A day in the life of Penny Fitzgerald

Then I saw him, he was my blue cat in shining armour. Gumball Watterson. Me and him go to the same school, Elmore junior high. Were both twelve, but were so different because he's a blue cat and I'm a peanut cross moose. Anyway, then I saw him, his eyes were huge and shining like stars in a blue furry universe. "Amazing!" I exclaimed, as he took a step towards me. We leaned in to kiss, but just then my alarm went off.

" Groan" I grumbled, getting out of bed. I did the usual routine before the school bus arrived with a beep! I gave my mom and dad each a hug and rushed out of the door. Gumball wasn't on the bus because he lives around the corner so I sat next to Masami, one of my friends. "Hey" she greeted, with a smile. "Hey" I replied. We started to have a conversation about Molly's treehouse, when the bus stopped again. And Gumball and Darwin got on. They walked past me to sit at the back, and as they did, Gumball said "hi". "Hey" I replied, blushing. When they sat down, I glanced one more time at Gumball and sighed with love. Then Masami and I began to talk about our classes.

We arrived at school, and got off the bus, I tried to get close to Gumball but Tobias stepped in front of me. When we got inside, I went straight to my locker which was stuffed full of love notes that I never dared send and instant camera pictures of boys taken by my friends. It was an average girl's locker for Elmore junior high! I took out my faviruote photo, which was of Gumball. I kissed it softly and set off to class.

Of course it was chaos in my class before Miss Simian arrived. I cautiously stepped inside the flurry of paper aeroplanes and screwed up pieces of paper. The sound of chatter and gossip was tremendous, but even so I sat in my seat calmly. Gumball's desk was next to mine, and he was sat in it, but not calmly. He had turned round to talk to Darwin. And the two of them chatted happily. Until, Miss Simain arrived. "Good morning class!" she yelled in her screechy and irritating voice. "Good morning Miss Simian" we muttered back.

At first break, we all went out onto the playground. I went to hang around with Masami and the gang but Gumball went to play with Darwin. Me and Masami and so on all sat on the wall. And we got gossiping about Teri and her crush and about how Carmen had to go to guidance counselling because she burst into tears in three lessons. Then the bell rang, so we went back to class.

Darwin had to get a book out of his locker, so I talked to Gumball, before Miss Simain got back. "So, do you want to walk me to the canteen later?" I asked hopefully. "Sure" he said, eyes shining. And then Miss Simain walked in so class got on with work.

The bell rang for lunch so I walked down with Gumball and Darwin. And then we got our food, and the girls invited me over so I went to sit with we ate our lunch whilst chatting, and I could see Gumball and Darwin chatting too. And I must have caught his eye, because he waved with a friendly smile. I could see that he was blushing, just like I imagine I was. The bell rang then, so we set off to the last of our classes for the day.

I was just putting my things in my locker for tomorrow. When Gumball and Darwin came up to me. Gumball was bright red and quiet so Darwin said with a smile,"Gumball wants to ask you out on a date!" And then my alarm went off.

The End
