It had been a long day, from the long trip and unpacking, by the time we got home from dinner we both silently went to our rooms and went to bed. Of course, I was tired the entire walk to my room, but as soon as I laid down, I was wide awake. 

Tomorrow I would have to check out my new school, and schedule classes, and if I get that done quick enough, I would be able to go to some of the classes. I had no reason why, but I was almost excited to go back to school tomorrow.

But of course, I did know why I was excited. He went to that school, which meant I had a chance to see him again. I smiled before rolling over onto my stomach and shoving my face into my pillow. 

It smelt like him, which was comforting. I closed my eyes again and thought of him. Within minutes I was out.

*********

I woke up to my alarm, which was my dad yelling at me to get up. I groaned, grabbing my phone and checking the time. It was 6:30 A.M. which left me an hour to get ready until we would have to leave.

I stretched a bit before going through a few boxes to find my shampoo, conditioner, soap, and everything else I needed for a shower. I stumbled over to the bathroom connected to my room and locked the door behind me. 

It was a large bathroom, with a medium sized shower stall with a separate bath tub, a sink, and a toilet. Above the sink was an average sized cupboard, with mirrors on the doors.

I set my things on one of the shelves in the shower before stripping out of the clothes I didn't change out of last night. I stepped into the shower, turning on the water and adjusting it to the right temperature before stepping under the water flow. 

I just stood under the water for a few minutes, letting my muscles relax, before I started washing my hair. My shampoo and conditioner smelt like coconuts, which I loved. I rinsed my hair of shampoo before adding the conditioner. I massaged the conditioner into my hair, letting it sit for a while as I washed my body. 

Once I had rinsed off everything, I stepped out of the shower, grabbing the towel I had placed on the sink. I wrapped it around me before walking out to my closet. While there I grabbed a pair of jeans with a hole in the knee, a flannel shirt, underwear, a bra, and my knee high brownish- tan boots.

 I slid into the clothes, tucking in the shirt. My father had gotten me this outfit, telling me, "The clothes you wear here in the city won't exactly work out in the country." Not that I wouldn't miss the tight, short dresses I wore, but I liked this look on me. 

I brushed out my hair before using my hair dryer to dry it. Fortunately, my hair is straight, so I don't have to worry about getting the curls just right. I continued to brush it, as I walked downstairs to grab something to eat.

The fridge, though we had just gotten here, was already half full of food. Along with the bowl of fruit that had appeared on the counter over night. I grabbed a banana out of the bowl before going back up to my room, placing my brush back in the bathroom.

I opened the banana, biting off some before placing it on my bedside table. I went to grab a pair of socks quickly, before sitting back on my bed to put them on, my boots following them. I grabbed one of my belts and slid it through the loops on my jeans, buckling it in the front before grabbing my banana and heading back downstairs.

"Dad I'm ready!" I yelled as I neared the downstairs. I waited by the door for him to come with the car keys, and soon after he was there.
