layla teased.
"I'm not jealous," I said trying not to smile. "I just don't want other girls to try to get Jake to ask them out."
"Ya your jealous." Layla said.
"What ever." I laughed.
We both laughed as we walked into the classroom and sat in our seats.
