Beep beep beep! I wake up, and jump out of bed smiling ear to ear. I quickly put an X on yesterday's square in my calendar, still smiling. Today is the day! It's not just any crazy day, it's THE DAY! THE FIELD TRIP! I live in the amazing state of New Jersey, and the school had enough money to get us to visit LONDON, ENGLAND! It's going to be a one week field trip. Although, it's not a normal field trip. We each get two partners, and each group may go around London, as long as they're not out of the city. Teachers believe we're trusted enough to do this. I know it sounds crazy, but our principal is like, the best principal in the whole world!
"Lesley! Breakfast!" Mom calls.
I sprint downstairs to meet my mom in the kitchen. I sit down on my chair and eat my cereal. Suddenly I receive a text.
From: Jay - Hey, Babe. Can you tell Mr. Alex that I can't make it to the field trip? Mom's having a new baby.
Well, Jay's wish comes true. He's always wanted a little brother or sister, and now it's coming. I decide to reply.
To: Jay - Aww. That stinks. I'll miss you. XOXO
"Who are you texting, sweety?" Mom asks.
I answer, "It was Jay. He can't make it to the field trip because his mom is having a new baby. I guess he needs to help her out because the baby could be kicking soon."
Because Jay is going to miss the field trip, I decide to take as many pictures as I can with a help of my BFF, Vine. After about 10 minutes, I finish eating my cereal and run up to my room the change. 20 minutes pass, and I'm all ready to go. Quickly, I check my room if there's anything I forgot to put in my luggage, but luckily, everything's in! I kiss my mom goodbye, promise her I'll call her everyday, and I head into the bus. As I find a seat, Vine waves her hands to let me know she saved a spot for me. I sprint to the seat and sit next to her.
"Sooooo? You excited?" Vine eagerly asks.
I reply sarcastically, "NO!"
"What?"
"I was being sarcastic, Vine!"
"I-I knew that,"
Vine and I laugh as the bus leaves the stop and drives to school. She and I have dreamed of this for years!
