~Lexee's P.O.V~

The annoyong alarm clock interrupted my peaceful slumber which was not peaceful at all. I still have the headache, it's just hurting more now that my ear drums met the sound of my alarm. I slowly sat up on my bed, checking the time.

6.47 a.m

Okay, why was my alarm clock set so early for me.

There was no point for me to go back to sleep with this headache so I just got out of my comfortable bed and started getting ready for the day. I went to the bathroom and did my business that is none of your business. I cleaned up after myself and washed my hands. I looked at myself in the mirror.

"Two more days." I whispered to myself and let out a long sigh.

I opened the left side of the mirror cabinet and grabbed the tiny bottle of pain-killers. I took out two pills and put the tiny bottle back in the cabinet. I poured myself a cup of water and downed the two pills in one gulp. I took a few more sips of the water and placed the cup back on the sink. I then brushed my pearly whites and walked out and in to my wardrobe. I picked out a simple but still cute outfit for Wednesday aka today.

I looked at my full-body mirror and was satisfied with my outfit. I grabbed my backpack; threw my wallet in it. I took my phone and placed it in my back pocket. I then made my way downstairs.

"Morning, sweetie." My mother's voice echoed through my ear drums making my head hurt even more. The pain-killers for sure didn't help.
"Hey, mom." I said and took a sip of my sweet tea.
"Have you started packing?" She asked me kindly, her anger has turned into kindness these past few days.
"Um, no?" I simply answered her question.
"Well, then you should start packing tomorrow. We'll have to leave in the morning on Friday." She informed me.
"I will, don't worry." I said.

I felt my left cheek vibrate. What the-. I took out my phone and checked my notifications.

From Ethan 😈😝 : Come outside ;)*

"I'm heading to school." I simply told my mother and stood up from my chair as I placed the half-way finished cup of tea on the table.
"But it's only 7.24 a.m." My mother said confused. I just shrugged and walked out the front door.

"Hey, babe." Ethan spoke in his low voice as I climbed in the passenger seat of his beautiful car. A blush already rose on my cheeks.
"Hi." I softly replied as he started the car in one swift turn to the side of the car key.
"You're an early bird, huh?" I asked him since he picked me up early today. He just shrugged with a soft smile playing on his perfect lips.
"I just wanted to eat breakfast with my girl." He said as he parked his car in a parking lot of a pretty looking café.
"Lets go, you worm." He said and ran out of the car. I softly chuckled and got out of the car. Once I closed the car door, the car locked itself.

I went inside the café and I was amazed. The walls were covered in dark red bricks. The floor was dark wood. On the walls fairy lights could be seen softly shinning. There were green plants on almost each corner and on almost each shelf. It was all so aesthetic to say the least.

The line wasn't as big as I expected it to be since this place is so cute and, from what I've heard, the food was just fantastic. I spotted Ethan already standing in the line. I went up to him and hugged his torso from behind, my head resting on his back.

"Get me sweat tea and a chickned sandwich." I told him, earning a chuckle and a nod from him. I was satisfied with his reaction and went to sit at a table.

I chose a cute little booth beside the window. I sat on one side so Ethan will have to sit on the other side. I admired the little café and soon enough Ethan came and sat in front of me, on the other side. We just sat there in comfortable silence. I stopped admiring the cafè and averted my gaze to Ethan. My eyes met his instantly. His eyes were already admiring me. Yet again, I blushed. It only takes his look to make me feel special.

"Our orders will be here in a bit." Ethan softly said as his cheek rested on the palm of his hand. I nodded in understandment.
"Won't we be late for school though?" I asked him. He let out a deep but short chuckle.
"I'm sure we won't." He simply replied and softly took my hand in his big one.
"Here come the most amazing creations I've ever seen in my entire life." Ethan said as a waitress came with our orders.
"I'm right here yet you're still looking at food." I said and acted as if I was offended.
"Sorry, babe, you'll need to step up your game." He said and chuckled as the waitress walked away.
"Dig in, fattie." I said to him in a joking manner. He shrugged with a goofy smile on his face and started eating his cheese burger. How can he eat a burger for breakfast? I ate my chicken sandwich and appreciated every bite that I took. Ethan ate his breakfast in like 5 minutes while I was still not done with mine.

"You're so slow!" Ethan said as he dragged out the letter 'o'. I softly laughed.
"You called me a worm, shush." I said as I finished my sandwich and my tea.

"Here's your check. Just leave the money on the table and have a nice rest of the day." The waitress came, informed us and walked away to the other customers.

"20$ huh." I said as I looked at the pay check. Ethan got out his wallet.
"I'm paying." He sternly said and placed a twenty dollar bill on the pay check.
"I'm gonna pay too!" I argued. He laughed making me feel confused.
"You left your wallet in the car, babe." He said as he got out of the booth.
"Wha-" I said and patted my pockets only to find my phone.
"Ah fudge nuggets." I said clearly upset. Ethan blessed my ears with his amazing laugh. He took my hand in his and interwined our fingers as we walked out of the café.
"Fudge nuggets? Seriously, Lex?" He simply said as he unlocked the car. I laughed at my words that I previously said. He shook his head and we got in the car.

Ethan put the keys in ignition and started the car. He pulled out of the parking lot and we started driving to school. He's such a good driver, I swear.

"I like your outfit today." He spoke with a smirk plastered on his face. I squinted my eyes at his perfect facial features.
"Thank y-" Before I was able to finish my sentence, the words that fell out of his mouth shocked me.

"They would look even better on my bedroom floor."
