Chapter Seven (unedited)

I think I may have lost the interest to even communicate with Cole. He was too exhausting to even listen

I laid in bed with my book on hand. I couldn't even feel my brain working as I read and read- not even understanding what I just read. I hadn't heard of him for two days and I may be slightly worried that he had started that stupid plan

Maybe he found another girl?

Before I could stop myself, I groaned before covering my eyes over my knitted top. Why was I even thinking about it? Yes, sure It was the first time someone had ask me to do something extreme. Not that they are extreme to others but it was to me and that was one big step to jump even. Its even a good things its Friday which meant, I could rest since I didn't have any classes on Saturdays and just the thought of two weekends by myself brought a smile on my face

Penny was basically busy for the whole weekend with her other friends and a party on the other side of college. Peter, though I didn't know what he might do since he has classes this afternoon while the others had football practices and work for Mr. Junkins which meant I may have the dorm all for myself

"hey Colby are you there?" a knock suddenly was heard before my eyes snap towards my lock door

"Yeah" I yelled back

"You sure you don't want too come with me? Its a shame to waste your time cope up in a room"

"Nah, besides I have a test coming up. Might as well study in advance" I looked back at the book in hand where I surprising drew a stick man on the side. I didn't even realized I had drew in it

I heard Penny mumble. Clearly defeated with another no from me. I could still hear a distinct knock on the door which indicated she was still there., waiting if I would change my mind and when I didn't answer- she finally sighed before giving a 'take care'

A sigh escaped my mouth

This is considered studying right?

With a sigh I began to realize my eyes were getting droopy. It has always been like this. Stay in bed twenty four seven , sleep, wake up to read, then back to sleeping.  Grandmother even thought it was unhealthy and that I should be exposed more to the sun and to flex that muscles of mine so I wouldn't get old with weak bones. Yet it had been a habit. The bed was just too loving and comfortable then people. Although they don't talk, they are rather much embracing then us. Who wouldn't love a bed anyway?

Suddenly my phone buzzed somewhere under the covers which was a big hassle when I couldn't even find it with all the fluffy blankets and squishy pillows that lay above them. I was even too tired to move except my hands that tried reaching under to find the object. Luckily I got a old of what I was looking for but unfortunately the call had ended. Just when I saw the caller, I began to regret for not finding sooner

Connors name lay on top of the screen that said missed call and instantly I texted him

"hey sorry I didn't pick the phone up. Whats up?"

It was an instant. I don't know if it was how fast he had replied back or whether I was just giddy he had texted. But second later Conner had gave me a reply that made me smile like a little old fool

"Yeah its fine. Thought you wanted a rain check with the lesson thing. So you free?"

"Yeah" I replied in return

"Great. Lets meet at the hotel if that's fine"

Now usually. I would have declined since my schedule was pretty busy with sleep and bed but I could squeeze in some time to ogle Conner. I mean it was still fine
