--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My eyes squinted into the sunlight. I groaned, and turned to face the clock. 7:00 a.m. why did I have to be up so early. I reluctantly rolled out of bed, and shuffled into the bathroom. Looking at myself in the mirror I finally realized why everyone was so afraid of me when I first woke up. My usually long black straightened hair was all over the place, my blue eyes were ice cold glaring at everyone even my reflection. Once I was done with the bathroom I went to go change but of course my annoying twin sister just had to come up to me.

"Hey Caitilyn, are you excited," Becky exclaimed. Becky and I were fraternal twins, she had dirty blonde hair with the same blue eyes. I rolled my eyes at her excitement, but then thought about what today was. Our school had somehow organized a field trip, but it wasn't your normal school field trip. This was a trip to Florida for a week to study some tropical forest,or something like that. Becky and I were chosen to be the 10 people going. I looked at my packed bags and smiled, it was going to be a fun day.

"Yeah, sure" I told Becky. We made our ways downstairs to the kitchen. The smell of bacon and waffles lead me there. Breakfast was a blur it mostly consisted of my parents hugging us then crying then repeating the process for like the entire time.

"Hey mom we'll be okay, seriously." I told them. Becky nodded beside me. My mom and dad wiped their tears and forced a smile. Dad brought us all in to one last hug than we parted. Becky and I decided to take the bus today, considering that we were going to be gone for a week. Walking into school with a bunch of excited teenagers is definitely not a good idea. Guys are chest- bumping each other. Girls are squealing like pigs and people are being shoved into one another. Suddenly I got shoved into a locker. I turned to face the one and only Brittany. Here let me give you a summary of her, she was basically the scool's slut. With brown hair and light hazel eyes she could get any guy she wants or girl. Suprisingly she got chosen to go onto the trip with us. She probably slept with the director of the trip to get in. Ugh, she's such a slut.

"Watch where your going, loser" she scoffed. I simply rolled my eyes at her then said.

"At least I'm not a whore like you." I walked to my locker, my day was already ruined. Unfortunatly Brittany was in my homeroom too, as if seeing her wasn't bad enough I had to see her first thing in the morning. Our teacher Mr. Crobbs tried calming us down unsuccessfully.

"Those of you who are going on the trip will have to report to the office now " he explained. "Unless you were chosen to go on the trip your day will be like any other day." I picked up my things and started heading out saying good-byes to my fellow classmates and teacher.

I have to admit my heart was beating crazily fast out of excitement. I saw Becky and walked over to where she was standing.
