“I’m dreaming, I must be,” I whispered. A bell rang and the scene in front of me faded. He faded too. My eyes fluttered open as i grumbled. I rolled over and slammed my hand on my desk searching for my phone. I sat up and turned off the cry of my alarm. Blinking, i fell over on my bed. “Come on, wake up. you’re going to be late for school again,” my mom called from the doorway, flipping the light on. I threw a pillow on my face and sat up after a moment of annoyance. The pillow fell to my lap where my baby blue comforter was resting on my lap. I reached up to rub my eyes. My hand proceeded to the back of my head and pulled the elastic from my hair. My fingers smoothed through the tangled red-brown waves. I stood up and stretched as i shuffled to the bathroom. I flipped on the light, shut the door, and did my morning business. I finished and turned on my straightener. As i walked into my room, i pulled a pair of sweat pants and a t-shirt out of my drawers. I got changed and journeyed into the restroom. I pulled a brush through my hair, and began the long, tedious process of straightening it. About a half hour later, i turned off the burning hot machine and went to put my shoes on. After i finished, i grabbed my school bag from the rocking chair in the corner of my room. “Bye mom, love you. Am i making dinner,” I called to her. “Bye sweetie. Um, no we’ll have leftovers. Love you too. Have a good day.” “Ok, see ya later,” I said and walked out the door. My school bus is usually late on Wednesdays, so i decided to stop by my apartment building’s laundry room to grab a Pepsi. I cracked it open and sauntered off to my bus stop. I was the first person there, so i took out my I-pod, sat down on the curb, and turned to my favorite song. At the end of the song, I opened my eyes and saw that a few people were walking up. Among the group was my best friend, since forth grade, Jessica Newel. Turning off my music, i hopped up and jogged to her side. “Hey, Jess.” “Steph,” She yelped, her nickname for me, throwing her arms around me in a giant bear hug. “how was your day yesterday? You never called me.” “I know, I know. But, I went to the park after school, and didn’t come home for about three hours. I had a lot on my mind, sorry,” I explained. Her expression changed from an irritated look to understanding once i said ‘park’ “Oh. I should have known. Thinking about Mi-” My eyes flew open cautioning her not to finish the statement. Finally, i nodded. Jessica is, hopefully, the only person that knows who i like. Beginning ninth grade was a huge difference in my life in both good and bad ways. Three words. Friends, boys, and school. I found out who my true friends are, and who i didn’t want to be seen with. A good. Unfortunately, i lost some close friends. A bad. Then there’s boys… Where do i even start. Of course half the freshman population is males, but now kids from other middle schools are there. New faces. New crushes. New drama. It’s good, bad, and ugly. Leading me to school. I realized that waiting until the last minute to complete my homework wouldn’t suffice any more. In middle school I could pull it off easily. I have also noticed that i need to study more for tests. I’m unsure how, but im passing all of my classes having a B- for my lowest grade. Jessica is in most of my classes which makes it hard to concentrate. It also doesn’t help that Mitch Duran, my crush, is in four of my classes. Usually, i end up staring at his dark brown almost black hair, as a result of having similar last names and sitting near each other. His hair being the main reason i like him. It’s almost feathery due to its length. Not short but it doesn’t cover his face. Some days during class, i want to reach out and feel it. Sadly, he came from a different school then I did, so it would be very weird if i were to do so because we don’t talk at all. Also, he is friends with people i gave up due to their inability to accept my friends. So, i sit back and wait for nothing to happen. Eventually, Jessica caught on that i liked him. Of course, when she asked me about it, I denied everything. I still don’t understand why I even try to lie to her. With our being friends for six tears, she can read me like an open book. Even when i don’t speak, she knows what i’m thinking about. Which is why after a while she slapped my shoulder. “Stop. I know what you’re thinking. You and i both know, when you think about him, you get all depressed and zone out during the day. Now lets go, the bus is here.” i understand she is just concerned for me because one day, weeks ago, I was zoning hard and got sent to the counselor. She called my mom and requested that i see a therapist. My mom told me that she would never waste money to send me to someone just so they can ask me what’s wrong, knowing i wouldn’t talk. My mom and i aren’t very close, but she knows that i don’t like talking about my problems. As it is, she has her own troubles expressing her feelings. It was hard enough for her to divorce my dad and her husband of 16 years. She ended up sending him and e-mail. After all the paperwork was filled out, he moved out and it was just the two of us. My mom got full custody of me so he always came to visit us. My family was never rich, and when he left, the money was tight. Every week or so, my dad would have to come over and buy us groceries. He helps us a lot, but, sometimes its easier without him there. I got a babysitting job to help out my mom with bills and gas money so she could get to work. Weekly, i would get around 15 to 30 dollars a day. I give half of it to my mom and save the rest for my future when it’s needed. Due to my moms working, i’m home alone a lot. Sometimes i’ll walk across the street and buy a cookie or something to snack on. Being a freshman, I don’t get a lot of homework. When i would have homework, it would get finished right after school. In other words… i have too much free time.
