it's monday morning and i'm exhausted. i climb/fall out of bed and slug my way to my school uniform. i chuck my black cardigan over my shirt, unzipping it slightly and slipping it over my shoulder, exposing my white collared shirt. i aggressively brush my hair. i chew on my food slowly. i brush my teeth, dozing off. i wash my face with cold water and dry it off with a towel. i stayed up almost all night listening to music and thinking about the blonde boy. i don't know what's more exhausting, the fact that i don't even know his name or the fact that i can't keep a crush for a week straight. pfft, noah? who even is that. i've moved on now. 

i bring my long hair to the front and roll up my skirt, hoping to see blondie on the bus. i slip my shoes on as i notice the plaster on my knee and giggle to myself.

i hop onto the bus and run to the back. i listen to "Brazil" by Declan Mckenna in my headphones and look out at the blazing sun.

i'm getting closer and closer to school and there's no sign of blonde boy OR lulu. normally she texts me in the morning.

i thank the bus driver and hop off, frantically calling lulu because i can't be alone in the mornings.

and each time it went to her voicemail.
i walk extremely slow through the alleyways leading up to school. and i walk slow through the gates. and i walk slow through the corridors. i need to look busy, so i look down at my phone. i felt somebody walking
beside me but i couldn't look up. the bell rings and i slowly start to walk to form. i turn around and notice noah walking infront of me. thank god i didn't look up earlier, i cant stand to see his gorgeous face.

my phone dings and i look down to see lulu texting me.

"i'm staying off school today, btw."

my heart drops. she does realise i have like no other friends, right? and we have pe today. oh my gosh. this is genuinely the worst.

i sit down in form and talk to my friend, grace.

"we have pe today, right?" i ask.

"yea.. badminton."

"oh god. lulu isn't here today as well."

"really?, neither is lily. maybe we can partner up." she says, smiling.

i nod and smile back, feeling more relaxed now.

my face drops as soon as i look at my timetable.

"what?" grace asks.

"oh um nothing." i fake smile at her.

we have spanish today. and i have to face noah.
this is so f*cking annoying. i know i'm really dramatic but honestly i've just had enough of him. the fact he made me fall over in front of blondie. how dare HE!?!!??!
