The Perfect Storm

It was a cold rainy day as Anna walked to the school bus stop. She saw her friends Alexis and Elliot standing there waiting under a tree so they wouldn't get wet. A few other people were waiting for the bus, too. We stood there getting soaked as we watched the elementary kids walk to school. Twenty minutes later the bus was still late. One of the kids called their mom to pick them up. The mom packed most of the people waiting at the bus stop in the car but there was no more room for us, so the three friends had to stay and wait for the bus. They started getting bored. Anna started jumping around but slipped and fell and started bleeding, which was funny. She was fine. Finally after fifty minutes the bus came. Barely anyone was on the bus. The person driving was an old man and there was an old lady directing him where to go, so I couldn't blame them for being late. When we finally got to school we had to go to the front office and get a late pass. By this time most of us were soaking wet. I was really hungry because usually I have breakfast at school but since we were so late we couldn't.
