Teenage Love

Chapter 18: Break Down

I groaned waking up, Less was awake and was sat on Instagram, drawing shapes onto my back

"Morning Al" less said softly as I turned my face away from her and pulling the duvet cover up higher

Alessia laughed before sitting on my back and pulling the cover down, massaging my shoulders

"Come on sleepy" she said leaning down to place kisses on the back of my neck

"I'm awake, I'm awake" I mumbled as I opened my eyes

Alessia got off me and pulled me so I was facing her

"We have class soon so we need to get up" Alessia said softy, tucking a piece of my hair behind my ear

I nodded with a groan and sat up, standing up and stretching

Alessia stood up and wrapped her arms around my torso

"Your so warm" she mumbled into my neck

I turned around and pulled her closer to my body, we stayed like that for ages before getting ready for the day

I sighed as I read the reminder on my phone 'wish mum happy birthday'

Today was my mums birthday, the first birthday with out her around.

I walked down into the kitchen and walked over to the toaster, grabbing some bread and putting it in the toaster, it popped back up after I tried to put the toaster down

I sighed and tried again, still popping up again

I tired over and over again, getting more forceful as I went on

I felt some grab my wrist and pull it away from the toaster

"Here" Alessia said softly putting the toaster down

"Thanks" I said quietly, going to sit down and go on my phone

All you've got to do is get through this day Alex.

I watched as Alex bounced her pen against the table, like she use to in high school when she got bored and was about to do something

"Turner stop bouncing your pen please" the teacher asked

Alex sighed obnoxiously loud and slouched into her chair

She made eye contact with me, I shook my head and mimed 'don't do anything stupid' she huffed and moved her eyes back to the front

"Dunno" Alex said as the teacher asked her a question I know she knew, she was trying to be difficult... somethings never change... this was exactly how she acted when we were in high school

"That's not good enough, give it a go" the teacher sighed

"I just said I don't know" Alex said sharply back

"Watch your tone with me" the teacher said

"Or what" Alex challenged, standing up

"Sit down turner"

"No" Alex refused

"Don't be difficult, sit down" the teacher sighed

"Don't be difficult? Alright then" Alex said before walking out of the room and slamming the door

The teacher looked over at me

"Russo go find her please" he sighed

I stood up and grabbed my hoodie from my chair, well Alex's hoodie
