"THIS IS ALL TO MY ENEMIES
THAT SEE ME GETTIN' GUAP RIGHT NOW
SEE ME GETTIN' GUAP RIGHT NOW
SEE ME GETTIN' GUAP RIGHT NOW
THIS IS ALL TO MY HATIN' HOES
THAT-..."

The sound was loud. Too loud. I loved music and I loved that song, but dang did I want to shut it up right now. I opened my eyes and grabbed my phone. And then I saw the hour.
Class was starting in five minutes.

Yes, I do put an alarm clock every ten minutes to be sure to wake up.




"...whaaaat happened...???" Olivia asked as she saw me drag myself to my locker, my hair in a mess, yawning.
"Overselpt" I mumbled.
"Why ?" April asked, in a clear voice.
"Shhh don't speak to loud" I whinned, my eyes almost closed.
April and Olivia both looked at eachother with a weird face.
"Do you got a hangover ?" Olivia raised her eyebrows.
"No..."
"So ?"
"I overslept because I was tired, because I couldn't fall asleep"
"Why ?" April repeated.
"I don't know alright !!" I exclaimed, a bit annoyed by all these questions.
They both raised their eyebrows, surprised.
"Sorry" I groaned. "I'll tell you during lunch..."



"I...was just walking because I couldn't sleep once you left, and it took longer than I thought" I told them.
"Why ?" Olivia asked, eating broccolis.
"Ew" April said while looking at her.
"What ?" she asked.
April shrugged. "Vegetables ?"
"Hey I am a healthy person !" Olivia chewed on beans.
April and I made a digusted face, then April shook her head.
"Hey girls !!" a happy voice called us.
We all turned to see Eric.
"Hey" we replied, smiling.
"So how's it going Maddie since last night ?" he winked, but not in a flirting way. It was an accomplice wink. Friendly.
He sat next to me as April and Olivia looked at me, eyes wide opened.
"That's not what you think !! Yesterday I was walking at night, and I saw Eric, with somebody else..." I trailed off, thinking about the word 'girlfriend'.
"Yes, my cousin's plane had 6 hours late so she arrived at the airport at 2AM. That's why we were walking in the street this late."
Ooooh. His cousin. And that explained the suitcase.
"And you ? Why were you on the streets ?" he asked me.
He put an arm around my shoulders.
"Um, well I was..."
I was interrupted by a cough. Not that I'm complaining.
We all looked up to see Trevor.
"Hey" I said, sweetly, smiling at him.
I felt like last night really brought us close. I felt like he wasn't trying to flirt anymore with me by holding my hand ; just being nice to get me warmer.
I felt April's and Olivia's eyes on me, surprised that I wasn't greeting him with a moody 'what do you want ?'. I ignored them and focused on Trevor.
"'sup" he answered with the head nod.
He turned to Eric.
"Excuse me, you're in my spot." he spat.
"What ?" Eric asked.
"Ex-cuse meeee, you are in my spot" Trevor articulated, louder.
April and Olivia sniggered. Not me.
"But, I was...sitting here first..."
"And ?" Trevor raised an eyebrow.
Eric looked down, got up and left his sit to Trevor.
"Well, see ya Maddie" Eric smiled awkwardly to me.
"Eric I..." I started, feeling bad for him, but he was already walking away.
I sighed as Trevor put his arm around me, like Eric did before.
"What was that ?" I asked him, raising an eyebrow.
"What was what ?" he asked, looking innocent.
"What you said to Eric. Why ? That wasn't nice."
"Well I was supposed to be on this sit next to you with my arm around you but he was sitting on it so-"
"Supposed ? What do you mean 'supposed' ? He was there first !"
"...so ?"
I got annoyed. I rolled my eyes, closing them to contain my anger.
"You know what..."
I grabbed my bag.
"...I'm not in the mood."
I got up and left, only to hear Trevor yelling my name. I ignored it and continued to walk.

Later, in P.E, we were doing basketball. We were a lot so today it was the boys's team to play. Us, girls, were sitting there with our usual outfits, supposing to watch them but actually talking. Well, April Olivia and I. Because most of girls do look at them but not in the way to learn how to play basketball...but in the way to check out the guys.
I got here early so I sat, then soon Olivia and April came beside me.
"Hey..." Olivia said sweetly. "What happened earlier ? Why did you react like this ?" she asked me softly, a hand on my leg.
I sighed and put a hand on my forehead. "Nothing."
"Come on we're your friends, we know when you're lying." April encouraged me.
I swallowed then spoke up :
"I was annoyed that Trevor was this mean to Eric."
"This mean ? He's always like this, why are you annoyed now ?" Olivia asked.
"Because I know he can be nicer !"
"Him ? That guy ?" April pointed at Trevor who was warming up on the field just in front of us, with some other popular guys, waiting for the game to begin.
"Yes."
"How ? When did he was nice ?"
"I...I saw him last night."
"I thought you saw Eric"
"I did. Both of them."
I explained to them what happened last night, from Eric to Trevor's mom yelling at him, Trevor and I seeing eachother and why I got home so late, overslept and was now tired.

The game started.
"Oh...and what happened after ?" April asked, her attention on me.
