Chapter 2:

I groggily opened my eyelids and stared up at my white bedroom ceiling, taking a deep breath and exhaled it out.

"Just another damn day." I whispered under my breath as I sat up on the bed.

I moved my gaze over to my window and the early morning light shinned in threw my bedroom curtains. I growled annoyed realizing the sun was out. I hate the sun so much, I would rather live in Seattle where there's hardly any sun. Like the movie Twilight when that one dude vampire fell in love with that human chick, I'd totally be happier over there. I just hate the sun, no wonder I'm so pale, I laughed at my own criticism.

I removed my stare from the window and pulled off the bed sheets from my body and rose from the bed, walking over to my bathroom to brush my teeth.

I grabbed my toothbrush out of the sink drawer, taking out the paste, putting it on the bristle and brushed my teeth. I rinsed off my mouth with water once finished, spitting it out in the sink and put the tooth brush back in the drawer and exited out the bathroom and walked over to my closet to get ready for school. I grabbed a long sleeve black shirt, with skinny jeans, black converse and placed them on. I walked back into my bathroom and brushed my stubborn hair out.

"Damn it." I cursed as I tried combing out the knots in my tangled hair.

I woke up rather angry this morning from the lack of sleep I had, I hardly slept since I had so much on my mind, and my tangled hair wasn't making me any more happier.

Finally with the little patience I had, I combed out the knots from my long straight brown hair that fell down mid way of my back and was ready for school.

I walked out the bathroom and went out my room and headed downstairs into my kitchen where Lauren was sitting down at the kitchen counter, drinking her coffee and looking down reading her newspaper.

"Morning." I whispered having my heart shrink into a small ball remembering the conversation I had with her yesterday.

"Good Morning Ava."

I walked over to the fridge to grab an apple.

"You sleep well?" Lauren asked

"No, but I'll live I suppose." I said giving her no eye contact while closing the fridge and took a bite out of my apple "Did you?" I asked finally turning around to look at her.

She looked up from reading her newspaper, "I barley slept, but I'll live." she sort of smiled, copying my words and returned her gaze on her newspaper.

We stayed quiet for awhile.

I felt guilty as hell for what I said to her the other day, she didn't deserve my attitude, I hated apologizing to people, but Lauren is the only person on this living, breathing earth who has put up with my attitude and she doesn't deserve it, so I took a deep breath and exhaled.

"Lauren," I said " I apologize for the yesterday-"

"Stop." she said removing her gaze from her newspaper again and looked me straight in the eyes "What's done is done, it's the past Ava."

I looked at her wide eyed, I couldn't find the words to speak, I chocked. I wanted to cry really bad for some reason, but I didn't.

"Will you ever find it in your heart to forgive me?" I finally asked

"I already have," Lauren said "I'm sorry too, I shouldn't have said the things I did, it's just, I worry about you baby and I care so much for you, you know that right?" she asked getting up from where she sat and walked over to where I stood and placed both her palms softly on my cheeks.
