Beep Beep Beep!
I took the pillow out from under my head full of long brown hair and whacked my alarm clock. I did NOT want to go to school today. I stayed up all last night talking on the phone with this amazingly cute college guy. I'd say he was around.....22, maybe older, and I met him at a frat party I went too. Of course my friend Kaila snuck me in, and I lied to every guy that talked to me. I said I attended Florida State college too, but they just never noticed me before. Some guys of course said they would have noticed me there, but I just insisted they needed glasses.
Chris thought I was 21, only because that's what I told him. But what tall and sexy fifteen year old girl can't look like a college chick with a little bit of make-up? Certainly not me!
I rolled over on my bed again, planning to fall back asleep until my annoying mother turned on all three of my lights and took off my white down comforter from my body.
"How dare you mother! I was just going to sleep for five more minutes."
"My daughter doesn't need any more beauty rest, but needs to wake her tired butt up now! Maybe if you hadn't been on the phone for eight hours yesterday, while your father was trying to call, you wouldn't be so tired."
"Oh mother, I'm a kid, let me be, and let me sleep!" I kicked my leg against the bed frame, stubbing my toe. "Oh sh**!"
"And what's with all the cursing young lady? No man wants a girl with a garbage dump for a mouth!" I heard her finish putting my towels in my linen closet and finally leave. I would've gone back to sleep but I couldn't stop thinking about the pain in my foot, causing it to throb.
I stood up and stretched. I looked at my clock and noticed I was already ten minutes late for getting ready. I hopped in the shower and quickly got out.
After I had blown my perfect hair dry, I was in the midst of searching through my one hundred and one outfits when I realized I had nothing to wear.
"Mom! Can I borrow your new miniskirt?" I shrieked.
"What new miniskirt?"
"The one you said you thought would look great on me? You know, the one I wanted?"
"You mean the brown one with the purple blotches?"
"Yeah!"
"Ha! Absolutely not Amanda! As you can see, I am wearing it to work today." she twirled around and did a pose, showing off her modeling skills she learned in this class she took as a teenager.
"But I have nothing to wear!"
"You better check again woman! You have three thousand outfits, now go find one. I have to leave, now. I love you baby." she kissed my forhead and I groaned because I knew there was a red lipstick mark leftover. I hated when she did that! "But since I'm getting paid today, if you wear an outfit twice, I'll buy you a new one!" she laughed and exited my humungous room, leaving the scent of expensive perfume trailing behind her. I groaned and finally chose a black button up silk shirt, which I leave open except for a few of the middle buttons, showing off some of the shimery green halter top underneath. And finally, I chose a black skirt with black knee highs, and of course, black high heeled shoes. I put it all on and walked over to my vanity and started curling my hair with my already hot curling iron. I finished my hair and checked myself out in the mirror. I looked fantastic! I grabbed my purse and left the house for another day at school.
My best-friend Courtney and I met up at the front of the building as we did every other day of the week. We have only known each other for about a year, but somehow we clicked like I have never done so with anyone else before.
"Oh my goodness Mandy! This hott guy was checking you out in 5th period yesterday. He's new, or something. Maybe I just haven't seen him around, but anyways, he was scoping you out!" she shouted at the first site of me.
"Really? You gotta show him to me!" I walked to my locker and started unpacking my bookbag and gathering the books I needed for my first three classes. I ignored the usual "slut, whore, and stuck up snob" remarks from girls that passed me, and asked Courtney what he looked like.
"Well, he's got blonde hair to his ears, he has blue eyes that are really amazing, and.....and....and I can't really say much more. But I think his name is Nick. I heard some friend call it. Well, I'm not really sure, but it's either Nick or Dick. I really couldn't tell." We giggled, but then I almost choked on my breath.
"Did you say blonde hair, blue eyes....and his name is Nick?"
"Yeah! You got it memorized already! I'll see ya at lunch." she started walking away but I turned her to face me again.
"Nick? Nick Carter was checking me out? You must be mistaking!"
"No....why, how do u know him?"
"Please, let me tell you something about him, Courtney. He is anything but new to this school, and yeah, he may be a tad cute, but that boy hates my guts, and I have to say I hate his right back!"
"Oh okay, nevermind then. I'll see ya later!"
"Wait Courtney, the bell hasn't-" before the sentence escaped my lips, the bell rung loudly over our heads- "rung. But anyway this won't take long. We used to go to the same daycare center! And one time he tripped and fell outside by the sand, and he cut himself. And I accidentally kicked all this sand in his cut and all over his body! After that we never got along. You know what?"
"What? You better make this quick! I've been late so many times this year from reaplying my make-up. I don't think Mr. Andrews is gonna apreciate this."
"Thanks for telling me he was scoping me out, I'm never gonna let him live this down!" And with that last sentence, we headed in opposite directions to our homeroom classes.
