I awoke the next morning to the bird chirping and the sun shining, which was unusual for Glasgow! I sat up in my bed and grabbed my phone. I then noticed a note underneath it saying 'hey, I had to leave early this morning for something. My numbers on the back so text me whenever also can I stay another night?
ps, you look really pretty when you're sleeping'
I giggled and returned the note to my table. I got up once again smelling Michaels top. I sat at my counter with my bowl of cereal and friends on the TV. I text Michael and this was our conversation
"Hey it's Rebekah"
"Hey xx"
"Did you sleep well? Xx"
"Indeed! Your bed is so comfortable! Xx"
"Thanks! So how come you had to rush off xx"
"Oh now that's top secret, but you might find out soon enough!! Xx"
"Can't wait! I'm about to head in the shower so I'll text soon xx"
"Ok, speak soon xx"
And with that I locked my phone say it down and went for a shower.
I do love a good warm shower, it's just after words I hate. The brushing it the hair. Then the drying of the hair. Then the straightening of the hair. It's just too much work.
I had brushed, dried and half way straightened my hair. I was also dressed in black converse, black frilly socks, black thin tights, a black skater skirt and an iron maiden top. I wasn't dressed up for anything special but even though it was sunny it was still freezing outside. I had finished my hair and was on to make up. I was wearing a red lipstick light foundation and very natural eye makeup finished with a cat flick.
It was 2.00 pm and I was heading out to do some shopping at waitrose. Since I had been away in London I hadn't much food in so I just got a little. I got the bus into the town for waitrose and on the way I had text Michael.
"You like pizza right? Xx"
"That's a stupid question! Xx"
"Let me rephrase it... What your favourite kind of pizza? Xx"
"Pepperoni!! Xx"
"Cool, look forward to it tonight xx"
"Can't wait!! See you soon! Xx"

I had arrived and finished my shop rather quickly. I bought two pizzas plain cheese and pepperoni along with a six pack of coka-cola. I had also got some chocolate brownies for pudding. I had also got the basic stuff like milk, bread, more cereal the usual.

It was 4:51 pm by the time I got home and at 5pm on the dot Michael walked in, with rosy cheeks from the wind.
"Hey!" He said breathless
"Hello there" I said unpacking the bags and setting them on the counter
"Need some help" he offered
"If you don't mind" I replied smiling.

We had been unpacking for about 5 minutes as there want a lot.
"And you got cola too!!" He practically shouted.
I nodded smiling.

Later that night we had our pizzas and they were lovely. We had sat beside each other on the couch which was so nice because usually I eat alone. We had watched whatever was on, on tv and it was just so nice.

"I have a little confession" Michael told me
"Go one"
"I've not booked a hotel at all!"
I sniggered
"Do you mind if I stay here!?"
"Stay as long as you want" I said "it's nice having someone else here with me"
