*BEEP BEEP BEEP*
I lazily reach my arm over to hit my 6:00am alarm off. Stupidly I hit the bedside table instead. The sharp stinging pain that ran up the side of my hand was enough to wake me up.

You're probably wondering why I'm up at 6:00am on a Saturday and to be honest, I normally would be asking myself the same question, but today is a special day. This is a day that decides as to whether my future goes to plan or turns to a pile of shit so I needed to be ready to hear either the greatest or worse news of my life.

I deep sigh as I swing my legs over so my feet are touching the ground but I'm still sat on the bed as I rub my eyes causing the mascara from the day before to smudge. I had a bit of a migraine.My oversized black shirt was hanging off my left shoulder and was long enough to cover my shorts. My hair was still in a messy bun but it needed a wash. I pushed myself up off of my bed to open my light grey coloured curtains, as I did the sun pierced through causing me to inhale a sharp breath through my teeth as it hit my eyes. When I regained vision I turned back around and made my bed.

I don't normally wake up this early, so the orange rays of the sun made my room look really nice. It made my oakwood floors look shiny, it also made my grey coloured double bed look extra comfortable making me want to just curl myself up in my covers again. The sun reflected off my pictures that I had on my wall, I hadn't looked at these pictures in a while. They were pictures of me and my best friend, charley. She went missing last year and no one knew why, she wouldn't of ran away, she had an amazing life with a boyfriend and parents who loved her, no one knows where she is. All I know, is that I miss her.

From the orange sun not fully risen yet I had also realised what a nice view I had. If I got the good news today, I wouldn't have this view much longer, so just incase I didn't, I opened up my bifold doors and stepped out onto my balcony. I looked like shit but I didn't care. I closed my eyes and took a deep breathe through my nose which actually helped clear my migraine a bit, the warm rays of the sun hit my skin making me just feel...present.

After the decent start to my morning apart from hitting my hand and thinking about Charley, I decided to take a shower. I took off all my clothes and stepped inside. The hot water ran down my skin making me feel more fresh already. Then I felt a sharp stinging pain on my hand causing me to shoot my eyes open, realising that the part I hit on my bedside table was covered in a purple bruise from my wrist to halfway up my little finger. I decided to ignore it and just carry on.

As I stepped out the shower I was just hit with a fog of steam. I wrapped myself in a towel and rubbed of the steam that was on the mirror. I wiped off the excess makeup and got dressed.
