part one.

before the collision.
noraa's pov

   the sun began to shine in on my room, falling to my face. my eyes fluttered opened and i covered my face with my hand. it was a bright saturday morning and the rays of the sun shone in on my bed, making it warm and cozy. i sat up on my bed, grabbing my phone off of my nightstand. i scrolled through instagram, looking at all of the pictures posted. i smiled at the very few my friends had posted. i checked the time, it read 9:04 am. i let out a soft yawn, throwing my phone on my bed and standing up to stretch. i looked back at the somewhat warm bed and frowned,
"i don't wanna get up." i groaned to myself, plopping back down on my bed.
   "nor, ya gotta get up, you gotta get some coffee and study." i said to myself, trying to pep-talk myself into getting up.
   i finally worked up the energy to get up and so i did. i began to gather my favorite pair of light blue jeans and my vans t-shirt. i grabbed a pair of underwear and made my way to the bathroom to take a shower. i played my shower playlist and started up a slightly warm shower. i undressed myself and got into the shower, letting the warm water hit my back before washing up.
   i climbed out of the shower after rinsing soap off of my body. i grabbed a towel from the shelf and began drying myself. i sang along to every song that played from the playlist. i dressed myself and threw half of my hair in a ponytail after drying it. i grabbed my makeup bag off of the shelf and did simple eyeliner, applying mascara and some nude lipstick, i turned off my music.
   i looked in the mirror and smiled at myself slightly, then walked away. i made my way to the front door of my lonely apartment, it was completely silent other than my soft footsteps. i slipped on a black pair of vans and grabbed my small backpack and apartment keys.
   i opened the door, allowing myself to exit the apartment and closing the door behind then locking it. i threw in a pair of earbuds and played my 'favorite songs' playlist. i slipped my phone in my back pocket and began to make my way to the coffee shop. i smiled at the thought of coffee. i sped up my walking in attempt to make this process happen faster. i almost walked into a few people but i brushed it off.
   as my walk came to an end, i began to see the coffee shop come into sight. i let out a content sigh as i grabbed my phone from my back pocket, turning off my music and unplugging the earbuds to place in my mini-backpack.
   i arrived at the coffee shop, immediately opening the door and letting myself in.
   "g'morning noraa!" one of the workers yelled to me.
   "good morning seb!" i yelled back, adding a little wave.
   i placed my backpack at my usual table and went up to get a cup of coffee.
   "the usual please, seb." i spoke softly, my voice showing i was joyful.
   "of course my dear! what's making you so happy this morning?" seb asked as he began making your cup of coffee.
   "honestly i don't know, i have quite a bit of studying and work to do then i gotta pick up my shift at 5 pm." i smiled at him.
   "sounds like fun." seb laughed.
   "don't get me wrong, i absolutely love my job but you have the few people that completely ruin the mood." i threw my head back in annoyance when seb slipped my coffee to me.
   "thank you so much seb!" i squealed and grabbed my coffee, walking back to my table.
   "no problem noraa." seb shot me a soft smile.
   i sat down and grabbed my earbuds from my bag, plugging them into my phone. i put on my 'coffeeshop' playlist and took out my friends notes and my notebook. i began copying my friends notes into my notebook and taking sips from my coffee every so often. i tapped my foot to the beat of my music.
