I got up the next morning ready to go to school. My birthday had just past and Bridgett gave me this new outfit. She wanted to me wear it to school, but I wasn't really sure this outfit would really appeal appropriately to others in the kind of school I go to. But Bridgett kept begging me, and again I caved.
I went over to my closet and open it. My closet was made to rotate my clothing and so that made it more easier for me to pick. I found the outfit and slipped it on. I was wearing a gray school skirt, a white blouse, and a pair of stockings, with brown highs. My hair was curled down.
I ran downstairs and found my mother and farther making breakfast. I told them I wasn't hungry. I remembered that my mother makes horrible food. She thought since our maid was out sick, she would do the cooking, why do you think we got a maid, so she wouldn't!
Anyways, I went outside to my car I got for my sixteen birthday. It wasn't that nice, nothing to go crazy over.
When I got to school, I hoped out my car and went inside. I saw Bridgett talking to Gwen-my other friend-at her locker. I went over to greet her."Hey Bridgett, did you do your assignment for Mrs. Myers?"I asked her.
He eyes became wary and big."Oh snap! I totally forgot my flute. How are you suppose to practice music without a musical instrument. Courtney, you are so lucky you sighed up for singing, I'm too scared to sing in front of everybody."Complained Bridgett.
I rolled my eyes and smiled."Oh, Bridgett it's not that hard, actually it's kind of cool, making up songs for music class."I said.
(Rinnnnnnnnng!)
"Well there goes the bell. I think Gwen and I should be heading off to Music Class."I insisted.
They both nodded as we went our separate ways. When I got in class, I went over to my seat next to Duncan. I can't believe my teacher gave me a seat next to him. When everyone was here, Mrs. Myers came in front of the classroom."Okay class, I hope everyone learned the song that Ms. Courtney Daniels assisted to us."She said.
Not everyone was very sure, although I was. I smiled and came in front of the classroom."Yes, I think since I write my own songs, this should have been easy."I agreed.
Everyone had their instruments with them, and was ready to began. My song that I wrote was called 'Devotion'
"Hey, hey, hey (3x)
Look at you, so perfectly,
sometimes I want, what I need.
Oh, because it's strange to feel,
what I can't touch.
And than look up you,
definition: Love.
(Chorus:)
It's beautiful everywhere,
up and down I driving up every corner looking for you.
And end up in my own fantasy.
Thinking of what to do.
And than it turns out to condensate ones love
it's sounds just like me definition.......Devotion"
I smile as the rest of the class finishes playing the last chords. Mrs. Myers came up to me and said,"Courtney that was very nice, you sing excellent, honey."
I heard Duncan snicker and choke out,"What a wuss."
I glared at him as the bell rang for lunch.
*In the lunch room*
"Gwen, can you believe him, he is so rude, and always commenting on everything I do. I don't know why he always has to boast and make rude remarks all the time and......"I knew I was yapping while we were eating, and I know Gwen is regretting being my friend too."....and you know what else-"I was cut off by her snapping up her finger.
"COURTNEY! I get it! He's obnoxious, okay, but you don't have to keep going and going and going until there's nothing else in the book of names-calls left to say about him, I mean geez!"She complained. Gwen notice my unforgiving sigh and added something."I mean why do you think he doesn't anyway, and than you respond."She whispered.
I mouth feel open in shock."That's exactly what I'm trying to tell you, he just does these kind of things for no reason, it just always seems he just wants me to get aggravated all the time."I yapped, again. I began to drink my water.
Gwen took a sip from her cup of juice and the swallowed before speaking."Or just want's your attention."She added.
When I heard that, I completely came in shock causing me to spit my water out of my mouth, letting it splattered on Gwen."What are you crazy!"I thought about for one second and started to speak again, while cleaned herself off. I took a deep breath and tried to smile."Gwen, Duncan is nothing but punk-attic, juvenile-delinquent, rapidly boaster, to much jell wearer, disgusting, perverted, jerk. That's what he lives for, so he wouldn't be interested in me, I mean we'll total opposites. Besides I got my eye on Steve Long, he so gorgeous."Gwen rolled her eyes.
Just than, Bridgett finally met up to us. She grabbed her tray and sat next to me."Where were you?"Asked Gwen.
Bridgett sighed."I was at the office."She said.
My eyes became big."What! What for? Do you know that can get on you permanent record? Did you even think about what you were going to do before you did it? I mean come on, Bridgett, this is so not like you!"I growled.
Bridgett rolled her eyes."Come down Courtney, the principled just wanted some adjustment to the school's talent show."She exclaimed
"Oh okay than....."
*At home*
I was laying on my bed doing my homework. My mom was working late tonight and my dad had to go on a business trip. So I was home alone.
After finished my home work, I went over to my nightstand were I put all my books. I grabbed my scrapbook, I just loving looking at old photos. I opened it up and it had a picture of when my family went to the amazon in South America. There was a picture of me and Bridgett, me and Gwen, me and Geoff, me getting my reward for perfect attendance, me when I was 5 years learning how to ride a tow wheeler bike, me riding my bike, me falling off my bike.
I laughed at some pictures. It just all seems to be going by so fast. While I was looking I notice a piece of paper sticking out the edge of my scrapbook. I took it out and read it. This is what it said.

Kindergarten
Dear Courtney,
I love your hair and how you draw smiley faces, it's almost as pretty as you. Your really nice and I hope I can be your friend someday.
Love, Duncan
I smiled and remembered how cute kindergarten was, and how Duncan used to be less obnoxious when we were in kinder. It's to bad he had to change like that I wouldn't mind being his friend. Sometimes I think he just does this to just get attention, I wonder from who?
