Lux POV
She was only supposed to stay for two weeks, instead Baze "fell under her spell" and kept her. Lux's life was pretty good, better than it started. She had Brynn, her best friend, Jones, her boyfriend, and her was on the girl's basketball team. Not to mention she had great grades and it didn't even matter to her that she doesn't know her mom. Lux gets the whole legal situation, but that's okay because she gets a woman's perspective from Cate Cassidy on Morning Madness. Cate and Ryan are honestly her favorite celebrities. Ugh, when will they realize they belong together?
The clock read 7:20
"Math, did you leave? If not can I have a ride, please? Hello?"
Crap, he already left
Lux ran over to Baze's room, hoping he wasn't asleep.
"Dad, Daaad, Father, can you give me a ride to school? Hello?"
Baze groaned though the door and fell off the bed. "Lux, have I ever told you that this whole school thing is killing me?"
"Yes, many times. And I agree with you. Can I drop out?"
"Let me think about it. Give me a few days."
Baze put on his "tap that" shirt and leather jacket. He grabbed a doughnut and left the open bar towards his jeep.
"Okay, check list: Money?"
"Check."
"Phone?"
"Check."
"Today's Homework?"
"Um... never mine, check."
"Headphones?"
"Check."
"Coffee?"
"Check"
"Keys?"
"Check."
"Books and school stuff?"
"Check."
"Pass to wait at the library?"
"Check."
"And, most important, field trip form?"
"Check."
"Okay, kiddo, let's go."
They left the open bar towards Westmonte High School
When they finally got there Lux saw the poster. Cate and Ryan from Morning Madness will be coming to our school! Lux loved Cate and Ryan. But Baze didn't, he didn't like her listening to them and he especially didn't listen. Lux never knew why, but that doesn't matter. All that matters is that Cate and Ryan are coming to Westmonte.
"Love you kiddo, have a great day." Baze called after Lux as soon as she left the car.
"Do I ever?!" Lux shouted back.
Lux ran up to her boyfriend, Jones, and best-friend, Brynn.
"Did you hear? K100 is coming to this school! I don't know why, but they are!"
"Oh yeah, apparently Cate Cassidy went here in high school." Brynn said, giving a reason to why Cate and Ryan were coming.
"Really? Cool, anyway, Lux are you going to be able to make it to the library?" Jones said, changing the subject.
"Yeah, we all need to study for that test. You know, we should invite the new girl, Natasha."
"Yeah no." Brynn said, "She's a foster freak."
"I was in the foster system."
"Yeah, but she's been in it all her life. That must suck, at least you found your dad."
"Not mom though, apparently it's illegal for my dad to tell me, or the state to tell me so, I am left guessing."
The bell rang and Brynn, Jones, and Lux ran to class.
Even though English is her favorite subject, she liked the teacher, Mr. Daniels, Lux couldn't help but think only about K100 Morning Madness, coming to her school.
