Lee's POV

I woke up the next morning to something licking my face

What the hell? I groaned opening my eyes and saw Buddy's face inches from mine. I smiled, stroking his fur

"Morning Buddy." I yawned

I reached over for my phone to check the time and noticed I had five missed calls, all from Harry.

Oh my God, has something happened? Is he hurt?

I quickly called him back without thinking, he didn't answer. I called again, straight to voice-mail.

I groaned into my pillow, I was out last night having a good time and he was trying to call me. He could be hurt, lost, in trouble, anything.

Oh God, I quickly phoned his house phone and Anne answered

"Hello?" she answered

"Hey Anne, it's Lee." I said

"Lee sweetie! How's London?" she asked

"Great thanks, is, um, is Harry okay?" I asked

"Yeah he's fine, love. Do you want to speak to him?" she asked

"Oh, no it's okay. Sorry I have to go, my Dad is shouting me. I'll call you later." I lied and ended the call

So he's fine, so he's just ignoring me? He calls me then when I call back he ignores it. Who does that?

I groaned in anger again, leaving my phone and getting out of bed. 

Why are boys such idiots?

"Morning Lee." Dad said as I entered the kitchen

"I'm working today, you going to be okay on your own?" he asked, taking a sip of coffee while trying to do his tie

"Come here." I sighed as I watched him mess up the deep blue tie for the third time

"When did you learn to do that?" Dad asked as I neatly tied his tie

"I think you forget I did grow up with you." I smiled, patting the tie down then kissing his cheek

He smiled, ruffling my hair then finishing his coffee

"I've left the work number on the fridge in case I don't answer my phone, your keys are in the bowl by the door, remember to walk Buddy and I think you should start buying things for University. Like sketch books, and paints and..." he rambled

"Yes, Dad. I'm not a kid any more." I cut him off

"And I need to remember that." he chuckled

"Bye." I smiled as he left for work

I groaned, dragging myself into the shower. I am honestly such a lazy person

*******************

I decided to take my Dad's advice and go shopping for Uni things. I already had a bag full of new paints and brushes, now I needed a large drawing pad. 

I entered my third art store of the day

"Hey." the guy behind the counter smiled

"Hey." I replied with a smile, looking around

I found the drawing pads and selected the size that I wanted

"That all?" the guy asked once he had scanned it

"Yeah, thanks." I nodded and handed him over the money

"Studying art at Uni?" he asked, head tilted to the side
