It's Friday morning and as I walked down the stairs I see my mom standing by the stove in her pink and yellow flower dress making me my typical egg white omelets, she turns around when she hears me reach the bottom of the stairs. She smiles and says "The omelets should be finished in a minute so you should get something to drink if you want something like that to the omelets".
I walk over to the refrigerator and take out the carton of orange juice and then walk over to the cupboard and take out a glass and fill it up almost to the rim. Then as I am walking to put the carton of juice I trip over the edge of the carpet and land on the floor. I quickly get up and brush myself off and put the juice away. I walk over to the counter and take my glass with juice in it and sit by the kitchen table waiting for my mom to finish my omelets. She sets down the plate with my breakfast in front of me with a smile. People might think she is babying me a little too much and I might think so at times too, I am after all almost 18.
I look at the clock and see that it almost is quarter to eight I eat up my breakfast quick and go get my backpack and so when I get back to the kitchen I ask my mom if she couldn't just drive me to school to make sure I won't me late since I don't feel like walking and I've already missed the bus. She tells me that she just will go get the car keys and that I should go wait by the car. I grab my lunch that she prepared and walk out to the car and wait not even two minutes before she walks out, she even changed, maybe not to embarrass me. Now she is wearing a pair of blue jeans and a regular t-shirt and her jeans jacket.
I notice as I'm going through my backpack that I have a protein bar so I eat it to fill up my stomach a bit more. A few minutes after I've finished it I start to feel sick so I tell my mom to pull over and tell her I need air because I feel sick so she pulls over and as soon as I'm out of the car I puke down in the ditch. I wipe my mouth off and get back in the car; mom turns the car around.
"What are you doing?" I ask.
"You are not going to school after that, we don't want it happening while you're in school," She tells me. I sigh and lean back against the car seat. When we arrive back home she calls the school and tells them that I will be home for the next two days because of food poisoning. After my mom is done talking to the school I go back up to my room, remove my makeup and change into comfy clothes and take a nap.
I wake up with a jerk when I hear my parents screaming at each other. This happens every time my mom lets me be home from school. I look at the clock it's almost 5.30PM so I get up and walk down the stairs. They quiet down and look in my direction.
"How was your nap Clementine?" My dad asks me.
"Best one in awhile until something woke me up" I say glaring at the two of them. Since I am an only child I prefer to be at my best friend Tait's house, She has a big family so you won't be alone for long. She has 4 brothers, three older and one younger. Then she has 3 sisters, they are all younger than her. They live in a regular sized house a few blocks from where I live, so as soon as I get the opportunity to go over there I will. I may or may not have my eye for one of the brothers but I would never get with him, because first of all he is my best friends brother and he is not only her brother but it is her TWIN Brother and I don't think he has any Interest in me at all, he could pretty much get anyone he wanted he was that gorgeous I think it must run in their genes because the whole family looks like they could be models.
I tell my parents that I would be going over to Tait. I walk up in my room and change into a pair of black tight fitting jeans. I walk back over to my wardrobe and look for my favorite band t-shirt when I find it I change into it and re-apply some makeup. I then walk to my jewelry holder and put on some band rubber bracelets and I'm good to go. I send a text to Tait to inform her that I'm coming over and then I'm out the door. I take my long board over to their house since my dad always complains when I take the car to their house. Even though when we come over though theirs for Sunday dinner we take the car when we can walk. Sometimes I don't understand him.
When I get to the Hemmings house I knock and am greeted by a cheerful Tait, she drags me up to her room and keeps asking me questions about why I was home today I ignore the question and tell her to put some music on, when our favorite song comes on and we are all over the room dancing and I don't even know what we are doing. We were interrupted by a knock so I walk over to Tait's phone to turn off the music as she is answering the bedroom door. It's Luke, he is telling us to keep it down he also came to tell Tait that the food is ready and then turn to me and tell me that I can eat too if I want.
As we are walking down the stairs there is a clap of thunder and just like that the power went out and I trip over myself the second time today and fall down the stairs and grab ahold of the first thing or in this case fist person I can reach which just happens to me Luke and so I drag him along with me down and as he lands on his Back and I on my front on top of him, talking about cliché, at least I didn't hit the floor. I look at Luke's face and he looks like he is in pain "You okay?" I ask chuckling.
"I'm alright, Maybe you should get up?" He says.
"Nah I think I'm good here" I joke. At last I get up as I hear Tait's voice asking if we were all right. Luke, Tait and I were instructed to get candles or flashlights so we could see and then everyone were sat down at the table eating dinner in a candlelit space.
After dinner I excused myself to the bathroom, I walk to the one upstairs by Tait and Luke's room, as I'm finished in the bathroom I walk out and bump into Luke and he grabs ahold of my arms to steady our selves
"Third time today, God is it just a bad luck day or am I just that clumsy?" I ask myself.
"I think you're just that clumsy" I hear Luke say to me and I look up at him and he just has a big grin on his face that make me smile as well
"By the way-" he starts off while letting me go and turning around towards his room.
"Ilike your shirt" and he closes his bedroom door.
