The reunion

An old friend.

I awoke to the sound of my phone , harshly ringing down my ear. I sighed deeply but before I could grab it the call cut off  and a message came through.
Weird I thought calls usually last longer then that.
I brushed it off presuming it was just an accidental call.

I grabbed my phone off the bed side table to see if I recognise the number but boy would I regret doing so.

(Ignore the time I can't change it x )

Will I thought curiously, honestly surprised that I'd kept his number I guess I just changed the name and tried to forget.

I knew it wasn't just an accident that he'd called me there was something he needed to say but I really wasn't in the mood to attempt conversation right now so I just ignored it.

I rubbed my face noticing it was covered in stinging splotches and grabbed my phone checking the time. 8:30. I wished more then anything that I could take a long relaxing bath again but I had work at 10 so that wasn't gonna happen. Instead I threw on a large hoodie and walked to the kitchen getting myself something to eat.
I pushed the bread down into the toaster and eagerly awaited it to pop back up.

I slumped on the sofa and opened my laptop going on to YouTube to find something to watch while I finished breakfast.
Willne : i gave George my tinder.
Willne : this week on the internet.
Willne: we need to stop morgz mom.

His videos flooded my recommended making me slam the lid of my laptop down angrily.
"I think that's enough YouTube for one day" I muttered to myself finishing off my toast.
I just decided to give up and go and get ready for work.

I had a shower and did some light makeup ,just to try and make myself feel better, and walked into my room glancing at the plain uniform that was just sprawled along a chair. I put it on and looked in the mirror trying to make myself look a bit more presentable. I held my hair out of my face telling myself that the trauma of the last few days would all be over soon though I longed to see Alex and George and in some ways Will too. Work was just another thing that I had to face dragging me down.

Just as I was about to leave I felt my phone start to ring  in my back pocket , I just knew it was gonna be Will so I didn't even check I just swung the phone up to my ear and bluntly snapped " what do you want?" 
My heart sank when I heard a voice that I didn't quite recognise.
"Um excuse me I almost felt guilty telling you that your pay was going to have to wait till next week"

Shit I thought checking the number, it was my boss.
"No , no , no ,no I'm so sorry i thought you wer.."
"Save it , your fired gave you your chance"and with that the angry woman hung up the phone leaving me alone in my bedroom.
And even though I didn't care.

I didn't care in the slightest I hated work.

I crumbled to the ground and burst into tears. It was all too much. Seeing everyone for the first time in years , Will continuing to be an arsehole , feelings resurfacing and now this I didn't know how much longer I could hold on.

And that's when it hit me at times like this there was someone I could always rely on. A very old friend that always had my back.
So I picked up my phone and scrolled through the contacts until I found the name Stephen x  and hit call.

" hi ste it's me"
