Third-wheeling
Mia
" Hurry up Mia you're gonna be late" My twin sister Mya called me as I hurried to the bus stop.
I wonder how she could wake up so early in the morning just for school. And the fact that she didn't wake me up just made me angrier at her. This is what usually happened every school morning. It usually happened like this, Mya wakes up and gets ready, while I sleep in and end up rushing things.
" The bus is almost here Mia, next time you'll have to walk to school" Mya yelled at me.
" Geez, calm down, It's not my fault, I can't wake up early" I yelled back at her.
" Only if you could put your phone down and sleep at night, you could make it to the bus stop just in time," Mya said.
Caroline Mya's best friend walked over to our bus spot. It seems that I'm not the only one late, and that's good cuz I got someone to join me as well.
Caroline had blond hair and green eyes which were usually covered by her long bangs. She had a beige skin tone with had braces. She really dislikes her braces but honestly, she looked good in it.
" Heyy" Mya hugged Caroline from the back like their usual routine every morning.
" Hey and Thank God I made it here just in time, I thought my parents would have to drive me to school again" Caroline gasped.
Caroline hated being driven to school by her parents because they always got out of the car with her and greeted the teachers which was always an embarrassing scene. It always was for teens.
" Well, good thing you're here" Mya responded smiling and patting Caroline like a puppy.
Caroline brushed parts of her hair back since Mya messed it back.
"Um...Someone talk to me please" I snapped. " I just KNOW I'm gonna be third-wheeling AGAIN"
" You might as well make it a routine for yourself" Caroline giggled.
I just couldn't wait to reach school and have a morning chat with Natalia, whose been my best friend forever. We've been friends ever we were in diapers.....Literally. I was being teased after I took a dump in my diapers and my nursery teacher didn't even notice until that stench started smelling.
The nursery bully at that time, Micheal, called over his friends and started bullying me. Natalia came and defended me though. Everyone knew Micheal like Natalia so he couldn't bully her. The sad thing is that Natalia is not on the same bus as I am, meaning I have to continue third-wheeling Caroline and Mya until somehow we reach high school or college where I could finally buy my own car.
Our school bus pulled up at our spot after a few minutes of torture but it honestly felt like hours. You might think I'm exaggerating, but exaggerating is the definition of me so deal with it. I entered the bus following Caroline and Mya who normally sat in the middle seat. I decided to sit in the back seat since I just usually liked sitting in the back seat for some reason, it's refreshing I guess especially when there's someone to talk to(Jeff).
" Hey come sit" Jeff called patted next to an empty spot next to him.
" Oh hey," I called back, waving at him, and went to sit next to him.
He had copper-red hair, which was really gorgeous. It was only gorgeous to me because it reminded me of roses. His hazel brown eyes also matched perfectly with his hair color.
You can call Jeff cute, but I wasn't really focused on his looks.
" Whassup, you look lonely ... as usual" He exclaimed smiling.
" Are you even surprised?" I asked shaking my head.
"Oh which girl stage are you going through right now," He asked." Is it your cramps or PMS?"
" Shut up, this isn't a girl stage" I sighed and took out my phone hoping Natalia was online so I could chat with her.She wasn't online........just great.
" If it isn't a girl stage what is it then?" Jeff scratching his head like he was even thinking about it.
" I was third-wheeling Mya and Caroline AGAIN, they were giving me a headache," I said dramatically.
"Oh, that happens every morning," Jeff says and takes out a paper ball and shoots it at a 6th grade who sat in the front seat of the bus. The 6th grader was a boy who shook for a moment, but he took the ball and didn't shoot it at Jeff.
If I was that six-grade boy, I would've shot back at him.
" There's no need to bully the 6th graders' Jeff, remember we were once like them" I heard Mya (like the mom she is)exclaim from the middle seat where she sat with Caroline who was busy fixing her hair.
" Shut up Ratchet hair" Jeff insulted Mya.
I shot him a dirty look and punched him in the stomach (maybe a little too hard)." Just remember that she's still my sister"
" Ouch " He groans
"Don't worry Mia" Mya calls out again." Remember Ratchet can be used to describe something exciting and excellent so thank you for your compliment."
Jeff squinted his eyes and rolled his eyes. I laugh slightly trying my best to hide it so Jeff wouldn't get angry.
Jeff scoffed and slump back in his seat. I mostly try to calm him down but for once, I let him be.
It didn't take him seconds to even calm down and turn around to talk to his friend about football. Now once again, I'm alone again.
" NOO, Another day of torture" Natalia cried after she hugged me.
" Hello class, I hope you all are doing great today anyways let's head right into today's class, Can you all girls and boys take out yesterday's letter, that was given to you students to be signed by your parents" My teacher Mrs. Drexel instructed.
