Before Homeroom Bell

Six thirty my alarm goes off, with luck mom is still sleeping and Kevin is watching some cartoon. Coming out. Looking to mom’s door seeing it still shut and I hear the the theme song to Kevin’s favorite show “Thunderbirds Go!” With a clear path to the bathroom so I move like the speed of light getting in and showered before Mom gets up and Kevin realizes that I was up.

Back in my room i get dressed after checking my schedule, no gym or drama so I can wear my tight jeans and a form fitting t-shirt. Going out to eat in my bathrobe, scarfing down two slices of toast and a glass of orange juice. At two minutes to eight o’clock I’m out the door hoping that Callum remember that I told him I leave at eight.

Starting my walk to the elevator, I hear from behind “Damn nice legs!” turning to find Callum staring at me. For some reason I was flattered by his attention, even more when he caught up to me and slid his right hand in my left. “So are you going my way?”

“You know I am, What is your first class today?”

Math with Mr. Mantinque!

“Ah yes Mickey Mantinque!” going on to explain how Mr. Mantinque’s ears stick out like Mickey Mouse’s ears. Turning the subject to my little aide to help him “Do you still have the map i made for you?”

In my binder, on my locker door and one folded in my wallet!” As the elevator open we enter, a minute later we exit the building and start towards school. Getting closer Callum asks if we could stop so he could get a cup of coffee. Telling him that only place was Hasty Market, only to have him tell me that he knows and in his opinion they brew the best he‘s tasted ever!

Well to each their own. As he goes in, coming back with a large coffee and a bag of donuts bites, offering me a bite, I politely refuse. Getting to school, ten minutes before the homeroom bell, at Callum’s locker, where in front of Rachael, Callum kisses me for the first time on the lips.

It was magic, he leans in, lifts my chin and lowers his lips to mine. As our lips touch I feel sparks in my mind and electricity on my lips then I hear Rachael speak!

“Oh look Glover must have paid a guy to kiss her!” All her clique laughing with her

Callum hollers out “Jealous because she can afford to pay and doesn’t need to use a discount coupon!” All the laughter stops as Rachael and her clique sticks her nose up and storms off. Turning to me “What the hell is her problem?”

“She the most popular girl in school and I’m the gum on the sole of her designer footwear!”

“Really because to me she a bitch!”
