Teenage Love or Is It

    "Get up!! Time for school.Come on guys up and at em!!". Mom is shouting throughout the house. She looks exhausted but I guess the coffee kicked in already. Cause boy she is fast walking through this house. While my mom goes through the house yelling, I drag myself out of bed and go to my closet and try to pick out clothes for the day. Once I am dressed I go downstairs to the kitchen to grab a granola bar for my breakfast. Just as I am about to take a bite, one of the twins grabs my legs for dear life. She almost took me out. But she is looking up at me with a smile on her face and then asks me "Do you really have to go to school now. I want to go to school too." I looked at her and pull her up to my eye level and very nicely let her know that she is still to little and maybe in another year or so she will go. But that did little to help the situation. She still started crying like there was no tomorrow. 

    Once everyone was ready for school, we headed out to the bus stop to await the bus' arrival. As usual she was right on time 7:15 every morning. As we got on the bus I noticed the twins wailing out the front door for us to come back. I sat in my usual seat all the way in the back of the bus and put my earphones in to listen to music until I got to school. I was mentally preparing myself for a long day or so I told myself. i knew I had about 20 mins if I was lucky and my day would officially begin. As the bus rolled up to the junior high school, I saw my savior or better yet my knight who might actually save me but did he really even notice me. He was wearing all black and he was so hot standing up against the wall. 

    When I stepped off the bus, he didn't even move. It was like he was stuck in that one spot. But I did notice out the corner of my eye that he did look over my way. But he I could of just been seeing things or I at least I hoped not. I really wanted him to see me, the real me but how could he I was a nobody. I felt like a nobody even though I had friends and family that loved me. I didn't feel it in my bones or in my heart. For now i would just have to dream in secret.

    I got to school early today. I just needed to relieve some stress. So I let me little brothers catch the bus and left out the house super early. I still haven't spoke to my mom since last night. I just can't believe what she did. She lied to us but I wanted today to go better than yesterday. Today I was actually going to try to talk to her. Hopefully the words will come out this time. But when she got off the bus, I didn't even budge. She looked my way but all I could do was just move my eyes in her direction. She looked so beautiful with her hair down her back and the clothes she wore made her look even better. I just wanted to make her mine but I am sure she doesn't even know I am alive. Maybe I will try at break and maybe I won't make a fool of myself. That would be horrible. 

    So as the day progressed, I couldn't wait for it to be break. But when I arrived at the area for break I didn't she her anywhere. Maybe she wasn't going to come out today or what if she already left school. I wondered what had happend but it was time to go back in already and she was still nowhere to be found. Well hopefully she will be at lunch. I need to talk to her and at least be her friend if anything. I need to get to know her.She needs me. Or at least that is what I hope. When the bell rang for lunch I darted to the dining room. I scanned the room and there in the corner by herself she was sitting at a table with a tray. But she wasn't eating she was just picking at it with her fork. She looked like she had been crying. 

    Her eyes were read and puffy. I just wanted to comfort her. So I took a deep breath and made my way over to her. When I reached the table she looked up and her eyes landed on mine. I was stunned for a moment she was upset but why. I said the first thing that came to my mind " Who do you want me to kill?". She looked at me and started to giggle. I tilted my head to the side and gave a smirk. It worked I didn't choke this time. So I motioned to her if I could sit with her and she nodded her head. I sat down and then it happend. I asked the stupidest question I could. "Do you wanna be friends? Or can we just get to know each other like friends?"
