My Romeo

I lay in my new bed and glance over at the clock. It reads 11:07pm. When will Nicole be back? I hate this! Hate that my best friend is't here for me when I need her the most! I hate how Andy had to spoil everything by kissing me tonight! But did he? I did like the kiss, it was soft, and felt just right. Of just fuck my life!
Not even two minutes later, Nicole enters the room

"Thank god your home." I say hugging her tightly.

"What's all this about?" she asks, releasing from our hug.

"He kissed me."

"Who kissed you? Do I know him? How cute is he?"

"Andy, the guy that paid for me at the diner."

"God he's sexy. I'd like to get me some of that."

"Yes he's hot but that's not the point Nicole."

"Then, what's the point Scar?"

"He's a twenty-five year old man with a wife, I'm a seventeen year old girl, and did I mention that he's my new teacher?"

"All those things don't really matter, Scar. I think it's about time you read the book."

"I am not gonna read the book." The book is something Nicole read for an English assignment two years ago. It's a book on how do have a great life, as if I or anyone else needs guidance on how to live.

"Please read the book, if not for me then for you. You're gonna have to face Andy sooner or later and maybe this can help guide you on how to put your words." Goddammit she's right! Why does she have to be so smart?

"Okay, go get it." I tell her and she goes into her drawer, retrieving it. 'Life Guidance' is the name of the book, let's see if it can help me. "How was your night with Ricky by the way?"

"Let's just say, I'm certain he's gonna ace that quiz." she says winking.
Soon, Nicole falls asleep, but I stay up to read the first chapter of the book.

*Fear Conquering

The first step of living is facing your fears. We all know how difficult it is to do such a thing, but once you do it's worth it. Whenever I face my fear, I usually reward myself, so that's what you should do. Go out and face just one of your fears. Whether it is talking to others, rollercosters, heights, swimming, presenting in public, or whatever else there is, just do it. Go talk to the guy across the hall, spend a day at an amusement park, jump in a lake, rock out on that stage, just conquer your fears. I promise you that by doing this first step, your life will become way easier.* I read and fall asleep.

The book is right, it's time to not be nervous and actually say all of what I want to say. I sit up in bed and look at the clock. It now reads 6:49am, time to get a shower. I get up from my bed and walk into the bathroom, quiet enough not to wake Nicole. I take a short, quick shower and put my hair into a four stranded side braid. I put on some eyeliner and mascara, and leave the bathroom. I walk back into our room with a towel wrapped around my body. Nicole is up and gets into the bathroom as soon as she sees I'm done. I take my phone and put on 'Kashmir' by Led Zeppelin. I hum along, seeing as I know no one wants to hear me sing. Nicole has never heard me sing, only my parents have, and they told me I was complete shit. So I guess I'll have to go by that review. I hate preforming or presenting things in front of others the stress just kills me, and the teachers at my school can see that. I wonder what Andy's gonna have me do in his class. I'm way too shy to sing in front of people, so what will I do in his class?

I put on a cyan long sleeved shirt, black loose jeans, my grey beanie, and black laced boots. My phone begins to ring, I look at the ID and it's my parents. I press the red button, forcing it to voicemail. Nicole comes out of the bathroom with her hair down, no make up, a bright pink tank top, tight black skirt, and brown knee high boots. God she's so pretty. Why couldn't you make me look as pretty as her?

"You ready to go?" she asks and I nod. "We'll pick up something to eat on the way, okay?" I send her another nod and we walk out of the house. We drive to McDonald's and pick up two chocolate chip muffins and two coffees. We finally get to school and I realize it's time to face the music, better to get it done and over with at the beginning of the day, right? At least that's what I thought.
