I woke up with start to hear someone knocking on my door."Yes..." I groaned out in my sleepy voice."Honey you have 15 minutes because your father is finished getting ready and is having breakfast right now"came mom's muffled voice behind the door. My eyes widened and I ripped away the comforter from my body and checked my phone to see that my alarm was accidentally turned off. "s**t" I muttered while jumping out of the bed and into the shower. I thoroughly scrubbed my body, brushed my teeth, dried my body and was out of the shower in less that 7 minutes. I took another two minutes dressing up and tying my wet hair in to a loose bun. Grabbing my sneakers and bag which I thankfully had packed last night, I was out my bedroom door and into the kitchen in seconds panting like I just ran a marathon.
My dad who was just finishing his morning coffee took one look at my state and chuckled lightly. "Raine dear what took you so long?" he asked quirking an eyebrow.I glared at him, huffed like a 2 year old and grabbed the glass of orange juice mom placed in front of me and finished it in one go. "Drink with patience young lady, no train is leaving you behind and eat your toast as well slowly!" she scolded.I took a huge bite of my toast despite mom's protests, kissed her on the cheek saying goodbye and ran outside where the car was parked in the garage and dad was already getting in.I hurried towards him but suddenly remembered something. I took my phone out to check my makeup and after clicking a perfect photo posing near my car, I posted it on Instagrim, Facechat and my other social media accounts. I could proudly say that having 30K followers and 10k on Instagrim alone made me an utter social bee and a public figure. After posting it I got into the car and buckled myself up. I opened my phone again and saw that my post already received 200 likes. I smiled to myself looking at it. I was about to turn off my phone when I saw a message from one of my unknown followers.
-*Hi*
I usually ignore messages from people I don't really know because I get them a lot given that my account is not private. But this guy I recognized was one of the very early people who followed me when I had like barely 500 followers on Instagrim. He was also one of the people who appreciated each and every post I made so there must be no harm in replying him I thought and typed a reply;
*Hey there...whats up!*
I looked at some other posts and then switched off my phone when dad started giving me side way glances. My parents don't appreciate kids who are engrossed into their phones and 'Gadgets' as they call it without any reason so I try to keep my phone usage to a minimum when they are around.
I was dropped off near the entrance gate and I started walking towards the main entrance of the building greeting every friends that I saw which was most of Gilbert High. Yeah I guess I was not one of those bitchy, plastic popular cheerleader type but as most people say 'a sweet empathetic and a beautiful girl' so that made me popular and maybe also the fact that I had a huge fan following made me automatically on top ranks in high school. I grinned spotting my all time best friend Katie pushing through a swarm of students to get to me with a huge smile plastered on her face.Once reaching, she enveloped me into a bone crushing hug;"Rayyyyyy OMG its been soo long girl, I thought you died or something" she sighed dramatically.I rolled my eyes and chuckled," It was just a two week spring break kay and we just talked like last night" I pointed out. She swatted my arm fake glaring at me. "Well its not the physical same duh!" she mused like it was the most sensible thing she ever said.I shook my head and chuckled again. ''Any way, Ready for first class?'' she asked excitedly and I groaned looking up at the ceiling . The only thing we were opposite in were looks and our attitude towards studies. While I had straight Raven black hair with chocolate brown eyes and fair skin, Katie had wavy light brown hair with hazel eyes and fair skin.Where I hated studying but still managed to stay in one of the top students in class, Katie always dedicated herself to studies working hard and always aiming for the top, staying there. Beauty and brains is a perfect description for her I thought looking back down to her."Yes Miss nerd, Im ready for that hell, lets go" I said and in return she grinned and dragged me to out first Calculus 1 class. It was one of the most boring lectures going on in history lesson when my phone vibrated differently indicating I received a message and when I opened, it was from the same guy;
*Did someone ever tell you how beautiful you are cupcake?...*
