JASMINE'S P.O.V.
I wake up to the sound of my alarm. I keep tapping it to make it shut up but it doesn't work. I knock it on the floor and it stopped ringing.

I groan and just lay in the bed with my eyes closed. Then I realize my alarm is my phone so I look over the side of the bed quickly to see it turned off. Must've landed on the home button.

Since I'm already up, I go ahead and get ready for prison. There's really no point of school since we have the Internet. We could look up everything on there.

I go into the bathroom, brush my hair and teeth, get dressed, put on mascara, and walk out.

I don't wear a lot of makeup because there's no point and it's just school. On special occasions I might wear eyeliner, and the only time I wear concealer is if I have a pimple or something.

I head downstairs to see my mom and dad in the kitchen. They love to sit at the counter a lot and drink coffee in the morning (A/N dad goes to Channing Tatum in this book too😂).

"Morning Jazz,"My dad says.

"Aloha."I love saying hi's in different languages.

"Yesterday morning was Hola and now Aloha. What's tomorrow gonna be?"My mom asks.

"You have to wait and see,"I smile. I grab a water bottle, an apple, and walk out into the living room to watch tv.

Shawn and I walk to school together so Shawn comes over in the morning. He takes forever to get ready because he wants his hair to be, and I quote, 'perfect'.

I flip through the channels and since its morning, a lot of cartoons are on. I decide to watch Little Einsteins because of the beginning song.

After the song ends I change to spongebob. A couple minutes later Shawn comes walking through the door  with his bag in his hand.

"Why isn't your bag over your shoulder?"I ask. We ask each other dumb questions to annoy each other.

"Does it matter?"He asks.

"Yes,"I nod and Shawn glares at me.

"Well it doesn't matter to me,"He says.

"Someone's cranky,"I say.

"I didn't get enough because Aaliyah needed A LOT of help on her homework."

"Well don't take your anger out on me,"I say and he rolls his eyes.

I turn the tv off and get up. I grab my bag and hand Shawn my apple and he looks down at his hand in disgust.

"Mind throwing it away for me?"I ask already knowing the answer.

"Yes I do mind,"He says giving it back to me.

"Well you're gonna say hi to my parents so might as well throw it away,"I say handing it to him again.

"Fu-"He starts to say but gets cut off by my mom.

"Hi Shawn,"She says coming into the living room.

"Hi mom 2,"He smiles.

"Watch your language Shawn,"She says and Shawn gives her a sheepish smile.

Shawn goes in the kitchen to say hi to my dad and comes back without the apple so he obviously threw it away.

He comes back into the living room and I put my shoes on. We say bye to my parents and leave.

"Hah you got caught by my mom,"I smile and he rolls his eyes.

"Awe don't be mad,"I say and ruffle his hair. He swats my hand away and fixes it. Then my phone dings and I get it out my bag. It's a text from Kyle and Shawn tries to look over my shoulder.

Kyle- Morning, I'll be at your locker

Me- ok

I put my phone away and I Shawn scoots back to where we were. Shawn's locker is right next to mine because of alphabetical order and I know he's gonna eavesdrop on us. Shawn's protective like that.

"I don't even know why you like him, he's just going to break your heart,"Shawn says.

"Whatever,"I say.

"Don't come running to me when he does, I won't help you,"He says and I roll my eyes.

"Also how dare you wear a California sweatshirt and not a Canada one?"He asks pointing to my sweatshirt.

"I really want to go to California, youtubers make it seems so beautiful,"I say. (A/N I don't live in Canada)

We arrive at school a couple minutes later. My school is basically just like every other high school. The jocks, the geeks, the mean girls.

Shawn and I head to our lockers and I see Kyle at mine with his hands in his pockets looking around. Once he sees me he smiles. I hear Shawn mumble something under his breath but I just ignore it.

"Hey Jazz,"He says.

"Hi,"I say. Shawn rolls his eyes and opens his locker.

"Just wanted to let you know that the game starts at 7:00 come a little early if you want good seats. Just don't be late,"He says and smiles.

I smile back and he walks away and bumps shoulders with Shawn.

"Douche,"Shawn says but Kyle doesn't hear it, he's too far away.

"Be nice."

"I don't want to,"He says.

"Plus he could've just texted you everything he just told you."

"He can tell me in person if he want to,"I say.

"He probably did that to piss me off,"He says.

"Calm down, Shawn."

Shawn and Kyle used to be friends but it all changed when Kyle started changing. He used to be nice, but when we got to high school they got in an argument because Kyle was breaking girls hearts.

He hasn't done that in a while so he has changed back to his normal self. Shawn doesn't see it though.

Shawn and I go ahead and walk to class. Brian, Rhea, and Lauren are already in the class.

Rhea's in front of me, Shawn's behind me, Brian's next to Shawn, and Lauren is next to me. Rhea just has a random person next to her.

Brian and Shawn start talking and Rhea and Lauren start talking. I don't do anything, I just sit and listen to people conversation.

Shawn's talking to Brian about Harry Potter. Rhea's telling Lauren about TVD.

Class eventually starts and the teacher does whatever she has to do. Soon it's lunchtime, my favorite part, and soon it's time to leave, my other favorite part.
