So sorry i havent updated in ages but i had 2 projects to catch up on then school started and they've been all like i know your like yr 9 but your ready for gcse stuff (like wtf!) and i have a important science test  which determines which gcse revision set i go into coz i write my one of my gcse tests this year! yeh.....already...and our history teacher is all like i am upping the level you are working at to gcse(wtf again!) and....then our drainage system went on the fritz at home!!! 2011 so not looking good right now.! sorry had to release all that.!

======================== 

I woke up and immediately realised I was alone in the bed after stretching out my arms and legs. I looked around and out the open window. It was...snowing. Great, but it wasn't deep enough yet that we wouldn't be able to get out of the house. I just hope it stops soon.

I love the snow but I don't want to be snowed in THIS house. I looked at the clock beside me and the numbers 9:45 flashed back at me. Wow. Early.

I shrugged and walked over to the bathroom to take a shower. Sluggishly, I walked up to the sink and noticed the toothpaste next to it but I really needed a toothbrush. So I opened the little cabinet in front of me and pulled out the bandages, razors, shaving cream, CONDOMS!! 

I quickly put those down and looked through it again until I found an unopened toothbrush. After I finished brushing my teeth I put it in the little bin because it's not like I was going to stay here and use it. Please, and I went to take a shower. 

There was only Men's shower gel and Men's shampoo so I had to make do with that but I did have to admit it smelled pretty good and reminded me of Chris.

No! 

I stepped out and covered myself with a towel I found in the closet and walked out to see some clothes on the bed. I walked over to them and saw the note on top:

Hey Hailey,

I came in to give you some clothes to wear for today but you weren't in here. I wondered where you went but then I realised that of course it was obvious you went to take a shower. How silly of me!! So, anyway these clothes are for today and after your dressed we can go to town and go shop 'till we drop! After breakfast of course though the most important meal of the day! 

My GOSH! She doesn't even stop babbling in a letter!! A letter people! I sighed and stooped down to pick up the dress. It had thin black straps and was black until the bottom of my chest and then had a thick purple strip then another thinner yellow strip with another black strip at the bottom. 

I twirled around, well as good as you can with a busted ankle, in front of the mirror and the dress actually looked good. And was a good fit.

I walked back to where she had left the dress to see if she had left any shoes and saw some flat gold sandals. Good thing they were flat. 

Then I looked through the drawers until I found a blank piece of paper and a pen and scribbled down a quick note that I would put in Chris' mum's bag before I 'ran'. 

To Jane,

I am so very sorry that I just left like that but I had to escape. I am so sorry.                                               Forgive me, 

Hailey x

P.S. Thankyou for the outfit! I'll give it back as soon as possible.

I took a deep breath whilst folding the paper in half then in half again. 

Time to do this.

======================================

"This is a nice dress don't you think?" Jane said right beside me. Huh?

We were in New Look in Camberely and it was really busy and crowded it was the perfect place to escape. But I was really shocked at how full it was in here considering it was a school day. It turned out Chris had gone to school that little idiot. It was now Wednesday. If I remember correctly...

"Yeah! It's nice. You should go try it on!" I said enthusiastically. Not really but I'm a good actor I guess if she bought it. 

"No! I have already tried on enough! You haven't though. You haven't even bought anything, if you're worried about money we told you it's OK! Spend as much as you like!" 

It's time.

"Ok....Umm, oh look at that dress over there! Let me just go look at it and you have got to try this dress on you. I bet you would look stunning!" I said and I pulled out the letter and stuffed it in her purse whilst I grabbed the dress and pushed it at her.

She blushed, nodded and walked away to the fitting rooms. She had given me £50 before hand in case she wasn't there when I saw something good in a shop.

I said a quick apology in my head and made my way towards the exit and out the shop. I had been to Camberley before but not a lot of times so I had to ask many people for directions towards the train station and was relieved when I finally got there. It was a long walk and my ankle had started to swell up. That isn't good. 

After getting on the train that has one of it's stops as Aldershot, I collapsed on the red and yellow seat and raised my leg on the matching seat opposite me. 

I looked out the window at the trees that passed by in a blur and Chris popped into my mind. With his deep blue eyes twinkled every time he looked at me and the way his eyes crinkled at the corners when he smiled.

"Aldershot, approaching station is Aldershot." A voice said above my head.

I got up and limped over to the doors at the end and held the rails for support. 

The train shuddered to a halt and I pressed the button at the side to open them...

"Chris?!"

====================================

i dunno if its long but it seemed like a good place to stop :D and im hungry. x
