Chapter 5

The first thought on my mind after waking up is Stefan. I'm excited to see him today. I get up and do my daily routine, checking on Harry before I leave the house and then walking to school.

As I get to school, I see Stefan waiting by a tree opposite the building itself. I walk over to him and greet him, and from there, we both walk into the school together.

This continued for the next two weeks, Stefan still unaware of the life I was living and how I was inevitably struggling.

School finished a couple of hours ago and I'm sat in the forest, close by to the shed. I write in my diary.

Dear Diary,

Today was fun, but also calm. A good calm.

I hung out with Stefan today, we've been doing so since school started. I feel much more settled in now, and I've only got Stefan to thank. He's the sweetest.

I've been talking more to that girl, Bonnie, from my sociology class. Today, she asked me if I wanted to hang out with her and her friends, at one of their houses. I'm beyond scared but I said yeah anyway.

Apparently these girls will 'like' me, I'm hoping they're not bitchy and actually have personality to them.

I don't know what to wear, I should have a dress somewhere in the crooked wardrobe.

Anyway diary, I'll see you soon. Wish me luck for tomorrow. I'll need it.

I get up to go inside, and I'm suddenly getting a phone call. I pick up, "Hello?" The voice that followed after was hard to miss, it was my favourite voice, "Stefan? Is that you?" We have a conversation for about five minutes, and that later led to us talking for almost four hours. "Stefan, I was meant to sleep ages ago." I whine as I notice the time. "Y/N, it's not even 9pm." Stefan laughs. "Yeah but I need sleep." I groan. He mocks me until he says, "I understand, a pretty girl like you needs her beauty sleep. So, I'll let you go. See you tomorrow."

"Byee." I prolong before I end the call. I'm such an idiot, I shouldn't have let him go. His voice is soothing, its comfort. It's MY comfort. Ugh.

The same thoughts run in my mind until I finally fall asleep.
