Hi, I'm Lyza // Taylor Swift adoption

1 // swimming fast

When I hear the screeching blow of a whistle in my ear, i step onto the block to swim my 100 freestyle. All of my friends from the swim team, Mikaela, Maddy, Grace, and Addie, were waiting at the other end of the pool waiting to cheer me on.

"Swimmers, take your mark.." said the official through the speakers.
I dove into the cold water as soon as i heard the loud beep which meant "go".

I swim as fast as i can to get to the other end and back. When i got to the other end of the pool the second time, i can hear the screams from my friends and my coaches yelling at me to go faster. I make one last quick turn at the wall and swim harder, so hard that i can barely feel my legs. I look around me at the finish and see that i was the only one there. That was because i was the only one done.

"You did amazing Lyza!" My friends all said as they embraced me in a hug.
"Thank you, I'm gonna go talk to coach Erin and coach Heather, I'll be back in a second." I smiled.

"You did so good!" Coach heather said and gave me a quick side hug.
"Yea, you did great. That was the fastest 100 I've seen from you all season!" My other coach , Erin, said.

"Lyza!! Come on, we gotta get to school. We're late." Yelled my mom from downstairs.

I was up very late last night doing my homework. I didn't have any time yesterday because of my swim meet. I could've done it Friday night.... I just chose not to.

I looked to my left at my alarm clock. It was almost 7:15 and i had to be at school and in class before 7:35 or I'd be tardy.

I hopped out of bed and put on a pair of leggings and threw on an old swim sweatshirt that was on my bedroom floor. Then, i went to the bathroom and washed my face and brushed my teeth and my hair. I then put my hair into a ponytail and walked back into my room where i put on my black nike tennis shoes and grabbed my backpack.

"It snowed pretty bad last night, I'm never going to get to work on time," my mom said to herself when she started the car.
"Sorry, i was up late last night, i should've done my homework Friday night." I said as i could feel the car slide on the road underneath us.

"I love you, have a good day at school today."
"Love you too, see you later." I told my mom quickly. Then i ran upstairs to class and sat down in my Spanish class right as the bell rang.

Hi guys !! This is my first ever story on here. Don't worry, Taylor will come in soon. I just wanted to introduce Lyza to you guys and give you a little glimpse into her life.
