"Freya!", I hear Shawn shout from upstairs.
"Yeah, what's up?", I shout back at him. I hear footsteps ascend down the stairs and he walks into the living room, where i'm sat on the sofa.
"Boss just called, he needs me to be at work earlier so I need to get going", he informs me.
"Okay, I'll see you after I get back?", I question him.
"Yeah of course", he replies back to me. I stand up and wrap my arms around his waist. I feel him place a gentle kiss on the top of my head and I let go of him. I tilt my head up and plant a soft kiss to his lips.
"I'll see you later", he says to me after we break apart. He give him a wide smile and turn to sit back down on the sofa. He leaves the room and not so long after I hear the front door shut. I put my long legs up on the coffee table and I slowly close my eyes. A soft sigh escapes my mouth.
My eyes jolt open at the sound of the front door opening once again. "I love you!" I hear Shawn shout from the front door. I let out a small chuckle and walk to the door.
"I love you too, but what's with the sudden outburst?", I ask whilst letting out a slight laugh.
"I just forgot to tell you before I left", he says shyly. I walk towards him and I give him a quick kiss before pushing him out of the door.
"You don't wanna be late babe", I tell him and he flashes me a perfect smile. I smile back at him and he shuts the door and makes his way down the driveway.
I walk back into the living room and I pick my phone up from the table in the middle. I read the time and it's 7:30. The first class isn't until 10am but I need to be there earlier to get some things ready. I unlock my phone and call Sadie knowing that Camila would be driving so she wouldn't be able to pick the phone up.
"Hi, are you picking me up today?", I ask her once she answers.
"Yeah, me and Mila are on our way", she replies from the other end of the phone.
"Okay great, where are you?", I ask her.
"I have no idea", she replies.
"How do you not know where you are? You take the same route nearly everyday", I say back to her whilst letting out a laugh.
"Sorry that I don't memorise the street names", she says sarcastically.
"Ask Camila", I tell her.
I hear faint mumbling through the phone and I assume that she's asking Camila. "Have you asked her yet?", I ask after some time.
"Yeah, two secs", she replies effortlessly. I hear more mumbling and I roll my eyes even though I know that she can't see me.
"Camila doesn't know either", she replies after the mumbling has stopped.
"Ugh okay, don't leave my waiting", I tell her. She responds with a hum and I know that they are lying.
"Here's your meal", I hear an unfamiliar voice say in the background.
"Oh my god, Sadie are you at McDonald's?", I ask her.
"Oh shit", I hear her say quietly.
"It's 7:30 Sadie, It's breakfast time", I tell her with a hint of humour.
"Yeah and that's why we are getting a McDonald's breakfast", she tells me whilst trying to be smart.
"Why am I not surprised?", I ask more to myself than anyone else. I hear two sets of laughter and then Camila speaks up. "We won't be long", she says.
"Okay, hurry up", I tell them before ending the phone call. I walk out of the living room and go towards the shoe cabinet under the stairs. I grab my shoes knowing that they will be about five minutes. I sit at the bottom of the stairs and I put my feet in my shoes and tie the laces.
I stay sat down and I reach for my phone in my jumper pocket. I smile at the photo of my and Shawn on my
lock screen and I unlock it. After five minutes of scrolling down my Instagram feed I hear a knock on the door. I make my way over to it and open it."Hi, you ready to go?", Camila asks me from the other side of the door. Sadie is stood next to her with a large McDonald's drink in her right hand.
"Yeah", I reply back to her as I walk outside. I shut the door behind me and I grab my keys from my back pocket. I quickly lock my door and we walk down the driveway and into the car.
I sit in the back this time and Camila is obviously driving like usual. We reach the familiar building of my company in no time. The car ride was filled with little chats and us singing along to the One Direction CD. We make our way into the massive building and I see Lauren walking across the reception.
"Laur, what are you doing here this early?", I ask her.
"Just catching up on some forms that I have to fill out", she replies smiling at us all.
"Oh god, I have to do them as well", Camila says to no one in particular. "Can I join you?", she asks Lauren.
"Yeah of course", Lauren replies. I watch them as they walk towards the offices.
"When are them two not together?", I ask Sadie jokingly behind me. I turn around and Sadie isn't even there and I'm on my own. "Looks like I'm talking to myself", I mumble.
I walk down the long corridor and enter my office. I sit down and prepare myself for the long day of work ahead of me.

"Well it wasn't exactly a graceful fall Mila", Harry says whilst laughing. Everyone else around the table laughs and I look over to Camila. She rolls her eyes however still smiling to show that she's going along with the joke.
It's currently 12:30 and we are on our lunch break laughing about funny college moments. The laughter dies down around the table and we eat our lunch around the table in silence.
"Girls, do you want to come room to mine and Shawn's tonight?", I ask them.
"What about us lads?", Louis asks jokingly whilst glancing at Harry next to him.
"I don't think that my boyfriend will appreciate that Lou", I say to him whilst laughing. "What'd you guys say?", I ask the girls whilst turning my attention towards them.
"Yeah of course", Hannah says from beside me. The rest of the girls agree and Louis keeps saying how it's "sexist" ,which earns a laugh from everyone.
"I have a class now but I'll see some of you later", I say whilst glaring playfully at Louis as I say 'some'
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••
The day goes by relatively quickly and by no time I'm at the shop buying some food for me and the girls tonight. I'm in the freezer isle, looking for some frozen chips and I feel someone tap my shoulder from behind. I turn around and I see an older women staring at me as if she's trying to figure something out.
"Mmm, are you okay?", I ask the unknown women questionably.
"Are you Freya Dawson?"
