Celine POV

Liam comes back from the secretary looking...shocked? When the lesson ended I went to Liam who looked to be still in thought, so I ask what happened.

"Yo, everything alright?"
"Uhm yeah, why?"
"You look like you've seen a ghost" Amine chimed in
"I kind of did?" i say back
"What happened with Lara?" I ask
"So everything seemed okay until she randomly sat down and started crying, I tried cheering her up but then she just started talking about things which I couldn't really understand cause I was still in shock."

 "Lol it be like that some times, but don't worry about her I'll talk with her" i said while amine was just looking at Liam as if he just told him he was a ghost

_-in the evening-_

I knock on Lara's door and stand like the standing emoji waiting for someone to open the door
Lara opens the door, I drop everything and hug her tightly.

after about a few seconds we let go. I grabbed my stuff and entered her house.
W

e sit down in the couch that's in her room and I see that Lara is trying to keep her tears of falling so I just tell her it's okay to cry and she lets go of her tears that have been piling up.
I turn my phone off since I want to be with Lara tonight without getting distracted by notifications.

"So movie?" I ask when Lara has calmed down
"Yeah, can we watch Dead Poets Society?"

"Sure, oh also where are the snacks?"
"

They're in the kitchen I'll get them"
"No, you stay there just tell me where in the kitchen"
"Sure they're in the pantry which is the door close to the fridge"
"Alright, I'll get you some water too"
"Why?"
"Oh so like my mom found out that water like calms you down when you cry n shet so yeh"
"Oh, how?"
"When I was a lil child she didn't always know if I was thirsty or something else so she always gave me water first and that seemed to calm me down apparently"
"Huh, cool"
"Yeah but I'm going to get the snacks now"
"I'll put the movie on then"

We watched the movie and Lara seemed to get a bit better, after the movie I asked if she wanted to go on a little walk. We got ready and went to a peaceful little abandoned shed not to far from her house. It was decorated with fairy lights that work on solar panels on the inside, it also had a little couch with blankets and many pillows. Lara told me this is where she sometimes comes when she doesn't want to be at home. I gave her an understanding look and went inside, It was surprisingly warm inside. I sat down on the couch and look at Lara who was watering the little plants that have grown between the wooden floor panels. I secretly took a picture of her and then went to her, hugging her. I then looked outside and saw the sun setting so I took my phone out for a few beautiful pictures and then went outside with Lara and just sat on the ground, in a comfortable silence, looking at the sun set, just enjoyjng each others company.

After the sun set we decided to go back to Lara's house cause it was getting colder and we didn't bring our jackets. Once we entered her house I met her mother and we began talking, after a few minutes of her mom begging us to bake with her we had no choice then to accept it and bake with her.

"So what are we making?" I ask
"We're making cinnamon rolls!" Lara's mom says with a big smile
"Ok, I don't know how to make that yet!" I say exited to make cinnamon rolls
"Alright now girls wash your hands and get yourselves an apron." Lara's mom says while putting her apron on
we wash our hands, put our apron on and start baking. After a few hours of baking and chatting we sit down and eat our cinnamon rolls.

After eating our delicious cinnamon rolls we cleaned the kitchen, showered, and went to sleep. the next day we got into new clothes and went to Antwerp, Lara and I wanted to go thrifting for a while now so we decided what better day than today. We got on our bus where Lara saw an old classmate of hers and she tried to hide from them but didn't succeed. Getting off our bus we ate an ice-cream since it was 30°C, after that we got to our train and arrived at Antwerp.

"So, we have 72 euros, where do we go first?" Lara asks while looking around
"Google says there's one one Jouwmoeder-street, the thrift store there closes the earliest."
"Right then lets go!"

We spend 60 euros in total, of course not just the first stop, we did go to others. After getting all our fancy thrifted stuff we went to get some food with our left over 12 euros. It was hard of course but we got two sandwiches and drinks which weren't that bad.

A/N
I didn't know what to do for this chapter for a few days so needed a lot of help from IRL-Lara but that doesn't really matter.
