The shower used to be a place for singing, but now it's a place for making life decisions.

Ryan and Skye...

It just absolutely baffled me to believe that they were twins.

I hopped out of the shower and dressed in a pair of plain leggings and threw over an oversized beige sweater which read "Canada" on the front. I slipped on my boots which matched the colour of the sweater. I popped my hair in a ponytail and tied a ribbon in it. I was so comfortable.

I grabbed my bag and shoved in all the necessities for the day. I quickly ran downstairs and into my car to grab the most important thing in my life.

Yep, you guessed it.

Anita's famous cappuccinos.

When I parked and walked in, I noticed something odd.

Oh Jesus.

Please no.

This is so devastating.

Anita wasn't at her usual cash register, fake smilingly to those customers she didn't like or running around like a crazy Italian women, trying to get orders done.

She is the only one who makes my cappuccino to perfection.

Where on mother's earth was she?

Without second thinking, I walked straight out of the McDonald's and went to my car.

Disappointed was an understatement. I was devastated.

I drove to school, without my cappuccino. I parked my car and walked into the halls of a dull building.

I had English class first period. Don't get me wrong, I love English. I just hate when the English teacher over-anylises everthing. Honestly, it gives me a headache. 

I walked into the classroom and my eyes automatically met one person in that classroom.

Ryan.

We stared at each other for a good minute until he gave me a small smile and looked down towards his notebook to write something down.

It's pretty hilarious if you think about it. Like seriously, all I do is think about him but don't even like him, one single bit. Right?

Yeah, whatever floats your boat, Alexis,

I left my confused thoughts and went to sit down. I pulled out everything I needed for class and waited for the teacher.

After a few minutes of just sitting there, I felt a tap on my back. I turned around to find Ryan smiling like an idiot. It was cute though.

"Hey"

Wait, wasn't he sitting on the other side of the classroom?

"Hi?"

"Why so confused for?"

"It's just that...uh...why are you...uh sitting behind me?"

"It's a free country"

His reply left me dumbfound.

"Oh"

Oh? Really Alexis? That's the best you could do? Way to embarrass yourself.

He chuckled and shook his head.

"Why are you shaking your head?"

His smile grew wider.

"I don't know. I guess you're really something special Alexis Harrington"

And with that, I was left speechless.
