"Crap!" Jake looks at his phone "I gotta go!" He takes his sandwich into his hand and runs out of the kitchen while putting his shoes on "I really don't want to be late" He mumbles.

I shake my head "I told you to wake up earlier"

"Maybe you did, but do you really think I'm bothered to do so on the last day?" He questions.

"I wouldn't be and I would definitely do the same thing" Max nods while smiling.

Jake laughs "Then I'm not the only one"

"Right" I roll my eyes.

Jake opens the front door in a quick motion "Bye Alex, bye Max! I'll see you later!"

"Bye Jake!" I wave.

"See you later, big man" Max winks.

Jake walks out, however he looks back and smiles at me "Don't forget to take your medicine!"

I nod and smile.

He closes the doors and runs towards the car, where inside dad is waiting for Jake. They drive away within seconds.

Last night everyone stayed over, however today morning they all got ready and left since they need to either help their parents or go shopping or other 'family stuff'.

Guess who stayed....Yes it's Max as you already noticed.

'Why is my dad letting him stay? And most importantly why is dad trusting him? Gosh' I think to myself.

I look at him and shake my head.

He sips orange juice while going through his phone and soon enough he looks up at me "How can I help?" He smiles "Can't stop staring?" A raised brow.

I let out an unbelievable laugh "As if" I sit down next to him "Aren't your parents worried?" I take out the medicine.

"Nope" He simply answers "They aren't even in UK right now"

"Really?"

He nods.

"So where are they?" I ask curious.

"Canada" Again it sound like nothing for him, boring tone in his voice.

'Wow. Just wow'

I nod, take the medicine and glup it down with some water "Do they leave often?"

"Yeah, all the time" He nods.

"Oh"

"It's alright through, I got used to it" He gives me an assuring smile.

I nod and smile back.

I take my phone and look through social media-nothing new. Just as I'm about to lock my phone I see that Max added something on his snapchat story so I click on it.

The phone nearly falls out of my hand as my eyes grow wide.

I see a picture of myself and in it I am sleeping. It is clearly taken in the hospital while I was asleep, my head on Max's chest as his chin is on top of my head. Both us us in the same bed-people may get the wrong idea/message.
