The next morning I rolled out of bed. Like, literally rolled. I hit the ground with a loud thud and groaned. Slowly I sat up and rubbed the sleep out of my eyes. It was too early to be awake. I trudged into the bathroom to get on with my day.

Twenty minutes later I was walking into my kitchen to eat a quick breakfast before school. I walked to the fruit bowl and picked up a pear. Pears were actually my favorite fruits. How could you not love pears? They were perfection with every bite. I was just finishing off my amazing pear when my mom came skipping into the kitchen.

She was always so perky, I didn't know how she did it. I didn't really take after my mom so much. Instead I got my dad's more reserved personality. I was still equally close with both of my parents though. I always think how lucky I am for having them as my parents.

"Hey mom." I said to her.

She opened her mouth to say something but faltered when she saw the eaten pear in my hand.

She sighed, "You know, one of these days I'm going to make you a real breakfast."

"Mom you don't even cook." I said with a laugh.

She pursed her lips. "Fine, one of these days I'm going to buy you a real breakfast."

I laughed as our conversation was interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Okay mom, we'll see. Bye!" I called out. I grabbed my backpack sitting by the counter and walked out of the kitchen.

"Hey," I said to Cole as I opened the door.

"Hey." He said with a grin. I closed the door behind me and we both walked to his car.

We both got in and Cole started up the engine.

"So how're you doing today?" He asked me.

"Pretty good." I looked at him with a smile before turning back toward the window. "Andrew and I talked yesterday. We're cool now."

He glanced at him for a brief second. "Really?"

I nodded. "Yeah he apologized for being such a jerk and I forgave him."

"Oh. That's good."

"Are you okay?" I asked him. He didn't sound too comfortable.

"Yeah, I'm fine. It's just..... Nothing. I'm good." He said stiffly.

My eyebrows furrowed in confusion. I wanted to question him but he didn't seem like he wanted to talk about it, so I kept quiet. It was only another minute or two and we pulled into the school's parking lot. I opened my door and got out.

Cole and I walked into the school before we bid each other good-bye and I went to my locker.

"Hey, Natalia" A voice called out.

I turned to see Robyn and Zander. "Hey guys." I said.

"So how's it on this fine morning, chica?" Zander asked me.

"Okay, I guess." I said pulling my text book for first period out of my locker.

"What's wrong? You sound sad."

I shook my head. "It's nothing, I'm fine." Just then an arm slug itself around my shoulder and I looked up into two deep grey eyes.

"Hey Tally" Andrew said, smiling down at me.
