**BEEP*BEEP**

Laura heard her alarm clock go off. Groaned to herself, and leaned over to shut it off. As she was trying to find the off button the clock feel on the ground.

She tried to reach it but fell out of bed in the process making a loud thud on the ground. She finally sat up and turned the Alarm off.

Her mom walked in "Laura are you ok?"

"I'm fine mom, and please don't call me that" She said getting up

"Sorry, Firefly" her mom said sarcastically" Hurry up and get ready for school."

Laura was an average 17 year old trying to make her way through life. When she turned 14 she asked her parents to call her Firefly, because when she was young the last thing her grandmother gave her was choker that had a firefly at the end of it.

That same year her parents told her that she was adopted, she wasn't surprised

It was an average Monday morning for Laura, or so she though. She changed into a black spaghetti strap top, black and red baggy pants, and her black cargo boots.

After eating a toaster strudel and getting herself ready she got into her red Camry and went to pick up her best friend Niya.

They had both put money together to buy the car but Firefly kept it because she lived in a safer neighborhood.

Finally at school they parked and were about to enter the school went the cheerleading squad got in from of them.

"Good morning freak" the head cheerleader said in a very preppy voice, the rest of the squad just laughed.

"Get a life Kacy!" Laura answered with a grin smile.

"Yeah get a life, Firefly could make a way better cheerleader than any of y'all" Niya said

"Really show us then," Kacy said.

"Fine I will" Laura said putting her books on the floor. She got into her starting position and did 2 normal cartwheel and 1 handless cartwheel. The students around her started clapping.

"Is that enough proof?" Niya said clapping.

Laura walked back and grabbed her books gave Kacy mean 'look' and walked towards the cafeteria, Niya followed. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
