Skyler's POV
I woke up to my blaring alarm once again. I groaned then rolled out of bed. Quite literally. I fell on the ground with a thud and decided to just lay there for a few minutes until I felt Marley licking my ear. I started laughing my ass off because of how much that tickled when I heard Tyler walk into my room.
"Sky get your clumsy ass up off the ground." He said while laughing at me. I lifted up my head to glare at him then got up and pushed him out of my room.
Once I closed the door, I looked at Marley and cooed when I saw that she was curled up in a ball on the ground. I walked to my closet and started looking for an outfit that screams 'I don't give a fuck'.
Luckily, I have just the outfit. I found an old, light blue pair of baggy jeans, a black crop top and one of Tyler's black sweatshirts. I head to my bathroom to brush my hair out and leave it down. I decided to just put on some mascara and eyeliner. The usual.

I did my morning routine then grabbed my white high top converse. Once I was done tying my shoes, I picked up Marley, grabbed my bag, then headed downstairs.
"Hey Tyler, what are we gonna do with Marley? We can't just bring her to school." I said as I grabbed a breakfast bar and sat down on the couch with Marley in my arms.
He looked up at me from his phone. "I got a call from Principal Stevens telling me that Yasmin told him about us at the vet with Marley and since Liam was out on a business trip for a bit, he said that we could bring her into the office and he'd watch her until the end of the school day." He gave me a small smile before joining me on the couch.
"Oh man that's great! Okay so we're good to go?" I asked him.
He nodded then got up and grabbed both mine and his bag and headed to the door. I grabbed my skateboard in one hand and held Marley with the other.
"Shit Tyler we should go to the pet store after school. We gotta buy a bunch of stuff for Marley." I said as we headed out the door to his truck.
"Yeah we can do that. Just write down a list on your phone of the most important things we need for her." I nodded then put my board in the back by Tyler's skateboard. I got into the passenger seat and buckled up. Once he put his seat belt on, we were off to school.
