What I imagine Sebastian looking like. Please comment who you think of when imagining the characters whether it's an actor,model, singer, or whatever.
The alarm fills the room, They're ain't no rest for the Wicked playing as Hana and I groan and get out of the bed. She rubs her eyes as I stand up and stretch and scowls at my alarm." Why do you get up so early?"
"Because I have to exercise, shower, then usually pick you up. A lot a stuff to do for me in the mornings." I stretch out my back before rolling my shoulders." I'm going down to the punching bag."
"Can I come?" She asks and gets out of bed as well, her curly hair fanning her face, most of it out of her bun.
I nod before going out my room and making my way to the car garage, where the punching bag is." Yeah just don't try to distract me. I only have thirty minutes to workout." She nods as we go through the inside door to the garage and stares at my equipment in awe. Punching bags, weights, yoga mats, cyclists, and pull up bars are all in the left corner of the garage as moms car sits on the right. I go over and pick up my boxing gloves before putting them on and going to the punching bag. I jump on my feet before attacking the bag, hitting it as fast as my arms will let me as I dodge fake punches and circle around it. I let out grunts as the force of my punches go up my arms, and keep hitting harder with every punch. I begin to kick at it and twirl around, doing any punch that I can think of that I may need to do in a fight and I begin to hit the bag with both arms repeatedly." Count how many I get okay?" Hana bids as she trains in on my arms and I throw punch after punch and only use the ache in my biceps and shoulders as motivation to keep on going. My fists hit the bag at lighting speed and I grunt and lock my jaw as I keep going. My heart slowly starts to pick up, causing my morning tiredness to go away as sweat begins to form on my neck. Hana raises her eyebrows and I look away from her back to the bag, locking my eyes on the Tapout logo and lose myself as I throw punch after punch. I let out a huff of air and wipe the sweat off my hairline and look at Hana." How many?"
"Three hundred and sixty. Six punches per second."
I grin to myself and roll my shoulders before taking my gloves off and jumping onto the punching bag and wrapping my legs around it. I lower myself and raise myself back up, doing sit ups and place my hand over my head. Hana watches me and I see her lips moving as she counts my number of sit ups and I begin to put more effort into them. The bag jerks slightly with every sit up and I begin to use the swinging motion as help with coming back up, and ignore the burn of my abs as I keep on going. I take deep breaths and let them out slowly before doing the last one I think I can possibly do, and slide back down on the ground." How many?"
"Fifty nine. Very close to one sit up per second." She blinks slowly at me before squinting and I glance at her and away, creeped out by the look she's giving me." Who knew my best friend was secretly a fitness maniac. Do you workout everyday? How long have you've been doing this? This fitness craze? And how come you never told me? Especially about the ab thing. Was that why you wouldn't undress in front of me anymore?"

"Yes I work out everyday. Working out every single day? About eight months. I never told you because it would've been weird to. We never talked about fitness so why would I just randomly tell you I have abs one day? And yes actually it's why I stopped. This image." I pull up my pajama shirt to show my abs." Doesn't really fit me does it? As you're best friend?" She shakes her head and I nod before placing it back down." I was afraid you'd start treating me different. Like I'm someone else with this new image. I'm not. I'm more dangerous yes but I'm still Asher. The girls who's sassy and has a dirty mouth at home but if picked on and straight to business at school."
She nods and gives me a small smile." I see where your coming from and honestly I agree about that being my reaction... Though I'm probably still going to have those thoughts from time to time. Like how you could become on of the populars-" she stops my protest with a shake of hands and says." I know, I know, you wouldn't want that. I'm just saying. Now. Didn't you say you only had thirty minutes?"
"Shit." I curse before running back up to my room and grabbing anything to wear before going inside of my bathroom and stripping down to get in a shower. Just quicken yourself in there Asher.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------/--------------/-----------------------
My hairs in a messy bun, as I wear black skinny jeans, a white T-shirt, and red suspenders. I smile slightly before grabbing my book bag and walking down the stairs where Hana is talking to mom over coffee." I know! I was surprised to when I saw them. I told her I should start working out a long with her and her father."
I roll my eyes and grab an apple out of the fruit bowl on the table and sit beside Hana." Dad said he'd be here in three minutes and for us to be waiting outside."
Hana nods and drinks the last of her coffee before sitting the cup in the sink." See you later. Oh! And is okay if Asher stays on night with me tonight?"
Mom smiles brightly and nods." Of course. Does Asher still have clothes over there? If not I could drop some off at your house today."
I pause and chew my apple before answering," No. Bring me pajamas, jeans, a T-shirt, and bra and panties." I eat the last of my apple and throw the core into the garbage can my wipe my fingers in my jeans." Well, call you when I get to Hana's. Dad sounded like he was in a hurry."
Mom waves at us as we leave the kitchen, and Hana pulls up her jeans again. Well more like my jeans- that being the reasons why they're to long and she had to roll them up a couple of times just to get them to stop tripping her as she walked." I was thinking we could go to the pond at my lake house." She says excitedly and I shrug.
"Speaking of lake houses. Are you up for mine the net break? Dad and I were talking about it last weekend but I forgot until just now."
