Tired. Stef had never felt so tired. Three months of sleeping in as late as she please had spoiled her. This 8 AM stuff was for the birds. Her mom had had to literally drag the covers off of her this morning setting the blaring alarm clock next to her ear. Her father had chuckled when he spotted his disheveled daughter coming down the stairs. To make her morning worse Mike had forgot to pick her up so she had to ride the cold bus

" You're next Ms. Marie. "

Stef's eyes widened and she looked around the classroom, she had no idea what was going on so she just stared until the teacher restated himself.
" Your name and an interesting fact about yourself. "

" Oh! Um Im Stef Marie and I like to day dream " Stef cracked a smile and the class giggled .

" Yes well " the teacher, who Stef soon learned was Mr. Burns huffed " Let's not make a habit of it shall we? "

" Yeah of course " Stef nodded several times. Before long the class let out and Stef made her way to her locker. Mike was leaning against it backpack slug over his shoulder .

" How do you know where my locker is ? " Stef questioned while letting Mike pull her close.

" I asked around " Mike smiled back slyly

" so you know where my locker is but not my house " Stef lightly pushed him aside to open her locker.

" Oh yeah I was running late "

" You could of texted me that "

" Look let me make it up to you! We can go out after the game tonight! "

" You'll be all sweaty "

" Well fine " Mikes mood immediately soured. Stef rolled her eyes

" Excuse me " a quite voice interrupts the couple. Lena Adams , who lived two doors down from Stef , was standing near by. " My locker is right here "

" Yeah sure" Mike unhedged himself from the wall, " Maybe I'll call you later " he spat before strolling off.

" Don't bother " Stef sighed and ran her hand through her hair. Looking through her locker she grabbed the books she needed and weaved her way to class.

"Woooooah! Go Anchor Beach! " the screams coming for the stand were deafening as Anchor Beach scored yet another touchdown. Stef cheered along, making sure to scream a little louder whenever Mike made a good play because that's what girlfriends do. All her friends were amazed that she was going out with Michael Foster , she was a little shocked herself. They had been friends sense Freshman year and had kissed one night last year while Stef was rather tipsy. He was nice and funny and Stef enjoyed hanging out with him, when he was a in a good mood.

The clock ticked down and the game ended, upperclassmen poured into the parking lot to go to b'dubs after the win. Stef search for her boyfriend but couldn't find him anywhere. Sighing she texted the doofus and found out he had already left because he thought she was still mad.

" K. " she quickly typed back and plopped down onto the curb. Her parents had gone to dinner so she had no ride home. Rubbing her temples Stef spotted Lena who was dropping something in her trunk. " Hey Lena! " Stef stood up and jogged over to her new locker mate. " think I could have a ride home? "

Lena's breathe caught in her throat. " Uh yeah sure!" her voice cracked while she spoke. " Hop in"

Sorry these are so short guys but I'll keep plugging away! Stef and Lena are the best. If you have suggestions I'd love to hear em !
