As the end of period 5 ends and the end of day bell goes I walk out of my last class and head to my locker to grab my things. I walk down the halls when I realise it's chucking down with rain. I put my bag over my head and ram through the asphalt, out of the gates and to the bus shelter. When I put my bag on the seat and fix my hair in an see one of those new boys running through the rain towards the bus shelter. He gets to the shelter and is drenched. I chuckle. "hey" I say "Luke is it?" I ask "yeah. Zoe?" He asks "yep thats me" i giggle. "do you catch this bus" I ask him. "Ah yeah my parents wanted to drive me so school and I wanted to take the bus back, so here I am" he says " do you live in Goonelabagh?" I ask "yeah do you" he replies"yeah" I say " can we walk home tog-" he gets cut off by the sound of my boyfriend yelling "ZOE💛" I yell back "JAKEY💙" and he walks past Luke and gives me a hug and a kiss. "hey baby what's up?" He asks "not much how about you" I ask twirling my hair. "im catching your bus for rugby training!" He says smiling. I give him a passionate kiss and when we break apart out bus is here. He intertwines our fingers and we get on the bus. When we find a seat we sit down(again duh) and start to talk like a love soaked couple. Every now and then we will take the sneaky kissing selfie. But I get the strange feeling of being watched. I look around and suddenly join eyes with the guy across the aisle. Luke. I quickly look away and start to talk to jake. When we arrive home i say bye to Luke and he walks home. I walk hand in hand with jake down to his rugby training. Halfway through when he had a water break I went home. "afternoon honey!" my mum yells from the kitchen "hey mum" I say walking into the cupboard. I got out some cheese Doritos and spicy salsa and went to start my homework. I put on Taylor Swift on shuffle and sat down at my desk and started my English homework. After 2 hours of essays and studying and assignments I had finished the chips and the salsa was gone. My mum called me in for dinner. "Can you set the table please darling?" My mum asks me "ugh can't Ben do it?" I groan "no Zoe your doing it he did it yesterday" she flatly says not even looking at me. I grab the tablecloth and put it over the table then I grab the cutlery and plates and set them up. I hear a knock on the door. Who could that be? Then I realise my mum swapped the old cutlery for the new stuff and fixed the table with napkins. We must be having guests. i open the door and my jaw practically touches the floor. Infront of me was luke and his mum and dad. "hello!" The woman says "is this Wendy and Zane Williams's house?" She asks. "it sure is" I say "would you like to come in?" I ask smiling. "yes please" she says. "Oh and by the way I am Luke's mum, Liz and this is my husband Andrew." she says politely as I shake her hand. I let go and shake Andrew's hand and then they start to come in. Luke and I hung out in my room for a while after dinner and then they went home at about 12:45. I got out of my uniform and got into my pjamas. I grab my phone and snuggled up in bed. I flicked through Instagram and Facebook then turned out the lights at about 2:31am.

All through the night I'm tossing and turning but I just can't seem to sleep. at about 4:54 I get up to get a glass of water. When I get to the water fountains(one of those 'neverfail' ones) I push down the toggle for cold water. about 10 seconds later it ran out. I walked back into my room thinking half a pint of water is enough. But of course it's not. So I end up having to get Tap water and ice cubes. This is bad at 5:00am because(a) the tap makes a really loud sound and (b) when you open and close the freezer it makes a screeching sound. So I end up waking my mum up. And she chucks a spaz.
