The Day that Changed My Life

Chapter 9~Thanksgiving

Alexandra's Pov.

Its been a month since the incident with me walking out of the bathroom in just my towel, and everything has been going just fine. Michael stayed true to his word and cuddled me and watched movies with me to make me feel better after my horrible Math class. He actually does this after every math class I attend but you won't see me complaining.

Its now early October and I'm starting to feel down. Thanksgiving is coming up this weekend and I'm a little upset that I won't be able to celebrate it with my family. Since here in Australia they don't celebrate thanksgiving they don't give us time off for it. So I'm stuck here with my 4 very annoying and hyper active best friends. Don't get me wrong I love spending time with them and all but I've never not celebrated Thanksgiving with my family so you can see why I'm having trouble here.

Right now the boys and I are chilling in their dorm room just relaxing. After a stressful day of school would you blame us? But thank God it was a Friday I don't think I could have handled another day of school this week. I sighed and cuddled further into Michael. We were all cuddled up in blankets and such because it was somewhat of a cold day today, back in Canada this was our warm weather but being accustomed to the hot Australian weather makes this seem like a very chilly day.

" So what're everyone's plans for this weekend?"Calum asked trying to make conversation, considering we've all been not talking for the last few minutes with is odd with this group of friends I have.

" I don't know I'll probably head over to my mum's shes been ranting about how I never see her anymore."Ashton shrugged. I felt a slight pang in my chest, because I know exactly how Ashton's Mum feels, I miss my family like crazy but I'll see them soon enough. Christmas isn't that far away.

" Calum and I are headed out of town for the weekend, just a little road trip."Luke mumbled while scrolling through his phone. I looked over to Michael and he smiled at me.

" I have no plans, its just me and you this weekend Alex."Michael smirked and I smiled. Thank God I won't be all alone this weekend, that would just be so depressing.

" Thank you, I would have been bored out of my mind if I was here all alone this weekend."I smiled at Michael and he nodded and squeezed me a little tighter to his chest, but I wasn't about to complain. Michael's cuddles are still the best. There so comforting and warm, they just make me feel 100 times better.

" No problem we'll just spend the whole weekend eating junk food and watching movies, I'll even watch some corny movies with you."Michael offered and I nodded excitedly.

" Sounds good." I smiled.

It was now Monday and Luke, Ashton, and Calum were all still out doing God knows what. We were suppose to have classes today but thanks to a small flood in one of the schools buildings we won't have class until Wednesday. Which I guess is a good thing because Michael and I were both up late last night finishing up a movie.

I woke up to find Michael not in the room this morning. I furrowed my eyebrows and got out of bed. I headed to his side of the room and saw a small note on his pillow.

Alex,

Went out to pick up some breakfast be back soon.~Mikey

I smiled and sat back down on my bed, only to be scared half to death by my phone ringing. I looked at the caller ID and saw that it was my mother.Things have been good between us lately, she just recently got over me and Michael being roommates and now we're talking like we used to back at home.I smiled down at my phone and answered the call.

" Hi Mom."I grinned.

" Hey baby girl Happy Thanksgiving."She cheered into the phone causing my grin to only widen.
