"It's Tom." I mutter.

"Chill, he won't come up to us, just try to ignore him. Don't stress about it!"
"How can you be so sure and keep your voice down." I say quietly again, and as that she walks off toward where Tom was, for fucks sake Emma, what the fuck am I supposed to do. I stand there for a good a few minutes debating wether or not I go after her. I got out of the anxiety that filled me and bought up the confidence to go look for her, I forgot how big this shop is. I walked down the next isle with my head looking at the floor, and then bumping into someones arm.
"Oh sorry, my fault." I say looking up from the floor to see Tom's face looking at mine.
"Oh, it's okay Avery,"
"No, I wasn't looking where I was going,"

"I mean, it's not a problem, if you were looking at the floor, you were looking at the floor."
"Well, I've lost my friend somewhere." I say.

"AV, WHERE ARE YOU!" I heard Emma raising her voice while coming down the isle Tom and I were in. "Oh there you are." She said walking toward us.
"Who's this?" Tom asks
"That's my friend, Emma."
"Hi, I'm Tom. Avery's professor."
"Right, she told me about you."

"Did she now?" He said looking at me, my cheeks slightly going pink.
"Yeah, she said she likes english. That's all."
"Ah so all good things I hope for whatever she has said about me. But I better be off now. See you in class tomorrow Av." He said using Emma's nickname for me and walking off to pay for things.

"You literally were blushing over him." She said as we walked off.
"Not over him, at your comment." I correct.
"Yeah, yeah." She said walking off to pay as I waited outside for her, god it's freezing, I only have a jumper and pyjama trousers. I saw Tom walk out and give me a little nod as he walked to the left. A few minutes after she came out of the shop.
"Ready?" She aske me coming out with her bag.
"Yeah, let's go." I say walking infront of her back to the dorm block.

We arrive back, I turned my laptop on as Emma sat with me.
"What do you want to watch then?" I asked her as I pressed onto a website.
"I don't know. You can pick."
"I can pick? You never let me pick any movie when we do this. Are you feeling okay?" I say and then asking her seeing as she was acting a bit off when we first got inside.
"I'm okay Av. Nothing is up, I promise you can pick." She said getting some food out of the bag. I picked Romeo & Juliet, the one with Leonardo DiCaprio in.
"Can we watch this?" I ask her.
"Sure." She said leaning on my shoulder as I turned it on. "I've never actually watched this before." She muttered.
"Me neither."

We were half way through the movie, Emma has fallen asleep. I, however, I'm wide awake. This won't end well tomorrow. My English class is at 12 but goes on until 3, we get a break at 1 and then finish off the lesson so hopefully I wake up for it considering it was now 11:30pm. I had to try and get Emma off of my bed, it isn't big enough for us to both sleep in. I slowly moved away and paused the movie as she flopped on the bed. I need to try and carry her bridal style. Right okay. I put my arm under her legs and my other arm under her neck and heaved her up. I didn't realise how heavy she was until I was standing there with her in my arms. I walked slow over to her bed and put her down carefully and put her blanket over her. I then go back to my bed and attempt to get all the crap off and get comfortable. I turn the movie back on and I get another call, I ignore it because I know it wouldn't be mum because she'll be asleep. The phone rang again, and again. Until I paused the movie again and picked up the phone. It was Tom.
