Hearing the bell ring Annika felt koyous. One more clas.s then to the Cafe with Shine. Her last cals.s had turned out to be Christian Ethics with Deacon Lang. Yay! I have always loved Christian Ethics, and from what I hear this guy is great! She walked off to the clas.sroom

Kyrian had never been more relieved in his life, cla.ss is finally over! Now I can leave. Being a senior, he had all his necessary credits so he scheduled it so that he didn’t have the last period of the day. Leisurely he walked over to his locker and placed his books in, before grabbing his biology book. Shutting with a bit of force he whispered, “Oops.” To no one in particular, don’t know my own strength anymore. Must be all that *pull I’ve been doing. Doing his lope down the hall, because walking just doesn’t do him justice, he brushed past some old football pals. Finally he got to his car, my sweet baby, he thought. Throwing his book bag into the back he slid into the diver seat and cranked the music. Star Struck by 30H3 with Katy Perry, he loved this song for some reason. It’s a bit offensive to both genders, being that it’s saying guys like curvy girls while girls like to be teases to guys. But the tune is just so catchy. Leaning back in his seat, Kyrian enjoyed his smooth ride. Nothing could be better, well unless I had a cute girl sitting next to me.

((*Pull is when you're swimming without using your arms, often there is a bowie to keep your legs from sinking.))

Sitting in what was a highly entertaining cl*censored*, Annika couldn't help but think about hanging out with Shine. This will be my first time getting to go out since I lived in *Meissen*. She sould hardly wait for the bell to ring.

**Meissen is a small town in Germany where my great grandma was born.

When the bell rang Sunshine’s inner-self said, run! Trample all of these dumb pedestrians! Who cares anyway! But she controlled herself, as she walked casually down the hall. That is until she saw Annika, smilingly like a five year old on Christmas, Sunshine jogged over to her. Then suddenly it donned on her, we have to walk because I left my car at home. Glancing over Annika’s shoulder, so she wouldn’t have to look her in the eyes, Sunshine told her, “Um about today. I left my car at home so we have to walk. Is that ok?” Sparing a glance at Annika, Sunshine was relieved to not see any malice, when her cell phone vibrated. Jumping in shock, Sunshine squeaked in surprise. No one calls me. Asking Annika to hold for a minute, she answered, “Hello?”

Scowling when she heard her brother say, “No goodbye." Quite sarcastically, "of course someone would be on the other line Sol. I was just wondering if you wanted a ride home, since you kinda forgot your car.”

Sunshine was about to say no when she thought better of it and asked, “Can I have a friend come along?”

There was a grand pause before Sunshine wanted to rip her brother’s face off, “You have a friend? When? Who? Wait forget that, I’ll be out front in two.”

Hanging up instantly before Sunshine could say anything else, she stared at Annika. “I just got a ride from my brother. He’ll take us to my house where I can get my car, and then we’ll be on our way. You ok with that?” she half asked, half stated.

Zane went ram-rod straight, but then he realized that it was only Stephani. That was a bit close. “Well I couldn’t have said it any better myself.” He stated sarcastically and added, “Why don’t you close that door before she sees and we both get in trouble.” Sliding the cover back over the keys he got up and grabbed his bag. Seeing a cheer jacket on the chair Stephani was using earlier he asked, “Did you come back for this?” Picking it up Zane brought it over to her.

((Poor Sunny,))

Annika said, "Yeah, what about a sleepover?" Yes, we have  the same German teacher, but different times. "If you ever have trouble with German just ask, it's my second language, Croatian  being my first and English, I've been speaking almost as long as Croatian, but more recently trying to remember long words" she shrugged, "I just remember words well. So languages are easy for me"

Sunshine held her hands together, like she was about to pray, and said, “Thank you Lord, for you have sent me a wonderful savior. Who will help me keep my 4.0 grade point average, right?” Laughing by the end Sunshine hoped that Annika realized that it was sincere because she really didn’t understand German. Dump down in New Mexico, or Puerto Rico, and I’ll be one happy muchacha! But throw in into Germany and I’ll be doing the potty dance for a long while. Sliding into Kyrian’s car, Sunshine took the back so Annika could choice to either sit by her or in the front. She had been taught well that guests should always have options. “Don’t worry; Kiki is like a Saint Bernard, all bark with no bite.” Sunshine teased.
