Chapter 6: The Morning After (Hers)

Goooood Morning it is 6:00am and this is the PST wake up crew. Today will be a nice day in the mid 80s…..

Haily groaned as her brain registered that the incessant noise next to her was her alarm clock, and she had to get up for school. She rolled over and hit the snooze bar for 10 more minutes of sleep.

"Nah uh young lady. Get up now. I don't want you being late for school again… once is enough this week. Now get up!"

Haily, still being half in the dream world, and not realizing who she was talking to muttered, "Fuck off I'll get up in 10 minutes".

That did it. Haily's mom on the outside seemed sweet, like the ideal mother. All of here friends loved her mom, but Haily knew the truth. Her mom had a very short temper and an attitude that you wouldn't want to go anywhere near. She had a low tolerance for `rudeness' and was constantly on Haily to clean up her language. Haily has a very colorful vocabulary and usually lets it all out- with her friends she doesn't need to worry, but around her mom, she's constantly biting her tongue. On a good day she only gets lectured 3 times, but on a bad day it's so much that you don't want to go near her for fear of losing your head.

"HAILY CRYSTAL ANASTASIA, I will not have you speak to me in that manner! I am your mother and you will respect me! Clean up your mouth- I don't care how tired you are, get over it!"

"Sorry but I warned ya", Haily said and pointed to the sign hanging on the outside of her door that reads "I am so not a morning person…One big Fucking ray of sunshine ain't I?"

"Just get up and we'll discuss this later", Haily's mom replies before walking out of her room to go think about a fit punishment.

At least ten songs in a row, only on 97.5 PST

Haily looks at her alarm and smacks the `alarm off' switch, before sitting up and scowling over her cheerful wakeup.

"Damn…aren't I lucky! What a wonderful morning, and I just got up! I can tell already that today is going to be just so peachy. Grrr and my dreams last night were the best I've had in a long time, they alone should have ensured a good day… but noooo my mother just has to go and ruin that as soon as I wake up. They were so nice though, all about Sesshoumaru and me- ugh I wish, that would never happen. That reminds me… was last night real? I'll have to try mentally calling to him later like he said, but now I get to go deal with my mother, how lovely!

That's another thing about Haily that makes her unique and adds to her personality, her sarcasm. Haily is one of the most sarcastic people you will ever meet. Sometimes she can be so poker-faced that you think she's serious. She has a dry sense of humor that adds to it. She shares that in common with Kate, but she can also be just plain silly, so she can still fit in with her other friends like Joan.

After calming herself down a bit, she got up to go start her boring morning routine- get up, make bed, get dressed, eat breakfast, brush teeth, wash face, style hair, and finally apply makeup. Haily goes through this same routine every morning and it really does get quite repetitive. Just to add a little excitement in she sometimes listens to the radio or a cd that she and Kate burnt. All the while she hopes that someday her routine will change for the better, and become more interesting.

"Fuck, announcements are taking forever today, I don't think they'll ever shut up. I think now may be the perfect time to try and call to Sesshoumaru, even though I bet it won't work… I bet it was just my overactive imagination or a dream."
