Friday the 13th, something bad has to happen to Mia, doesn't it?

13 February - The Loft

After the exhilaration of yesterday, I sort of feel down today, I've worn my queen Amidala panties and I watched Star Wars on the DVD yesterday, I just hope that the force is with me, gotta go...

13 February - Limo

Michael squeezed my hand as soon as he entered the car, "Ready for tonight?" he whispered in my ear. I nodded.

The trip to school was uneventful, except when Lilly started asking Lars all these questions, like if he had ever killed anyone, etc.



13 February - Biology

'The hip bone is connected to the knee bone and the knee bone is connected to the...'

That song just came into my head, while I listen to Shameeka explaining how to dissect a frog, I'm glad that she's my Bio partner. At least she's not squeamish about the dissection; I just want to throw up.

13 February - Algebra

Oh My God! I just realized that I don't know what I'm going to wear for our date tonight. (I sort of squealed as I thought that and Mr. G is giving me a funny look.) I need Tina and Shameeka to help me out, both seem to be experts at boys...

Now that that's out of the way, let's concentrate on the square root of a polynomial...I have no idea what I just wrote, I hope that the movie that Michael chooses is nice. Ok, I need to calm down. Mr. Gianini is looking at me again, the fraction of a factor calls again...

13 February - G & T

No, no, Nooooooo!!! I'm going to wake up now, sweating from that horrible nightmare! I knew all of this was too good to be true, I knew that Michael could never genuinely like a 6 foot, big-foot yeti! Oh, I'm so confused...did I do anything? Michael cancelled our date...I don't know-

I broke off there because Lilly grabbed the pen out of my hand. She sat me down in front of her and is like "Mia, what is wrong? First my brother is moping around, then I see you sobbing over your journal...did you guys have a fight or something?"

I shook my head and a tear slipped down my big nose (Every one of features seem ugly to me right now)

"Mia" she commanded, "Look at me!"

I looked up reluctantly, Lilly has picked up the whole psycho-analytical thing from her parents and she read me like an x-ray. "What then?" she demanded

"M-Michael...cancelled our...date and I'm sure that...h-he doesn't like me... a-anymore..."I replied hiccupping violently

Amazingly, Lilly laughed, "Mia, has the whole princess thing affected your brain? Did Michael explain why he was postponing?"

I nodded, "He just said that...that he had to go s-somewhere really important and could we do this another day?"

Lilly's face darkened, "That is so typical of Michael...well, let me explain. Michael suddenly has to write an entrance exam to get into Harvard! If he passes well, he'll get a scholarship"

I wiped my eyes, and stared at her "What? Why didn't he tell me?"

"Well, you know Michael...he probably feels that it's such a pathetic reason to break your first date-"

"Is he crazy? Oh my God! I'm so happy for him! Harvard? Wow!" even I laughed now, "Is that why he left school?" I asked, gesturing to his empty seat

Lilly slowly shook her head, "Michael's still in school...he told me that he couldn't face you. This is hard to believe but he's playing Hooky!"

My expression must have dropped, "Michael? Bunking? Where is he?"

Lilly shrugged, "No Idea...maybe on the fields?"

I stood up so quickly that my chair clattered on the floor, Lilly stood up, "You know Mia? He was scared that YOU might break up with HIM! I told him that he was crazy, but he won't listen to me! Maybe you should talk to him-Hey! Where are you going?"

"To talk to him!" I called over my shoulder as I ran out of class

Thank God that Mrs. Hill doesn't stay in class, and the corridors were empty, so I didn't run into anyone.

When I reached the fields...well, either Michael wasn't hiding there or he was hiding REALLY well. I noticed that the sky was turning dark really quickly.

"Michael!" I called softly as I meandered along the edges of the fields, hoping that no teacher could see me out of their windows. Realizing that I was now far away from school, I called more loudly "Michael!". A drop fell on my forehead.

I heard some rustling behind me, but before I could even turn, the skies opened and buckets rained down. Someone grabbed my arm and pulled me into a nearby shed. It was Michael.

"Er...hi" he said. I just stared at him, his hair was wet and his uniform was soaked but he STILL looked gorgeous.

Michael reddened and then looked at the wooden floor, "It's Ok, you know...I'll understand if you want to break up...I haven't been the best boyfriend or anything..."

Now I really did laugh and I threw my arms around his neck, he hugged me back. "Why would I want to break up with you? Lilly told me and..." I burst into giggles.

Michael held me away and looked into my face, thinking that he probably going out with a lunatic, but he smiled, "So you're not mad at me?"

"What for? Oh, I'm so proud of you and-" I surprised even myself and leaned up and kissed him on the lips. It was a long kiss. When we broke apart, Michael grinned and said, "I should do this more often."

I laughed and he kissed me again...until we heard the distant bell ring.

It was still drizzling when we left the shed and we ran through the rain, holding hands. Oh, I'm so happy...I can't write anymore, I want to savour this feeling.

13 February - French

I just wanted to make a note that we're going out tomorrow - to a movie of my choice - STAR WARS!

13 February - Limo on way home

I just realized, Lilly may not be the most typical best friend...but she is my best friend - she is there when you need her.

Hey everyone! What do you think? I've been improvising this story as I write but I'm rather proud of it! Sorry for being so irregular in my updating but school is driving me crazy! I love the Princess Diaries stories because you can always fantasize as you write it ;-)This story isn't based on anything but my other PD story is progressing as things in my life go on...
