I fell asleep early that night, couldn't even make it past 9pm before my eyes fell closed. Though I had slept so long in the morning something had gotten me extremely tired.

After he had dropped me off I had called Lyric and explained her the whole situation while I worked on my new sewing project; a spring dress with different layers and a corset top.

I couldn't tell if she was overly happy or simply surprised and taken back by how quickly everything happened.

Telling her about it all also opened my eyes on how quickly this had gone, three days ago I was still claiming I had no liking or whatsoever for Kiernan. Now I was laying in bed thinking about him and if we would talk tomorrow in school.

It worried me a little, the whole situation could come out very awkward but I decided to not put as mich thought into it as I had done last week when I couldn't sleep because I was too scared of the upcoming day.

I would just see what happens and in an emergency case I could still run away, leave the country or something. School wasn't as important I guess.

I had also told Lyric about the things Kiernan had done to Evan, or at least the stuff I knew of.
He was in the hospital, that's all I knew.

And that Kiernan had the fault for it.

Lyrics first reaction was a scream of happiness, which I partly shared but then again it got me worried for Kiernan. It couldn't be that there were just simply no consequences to his actions.

He had to at least face a judge or something- right?

Then again, last time Evan had been in the hospital there hadn't been much trouble either. Kiernan had been accused but it hadn't been brought in front of a judge because his lawyer made a deal with Evans.

But this was the second time, there had to be a consequence.

Evans mom maybe wasn't the best but even she would be worried about her son being in the hospital again. I would definitely need to ask Kiernan about it tomorrow.

I didn't know how he would react to it, I knew for a fact if I had asked Evan about something like this he would have freaked out violently and probably ended up breaking up with me just because I had invalidated his privacy or something.

But Kiernan wasn't really the guy to freak out at me, or at least he never had before.

So maybe this was even good because this way I could find out how he acted and how far I could push an argument, if one would play out tomorrow, till he freaked out.

I took a quick shower before hopping in bed and drifting off into my dreams.

The next morning actually felt very slow, I woke up after 9 hours of sleep, got ready and ate yoghurt with granola and had a hot chocolate with it.

I put on my clothes and had enough time to even do my hair before Lyric rang the doorbell.

I quickly grabbed my backpack and put on my shoes before walking out to her. "Good morning" she smiled at me, holding two coffees in her hand.
Honestly how could this morning get better?

I hugged her and took a sip of the caramel coffee she had brought me. "You're an angel"
"And you look like one." I smiled at her as we started walking. "No for real you're shining like crazy, did you do something different? Not that you don't usually shine but you know."

I took another sip, the warmth of the steaming coffee warming me from the inside.

Though it was starting to get warmer, the early mornings and late nights were still like a late December morning. Sadly it didn't snow anymore, otherwise the cold would at least have a good reason to exist.
