Chapter 21

I hurried outside and stood still. I tried to un-jumble my thoughts and make some sense to myself but it was no use. My heart pounded faster the more I stressed about my situation. My head really was starting to spin now. I decided that walking would clear my head. I headed down the road, and towards the tube station. Hopefully there would have been no rush and the tube would be calm, but the tube was never calm. I reached the tube and crammed myself into a cramped carriage. I again tried to sort through my thoughts, this time it was a little easier as I had, had time to calm down and relax, things were begging to make sense, finally. I reached my stop and hopped out and headed out of the tube station and along the short walk that led me to my house. I pulled out my phone to check the time. It was 9.30, but it had seemed much later. Everyone should have left my house and luckily they had. I finally reached my house, so I pulled out my keys and unlocked the door.

I stepped inside, kicked off my shoes and ran upstairs. I opened my bedroom door and hurried over to my wardrobe; I pulled out a bigger bag and started to rummage through my clothes. I pulled out a few tops and pants and chucked them onto the bed along with my bag. I then threw my converse onto my bed along with my underwear. I then neatly packed them into my bag and transferred my make-up bag and purse into it. I then hurried to the bathroom and grabbed my toiletries; I then headed back to my room and popped them into my back. I stood still looking at my bag, hoping I hadn't missed anything. I zipped up my bag, and hurried back down the stairs. I put the bag on the sofa and headed to the kitchen. I took a post it note out of the draw and started to write my mum a message.

*Mum, I am going away for tonight I will ring you later, I promise. I love you, Sam x*

I left the note on the bench and headed back to the living room. I tugged on my military boots and grabbed my bag. I headed out the door, locked it and walked up the street. As I walked up the street, I started to rack my brains to try and remember when Harry was going next; I had a memory like a goldfish. It took me a good 5 minutes to remember. Harry was going to Sunderland, I had heard of Sunderland the odd time and the only thing I knew about it was that it was up the country, but I had no clue how I was going to get there. I did some googling and worked out how I was going to get there, because my geography skills are appalling, so I hoped that it all went to plan. I reached the tube station, feeling like it was my 100th time on the tube today. I made my way to the platform and boarded the tube, this time it was not so crowded. I checked my phone for the time again it was 10.45, it hadn't taken me that long to sort myself out. I got off the tube at my stop Kings Cross Station and headed to the main part of the station. Me and travelling never went well, so I was planning this trip with military precision, nothing could go wrong. I checked the times of the trains to Newcastle, and headed over to the ticket booth.

'Next' the man called.

I hurried over to the empty counter.

'Hi, could I have a single ticket to Newcastle please?' I mumbled.

'Just a single love?' The man asked.

'Yes thank you, the 12'o clock one please' I spoke.

'Of course, that is £26.50 please' he spoke.

Dear me, train tickets were expensive but I pushed my card into the machine and paid the man. I removed my card and the man handed me my ticket.

'Thank you' I spoke.

'Safe trip' he replied.

I walked to the notice board to see which platform my train was from. Platform 7. It was now 11.30, I had half an hour. I still felt really ill but had been pushing it to the back of my mind. I decided to go to boots to get some medicine and food to help make myself feel better. I roamed around boots for about 5 minutes before I picked something, I picked up a chicken salad wrap, a bottle of water and a packet of paracetamol. After paying for my items I then headed to my platform. Once I reached the platform I sat down and decided to take some paracetamol before the train came. Another 5 minutes passed and then finally the train arrived. I boarded the train and sat down. I decided to have a nap on the train, as my lack of sleep last night was catching up with me. I set an alarm for 2 hours later and nodded off.
