Sing to me

Stephanie's pov

So here I am walking out the place I once dreaded with a boys number now etched into the contacts in my phone.
Something about him made my stomach swirl, I know it's cliche and stupid and I'm being naive but I can't help but swoon when I think of him. His confidence, his smile and his beautiful voice. I can't help but giggle to myself as I simply can't stop smiling.

I walk along the wet pavement, each foot patting the ground with a step. I haven't been the luckiest the past couple years, nothing drastically horrible has happened, like having some crackhead abusive mother, but I don't know, everything just feels bland and like there's no point when every day merges together.

Sometimes, little things like a cute boy giving me his phone number at a cafe get my heart racing, they make me have some hope that my life won't be bland anymore and instead it will be a more spicy adventure. I know he probably won't text me, but still just knowing that someone took the time to talk to me warmed my heart.

Eventually I'm outside my house. I reach into my bag to get my keys. I unlock the door and swiftly yell out "I'm home!"
I walk into the kitchen to see my mum reading on her iPad on the bar stools.
I put down my keys and smile.
"Hey mumma" I sat with a weak grin
"Hey Stephie, did u sought it out with molly?" She asks with a kind face.
Molly is my best friend, Well now my ex best friend. We got in a fight because one night I didn't want to go out and she thought I was a buzzkill and she ended up going completely psycho on me. I tried to figure it out because to be honest, I hate losing friendships. It's like stripping away all the hard work you've done to build trust and only making you do it again to watch it fail once more. I always try to savour a friendship even if I'm angry at the person because I literally cannot stand drama.

"I just don't think she's going to listen to me" I tell my mum almost in tears.
She sighs and pulls me into hug.
"What did I do wrong?" I ask her now fully crying.
"Nothing love, sometimes people just out grow each other. Leave her, she doesn't deserve you but do remember all of the good times and try to not to hold things against her because she may realise she's made a mistake" my mum says whilst running my forehead soothingly.
Although her words were sweet, this did not stop me from furthering into my breakdown for another two hours.

Two hours later I finally started to calm down. I wiped away my tears before going up to take a shower. I walk into my room and into my en-suite. I turn on the shower and get undressed before coming through my long dark hair and getting into the hot water. The warm droplets dribble down my back and form a puddle at my feet. An immediate satisfaction of relaxation consumers me. I sigh and rest my head back against the tiles before washing my hair.

After my shower I changed into my pjs and towel dry my hair. I walk onto my balcony connecting to my room and feel the breeze surround me. I look up to see millions of tiny stars shining down, lighting up the pitch black sky. After awhile it starts to get cold and I go back to bed. I walk into my room and get into bed. I grab my phone to check my messages before I sleep.
