Please no flames, my friends and I were bored, and we just decided to write this.

Alexandra Bloom walked into the kitchen early in the morning, it was probably only about 7:30. She inhaled the smell coming from the automatic coffee machine. Stretching, she arched her back and yawned.

"I see you're up early, Alex."

Alex jumped, causing her mom to laugh. Mrs. Bloom walked over to the coffee pot, "Why are you up at this hour, usually your rushing out the door with only a piece of toast for breakfast."

"Oh, so you want me to be late, huh? Well fine, I'll just take my sweet time then." Alex sat down at the dining table and pointed her nose up, trying to look arrogant. A small diamond glittered on the side.

The green light on the coffee machine lit up. Mrs. Bloom opened up the cabinet, it squeaked as she shut it after getting a mug. "I still don't agree with you getting that thing on your nose. I would have cared less if you had gotten your ears pierced a second time," she said while pouring coffee in her mug.

"Mom," Alex groaned, "It's just a little stone! Everyone's getting their nose pierced these days!"

"Well, if I'm one of those people maybe I should get my nose pierced, too."

"MOM!" cried Alex in disbelief.

"What are you ladies doing?" Said Mr. Bloom as he came in rubbing the sleep from his eyes. "All this stuff about noses and piercing..." he grumbled. He walked over to his wife and kissed her cheek, then kissed Alex on her forehead Mrs. Bloom smiled behind her cup while drinking, while Alex tried to rub the kiss off.

"Mom was telling me she was going to become a skater chick and get her nose pierced," Alex said while pushing the hair from her face, she slouched in her chair. Mr. Bloom looked at his wife for an explanation.

Mrs. Bloom gave her daughter a menacing glare, "rephrase that."

"Mom was just proving her point that I shouldn't follow the trend I should set it, because I shouldn't jump off a bridge just because my friends do." Alex glared at her mom, while she nodded her head with approval.

"You guys are odd, is Orlando up?" he says while he shook his head from side to side.

"No he left early this morning." Mrs. Bloom replied.

"About that nose thing-" her mom was saying.

"-Oh look at the time, I gotta go meet Justin at the Star Bucks," Alex grabbed her backpack off the back of her chair, kissed her mom on the cheek and walked quickly out the door. Her mom watched after her as she ran down Page Street. The morning dew on the roof tops slid creating a calm and peaceful scene for the bright an beautiful morning.
