When she was 14, Audrey Pullman's parents decided to send her off to boarding school. It wasn't a punishment but a way for Audrey to see the the world, make new friends and for her parents to catch up on months of unfinished work in the business the...

I still haven't told anyone about my interactions with Felix. Especially Morgan. I know it's wrong because she's my best friend of course but she's always been one to not keep big announcements private.
And from what I've learned, Felix has always been a trouble maker. Charming, but he's quite popular around school. Hence why it still shocks me that I've never met him until now.
I'll tell Morgan eventually though. That is, if Felix and I will still have this thing going on between us.

The extremely loud beeping of the alarm forces me to reach over and turn it off. It's six o' clock in the morning and like the beginning of everyday, it's cold and foggy.
Morgan is still snoozing so I quietly walk over to our shared bathroom. Brushing my hair and teeth then deciding to just leave it down today.
I pack my day bag with everything I need. Last year for Christmas, my mum gifted me a brown leather bag to hold all my school supplies in.
Inside, I insert my text books, pens, a reading book and a notebook. I then open the shades to my window to let some light in.
Morgan's alarm goes off for 6:30 and she starts to wake up. "Morning." I smirk. She groans while stretching. "What's got you in a mood." She says groggily.
"I guess you could say I'm excited." I laugh, closing my bag. "It's only Wednesday though." "Exactly the point."

I finally put my uniform on and wait for Morgan to finish getting ready. "Morgs hurry up!" "Breakfast starts in ten minutes!" Just then the bathroom door opens with Morgan in her uniform and ready to go. "Finally." I sigh, putting my bag over my shoulder.
—
"Why does breakfast start so early?" She questions. "You mean 7:20?" I snort. "It's not that early if you really think about it Morgs." "Besides, it's not like we have anything to do before class starts, the dorms are boring anyway." I explain, chewing on toast.
"Ok I don't know this Audrey." "You seem so happy and energetic." "Not only that, for school." She laughs. I grin while looking down. If only she knew the real reason behind it.

Domesdale has always been a school that encourages breaks. And I mean a lot of them. We get thirty minute long breaks in between each of our classes. It's quite wonderful actually.
Your supposed to use all this extra time for studying your previous class or do homework but knowing me, I do the exact opposite.
These past few days I've ditched Morgan to be around Felix. I know I might be becoming a terrible friend but he's so.. addictive.
From chasing each other around in the gardens like little children, to kissing in trees and having the longest conversations, he's somehow compelling. I've never felt like this. Especially with someone like him.

"Are you sure?" "I've been ditching you all this time." I say reassuring her. "It's fine, I swear." "Besides, Mrs. Monet wants me to tutor Charlotte in Maths." She rolls her eyes at the thought of the rich and bratty girl.
"But I swear, we'll hang out after school she says." She tells me. I nod. "Well have fun with her." I say with fake enthusiasm. She laughs and then walks away, over to the benches in the courtyard.

I turn a page on the book I'm reading. The birds church on the nearby tree and there's a slight chilly breeze that passes by.
"Hello love." He whispers in my ear. "Well hello to you too." I say, slightly jumping. How does he always know where I am? "What brings you here." He smirks, sitting next to me on the bench.
"I thought I'd find you here." I smile remembering it's where we first met. "It's always isolated too, which is nice." I motion to my book and I can always tell that he understands so I don't say anymore.
"I always think, Audrey." He pauses. "That we may be the same person." "Maybe even soulmates." He whispers, moving towards me. "Two souls who were meant for each other." He finally says.
"Really?" I say quietly. I look down at the book in my hand. Fiddling with my plaid skirt, as I didn't know where he was going with this. He nods. Then takes two fingers and lifts my face up to look at him.
"I think your special." He finally says before pressing his lips against mine. His hand on my cheek, softly feeling the cold flesh. It never gets old, because it brings me pure joy and lust.
