I lay back in my bed as I turn out the lights to head to bed. Or what is what I call bed. Several pieces of clothes and a thin blanket over myself to keep warm as my eyes gaze upwards revealing the stars I was under. I lifted my arm ,pointing, and dragged my finger over the stars creating a constillation.Left, Up, Right, Down, Left, Right, Down, Up. I smiled, slowly lowering my arm as I have made my constillation. "Reckless.." I whispered as my eyes grew heavy and my imagination wild. I fought off the sleep for a few seconds longer before I drifted off as my mind drew more figures on the stars.

~Welcome to my mind~

Brrrriiiiiinnnngggggg!!
Aww not now....three more minutes... I stayed still, my ears alerted by the loud ringing of bells and shuffling of people. I tried my best to stay asleep and not ruin my perfect dream. Just drift back to my other life...this one dosent need me. I begin my decent to the world I created in my head and color began to appear. Yes.. "Hey! Kat get up! Its time for class." I was violently shaken awake as my world began to crumble away. Noo... I slowly opened my hazel eyes as the daylight blinded me reminding me of my painful reality. I was in school again. "Awwww, mate, why cant you just let me sleep thourgh school..." I whined as I slowly lifted my gaze to the curly hair girl, Ash. One of my only friends in school. "I'm not letting you sleep here you can sleep in class. Now go I gotta go too." She hastily grabbed her books from the table. "Okay okay..." I slipped on my backpack but stayed seated. I looked at my watch still half dazed from my slumber. 7:45. I rubbed my eyes. "Ill go..just..5 more minutes.."I yawned dropping my head on the table.
WHACK!
My head banged the table creating a hard thud. I reared my head back up and glared at her as I held the back of my head. "In. Class." Ash glared back and quickly walked/run to the now closing school door. Fine...class. I looked at my watch again. 7:47. I have roughly 3 minutes to get to the last closing school door. I sighed as my now throbbing head tried to think of the quickest way to get to class. Window...no...teachers can see...bathroom window. My brain was being a turtle but got a plan very quickly. The throbbing has subsided and I was now fully awake and alert. I glanced at my watch again. 7:48. 2 minutes...bathroom window. I can make it. I pushed myself off the table and looked around the small outer campus around it. To my convenience, there was one right behind the bushes set on the side of the building. Score! Pushing the side of the window it cracked...well it might be a little squeeze but I can fit..maybe. I shrugged to myself as i stuffed my backpack in first and then...myself.
~5 minutes later~
Maybe I can sleep here...i have gotten myself stuck. My hoodie had gotten caught on the outside of the window and was holding my upside down as my legs were trying thre best to reach the floor again. Imagine a see saw...but add a short, short brown haired Mexican in a dark blue hoodie with black jeans with legs in the air and face against a tile bathroom wall. Yup. That's me. In my demise, i glanced at my watch in front of me. 7: 53. Dang, I have 7 minutes till class actually starts. Welp....Ash is going to kill me. I hang limply as I close my eyes hoping for a miracle. But that only happens in books and movies as if that would ever happen. I glanced around the bathroom for as much as I could see. My backpack was in the middle of the bathroom. Its useless. Faucets, sinks. Not useful. Bathroom stalls all opened. No one here. I sighed as i go limp and numb again. Ash is gonna skin me alive. I imagined her pulling my skin back like a banana peel. Simple and easy..... Simple!! My head snapped down. Thunk! Straight into the tile wall. Owww...bad. I...carefully.. looked down at my stuck hoodie. Hoodie sorry. I grabbed the wall as much as I can and pulled myself towatds the ground. Using gravity to my advantage, I pulled on my hoodie finally hearing a tear.Riiiippp! I flop to the tiled floor as the window teared thourgh my hoodie. Aww..why my hoodie of all things..I quickly pulled off my hoodie and tied it around my wrist hiding the ripped in my precious hoodie. I glanced at my watch. 7:59. Close enough. I slung my backpack over my shoulders and ran to the class. Well I guess I won't sleep this class time....
