Girl in the Hoodie ||Raura||

Thirteen

It's Monday morning, I stayed at Laura's all weekend. It was pretty awesome, Italian dinners and making music during the day and night was pretty rememorable. Laura was awesome company, she genuinely does seem to understand me.

I'd say, me and her get on like a house on fire, an old saying my mom taught me when I was younger.

Even her parents get along with me pretty well, and that is saying a lot since Laura hardly ever has people over. She never does in saying that.

So I'm quite honoured that I gotta stay the weekend at her place. My mom was really cool about it too.

Walking down the long road to school, Laura & I did walk side-by-side. She had her hoodie on as usual, skinny jeans and her black converse with her addidas backpack.

"So what is going to happen within the school walls, we talking or writing to each other?" She looks at me as if I'm stupid.

"We can talk, but anyone probably won't get an answer outta me because you know they haven't gained my trust. You've been doing it for weeks and literally just spent the weekend at my place, and my parents like you. Which means, we're good.

I nod, happy with the result.

"Okay cool, school lunch or eat out?" She shrugs for a moment whilst taking her phone outta back pocket.

"My mum has just texted me, asking if I can come home after school and bring you with me?" I'm surprised by the request, but I don't decline, mainly because I'd love to go back to Laura's again.

"Really, what you gonna say?" She shrugs once more.

"Laura?" She looks at me smiling, biting her lip slightly.

"I want to, but it all depends if you wanna come back?" I smile back at her.

"When are we heading back then?" She jumped for joy and texted her mother back.

Being excited, we leave the school grounds. Today was pretty good, no pop quizzes & no tests.

Lunch was good, pepperoni pizza with extra cheese, yummy. School actually flew by today for a change.

But knowing I was in for a week of greatness. Because it's been discussed that we escape school, once it's finished of course and head straight for Laura's place for the minimum hour or two, then I head home for dinner and a quick shower and I'm back at Laura's for a few hours because returning home for bed to get into the next day.

It's all fun & games when you attempt to plan it out, now the interesting part is whether it'll all work out.

As we head park outside the house, Laura's of course. Her parents are standing at the door, patiently waiting. Smiles upon their enchanting faces, so pleased looking.

"Laura, we have exciting news" I stare at Laura, just watching her reaction. She simple smiles and waits for her parents to continue on with their announcements.

"And?" the mother squeals and tell the dad to tell us what is going on.

"We are going on holiday, and it's in Canada. And to be honest, I'm glad Ross is here too, because we were planning on asking him if he wanted to join us" Laura & I look at each other seriously shocked.

"When did we last go on holiday you two?" They both looked at each other and nodded.

"We haven't been in a few years, but we wanted to start a tradition and since Ross seems to be apart of your life, like rather hugely. We thought he might like to be apart of it, of course if it's okay with your parents?" I nod, I was really honoured.

"I'll text my mother and ask" They shake their heads at my suggestion.

"Nonsense, Laura's dear father will go and pick her up and bring her back here for dinner. That way we can have a proper discussion about the whole thing, so just give him the address and he'll be on his way" I nod, quickly mailing my mother to be ready for a quick car ride.

"Okay, I've at least let her know she is getting picked up so to be ready incase" Afterwards, I passed my address onto Laura's dad and he was away in the car.

This is going to be pretty exciting.
