(Sophie)
"Soph" I heard my name being called as I struggled to open my eyes and turned to the voice to see Liberty standing next to me
"Good morning" I yawned
"Good morning to you too, Sleeping Beauty. We're late" she said
"What!" I yelled as I jumped up and ran to the bathroom.
Moving as if my life depended on it I quickly got into the shower showing while brushing my teeth at the same time when Liberty walked in
"Liberty, why didn't you wake me up early?" I asked
"Girl, I just woke up myself," she yawned as I came out to see her fixing her hair
"My chemistry teacher's gonna kill me," I said as Liberty stepped in
"So you have chem first again?" she asked turning on the shower
"I have chem first all week," I said running out of the bathroom to get ready.
About fifteen minutes later we were outside
"Great he's late again" I sighed
"Why don't you ride with me?" Liberty asked
"Thanks, Libbs," I said before we entered her car and drove off
About ten minutes down the road my phone rang and knowing who it was I answered
"Hey Sophie," he said nonchalantly
"Don't hey Sophie me. Where the hell are you, Nick?" I said angrily
"I'm getting the feeling you're angry about something" he joked
"Oh no I just love yelling," I rolled my eyes
"Look, I'm sorry I couldn't pick you up okay," he said
"Really Nick what was so important this time?" I asked
"Nothing. I just went to get a drink last night and-" he said before I interrupted him
"You've got to be kidding me, Nick. You're drinking again" I said
"It was just a little"
"You wouldn't be hungover if it was just a little Nick"
"I know I shouldn't have. It's just I was in a bad head space and you didn't tell me what you were talking to Taylor about-" he said
"So this is my fault?!" I snapped
"I didn't say that. I'm just saying all you had to do is tell me what you and Taylor" he said
"Don't bring Taylor into this Nick" I said
"What you have a problem with me talking about him," Nick said clearly jealous
"You know what Nick I'm not doing this. I'll talk to you later" I said hanging up trying not to throw my phone out the window
"So who was it?" Liberty tried to clear the air
"The ice cream man" I answered bitterly
"Wow," she said as I sighed
"Sorry Liberty, I'm just pissed at Nick right now" I apologized
"Really the argument didn't give it away," she said
"We weren't arguing," I said
"Mhm hmm like how you weren't arguing with James last night," she said
"You heard that?" I said embarrassed
"Girl the whole block heard" she answered
"Great," I said sarcastically
