The sound of my alarm echos through my room. Opening my eyes, I quickly cover my face with my hands and let out a huge groan. I swing my legs over the bed, and put on my slippers which are on the floor beside my bed
I put my hand over my forehead since I have a massive headache, I sigh and walk into the living room to see Blake passed out still from earlier
'Should I wake him? What if he's got classes today?' I think watching the boy with his legs sprawled out on the couch and his face squished against the pillow.
"Blakeee" I say shaking rubbing his shoulder to wake him
"Hmm" he mumbles squinting his eyes open, looking up at me with a confused expression across his face
"It's 8:30am so I just wanted to wake you incase you've got a class soon" I look down at him smiling, he sits up rubbing his eyes then brushing a hand through his hair
"Oh fuck yeah I've got one at 9:30 but I need a shower now" he laughs still slightly drunk pressing his hand to his forehead as he stumbles into the bathroom.
I decide to make us some breakfast because we could both do with some food to try and help with our hangovers, I take a paracetamol and make some toast for us because I'm not in the mood to make a full english
10 minutes later Blake walks out the bathroom with a towel loosely wrapped around his waist, beads of water dripping down his shoulders and hair sticking to his forehead which he uses a hand to brush back
"Toast?" I say holding up a plate with freshly made toast on, his eyes light up as he sees it,
"Oh god yes thank you" He replies as I pass him the plate, he smiles and takes a bite out of the buttery toast as he goes into his room to go and get ready for the busy day ahead of him.

My lecture had finished an hour ago but I've decided to go on a little walk around London, the whole time I've been here I've never actually explored around the place I'm living in.
I grab my phone and put my earphones in and play the 1975 abiior album on full blast blocking out the sound of people and busy traffic,
I mumble a few apologies as I walk through the crowd of people only to receive snarls in return, today is the day I learnt most people in London are very rude.
My legs begin to get tired due to walking through London for a few hours, I go to the nearest cafe and sit down, I order a coffee and take my phone out to ask if dylan wants to meet me since he hasn't spoken to me all day
"Hello?" I say down my phone as the ringing stops
"Hey lil" he says frustrated, he's breathing loudly just like he's been on a jog, I guess he's just been the gym or something.
"What's up you sound tired?" I reply, the woman comes over and places the cup of coffee on the table I reply with a thank you and go back to the phone call with Dylan
"Yup I'm very tired" he says laughing but it's not his usual laugh he sounds off...I wonder what's up with him.
"You know what will cure tiredness? Coming to meet me in a cafe and I will buy you a coffee" I smirk childishly down the phone waiting for his response
"Babe, I can't I've got to be up early tomorrow"
"It's only 5pm though" I furrow my eyebrows, knowing it's an excuse because he doesn't have any classes tomorrow.
"I know it's just that I have a busy day and I want to just stay in today"
"Want me to come see you?"
"Nah I'd rather just be alone right now" he yawns, I look down at my coffee and stir the spoon around in it
"Oh okay, are you sure you're feeling alright?" I can tell by his tone he doesn't want to talk to me
"Yeah, I promise" he buttons the phone ending the call leaving me alone with my thoughts in the cafe, I huff placing my phone on the table then take a sip of my coffee
I decide to text blake to see if he wants to do anything, he replies with a 'come meet me at Reece's and George's apartment it's number 7', I stand up taking the last gulp of my coffee and I place it back on the table and walk out back into the London cold breeze
I arrive at their apartment, knocking 3 times on the door to see George open it with a huge smile
"Hey lil" he says opening the door wider so I can come inside, Reece is sitting on the couch with his feet up on the coffee table as he stares into his phone and Blake is in the kitchen making something in the microwave.
"Hey lads" I laugh walking to go sit next to reece, this is my first time in their apartment, it looks like mine but more messier
"Hey lili" Reece says still keeping his eyes on his phone
"What's up with you then?" I say poking Reece's shoulder, he looks up at me confused since he's been zoned out
"Oh just this girl is being annoying"
"What's she doing?"
"She's playing hard to get" he huffs
"That probably means she likes you, i played hard to get for 2 months before I got with Dylan and now I've been with him for 4 years" I smile thinking about the times were Dylan would repeatedly ask me out but I would refuse just to annoy him.
"Let's hope she gives up soon and wants to go on a date with me"
"HES WHIPPED" Blake shouts as he walks into the living room sitting in between Reece and I
