It's No Fun on the Sidelines
This happens all the time
I groaned as my alarm clock beeped annoyingly, almost like it was laughing at for having to get up at 5:30 am. I punched it and turned it off. My mom walked in and smiled.
“Oh good! Your awake,” she said with a smile.
I nodded and followed her into the kitchen, where pancakes, eggs and a glass of orange juice were waiting for me.
“Mom....” She looked at me and shrugged her shoulders. “I couldn't go back to sleep.”
I shook my head as I sat down and ate my breakfast. I finished quickly and brushed my teeth. I went back into my room, getting dressed and putting my books into my bag. I grabbed my iPod and phone, my car keys and a can of Monster. I quickly kissed my mom's cheek and got into my car, driving to school.
My friend Angie smiled and waved at me as I shut my locker.
“Monster!?” she gasped, slightly glaring at me.
“Just because I'm signed to Red Bull doesn't mean I have to drink it ALL THE TIME!” I said.
We both laughed and walked down the hallway to pass the time until the morning bell rang. My phone suddenly started buzzing. My caller I.D flashed “John”, my manager. I groaned inwardly and answered.
“Hey John. Whats going on?” I asked. He never called me during school unless is was important.
“Hey Katie. Be ready to leave at 7:45, your going to meet your coach and start training.” I rolled my eyes, slightly unhappy.
“Does this mean I have to stay with them?”
“Yes ma'am.” He said, trying to make me laugh.
I really didn't want to finished out my senior year on a computer. I wanted to be with my friends and go to dances.
“How long?” I asked, dreading the answer.
He sighed and answered me. “Until June 21st. Then you get to go home for a bit, but then you have to go back. But I worked it out so you can go to Prom and your Graduation.”
I smiled and exhaled loudly. “Good. So am I getting to stop by home to pack?”
I heard him snort a laugh. “Duh! Okay, so I'll be there soon. We'll stop by your house, then it's off to the airport.”
“Okay John. Bye.” I hung up and looked at Angie.
She frowned and hugged me. The morning bell rang and I sent her a pleading look.
“I'll see you during Show Choir.” She nodded and we went our separate ways.
“Oh good! Your awake,” she said with a smile.
I nodded and followed her into the kitchen, where pancakes, eggs and a glass of orange juice were waiting for me.
“Mom....” She looked at me and shrugged her shoulders. “I couldn't go back to sleep.”
