Life is Hard

Hikari's POV

Gill, he's standing straight with his man diary in his right hand, and his locker combination in his left. Why don't he just write in his man diary? I giggled to myself. I looked so retarded like the way I am. I couldn't even dress right today. My head was aching, my stomach wasn't full, and my hair was in knots.

Chase. He's my best friend, but I have a crush on him, too. He's the greatest, soon to be, chef I know. I just can't choose. He's always with my enemy, Maya whitch urks me. I know everything about Chase. He works at the Brass Bar, he and I are great friends, and I know he lives by himself.

Life is way to hard.

Gill looked up from staring at the ground.

"Oh, hey Kari!" He said waving. I waved back.

"What's with this hair?" Kathy said behind me and played with my darkish blonde and brown hair.

"I couldn't fix it today. The thinking of being in high school for the first time with Dk. And Ange and Kasey are senoirs.I just couldn't do anything about this race of rats." I told her.

"I got my tools, girl!" Kathy said and took out her hairbrush, conditioner, blow dryer, and practicly everything else out of the locker next to me. She dragged me in the girls bathroom. Every girl I know was there. Renee, Maya,Luna, Candace, even my sis Dk was there. Fixing their hair.

"Okay, over here." Kathy said waving to a mirror. I wallked over there.

"Okay, do you want your hair in a bun or let it down so the boys can dig their fake love in it?"

"Uhh, the second one?" I said confused. In about two minutes she was done. I looked in the mirror and I looked hot!

"Here, how about you wear these." Renee tossed a blue sundress with a unique green design, a pair of lime green flip-flops, and a green purse. All green today, I geuss. I walked out of the girl's bathroom. Chase walked by.

"Hey Kari!" He waved.I smiled. I looked at my class scedule. First period- Homeroom. Miss Shelly's class. I walked over there, hoping no one would see me. I just didn't because I was blushing way to much. Room 134, I walked in. Chase was waving over to a seat between him and Gill. I nodded and slowly skipped down the row of desks.

"Hey guys. You saved me a seat!" I said. I sat down.

"Class, we will start-" Miss Shelly got interrupted.

"Sorry we are late!" Bo said, dragging Luke who was whispering,"No no no no no!"

"Come on, seriously Luke?" Dakota asked. She giggled. Luke is just like Kasey.I shook my head and I had a grin on my face.

~Later that day~

"Hey, can we like, have a hangout over at your house?" Kathy asked, trying to keep up with me on the path to my house.

"I don't know, your gonna have to have to ask Ange. You know how she is. 'No beer, got it?' or 'Clean your room.' sometimes,'KASEY!' But we don't drink beer, or our room is always clean. And Kasey gets yelled at 24/7." I explained to her. "Don't you want time with Kasey? I mean, you've liked him for about, 8 years now."

"Yeah, I know, but I want him to talk to me first." We arrived to my house. Lilly came out of the doggie door to greet us.

"Hey girl." I petted Lilly. "Let's go inside." Kathy followed me in. Gill and Chase was there. They were talking to Ange and Kasey. I saw Ange nod. I dropped my leather backpack in my room and came out.

"Hey guys. What are you guys doing here?" I asked. I always ask questions.

"We were talking to your sister about a sleepover. She said it was fine." Chase said. Gill agreed.

Next day- Gill's POV

Hikari, she's beautiful. With her wavy dark blonde and brown hair. And her eyes, mixture of green and blue. Her smile is just like my mothers. What she does, I would enjoy doing with her. How she loves anything in her path . Chase likes her. We have talks in the hallway about her. I wouldn't call her liking him, but I would call Chase liking her.

Hikari never gives up. She didn't give up on her brother and sisters relationships, or give up on her parents.

"Hey Gill. I gotta ask you something." I broke my daydream to facing Chase.

"What?" I asked.

"Do you think I should ask Kari out?" He mumbled. I just stood there, blank.

"Uhh, I-"

"I know it's sudden, but I really like her. Do ya think?" I walked away, not answering that question. I gotta find Kari before he does. The bell rung. I ran as fast I can, not because I hate to be late, but because Kari is there. I ran over to her. Chase wasn't there. I went over there to ask her. She was with all the girls.

"Kari, can I talk to you in private?" I grabbed her in the corner.

"Yeah, what is it?" she asked me.

"Uhh..." I scratched the back of my head. "Would you like to go to the Firefly Fest with me?" She looked shocked, then smiled.

"Sure." She blushed beet red. I blushed tomatoe red. I walked away, always looking back at her.

Chase was walking in the classroom.

"Kari! Come here!" He walked over to the corner with her. This is what I heard.

"Wanna come to the Firefly Fest with me?" He said the same as me.

"Sorry, but I'm already going with someone else." she said and did a weak smile. She walked away.

I grinned, I was starting to think he'll find out I"m the guy she's going with.

"Dude, do you know who the guy Kari's going with to the Firefly Fest?" He said.

"Nope, know clue." I shook my head no. He'll find out... not that I can't help it...
