I awoke the next morning with an awful headache, and my throat felt like it was on fire. I sat up and rubbed my head lazily. I glanced over at my clock to see the time.

1:43 p.m.

I yelped and jumped out of bed. What the hell! I ran to the bathroom to get ready and dressed, throwing on random clothes. I have to go to class!

I have high school, as I'm 17 and a senior. Class started hours ago. I ran a hand through my messy hair as I yanked on some sweatpants and put my hair up as quick as I could.

I grabbed my earrings, necklace, car keys, and wallet before running out the door. I hopped into my Jeep, and started the engine as soon as I got inside. Today was not going as planned.

I finally got to school, out of breath. I ran through the hall, and peeked into my math class. It seemed to be a quiet work time. Perfect, a chance to sneak in discreetly. I slowly opened to door and started tiptoeing to my seat in the back.

"Ah, Aurora. I see you finally decided to join us?" My teacher asked. I cursed under my breath and slowly turned around.

"Miss, I am so so so sorry. I forgot to set my alarm and I couldn't go to sleep last night so I was so tired and I-"

"Enough, Aurora. It's fine. Please take your seat. quietly." She said. I quickly sighed in relief, but suddenly became aware that every single student was staring at me. My face turned beet red and I slowly slid into my seat, pulling out my things. I hid my face behind my hand as I heard snickers. I gave the direction it came from death stares, and the giggling stopped. Today officially is the worst day. Ever.

I finally got home, and fell into my bed. I looked over to realize I had left my phone at home all day. I rolled over lazily to grab it.

Hamzah💕 : 9:02 a.m.

Hamzah💕 : 9:35

Hamzah💕 : 12:47 p.m.
I'm sorry. for whatever i did. i know the stream was embarrassing and i get that your mad at me. it's okay if you don't wanna be friends anymore

My eyes widened at his texts. I opened the chat as fast as humanly possible and started typing.

Me

Me
trust me i'm not mad at you i would never be

The typing icon appeared almost immediately on his end.

Hamzah💕
thank God i don't know what i would do without you :(

I could feel the blood flow to my cheeks as my face turned bright red.

Hamzah💕
you sure ur not mad?

Me
i could never be mad at you

I sighed as he sent one last smiley face. What did I do to deserve a friend like this?
That's when I realized, that's probably all I'll ever be to him. Just a dumb little friend. I felt tears gather in my eyes, from the frustration with my relationship with Hamzah, from the embarrassment at school, from the absent parents. I couldn't help it. I let out sobs and curled into a ball, drifting into a quiet sleep.
