Your song's the same, leave me with all the blame. I don't have time for another game. I don't wanna dance, so don't you ask me, babe. I don't wanna dance, you blew your chance! To rock my night away. I want some fun... She lay on her bed, half-asleep and not wanting to get up. But it was almost noon, and her first class of the day started in two hours, and she had things to do before then. Pulling her pillow over her head, she groaned at the sound of her alarm going off for the tenth time since it first started at eleven. Sighing, she reached over for her phone, fumbling a bit but finally grabbing it and turning off the loud noise. Throwing her pillow to one side, she sat up and stretched her arms, then put her feet on the floor. She was wearing a pair of shorts and an oversized hoodie, the hood pulled over her messy hair. It wasn’t pretty… Going to the bathroom, she started a shower. Once she was clean and feeling a lot more awake, she pulled on a pair of jeans, a tank top, and grabbed a cleaner hoodie. It was gray with her double backs on it, one of her favorite hoodies to wear. After socks and shoes, Rylan grabbed her messenger bag and made sure it had everything in it she’d need that day. Once confirmed, she headed out of her room and down to the kitchen, setting her bag down and going over to raid the fridge. She was hungry, as was the case every time she woke up late, and craving something with sugar in it. She decided on cereal and went to sit at the table once she had a bowl full of frosted flakes. Usually, Rylan wasn’t awake this later, but she hadn’t been able to sleep the night before, and had finally gotten a few precious hours of sleep in the morning. Luckily, she had later classes that day, or she’d have been in trouble for being absent. Sure, she was a rather odd girl, but Rylan did care about being here for her classes, most especially now that she was into her major. Skipping English 101? Sure, whatever. But skipping out on Art History? No way. She needed that class, bad. This wasn’t really something she advertised, though, liking to put on a façade of ‘I don’t care’ in front of her friends. Only people super close to her knew the truth. Most of her motivation was to prove her mother wrong – the stupid woman didn’t think Rylan would graduate college, no matter the degree, and so of course Rylan had to show her that she could. But art was her passion, even more than protesting against animal cruelty (though that was pretty darn important, too). It was quiet in the house, and she glanced around, wondering where everyone was. Wait, classes, duh, she told herself, crunching down the sugary goodness of her cereal. But usually her sisters were in and out of the place… Oh, well. Someone would be around at some point, and Rylan did have some time to kill before her class. She also had some reading to do, but that wasn’t happening. Her brain wasn’t up to it… Good thing she knew the teacher didn’t quiz on that stuff. Another lucky break for her today. She grabbed the box of cereal and poured another bowl, finding herself super hungry. As she sat and chowed down, she pulled out her sketch book and a pencil, and began doodling, one of her most favorites of past times. How did she always find herself eating alone? © melly welly from caution 2.0 | LYRICS ARE I DON’T WANNA DANCE BY HEY MONDAY OUTFIT: N/A | 572 WORDS | NOTES: Woo, breakfast for lunch! |
