I wake up to a strong, pericing stream of sunlight, shining brightly into my deep,cat-like  green eyes. I am instantly hit with the empty warmth of Dylan's body and the absense of his strawberry scent. I roll over to see I'm lying in my own bed, alone...He must have left already. 
                              I lie onto my back and stare up at the pale, white ceilling that covers my room. I find myself smilling like an idiot as the certain events of last night trail through my mind. I shouldn't like Dylan, I shouldn't think of him like this but I do and I can't help it. He makes me feel happy, angry, confused, excited and nervous all at the same time and I find myself admiring that instead of dreading it. 
                              I'm cut off with my thoughts by a loud, marimba tone going off that is my phone. I roll over onto my side, so that I'm facing my nightstand and see that it is Holland who is calling me. I lazily pick up my phone and mangage to croack out a "Hello" in my awful morning voice. "Oh my god Ava! You'll never believe what just happened!" Holland squeals into the phone. I open my eyes wider, suddenly more interested in the excitement in her voice. "Hmmm let me guess? You got a new hand bag?" I say sarcastically and giggle the slightest bit. "I said you wouldn't beileve it...anyone would believe I got a new hand bag!" She snaps but shows hints of laughter in her voice. "Okay, Okay whatever just tell me! The suspence is a killer!" There is a small pause into the phone for a few seconds until Holland screams out sudden news. "Dylan freaking O'Brien has an actual real life girlfriend!" Holland squeals with clear excitement buzzing in her voice. "Oh." Is all I manage to get out. Questions where pounding in my head, tears sting my eyes and confusion takes over. "Oh? Ava Dylan hasn't had a girlfriend for 2 years and 'Oh' is all you say?" Holland says, sounding slightly frustrated with my response. "Uh I mean who is it?" I say, trying as hard as I can not to show in my voice that I'm not exactly thrilled by the new information. "Sophie Woods." Holland replys is a simple and more clamer voice then earlier. My heart sinks, not Sophie woods...anyone but her. Sophie Woods is the prettiest human being that will ever walk the earth. She started modelling at the age of 7 and her dad is a million air. Sophie is the absolute most popular girl in the school and she utterly hates me with a passion because 4 years ago I accidentally spilt my orange juice on her and made her 'hair frizzy' (Which in all honesty, her hair is always frizzy.) Ever since that day she's made my life a living hell, over something so stupid....gee that girl will hold a grudge. The worst part is, is that Dylan knew this and yet he picked her over me! "I have to go!" I say quickly throught the phone to Holland and hang up before I can here her reply.
                              I jump out of my bed, run down the stairs and out the door in my pjs. Not even bothering to lock the house I run and run and run. I have no idea why exactly i'm running but it somehow feels like I'm running from all the problems I have going on in my life. I run into the woods, located a couple hundred metres from my house and I fumble onto my knees and catch my breath. The enormous sky rumbles loudly and rain begins to pour down from the dark, grey sky. Finally letting out all my emotions, I begin to cry. I cry over Dylan, Sophie, stress of school, parents always being away and just how lonley I really am. I bring my knees to my chest and curl up into a ball and sob into my knees. I never knew how much emotions where bubbling up inside of me. inevitably I knew Dylan was going to get a girlfiriend soon but a small part of me hoped it was going to be me.
                              I eventually stop crying and rest my head against a tall tree. A wave of cold air brushes by, lightly touching the apples of my cheeks and sending a strong shiver down my spine. My teeth begin to chatter and my clothes become eventually drentched by the rain. I find myself feezing and lose any kind of energy to push myself up to go home. The clouds are a dark, mystic grey and the rain drops sting my body as they make contact with my skin and I let out a loud, painful groan. Alone, hopeless and scared once again.
                              My vision begins to become hazy and blurry but the last thing  see is a figure of a boy running up to me, Dylan. Deathly black spots fill my eyes and I see nothing but pure darkness.
