SUZE'S POV
"Suzie!" Jake (sleepy) banged on my door "are you done with your beauty sleep yet? Since, in case you've forgotten today's the first day of school and we're already going to be late."
I pulled the quilt over my head and yelled back "I'm up already!" I mean brothers banging on your door and screaming on top of their lungs? Yeah, not exactly my idea of fun.
"Jake… you don't have to worry since Jesse is picking me up. So now can you just shut it and go!" I said a little too rudely.
He muttered a "yeah whatever" and just went.
By the way, Jesse is my best friend, he's always been. He's smart, cool and totally my partner in crime. I don't get along with the girls that well, I mean, I'm not one of those girls. If you know what I mean.
So today's the first day of school and it's going to be so much fun.(NOT!). The vacation was good. I mean I went back to New York City to meet Gina and it had been so much fun.
My mom married Andy Ackerman way back when I was lot younger, around 9 years, and then Gina was my best friend back when me and my mom live there in NYC. Gina's this ultra hot chick, if her never being without a date every weekend is any indication.
We hadn't met for nearly 7 years, and meeting and being with her after all these years it all came back to me, the fun being around girlfriends! We did loads of shopping and stuff. You know the usual. And I bought LOADS of stuff.
When I told her what kind of outfits I wore at school – loose t-shirts or sweatshirts with a pair of baggy pants or jeans – she freaked out saying that I needed a complete makeover. And she did give me one. So, it turned out to be a success (if I say so myself). If two hot guys from New York City asking me out was any indication (and as an answer to that statement, I did go out with them. What? It WAS the first time some hot guy or any guy was asking me out. Anyway it was only for one date)
It was further proven when my mom drooped her jaws and stood gaping at me at the airport going all "aw Susie, you look so beautiful!"
Even Dopey was like "where have you hidden Susannah Simon?" with a surprised look.
So back to my first day of school, Oh shucks! I've got to get ready! I can't wait to see everyone's reaction about my makeover when I get to school! So I took a quick shower and opened my wardrobe (after a month with Gina my dressing style has like totally changed. My whole wardrobe is full of brand new clothes!).
I decided on a grey top with short sleeves with a black mini and black slacks with grey boots. It gave me the New York look.
So I headed downstairs and found Jesse chatting away with my mom, they got along like anything.
Did I tell you, Jesse had been to Hawaii on vacation? He's got tanned, and he's changed somewhat, (for the better I mean) we high-five'd and Jesse went all "hey dude! Was sup? NYC been nice too you?" (Wait a minute did Jesse just call me dude? Duh! he always called me that. It's just that I noticed it for the first time. Whatever!)
So I replied "Hey! Of course! After all it IS my old turf . So, how was your vacation in Hawaii?" all the while stuffing my breakfast into my mouth and wiggling my brows suggestively.
He said "Aw I missed you too, Susannah. And my vacation was awesome!" and he winked at me.
I just lauged. My mom looked at us and shook her head muttering something.
It was good to talk to him after such a long time. You must know this, me and Jesse, we hang out with the popular crowd in school. Not that I like it or something, but Jesse being the football captain AND the hottest guy in school (according to most of girls in school) and me being his best friend, eventually lands us in the popular crowd.
This crowd also includes Parker the school's coolest jock, actually I like him best after Jesse. He's WAY too funny,and makes me laugh till my sides ache. Then there's Adam, he play's for the football team, and many other guys from the team (okay…so not including the girlfriends of some of these guys who are there on and off. I'm officially the only girl in this group. So what?) I love football, sometimes I even play with the guys, but that's outside school, since the team here in the Mission is all boys.
