Alex

I was looking through my snapchat stories and saw Elena had posted a picture of Ryan sleeping in bed beside her. I'm glad they worked things out, I miss them so much. 

I clicked on Graysons story and saw a picture of broken class with a rolling eyes emoji. I slid up and asked him what happened, wondering if he was going to respond. 

Within a second, I saw his name show up and him typing. 

Grayson - Ethan happened

me - oh.

Grayson - he's had a stick up his ass lately. 

me - oh.

Grayson - what's with all the "oh's?" 

me - just not surprised I guess. 

Grayson - if you ever want to talk about what happened im here.

I locked my my phone back and set it beside me. That is not something I should have started my day off to.

My door was cracked and I heard someone lightly knock. "Yeah," I replied, and the door opened a little. "'Breakfast." I saw Jordyn standing there with a smile. 

I rolled my eyes at him playfully. He walked over to my bed and held out his hand. I reluctantly took it and walked downstairs with him.

"You don't have to keep holding my hand you know. I'm fine." I laughed looking down at our intertwined fingers.

"It's for my benefit too." he smiled and I laughed. We sat at the table and I saw Hazel walk up to me. "Good morning." she chirped, and handed me coffee and waffles. 

Jordyn sat down beside me with a cup of coffee. I looked across from us and it was the mean guy, and jess, and some other dude. I need to stop referring to him as 'guy.' But then again, we never discussed names.

The guy looked over at me with furrowed brows when he saw me and Jordyns hands. We don't like each other like that, but now he made me feel weird about it. 

I removed my hand from Jordyns and picked up my coffee and took a sip. "You need to try and eat." he mothered me, pointing to my plate. 

"Fine," I smiled cutting a piece of my waffle and putting it in my mouth. To my surprise, I wasn't completely grossed out by it. 

I managed to eat the whole thing by the end of breakfast. Hazel and Jordyn were really happy about it. 

I saw Larce appear from his study and walked over to him. "Hey, do you know of any stores around here?" I asked him, and he looked at me confused. "I just dont have any training clothes here, and I need some." I explained to him.

"There's no need. Andrews, come here." He yelled and I turned around seeing the tall guy I so fondly remember walking towards us. 

"For the love of god." I mumbled, causing Larce to look at me and smile.It's like he enjoys torturing me. "Take her downstairs so she can get training clothes." He looked at him and he nodded.
