A Hopeful Ending

The Man Returns

"WAKE UP!"
"Whaa?"
It was 7:00 in the morning and my mom was trying to wake me up. School starts in 10 minutes.

"Crap" I muttered as I threw off my blanket and ran to my closet. I through on a tight black t-shirt, jean shorts and black hightops. I grabbed my backpack, swung it over my shoulder and ran downstairs.

I ran so fast I tripped and tumbled down the spiral staircase, three stories to be exact.

I got up grabbed a handful of fruit-loops and ran outside. I bolted to my pink convertible so fast I tripped and flipped inside the car.

Worst. Morning. Ever.

I made it to school a half hour late because, of course, road work was being done so I had to take a different route.

When I got to school I was sweaty and gross, my hair was greasy because I didn't have time to take a shower and I smelled because I didn't put on deodorant.

I ran into the bathroom and I put my hair in a tight bun, got a paper towel and wiped off all the sweat and I got the emergency deodorant I kept in my backpack.

I never wore a bun to school before and I guess I was rocking it cause today two guys asked me out, not including Marcus, he asks me out everyday.

Today Luke Smith asked me out, I said no because in lunch one time in 1st grade he threw his sandwich at my face. He may be drop dead beautiful and it may have happened 10 years ago, but no one, and I mean no one throws anything at my face.

The other one was Dan Harrison, he is definitely the hottest guy in school, no girl ever says no to him, so I thought I would keep the record going. For once I actually said yes.

Not because his hotness took me by the foot and dragged me into the darkness, but because I wanted to see how it would turn out. I would go on dates with him and kiss him and then eventually break his heart.

It sounds mean, it is actually. But I call it a science experiment.

Hypothesis- Dan will get taught a "lesson" when I break up with him.

It's not as bad when you put it that way.

At lunch Dan told me to sit with him and his friends. So I did. The whole time he had his arm around my waist and was talking about how he always had a crush on me but was to scared to ask me out. That's funny because in 6th grade he asked out our 30 year old teacher, and he was scared to ask out me.

At the end of the day I kissed Dan (not because I wanted to) and drove home. I saw the man that was watching me at the food store yesterday standing two houses away, he was still watching me.
