MAVISPOV:

"Claire I'm going to head over to the gym, be back in an hour!" I shout from the kitchen.

I grab my purple water bottle from the fridge and put my running shoes on. once I finish throwing my hair into a ponytail I grab my keys and head out the door. Every morning since the beginning of University I've gone to the gym early in the morning around seven, I just find it a nice way to run off extra energy and stress, plus its a great way to keep in shape.

Once I got out to my car I unlocked the door and hopped in. The gym is about a ten minute drive from our dorm so its not much of a big deal. After the quick drive I arrive, not many people are usually here this early in the morning so I can just park wherever. After parking I get out and head in through the doors. The first thing I do when I get in is turn up the music that's on the stereo. There isn't really anything ever good on but its better then working out in the quiet, it's just awkward.  I start by running for ten minutes on the treadmill then moving onto the weights. After lifting those for a few I pick up my boxing gloves and go over to the punching bag. Suddenly in the middle of throwing my fists at the object I hear someone come through the door. I just ignore it and proceed with what I'm doing until the music stops playing. I stop punching and take off my gloves. I walk over to where the stereo is too see just the person I was dreading to see.

"oh hey Mavis" he says turning around to me.

"Louis what are you doing here?" I ask resting my hand on my hip.

"Why everyone else goes to the gym, to workout?" he tells me in a duh tone.

"yeah but why do you have to come so early, especially when I'm here"

"Because that's the time my trainer told me to meet him here, and what's the big deal?" he questions.

"because I don't want you here" I huff.

"well that isn't my problem" he shrugs walking over to the weights.

I walk back over to where my stuff is and grab it all. I'm not staying here with him.

"wait where are you going?" he asks.

"Away from you" I say exiting out of the doors.

I get into my car and throw my stuff into the back and begin to drive. I take the short way so I get home a bit quicker. As soon as I enter the door to my dorm I see Harry standing there. I walk past him not saying a thing and going into my room. I drop my stuff on the floor and go into the bathroom. I undress and get into the shower, quickly rinsing off my sweat and getting out. Since its the holidays I don't have classes for another week. Even though it is the holidays I decided not to go home and spend it with my family, I'm just going to stay here this year and spend it with Claire. After drying myself I put on a pair of sweatpants and my blue plain tee. Throwing my hair into a messy bun I grab my phone and walk out and go into the kitchen. I grab a carton of ice cream and walk back into the living room. I walk in to see Claire laying on the couch watching a movie with Harry, her fiancé. I take a seat on the bean bag we have beside the couch since that's taken.

"how was your workout?" Claire asks looking over to me.

"fine" I say taking a bite of my ice cream.

"isn't it kind of pointless to workout If you're just going to come home and eat junk?" Harry asks chuckling lightly.

"does it look like I care?" I ask kind of harshly.

"whoa somebody's on their period" he replies following a smack on his chest from Claire.

I pick up my ice cream and stomp out of the living room and go into the kitchen to put my stuff away. Honestly  I don't really even like Harry, if it wasn't for Claire I would have kicked him in the balls a long time ago, him and his stupid friends. See if you don't already know Harrys in that boy band 'One Direction' yeah and because of that him and his band mates are always here and I don't like any of them, except Liam he's okay.

Right before I could finish tidying up in the kitchen a knock comes from the door. I put the cloth down and walk over to the door opening it. oh great speak of the devils.

"Hey Mavis" Zayn says before they all barge in.

"please com in" I say sarcastically.

I walk back into the kitchen and finish cleaning up. I decide to go into my room and have nap, I so exhausted. I start walking to my room and get stopped by someone's leg across the floor causing me to trip and hit my face on the ground. I sit up and rub my nose before realising everybody's laughing.

"Mavis are you okay?" Claire asks coming over to me to help me up.

"just fucking wonderful, how about you boys learn to grow up and leave me the fuck alone!" I shout running t my room.

I didn't even see who tripped me, but honestly I don't care they're all assholes. I walk over to my bed and plot down on it shoving my face into my pillow and letting a huge scream out. I realize this seems immature for a twenty year old to do but I don't care I'm just honestly so sick of them I just wish Claire wasn't with Harry because then I wouldn't have to deal with them.

"hey Mavis can I come in?" I hear someone's voice ask.

"I don't care" I answer, my face still stuffed into my pillow.

I hear my door close and someone's footsteps walk over to the end of m bed and taking a seat. I raise my head to see who it is, Louis?

"what do you want?" I ask rudely bringing my legs up to my chest and resting my chin on my knees.

"I wanted to see if you were alright, I shouldn't have done that" he says kind of sympathetically.

"oh I shouldn't be surprised that it was you" I huff.

"What's that suppose to mean?" he asks confused.

"well you're a total and complete ass to me, you literally try everything to get on my nerves and ever since we met I swear to god you've had some sort of hate towards me" I finish.

"What do you mean I have some sort of hate towards you? I always thought you hated me hence the reason I always picked on you because I knew it was going to bother you more then it would if you didn't hate me, and I thought maybe it would make you not hate me"

" well I wouldn't hate you if you weren't such an arrogant asshole" I say getting off the bed.

He sits there for a minute in silence.

"Mavis I'm sorry for ever pissing you off, or being rude to you, or doing whatever I did to make you hate me, can we just be friend?" he asks standing up and walking towards me.

"whatever" I answer.

"that doesn't sound very promising" he says coming closer.

"fine yes we can be friends" I roll my eyes.

He nods his head and goes out my door. Thank god now maybe I can get some sleep.
