Ding-ding-dinggggg ding-ding-dinggggg

That's the first sound I hear waking up from my peaceful sleep. I tap on my side table hoping I tap the snooze button, but no luck. Great. I forgot I put my phone on my desk so I would actually get up in the morning and not press snooze.

Oh, past Ashley why did you have to be so smart and try and ruin my morning!  

I got up and turned my alarm off, then I looked at what time it was, it said 5:07. WHAT? How the hell did my alarm ring around five when I put the alarm for seven? This does not just happen and then I saw a pink sticky note on my side table. On it it in the worst hand writing read;

Happy Bryan's home surprise;)

 I haven't even seen him yet and he's already ruined my morning! Furious I went out to my terrace connected to my room.

 Since we were next door and Bryan's room was right across from mine, we had a connected terrace a barrier of sticks and since we could still see each other's side we put long and green plants, which I personally liked it gave the terrace a perfect touch to the bean bags and low comfy chairs I got.

This is how I imagine the terrace to look like with Bryan's terrace connected and lots of plants covering the wooden barrier, as well as some pillows, bean bags and comfy low rise seats instead of that fancy summer furniture.

I ran to the plants and lightly shoved them to the side so I tell Bryan that he keeps messing with the wrong person, but when I looked all around his terrace he wasn't there. And neither were his soda cans or drying clothes out there. In fact he had all these weights and gym equipment like dumbbells, and a machine you use to lift yourself up. Oh and don't forget about the basketballs, there were five scattered around the terrace. Why did he have this stuff now, or is this not his room anymore. I was so confused on how and when this happened. I was standing there for a while looking at all the new stuff, but he still didn't come out. 

He's sleeping peacefully after ruining my sleep, he knew I couldn't go back to sleep once I was awake how could he!

After sitting on my bed for twenty minutes I got up and decided to go get a good breakfast from a bakery and some coffee, might as well have a fresh warm breakfast with my coffee now that I'm up. I put on my long hoodie which almost went to my knees and got my car keys. I reached for the house keys I had and went to the door. Yes my room was on the top floor and so I was able to leave the house from my room. I locked the door behind me and waited for the lift to come to my floor, after pressing the button.

After I horribly drive to the nearest bakery and get my coffee I then go back home. I really did suck at driving, and there was no way I'd been able to drive to school everyday so I really did have no choice other than going to school with Bryan.

I sipped on my coffee entering the from my room again since I didn't think I'd be able to make it up to my room without my sister hearing the door creak right across the place. I went downstairs decided to call Talia she'd called me last night but mom said that there was no chance I was going to talk to Talia at a restaurant. 

Talia and I have been friends since almost forever, we were in second grade when she came to the school and we both just clicked. 

the phone rang a couple times and then she picked up "Ash! why are you calling me at three in the morning" She whined sleepily 

"Wake up sleepy head, it's not three in the morning but seven, and summer's over" 

"It's seven I wake up at eight Ashley! why are you taking my one peaceful hour of sleep, and before you say it, whatever that it is you want to talk about at seven in the morning is NOT more important than my beauty sleep, understood! Ok now I'm going to sleep bye love you"

And that was Talia, she didn't let me explain the crisis I'm going to be in and have already been in since yesterday. Now I really knew there's no getting out of this.

Two chapters in one day!

Do you think Ashley's overreacting? I can't blame her for hating him. I mean they haven't even met after three months and he's already ruined the first day of school for her without even being there.
