About 30 seconds after I arrived at the bus stop, the bus came. I gave my money to the bus driver, pulled out the ticket from the machine and went to sit at the back of the bus. I went into my bag and took out my phone and my headphones which I luckily remembered to pack. I plugged them into my phone and put on the Arctic Monkey's new album. I felt my phone vibrate and I looked down to see that I had a message from Brad.

"I'm assuming you are on the bus and aren't still asleep. I'll see you in 15. Bxx"

I smiled at his text and locked my phone. Brad had introduced me to the Arctic Monkey's, but I was into that type of music because my friend always had similar, good music on her phone so I immediately loved them. My favourite on the album was "Arabella" and I knew that Brad liked "Why do you only call me when you're high?"

I felt my eyelids drop and I realised how tired I was. I really shouldn't constantly stay up all night talking to my friend and scrolling through tumblr.

I jolted forwards as the bus stopped and watched an elderly lady hobble of the bus. My bus always contained people of the older generation. I lived in a small village which not many people knew of, and it was quiet with not much to do but sometimes that was a good thing. I remember when Brad first came over to my house, we rode on my family's bikes to the pond and had a picnic. It was summer then, and now it was colder and wetter. I love Summer, but it always goes so quickly.

I paused the music and took out my headphones, putting them in my small bag, because I was getting off at the next stop. I had been on the bus far too many times to see Brad, so luckily I knew where I was going.

As the bus turned right, which was the final corner before my stop, I pressed the button which signalled to the driver that I wanted to get off.

I stumbled to the front of the bus and it stopped soon after I got there. The doors opened, I thanked the driver, stepped out onto the pavement and looked around for Brad.
