Broken

{ Chapter 7 }

After I've said goodbye I check my mail and apply some Chapstick. My lips are raw. I haven't kissed a lot before Zayn, so I'm not used to this kind of feeling.

I take my laptop and head to the library/my desk area. I open a folder and start writing down the books I've read the last couple days. Not much it I still do it.

I browse through my dad's stacks of books and see some good ones. I don't take them with me because I still need to catch up with some other books.

I take my laptop back to my room and plop it on my bed, afterwards I grab my phone and head downstairs to get some water.

When I turn my phone on I have three messages.

One from Harry about school next week and if we'll ride together. I agree to come with.

One from Zayn letting me know he had a great time and I'm an awesome kisser. Nice to know.

And one from Niall confirming his number. I text all of me back and put my phone down.

I decide to go back to school shopping tomorrow with Harry and ask him about it. Minutes later he confirms.

After I've watched warm bodies, which I really liked, I head upstairs to take a shower. I feel my period coming up so no bath for me. After a quick shower I put my pjs on, a yellow short and a green tanktop, I dive in bed.

I take The fault in our stars and read a few chapters. I feel tired so I just put it down. I drift off on the river I'm all to familiar with and stay there for the night.

I wake up from my alarm and put some gym shorts on. I switch in a white tshirt and tie my shoelaces.

After some water I head outside and go for a run. I run pars the lake again and greet the ducklings.

When I return I see Harry's already here. I grin. "I thought we agreed on one o'clock. Not eleven?"

His eyes meet mine as he smiles crookedly."I'm sorry, I just wanted to go now since they got the new To Kill A Mockingbird limited edition and they've got the the preordered Mockingjays! I wanted to get it but I need to know if you want one too?"

I squeal:" Finally! I've been waiting for the damn book nearly a year. Let me just change."

Minutes later I join him in a flower jumpsuit and slippers, fresh from the quickest shower ever. Harry gets up from the couch in dad's living room and walks to his bike.

Since we both live near the city we go by bike. We arrive shortly after and head to the bookstore in a big hush, through the bustling city.

We talk excitedly about the book and die of anticipation. When we arrive we grab the best looking copies of Mockingjay and To Kill A Mockingbird and pay.

Afterwards we look at the rest of the books, holding our newly bought books, we both have the habit to make a book ours before further shopping.

"Did you hear about The Lost Hero being released? I hope it's good."

He nods."Uhu, I loved Percy Jackson and the Olympians. I hope he wings it with this one too."

I smile at my best fiend with whom I share a mind. "I liked the lightning tied the best."

"I did too but it's normal, I had the same with the hunger games, the maze runner and a lot of other books. The authors just get cocky real quick and want to finish it off to make money."

I nod in respond.

I apply some Burt's bees on my lips and stop when I see Niall buying To Kill a Mockingbird in the same version we bought and excitedly walking to the stack of mocking jays on our left.
