"Laura, Laura. Wake up."

"5 minutes." I whine covering my face with the blanket.

"It's already 10:50 and we have to get there at 11:30."

"1o:50? Why didn't you wake me earlier?"

I quickly get out of bed and run to the bathroom, locking the door behind me.

"Well I woke up late as well." Ross shouts through the door.

"Where's Rydel?" I walk out with a toothbrush in my mouth.

"Downstairs. She's having breakfast." He says, sitting on the bed.

Ross then takes out his phone and starts playing on it while I walk back to the bathroom and rinse my mouth. I then wash my face before walking out. I decided not to have a shower as I already had one last night.

"Hey, Ross? Where'd you get those clothes?" I ask him as I realise he's changed into a different outfit.

"My mum went and bought some. She got you some as well. They're in that bag over there." He points towards the door.

"Aw your mum's so sweet." I say as I make my way to the bag of clothes.

"Yep. By the way, I searched where the café was and it's only like a 5 minute walk from here." He tells me, still playing on his phone .

I search through the bag and find a pair of black jeans, a plain, pale blue shirt and a black, wooly jumper. I take the items of clothing and also some undergarments that Stormie, surprisingly got the right size for me.

"Ross, can you please leave so I can get changed?" I ask.

"Yeah sure. I'll be waiting outside." He gets up and walks out the room while his eyes are concentrated on his phone.

"You are addicted to that phone." I say while taking off my old clothes and sliding into the new ones.

I fold my clothes from yesterday and place them in the corner of the room before putting on my shoes and tying up the laces. I then quickly brush through my hair with my fingers and tie it up in a ponytail.

"It's just this game. I can't seem to get past level 1 and it's annoying me." I hear him groan on the other side.

"Level 1?" I laugh as I open the door.

"What? This game is really hard." He says, placing his phone back into his pocket.

"Sure it is. Anyways, what's the time."

I would've checked on my phone but it ran out of charging last night and I've got no charger.

He takes out his phone and then places it back inside, "11:10."

"We've got about 20mins. What should we do?"

"Let's have breakfast and then we can go." He replies.

"Great. I'm really hungry."

My stomach growls and we both start laughing.

"Great timing." He chuckles.

We take the lift and go down to the ground floor and walk into the cafeteria where they're serving breakfast.

"There they are." Ross says as he pulls me along with him.

"Good morning." I smile and take a seat.

"Morning." They all chorus.
