Chapter 3

The alarm rang. And guess what the alarm was. Yeah, Taylor Swift. 

I groaned into my pillow but it carried on.

"LEEEEEX! SEEEEB!" No reply. Ugh. I dragged myself out of bed, picked up the phone and chucked it out of the window onto the terrace.

"Not a morning person huh?" Zach said smirking as he came out of the bathroom with nothing but a towel wrapped around his waist. I gaped at his 8-pack. Yes, you read right. AN 8-PACK! I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THAT WAS POSSIBLE!

"My eyes are up here, darling," HE USED MY OWN LINE ON ME. Jerk.

I chucked my pillow, which I happened to be holding. at him as hard as I could and stormed into the bathroom, but not before I saw him catch the pillow.

I got ready for my first day of school and tried to calm myself down. 'Don't let him get to you Sophie', I repeated to myself in my head. I honestly don't know how I'm going to survive this year. You see, I talked to Danny about who was filling in the new position of the editor of the magazine and guess who? Yeah, that's right. Zach. On the better note, Danny had also said that I could carry on my column anonymously so as long as no-one found out, it was all good.

I made my way downstairs to the breakfast hall wondering where Lex and Seb had got to. We always had breakfast together. When I reached I saw them sitting together with full plates in front of them I quickly filled up my plate and sat down with them.

"Where did you guys disappear to this morning?"

"Thought we'd give you some alone time with your lover," Lex replied with her mouth stuffed with bacon.

I glared at both of them. They were convinced that I had a crush on Zach and he had a crush on me and claimed to feel the sexual tension between us. Nonsense. "You guys need to clear your heads of that stupid idea!" I said frustrated.

"Yeah, yeah," Seb said ignoring me completely, "On another note, apparently James was let out of hospital yesterday and is okay to go to lessons. That disgusting baboon."

I laughed at his choice of words to describe James. While Lex glared at James and his friends, Seb looked over at me concerned. 

"I'm fine", I said honestly. For some reason I felt more anger towards James than anything else and was over the fact that I thought I loved him more than he loved me. Even that had changed. I didn't feel any sort of affection towards him whatsoever. Not even in the four times he had come to out dorm to try and talk to me. Luckily I had Lex willing to be her aggressive self to deal with him while Seb tried calming her down. It was honestly quite amusing to watch.

We made our way to the next building in which we had lessons in and separated. We were all taking completely different subjects. While Lex was taking subjects needed to specialise in architecture, Seb wanted to do English and I wanted to do - Well. I wasn't sure but I was trying to keep my options open. Or at least, that's what I had convinced myself.

I looked at my new timetable and looked at the lessons on Wednesday. I saw I had music first thing today which is the best possible start I could have asked for. I was early when I reached the music hall so I decided to warm up on the piano on the stage. As I played 'How to save a life' by The Fray, I sang quietly to myself, not wanted anyone to hear when they started to come in.
