      "School's been cancelled for tomorrow."  Louis said running up to Laura out of breath.

Laura looked at him.

"What?" She asked him again.

"School's cancelled tomorrow." He answered.

"Because it's suppose to snow tonight, right?" Laura asked.

Her and Louis hadn't been on the best talking terms lately.

They talked but not like usually.

The conversations between them were ungratefully dry now.

"Right." He answered.

Laura nodded and continued walking.

She wanted to go talk to Tyonnia.

The curiosity to know what Chance needed to talk to her about was killing her.

"I was wondering if you wanted to go grocery shopping with me? It's suppose to a lot of snow and I don't want to be one of those people who starves with no food because I was to dumb to go grocery shopping before the snow." Louis pointed out.

"I don't need anything from the store." Laura stated.

"We need food, for the dorm. It's been weeks since we last went grocery shopping. We're low." Louis pointed out.

Laura sighed.

He wasn't getting the idea that she for one didn't want to talk to him and two didn't want to go shopping for anything with him.

"You can grocery shop on your own Louis. I will be fine." She stopped walking and faced Louis.

Now face to face, Louis was finally getting the point in all this sour talk.


"What's up with you?" He asked.


Laura shrugged her shoulders.


"No seriously, what is it?" Louis asked getting serious.


"It's nothing. I'm just tired." Laura answered.


"You slept all day yesterday. How can you be tired?" Louis asked.


"I just am." Laura stated.


"You're acting like you don't want me around. I can't think of one single thing I did wrong or even said wrong to you. Your mood changes way to much for me, I can't even keep up. Then whenever I do ask what's wrong, you always give me some small white lie. So there is never a way for me to fix and make you happy. You know what? I will go grocery shopping by myself. Have fun sleeping or whatever you're doing that you don't want me to know about."

Louis walked away, heading in the direction for the parking lot.


He was hurt.

His face expression told all.

Laura heart sunk in just a matter of seconds.

She stood there for awhile.

Other college students passing by gave her a weird odd look. Maybe because it was freezing cold and she was just standing there like it didn't bother her.

She took a deep breath and regained herself.

She went back to her dorm room.

Her phone had went completely dead while she was in class.

She put it on the charger and went into the bathroom to take a quick shower.

Laura didn't know how long it took Louis to grocery shop and she was sure it probably wouldn't be long.
