" alright so, I've got 7am rugby with the boys... you okay to get school by yourself?" Will asks me, knocking on my door at 6:45am.

" yeah...whatever" I say, slightly waking myself up.

" Uniforms on landing. Call if you need anything" He says.

" Ok... bye" I tell him, still refusing to open my eyes.

" Bye, have good day" he tells me, before re-shutting my door.

I begin to shut my eyes again, and slowly begin to fall back asleep but before I can my alarm goes off, some how those 15 minutes felt like two.

I pull myself up and grab my phone, turning the annoying alarm off. I slowly pull myself out of my bed and walk out to the landing, where Will said he'd leave my uniform.

I walk back into my room, and place it on my bed before brushing my hair and styling it in a high ponytail and doing minimal makeup like I always do.

I walk down the stairs, still in my Pjs, and straight into the kitchen, where I begin to fix myself some toast and a cuppa tea, placing my phone on the kitchen counter.

All of a sudden, I hear a loud knock on my door which urges me to look out of my window, to see a Cory Wilson, fully dressed standing outside my house.

I walk over to the door, slowly opening it, to where he looks at me and smiles intently.

" Hello" he smiles.

" Why are you here?" I question him, only letting half my body be shown to him.

" I thought I'd pop round, let us in" he smiles, slightly pushing the door open and walking himself in.

" what are you playing at?" I ask him, as he drops his bag onto the floor, and walks into the kitchen.

" I just wanted to come over" he shrugs before sitting down at the kitchen counter.

" Normal people warn someone if their coming over" I say, walking over to the kitchen area to where my toast is around done and the kettle has fully boiled.

" Were not going to school today" He tells me, as I look towards him and see he has my phone in his hands.

" what have you done?" I question him, as he shuts the phone off and places it next to him.

" Just told Mr Simpson that you've decided you don't want to go in" he tells me, with a massive smile plastered across his face.

" I haven't missed a day of school since I was 6. I'm going in" i tell him, walking over to grab my phone.

" Nope" He says, grabbing my phone and placing it down the waistband of his trousers.

" If you want it gotta get it" He tells me, laughing.

" You're a dickhead, and I hope you drown" I say, walking back over to my toast and smiling sarcastically at him.

"Live a little Annie, Run Wild" He tells me as I pull the butter out of the fridge.

" I'm not a horse?" I question his odd wording, shutting the fridge behind me.

" Just for today?" He questions.

" I don't want to be a horse." I tell him as I begin to butter my toast.

" No, for today just do it" He tells me, smiling.

" Fine, but this isn't going to turn into an everyday thing just so you know" I tell him, pointing my knife towards his direction.

"We'll see" he smirks, as I put the butter back into the fridge and walk over to where he is sat and sit beside him.

" Nice gaff this is" He tells me, taking a piece of my toast and looking around.

" Gaff?" I question him, as I've never heard that word before.

" House." He says, as I also pick up a piece of toast and begin to eat it.

We sit I silence for a minute, while we both eat and we quickly finish eating when he speaks up again.

" Whyd you move here anyway?" He questions me, still looking around at the place.

" I-I-I need to get changed." I tell him, standing up and avoiding the subject because that story is a long one.