"Yes! I love that place! Remember when we went in third grade?" I nod and she looks at my book bag before rolling her eyes." How many of those things do you have?"

"A lot." I answer simply as the roar of dad's engine becomes audible and seconds later his car pulls into the driveway. Hana and I run to it, her getting in the back and I take the passenger seat before shutting the door and buckling up.
"Sorry girls. No days off today and nothing exciting." Dad says as he puts the car in reverse and begins to back out of our driveway." Oh! And thanks for remembering where I had left the car in the woods. I had been searching for this thing for three hours before I called."
I roll my eyes as Hana smiles and replies," No problem Richard."
He chuckles before reaching into his pocket and handing me a ten." Here's for lunch. Hana do you need money?" He gives her no time to reply before handing her a ten as well." Did you ever get those assignments yesterday Asher?"
"Yeah mom came and picked me up."
He nods and taps is finger on his steering wheel." Look. I know you don't like the Cole kid so you don't have to talk to him at school if you don't want. I told him that yesterday as well. For him to not bother you or distract you at school so you don't have to worry about him okay? Though, I do have to say give him a chance. Not dating wise- but as friends. Yes he may say some crude things but it's in his nature- he was raised the way I was. To not care what people think, they're feelings, and just care about yourself." He looks at me and I nod, acting as if I understand when I'm letting it all go in one ear and out the other." Anyways. I'll be at school to pick you all up, at three fifteen."
We nod as he pulls into the school's parking lot, and parks it in a parking space." See you dad." I say and give him a small kiss on the cheek and hop out of the car before letting Hana out. She gives dad a small wave before shutting the door and we begin to walk to the high school.
"If Cole asks to sit at the table i'm letting him." She says and I scowl at her as we pass the devil's car." What? You need a social life Asher. Not a gigantic one but you need to start communicating with more people. You'll regret it in the future of you don't." I roll my eyes and run my hair through my long hair that's down today. My heads been hurting recently from the braids and ponytails, and considering I don't want school to be miserable, I'll leave it in a hairstyle that won't cause headaches." You look pretty today by the way."
"Thanks, I guess." Not believing her an ounce. I'm wearing suspenders for criss sakes. Nothing special about them." And you do to." She smiles and looks down at the green blouse I had loaned her along with a pair of old skinny jeans and combat boots.
"Well they are your clothes..." She teases and rolls her eyes as she opens the front entrance doors.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------/--------------/------------------------
I smile as we enter the lunch room, excitement going through me at the thought of Cole sitting with Asher." What are you smiling about?" Daniel asks me and gives me a small kids on my temple, when Asher begins to walk off to the lunch line.
"Something very very special." I say back to him and smile up at him, which he gives me one back after." Asher."
He lifts an eyebrow and I giggle and begin to go behind Asher. She awaits down and picks up her root beer and wipes the bottle on her jeans before going to the sale line. She studies all the food, searching through all the sandwiches and other meals for people to buy instead of having the school's lunch." Oh- you stayed with Asher last night didn't you?" He says and reaches in his back pocket." I'll pay for you're lunch."
"Oh no, it's okay. Asher's dad gave me money this morning." I tell him and take out the ten. I glance at Asher to see her frowning at a small sand which and talking to the lunch lady." Are we still going to the movies tonight? Asher's staying with me at my house today."
He pauses and glances away before nodding," I guess..."
"I'm not going with you two don't worry. I'm going to stay at her home and watch her Netflix." I jump and lay my hand on my chest before turning to Asher, who come up out of no where... She bites her lip and squints at the food again. She sighs before grabbing a fur bowl with fruit dip and going to the paying line. I hide my partially blushing cheeks and grab a water and some potato wedges and going in behind her. She looks out the window, at the small droplets of rain hit the window in a drizzle and she says to no one,"I'm going to the library today." I squint and nod and look back at Daniel who's standing behind me, holding a burger and Pepsi.
I frown slightly before turning back to her and pouting." But Cole won't find you in there. Stay in here."
"That's just a bonus." She mumbles and hands the lunch lady her ten dollar bill and waits for the change." Anyways I fell like taking a quick nap. I didn't get much sleep because of last night."
I smile at that and give the woman my money for my food and glance back at Daniel. He smiles down at me and I smile back and I notice Asher stiffen slightly beside me.
"Well look at the beauty that decided to show up today."
We all turn to see Cole standing behind is, his blue eyes trained directly on Asher. He smiles slightly as he glances over her and puts his hands in his pocket. He wears a black leather jacket, black T-shirt, and black ripped jeans with Nike sneakers. I gulp and look between the two, jumping slightly on my feet. Asher rolls her eyes and begins to slip past him when he grabs her arm, stopping her from moving." Kitten, I actually have a purpose here. The librarian teacher wants you." Asher jerks her arms out of his hold and scowls before strutting off, Cole watching her as she walks." I wonder if she knows she needs me as well." He mummers and begins to walk after her, the people he passes going silent as they stare after him in awe and jealousy.
I turn to Daniel and do a little dance." I'm going to be the godmother of their children. Oh! Maybe if they have a girl they could name her Sasher. Or soul? Oh my god yes." I walk to the table, bouncing my feet with the fact that those two are going to be stuck together for the rest of the day on my mind. Thank you fate!
