I didn't get any sleep last night, I just watched my clock tick through the hours all night as I counted down the minutes until my alarm was set to go off if it were a school day, the weekend has finally came around. I try and get some sleep in before mum and dad come in to get me up, every Saturday we usually go to the local markets but I didn't feel up to it today I just wanted to bury my face in my pillow and sleep the day away. And then I remembered. I was going over Josh's house today... OMG. What was I going to do? What was I going to say? I just need to breath. Mum comes bursting through my door."Wake up David! We're leaving in ten minutes!"
"I can't go today." I say rubbing my eyes
"Why not?" Mum questions while whipping my curtains open, I hiss in return "Oh grow up you're not a vampire."
"I can't go because I told Josh that I'll be going over his for the project we got."
"Oh alright then, you've got your spare key?"
"Yes mum, now leave me in peace."
I could feel her role her eyes and leave my room leaving the curtains and door still open but before I could get up to close them I fall straight asleep.
As I wake my eye catches a glimpse of the time 11:30 am wow I slept in a fair bit, I better get up and get ready and then it struck me; I don't know where he lives. I grab my phone off of the charger and open my contacts scrolling till I find his name. I tap on the screen and send him a message
Oi I just realized I don't even know where you live, and also, is it alright if I come over soon? I know it's a little early but I have nothing else to do sooo?
I decide that while I wait for a response I may as well get changed. I scramble through my wardrobe for a nice shirt, I decide on my plain white shirt, it's a bit cold outside so i grab out my red plaid shirt to go ontop. Now for pants, it's either black jeans or.... black jeans! I think i'll just go with the black jeans. Now I've got all that on I can check my phone again, and as expected I have a message from Josh.
Yeah it's fine if you come over soon I'm not busy and I live at 32 Stransler Cresent, just around the corner from the school. Shouldn't be too hard to find I guess.
Great now I gotta catch a bus just to get to his house; time to open the bus timetables. Now let see, one leaves in about 20 minutes, I can get something to eat and leave with plenty of time. I go into the kitchen and get the toaster out and throw in a couple pieces of bread. I get the butter and Nutella out as the toast pops up.
I hurry out and lock the door behind me as I leave for the bus. It took me longer than I thought to eat those two pieces of toast, a whole ten minutes. I run down the road to the bus stop I get there and check the time 12:00 good, I'm 5 minutes early, I hope the bus hasn't already come and gone, so I sit and wait. It turns out the bus was actually about 5 minutes late, I hop on and pay the driver then I go and take a seat. I realize these girls on the seat across from me looking at me and giggling, whats wrong? Is my hair sticking up? Do I have bags under my eyes? What?? I choose to ignore them and go about my day, the music on the radio is pretty boring so i get out my phone and put in my earbuds scrolling through my music... hmm I decide on Control by Halsey (It's an amazing song you should listen to it now btw)
The bus finally gets to the school, I press the button to let the driver know I want to get off now, he pulls over and I hop off walking towards Josh's house, I pull out my phone and re-read the message just to confirm my memory of his house, good thing I did because I thought it said 23 not 32.
I knock on his door and await an answer, after a minute a woman answers the door, she is of average height and has dark brown hair, his mother I assume
"Oh, hello, are you Josh's friend?" She asks.
"Yes ma'am, I'm here to do the project with him." I say in return.
"Debra is fine thank you. Josh is just upstairs in his room, first door on the right." She says politely
"Thank you Debra." I say as she moves out of the door to let me in.
I walk inside and take in my surroundings, there is an amazing scent of lime that fills the air, its nice and warm in here so I take off my red plaid as I'm going up the beautifully designed stairs. Wow. I'm noticing too many things in here, I'm only here to do the project, and soak in the amazing person behind this door. I knock and hear his voice
"I'ts open, come in."
I open the door slowly as he's lying on his bead reading something on his phone.
"Oh, hey I thought it'd be you." He says as he looks up.
"Yeah, I-I'm finally here, t-the bus was a-a bit late, s-sorry." I manage to stutter out as I look at his beautiful eyes.
"Haha that's fine, let's just get this project over and done with." He says
"Y-yeah alright." I say as he sits up.
"Close the door then get a chair." he said pointing over to his desk chair.
"S-sure thing." I close the door and sit in the desk chair.
"So, what are we gonna do for this project? I mean we have to do something about Shakespeare's time and ours don't we? or something like that?" he asks.
I've tried to calm myself down now but I can't help the blush I can feel on my face
"Yeah, s-something like that." I say looking away to study what his room is like, kinda small but very tidy, and he has his desk and shelves very organised, posters of various things on the walls like movies, games and bands. Well now I know we have the same music tastes; TwentyOnePilots, Halsey, Fall Out Boy and Taylor Swift. He notices me looking at the posters
"You like them?" He questions
"Are you kidding? I love them!" I say too enthusiastically. "I mean, they're alright." I quickly correct myself.
