7:00 AM

"Wake up Maxi, we're going to be late" my best friend Khole said as she draws the curtains.

It was our first day of high school as a junior. It was nothing special except junior year really counts when it comes to our transcript. Khole, Karma, and I hope big hopes when it comes to college. Most of the students at our school are just hoping on a scholarship for sports, but we hope to get into our dream schools by working hard.

I slowly got up out of bed and walked to my bathroom and did my morning routine, I did my hair and got dress. I put on a simple makeup look and just under 15 minutes I was already done.

"Let's go, Maxi we're going to be late, this is the last year we get to see that hottie, Cole"

Cole is a senior and if I dare say the hottest guy my eyes have laid on.  He has a nice chiseled face and body, slim and well built, and this perfect smile.

One problem though, Cole doesn't have the best personality, he's kind of a jerk, but I mean with a face like that, he can run me over with a car and reverse, my life could be hanging on by a thread and I would pay for car damages.

Anyway, I headed to the car which Karma has been waiting so patiently for her sister and me to come out. We made our way to the school which was across town.

7:45 AM

We made it to school just on time, in fact, we were a bit early. Karma parked the car and we walked into campus to sit in our usual spot under a tree.

We were playing with our phones until we heard loud boys cheering and making a scene. It was the football boys, they were cheering and shouting as if they didn't see each other over the summer. Even though I know for a fact they did, due to football practice in the summer.

The girls here in Stanley high aren't crazy for the football boys, in fact, most of the girls found the boys to be annoying, and immature, which for one agree on.  Now that doesn't mean we don't find these boys to be attractive, they are.

These boys really know how to please the girl's eyes. They dress well and smell the best. They care about how they look, after all, they are the face of our school.

We kept looking at them as if we had nothing better to do. Justin the star athlete that was really well known and an old friend of mine waved at me and shouted "Lana" only he called me that. His friends Remy, Julian, Jade looked at me with an eyebrow raised.

I was shocked as well since it's been years, Justin hasn't made an effort to say hi to me. Justin and I used to flirt nonchalantly every time we saw each other. When I would go to his practice he would shout my name and everyone would look at me, and the number of glares I got from girls, that assume they're better than me.

Me and him never really actually dated but I had a one-sided crush on him, till my friend decided I was fake and dropped me out of her life. He sided with her not wanting to have problems with more people and we stopped talking. Justin currently has a girlfriend who is very pretty she is a year older than him. I should stop I sound like an all-time stalker.

I waved back at Justin in response to his shouting to me. The rest of the boys waved at me while Remy just stared. Ew, creepy!

8:00 AM

I looked at my schedule and it seems that I have PE first period, great at least I don't have to move a muscle till next week. Here at Stanley high, we don't do work for a week due to the fact we have to review the school guidelines every year. It's a pain in the ass but has its benefits.

I line up where my teacher tells me where I have to stand for roll. I don't have my girls for this class but at least I have one of my good friends Manuel. We sit and talk for the rest of the period until the bell rings.

9:04 AM

Manuel and I walk to class together which we found out earlier we had together. Math class actually Math honors. Somehow I made it to an advanced class yippie hurray for me!

12:07 PM

After hours of boring classes I finally make it to 5th period, AG Earth science, just one period away from my one and only elective color guard.

This class is going to be a very interesting class both Justin and Remy are in this class, this won't be good for my education.

I sat with my color guard girls Gracie and sindy, right behind Remy, Justin, and Juan. We read the guidelines and ended up finishing up early, I sat there, having a nice chat with Gracie talking about what parades we might do over the first semester.

"We're going to Pismo rig-" my sentence was cut off short by an unfamiliar voice.

"Hey Maxilana" which I found out the owner of the voice was Remy.

"Hey?" I raised a brow

I was a bit confused considering the fact that Remy hasn't made an attempt to talk to me since we were in middle school. Even then we didn't talk much, I was all about work, well Remy just wanted to make fun of me for listening to the music I listen to.

I found Remy to be a very annoying guy. I couldn't learn anything with him around.

"We're friends huh, huh Maxilana were friends!"

I slowly shook my head no, but he insisted that we were. The whole class period I was left confused and shocked about what just happened. I find it very uncomfortable when people I don't know, force me into relationships.
