Aurora's POV

I watch the sunrise and the dark blue sky slowly turn into a light blue color. This has always been my favorite thing to do whenever I wake up in the middle of the night or when it's close to morning.

I heard my phone ringing. I pick it up and it's a phone call from... Eddie. I smile and I answer his call before putting it on speaker.

"Hey, good morning."

"Good morning to you too babe. You know I can see you from my window."

I stood up and saw him waving at me and I waved back. We're neighbors once again like the old times when we were kids. 

Right next to his house to the right is Heather's house. We convinced our parents to move together since we decided to go to the same university. Of course, we're still living with our parents but it's still temporary since we're thinking of moving into the dorms once school starts.

"Yeah, I know. I can tell you just woke up. Did you sleep well by the way?"

"Yeah. How about you? You're up early."

"Way earlier than you think."

"Another nightmare?"

"Yeah."

"Why don't you come over and we'll have breakfast here at my place?"

"Aren't your parents home though?"

"No, I told you that they won't be back until next month, I guess."

"Oh right. Sorry, I keep on forgetting stuff."

"It's alright. Now go and get change and tell Heather to come over as well."

"Alright. See you."

"See you."

We hang up and I head back inside my room. I put my blanket away and decided to take a quick shower.

After taking a quick shower, I dry my hair and put on some casual clothes. I then grabbed my phone and texted Heather to meet up at Eddie's house and have breakfast at his place.

I walk out of my room and head downstairs. My parents and Toby are still asleep so I made sure to head outside as quietly as possible.

I quickly grab a pair of shoes and put them on before heading out. I also make sure to close the door slowly. Then I walk towards Eddie's house.

"Hey, Ro!" My eyes averted and I saw Heather in her pajamas, waving at me.

"Hey Heather, I assume you just woke up and saw my text."
