Chapter 2: Griffin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The loud, droning beep of my alarm clock drove me out of bed, groggy and almost passing out.
I trudged into the bathroom across the hall from my bedroom and got in the shower.
Stepping out after lather-ing, rinsing, and repeating, I ran my
fingers through my spiky, dark hair.
I was still tired, but the cold water made me at least
able to keep my eyes open.
Turning my gaze on the digital clock, I automatically freaked.
7:45?!
Did I sleep through my alarm or something?
Dashing across the short distance to
my room, I threw on baggy jeans and a dark gray hoodie, snatching phone and car keys from
the bedstand.
Running out the door, but feeling a lack of weight on my back, I turned back,
grabbed my drawstring bag from the bedpost.
Flying down the hall and the stairs, I caught the smell of bacon from the
kitchen.
"Griffin? Would you like some breakfast?" called my mother's voice.
"I can't, Mom," I yelled back. "I'm going to be late for class if I don't leave now. Sorry!"
I grabbed the doorknob as she replied,
"Have a good day, honey! I love you!"
"Love you, too, Mom!"
I bounded out the door and leapt into the old Mustang.
Starting the engine, I sped away.
