-School Boy Humor, "Camera Shy "

Dear past me,

Go ahead and kill yourself now. Don't worry, tell God I gave you permission.

Love,

Your future self

I groaned as the pounding on my door continued. I threw a pillow at the door, shouting, "Go away! Miley Cyrus isn't here!" I shouldn't have said that, I really shouldn't have said that. At least, I didn't say that to Pal too. I didn't need two rants going on at the same time, one being about Miley Cyrus and the other about Adam Lambert. Speaking of rants, here comes my maid's rant.

"She is amazing though! No matter how many times she is called a whore, no matter how many friends I lose over her, no matter-"

"How many times you get fired from a job because you harassed one of her haters?" I poked my head out of the door, cutting her off. It's better to stop in the beginning because once she gets started, there is no way she is going to start. Well, unless she runs out of oxygen or dies from fangirl overload.

"Now, Shay, don't be like that," Keiko whined. I winced as she banged her spoon against the pot she was holding. Keiko is the devil in the morning, especially with the pot and spoon. I named them Jerry and Colin, for lack of better evil names.

"Will you stop that?" I snapped. "I liked it better when you called me ! Back then, you were nice in the morning. Now I get the devil with a piece of toast."

She ignored me and danced around my room, throwing a random pair of skinny jeans and a plaid button down shirt at me. She then tossed a piece of toast towards my direction, which I caught in my mouth and ate quickly.

"Let's get going kiddo! You have to make your best impression at Ouran, even if it is filled with a bunch of brats." She fluttered out of the room, ruffling my hair as she went. She then stuck her head back in the doorway. "By the way, I know Ouran has uniforms, but no way am I letting my charge wear that dress! It's a monster, a hideous yellow beast. Trust me on this." And then with that said, she disappeared down the hall.

I gazed in the mirror hanging up on the wall, examining myself and pulling weird facial expressions. Gotta make sure that I wasn't an alien imposter. Dark blue hair? Check! Electric blue eyes? Nose piercing? Multiple earrings? Triple check! Okay, I'm still me.

"Shay, c'mon! You're going to be late!" Shit! How long had I been standing in front of the mirror.

I rushed through my morning routine, slipping into the clothes Keiko had given me. I grabbed my messenger bag and my black converse as I ran out of my bedroom. I jumped onto the rail of the staircase and slid my way down. I got off the rail and continued on my adventure towards the front door, while unsuccessfully trying to put on my shoes. I gave up eventually and went flying towards the limo. My driver saw me coming and opened the door just in time for me to fling myself into the backseat.

"DRIVE, REGGIE, DRIVE!" I screamed at my driver, struggling with my shoes. Don't judge me for not being able to be normal and put on my shoes normally! I actually should be thanking God that I got my schedule early, otherwise this would have been a horrible experience. The limo pulled into the parking lot as soon as I was tying my last shoestring. I wasted no time in getting out of the vehicle and rushing off to room 3A, barely managing a farewell to Reggie as I went. I met the teacher along the way and he ushered me inside to the front of the room. I turned to the students who I would consider my family for the rest of the year and bowed.

"Hello everyone! My name is Shayla Shire, but you can call me Shay. I hope we all become great friends." Whispers went around the room before some girl answered my introduction.

"What American trash."

That's it everyone! I hope you have enjoyed the first chapter and I hope to see you in the next chapter.

P.S: I will be posting a schedule on my profile soon as I post this up for days I can and probably will update. I have a story with a friend that I'm doing and I still need to post that up. Though that probably won't be uploaded until this is done. If you want to see the first three chapters of that story, it is called Wish Them Luck by NekoEva13. By the way, it is a Fullmetal Alchemist story. So head down towards the review, favorite, and follow buttons and what not if you liked it and I shall be waiting to reply to all of you lovely people.
