My alarm with that it's horrible sound woke me up the following school day.
Another week.
Another day.
Another possibility my life would get more broken.
Great.
I stood up from my California king sized bed and headed for bathroom. I showered, dressed, packed my hair in a neat ponytail, applied minimum makeup with concealer hiding my eyebags, carried my bag, phone, wallet, and other essential things for school.
20mins. I got ready for school in 20mins.
New record. Yes!!!
I went downstairs for breakfast and I met silence.
Means no one is at home.
Not the first time.
I ate my breakfast in a hurry and scrolled through my Instagram feed as I waited for Trish to come pick me up. Don't get me wrong, I do know how to drive and I do have a car but after the accident I caused two years ago, I had sworn to myself never go near a driver's seat again.
Ten minutes later, I heard Trish horn and I went to meet Trish outside.
"Heyyyyyy bitch!" Trish shouted as I was locking the door.
"Good morning to you too Trish" I greeted her as I neared her car.
"C'mon hurry up let's get to school already am running late."
"Girl its just 7:30am" I said as I entered her white jeep wrangler.
"Yeah and a 25 minutes drive to school." Trish said with a smile."Let's go!!!!" She shouted excitedly and I smile at her happiness.
"What is making Lockwood so happy and chirpy early Monday morning?" I asked still smiling.
"Well I'm going to see Caleb this morning...."
"No wonder."
"And my brother is coming back to school today". She added.
"Your brother?"
"Yeah, my brother Christian that I told you about."
"Oh. Your arrongant, egoistic brother." I said mimicking her.
"It is because you haven't met him, that is why you are like this you know."
"Yeah sure."
Minutes later we got to school and we rushed to class because it remained five minutes till school starts.
.....
As usual at lunch, Trish and I sat at our table and as we were eating, my eyes landed on a certain someone.
It is the guy from friday.
Oh my god.
Gray eyes
"Trish!" I said tapping her and my eyes was still on him and he was also holding my gaze."Trish! Trish!!" I said tapping her more forcefully. By that time, gray eyes was already making his way to our table.
"What?what? Why are you tapping me like that."
"Remember gray eyes I told you about on Saturday?"
"Yeah?"
"Well he's ...."
"Hey sis" I was interrupted by a deep voice.
Oh god that deep voice.
Wait...
Did he just?
Sis?
Oh my god.
"Hey brother." Trish said dryly.
"Brother???" I asked in shock.
"Yeah remember my self-egoistic, arrogant brother. Christian." Trish told me
Oh my god.
Trish is Christian's sister.
Oh my god.
The guy who makes butterflies rumble in my stomach when I hear his voice, is my bestfriend brother.
Oh my god.
"Hey princess" Christian said with a smirk on his face.
"Princess? You boy, don't you go calling my best friend a princess okay? She is a princess, but not your princess." Trish said smacking Christian's hand playfully while I was rooted to my seat with wide eyes and my jaw, probably on the floor.
The bell rang signalling the end of lunch period and I was still rooted to my seat because of the shock.
"Hey Ash, time for Calculus. Let's go." Trish said but I could not hear her because I was staring at Christian.
"Ash.Ash. Earth to Ashley." Trish said snapping her hands in front of my face.
"Yeah..." I said snapping out of my thoughts and looking around seeing students leaving the lunch room.
"I.said.let's.get to.calculus." She said more slowly.
"Yeah right, let's go." I said still surprised about all what happened. At this time gray eyes, sorry scratch that, Christian had disappeared.
