I woke up to my alarm singing "So What" by Pink. I look over and it's 6:00. Uhh.. I better get up or else i'll never get up. I get up and go to my bathroom and take a shower. After that I straighten my hair. I have hair that's a little past my shoulders and layered and blonde. I then go to my closet and pick out an A&F Knitted long sleeve shirt. It's hot pink with a v-neck. Then I get out an A&F faded mini skirt. I go back to my bathroom and put on my makeup. I looke at myself in my full length mirror. I think this outfit will make a impact. I pick up my phone and call Brooke.
"Hello."
"Hey Brookie what are you wearing?"
"A Green Hollister shirt with some faded jeans." She said proudly "What about you?"
"My hot pink knitted A&F shirt with the faded A&F mini."
"Girl you are gunna look hot."
"As are you. Brookie Jake and I are going to be at your houe in ten..k."
"Ok I will be ready."
I hand up with her and grap my Hurley backpack and my D&B purse.
"Jake!" I yelled
"What!" He yelled running out of his room with his toothbrush in his mouth
My brother was wearing an A&F polo with some kaki shorts.
"Ahhh... Jake."
"What?"
"You can't wear A&F the same day I wear A&F." I said whining
"Well, you know what deal with it."
"Uhh.. fine but I told Brooke we'd pick her up in 10."
"Ok do you have everything?" He asked
"Yup." I said heading down the stairs
I was sitting on the little bench in the hallway waiting on Jake to get a move on. I swear he takes longer than me.
"Bout time." I say as he makes his way down the stairs
"Just go get in the car."
"Bye mom and dad." I yell
"Bye sweatie." Mom yells back from the kitchen
I slip on my flip-flops then i'm out the door. I get out my iphone and text Brooke to tell her that we are on our way. Brooke only lives about 5 minutes from us. I get in the car and turn the radio station to 96.1.
"Oh no you don't." Jake says
"What you never have a prob with me changing the station." I complain
"Ya well in the morning I get the radio and in the afternoon you get the radio comprendae."
"Ya ya whatever. I say looking out the window
We pick up Brooke then head to the high school. We pull in the parking lot and get out the car.
"Are you ready for this Brooke." I say
"I don't know. I've got butterflies."
"Guess just come on." Jake said heading to the enterence
We walk though the doors and there are many people here already. Me and brooke go to our lockers. Luckily our last names both start with an H. Hers is Hentley and mine is Henley. I know it's weird they are almost the same.
"I like totally heart your backpack Brooke." I said sarcastically
"I know me too my best friend has the same one."
We both went to the mall like a couple days before school and bought the same packback and some clothes together. After we got done with our lockers we had about 10 mins until the bell rang for school to start.
"Ewwwiie!" I whisper yell to Brooke
"What."
"My brother and his girlfriend kissing that's what."
"Ewwiiie is right!" She whisper yells too
We walk by them and go sit on a bench by our other friends. We sit and talk to them for a while then the bell rings and we head to our first class.
"Brooke I wonder if Mr. Lightman is nice."
"Hmm.. I guess we'll find out." She said walking threw the door
The bells rings for class to start.
"Everyone take a seat, but don't get to comfortable because I will be giving you assigned seats her in a few." He said
"Oh great." I heard someone say
"Ok everyone I am Mr. Lightman and I teach Biology."
"Will we have to disect frogs in this class?" A girl named Melissa asked
"Yes." He said
"I protest!." She yelled
"I'm just kidding you young lady."
"That's not a very good joke." She whispers to her friend
"Ok in this row will be Ben, Jack, Bill, and Lacy.
He went on until he go to the third row.
"In this row: Blake, Zoey, Brooke, Tanner, and Zane.
"Omg I sit next to Blake." I whisper to Brooke
"I thought you were over him?" She asked
"I am, but it's still cool."
"Ya. Ya."
The next couple classes were boring until lunch came around. Brooke and I got to the lunch room and scoped it out.
"Oh great Jakes' in this lunch period."
"I wonder if Brock is too."
"God I hope not."
I look and see if Brock is over there sitting next to my brother. Surley enough there he is.
"Yep there he is."
"Just don't make eye contact and you'll be fine." Brooke says
"Ya but we have to walk by their table to get to the lunch line."
"Well, again don't looke at them."
We walk by them. Then I hear...
"This seat is saved for you babe."
I look over and Brock is patting the seat next to him. I just keep walking and don't make eye contact like Brooke said. After Brooke and I get our food we head over to a table with our friends. Our table so happens to be right next to Blakes' talbe. Yes, I do like him I just tell Brookie that I don't because she doesn't really like his friends.
"Uhh.. Brock is on like my last nerve!" I say with anger
"Sorry hun." Mandy, a junior, says
"I just wish he'd find someone else to like other than me
"Maybe we can set him up." Brooke suggests
"That wouldn't be such a bad idea." I say with a sligh grin
After lunch Brooke and I have one more class together. School finally ends after 7th period. I hed to my locker and guess who is leaning up against it. Yep, Brock.
"Get off my locker!."
"Why do you hate me so much Zoey?" He asked resonably
"I don't HATE you, it's just that your my brothers friend and it would be a littel akward to date you." I say opening my locker
"Does that mean you do like me?"
"No, I didn't say that."
"Well, it was implied." He said
"Uhh.. whatever Brock."
Shortly after Brooke comes to her locker. We head out to the car and wait for Jake. He finally comes out after like 10 minutes.
"What were you doing in there for so long?" I ask
"I was talking to Brock."
"Jesus why?"
"He told me that you implied that you liked him."
"OMG that boy just never gives up."
"Zoey why don't you give him a chance he really likes you." He said starting up the car
"If you think about it Zo, Brock is pretty hot."
"I know that him and his brown hair and his tanness and his muscles." I said naming a list
"So.. you'll consider him."
"I'll think about it Jake, just uhh don't rush the process."
"Hello."
"Hey Brookie what are you wearing?"
"A Green Hollister shirt with some faded jeans." She said proudly "What about you?"
"My hot pink knitted A&F shirt with the faded A&F mini."
"Girl you are gunna look hot."
