The 40th Floor

Chapter 7 - The Elevator

Lauren's POV

"WTF!? 11 AM !? SHIT". It was way too late, I never get up this late. I was afraid everyone was after their breakfast and I slept in. I ran to Courtney's room still in my pyjamas. I knocked constantly. I could hear foot stumps coming towards the door. The door opened and there was Courtney, looking like a zombie with her hair all over the place. "Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat", she moaned. "Shit is everyone still asleep?", I questioned realising everyone was probably exhausted from the long day yesterday. "Well no shit like", Courtney said fairly pissed. "Oh okay sorry". She closed the door and you could hear her stamp back to her bed and plump on the bed.
I went back to my room and got a head start of the day. I got dressed and did my make-up. I picked up my phone checking my instagrams while walking out the door to go to breakfast.
"Woah, sorry", a deep juicy voice said coming from a tall handsome figure I bumped into. Luke. I froze for a second then did an awkward chuckle. "Oh ehm it's okay haha". I mentally face palmed myself. "Are you going to breakfast too?", he asked politely with a cheeky smirk on his face. "Yeah, you?". "Obviously Lauren dumb ass, he made it clear!". He giggled. "Eh yeah wanna eat with me". I closed my eyes and did a little 'yes' victory thing with my fist. "Of course ! I mean like yeah sure I can.. I can go. Eat. Breakfast, yeah". I smiled awkwardly. "Heh okay lets go". His smile made me melt.

Cara's POV

I walked to the restaurant with Peyton and Ali at 12:30pm expecting to see the rest of the class there. We walked in to see the restaurant empty but Lauren and Luke sitting at a separate table. We all smirked at each other, exchanging some glances. Lauren spotted us watching and huffed back up sitting straight. Luke was about to look behind when Lauren distracted him. We sat at the other side of the restaurant giving them some alone time. Lauren sent a glare over from the other side of the restaurant. We all chuckled and started nudging each other. They were sitting at a couple table and we were sitting at a big fancy table reserved for the class. "Would you like to order or would you prefer to wait for the others and order together?", a waitress came over and asked politely. "Better than the creepy receptionist yesterday". I thought to myself while I quickly answered. "Ohhhhhh nah girl I'm gone order now, hah!", Ali looked at me holding in her laughter best she could. "Okay I'll get deeeeeehhhhh....Okay so for starters ill get the large fruit salad, no oranges, no red apples. For the drink I will have the purple boost vit - hit, so yano i get a little boost in the morning HAHAH! So yeah for main I'll have the chocolate chip pancakes, make sure they're huge now, rashers on a separate plate, as you Americans call it bacon, now, NO MAPLE SYRUP, make sure I get plenty of chocolate now, PLAIN not dark chocolate. Hah mank tho. I'll have 2 full Irish's if you don't know what that is, it's a fairly big fry, and ill have no pudding or sauce and for drink ill have a hot chocolate. Make sure I get a tonne of marshmallows now and just toast on the side. Thanks. Oh and orange juice!", I blabbered out, without stuttering once. "You know it's breakfast right?", the waitress asked me with a disgusted face. "You better have taken that down", I said with a pissed face. She stayed silent and moved onto Peyton. "And for you", she started, her smile slowly coming back. "Alright so..", Peyton began. The waitress gave up. Peyton started with her long order as Ali smiled in shame of knowing us and put her head in her hands. Luke noticed us when I was talking because I talked a bit too loud.

Everyone started coming in now and sat at the big table. Everyone looked at Lauren and Luke then at us sending smirks around the place. Eventually everyone came in and Lauren and Luke came over to join the rest of the class. Lauren sat next to Talia and Talia started nudging her and asking her what they talked about and what was going on. "Nothing really we just talked", Lauren shrugged. "Bitch no! Wtf happened!", Talia almost screamed loud enough for Luke to hear. "Shhhhhh, would you shutup", Lauren chuckled. "We just yano talked about school and he wanted to get to know me better. I didn't find out much about him though he just wanted to make it.. all about me", Lauren squealed emphasising 'me'. Talia squealed along with her. They started talking and discussing for a while when Lauren took a second to look at Luke who was already looking. He was already smirking but it grew when Lauren sent a bigger smile back.
