"Wake up! Wake up!" I felt someone jumping on my bed and groaned. "Go away!" I replied and threw a pillow at them. "Hayley it's 1pm! We need to go and see Dunkirk!" Rachel exclaimed and I sighed before rolling on to my back. "Did I sleep through until 1pm?" I asked and she nodded as she crawled off of the bed, I rolled over to check my phone and saw I had a text message.

Good morning, did you want me to come and see you this morning or are you busy? x

I feel really bad, I told him he could come and see me before I left to go to the cinema but I over slept...

Hey! I'm so sorry, I over slept and I feel so bad because I said you could come and visit! I'm so so so so sorry! x

I placed my phone back down on the side and covered my face with the pillow... I feel like such an idiot... "What's up?" Rachel asked as she walked out of the bathroom. "I feel like an idiot." I mumbled into the pillow and Rachel removed it from my face. "Why?" She asked and started to brush her hair. "I told Brad yesterday that he could come and see me before I left for the cinema today but I over slept." I said and Rachel giggled. "What?" I asked. "Stop worrying! I'm sure he really doesn't mind." She replied and started to do her make up. "Come on, stop sulking and go and get ready, we have to leave in half an hour." She continued and I got out of bed.

I threw on some jeans and a top before brushing my hair and teeth, I then slipped on some socks and shoes before sorting out my bag. I grabbed a piece of toast before walking over to Rachel. "Are you ready?" I asked as I took a bite of my toast, Rachel nodded in return, I picked up my phone and looked at it to see that Brad hasn't replied... He must be really mad...

We walked out of our room and down the stairs before hopping on a bus to the closest cinema. "Have you seen any boys you like the look of yet?" I asked as we sat down on the bus. "Not really, there is one but that's not going to happen." Rachel explained as she looked at her phone. "Who is it?" I asked. "It doesn't matter." She replied and I nudged her in the shoulder before wiggling my eye brows at her. "Fine! It's James..." She explained. "Brad's friend James?" I asked and she nodded. "Have you ever spoken to him?" I asked. "No, he doesn't even know I exist. I have just seen him around that's all." Rachel explained and I smiled. "Aw that's so cute! And he does know that you exist because I have told him about you." I stated. "What have you said?!" Rachel panicked and I giggled. "Calm down! I just said that you are my room mate and you are really nice, I can get you two to meet if you want?" I asked and Rachel shook her head. "No it's ok, I will just watch from afar." Rachel said and I smiled. "The boys said they would like to meet you anyway. You have already met Brad." I said and she nodded. "Maybe... Just don't set me up and put me in an awkward situation with him." Rachel asked and I giggled. "I won't, don't worry." I replied and she smiled.

We eventually reached the cinema and stepped off of the bus. "I am so excited to see this movie!" Rachel exclaimed as we walked in through the doors. "Where are the machines to print off our tickets?" I asked and Rachel pointed to the side of us, I walked over to the machine and typed in the code before Rachel collected the tickets that fell out of the bottom. "Do you want any snacks?' Rachel asked as I put my phone in my bag. "No thanks, if I drink anything I will just need to the toilet half way through." I explained and Rachel giggled. "What?" I asked. "You have literally eaten a slice of toast all day, let me get you something." Rachel said and I rolled my eyes. "Like what?" I asked. "Your choice. There is ice cream, chocolate, sweets or popcorn I think." She explained. "Ice cream?" I asked. "Sounds good! What flavour do you want?" She asked as we walked over to the counter. "Chocolate please." I replied and stood back a little as she bought our ice cream. "Let's go!" She exclaimed as she passed me my ice cream.
