"It's partay timeeee!" Izzy shouts walking into my room, Lydia following closing behind

"Yeah I'm not going anymore" I say lying down

"Why not?" Izzy asks

Lydia gasps, "did you and Alex break up?"

"No we didn't break up" i sigh, "I'm just not in the mood"

"But it will put you in that mood" Izzy says cheerfully sitting down next to me

"Will it though" i say grumpily

"What's going on Lily?" Lydia asks me

"I just want to be on my own for a while" i say and they both look at each other

"Well if you change your mind we're going to be at the party" Lydia says and i nod before they head out.

It's been about two hours since they left for the party and I've just been staring at my ceiling, I've been missing home a lot.

Well, I've been overthinking every life decision I've ever made. Thinking about home and my grandad, all of the shit I'm going to have to do these next couple of months. It's getting quite overwhelming really.

I hear my phone buzz and I look over to my phone on my bedside table before answering it, "hello?"

"Lily, it's me your grandma" an old frail voice says making me smile

"Hi grandma, how are you?" I ask her

"I'm good, what are you up to?" She asks me, "I hope your having some fun!"

"Hmm well not exactly, I was invited to a party tonight but I'm not going" i tell her

"Why not?" She asks

"I'm just not in the mood I guess" I say

"Lily, you need to stop stressing" she tells me

"How do you know?" I ask

"I know everything. Anyway, your voice gives it away. Look, this is your time away from the pressure sweetheart, enjoy it. It's not going to be easy after you come back home, enjoy your time off. Have fun, live a little. Life's too short to mope around everywhere darling" she says and i nod

"Your right" I sigh

"Of course I am" she says and I grin to myself, "okay now get yourself to that party and have fun"

"Okay, I'll go" i say

"Great! I'll speak to you soon" she says

"Love you" i say

"Love you too" she replies for hanging up

I head over to my wardrobe before getting changed.

I head downstairs before opening the door to reveal Alex putting his hand out ready to knock and i laugh
