Prince of Autumn - What a Day (unfinished)

>Today was gonna be great!
>No..
>Today was going to be AWESOME! It was finally buddy day! The one day where a few seniors from Canterlot High would pick a fifth grader to be with them! For a whole day, no less.
>Throwing yourself out of bed, you giggled to inwardly, thinking of all the awesome things you would get to do with your buddy.
>Maybe you'll get a smart person and go to the library. Or a guy that will let you play some of his videogames. You might even have a sleepover with your buddy!
>After putting on some clothes, you run downstairs and get your shoes, a large grin glued to your face.
>"I see someone's exited for today." Your mother says as she descends the stairs, rubbing sleep from her eyes.
>You nod your head a bunch.
"I sure am, mom! I'm gonna get picked and then I'm gonna have fun and play videogames and stay up late and...." >You ramble on.
>Chuckling, your mom rubs the top of your head.
>"Well then. That sounds like a lot to do. You're going to need a good breakfast"
>The sudden rumble in your stomach confirms this.

>Taking her hand off your head, your mom walks over the fridge
>"What sounds good, Nonny? I'm thinking bacon and eggs."
"Yeah mom! That's the best!" >you say, looking expectantly at the frying pan
>"Well then. I'll get started"
>Soon, the heavenly smells of your soon-to-be breakfast filled the kitchen, driving you mad with hunger.
>As you watched the fat drip off the bacon and listened to the eggs sizzle you thought about what happen today
>The teachers had been over this many times; 6 seniors from Canterlot High, chosen by their principal, would come to your school and choose one fifth grader.
>It wouldn't be random selection. They were going to be shown report cards and the teachers would tell them who was the best.
>Ever since you heard that, you made sure to do your best at everything; turning in your homework, being a good friend to the staff, not acting up in class.
>This was important to you that you get this
>lost in thought, you almost jump out of your skin when you mom shakes you
>"Come on, Nonny. Eat up, get your backpack, and then we can get to school so you can have an awesome day with your high school buddies."
>Smiling you walk to the table and eat your breakfast as fast as you could, despite warnings that you'd choke.
>After dumping your plate into the sink, you rush to your backpack, swinging it over one shoulder.
>You run back to your mom, sporting a huge grin
"Let's go!"
