"Ah that explains it, talk to you next week honey, bye," she says and hanging up after I say bye. I leave my things on my bed and walk into my en suite. It's the typical whitewash wet room, I make quick work of showering and drying my hair. I plait it tightly down my back, leaving a few curls to shape my face before getting changed. I know I won't need a coat, it’s warm enough not to need one.

"Hey, you ready Win?" Alex asks sitting on the couch and looking at my outfit, as I find my purse and phone, putting them in a small bag. I watch as she nods her head at what I’m wearing, she should like it considering she bought me it.  She quickly does something on her phone before getting up. We were lucky that my father left me a large amount of money for college. My mum refused to use it so I used it to pay for mine and Alex’s college. We have enough left over for rent and bills for the next few years. Alex swears she is paying me back but I wouldn’t let her.

"Sure," I say following her out. We take Alex's red Volvo to the restaurant, chatting about the university on the way, and I ask what I really want to know.

"How serious are you and Drake? I mean I've never seen you date anyone this long before." I ask watching how her face lights up at his name.

"I love him Win," she sighs with her cheeks blushing.

"Wow, that's great Alex," I say honestly. I have never seen Alex this happy before, even if he seems quiet and strange, he makes her smile. That’s all I could want for her, I ignore the slight jealously of her having someone when I don’t. My best friend being in love is something to be happy about not envy.

"He told me he loves me too, I can't get enough of him and I don't mean just sex. I love talking to him and," she stops mumbling and blushing more when I smile at her. She turns back to the road, tapping her fingers on the wheel.

"I get it," I say softly, causing us both to start laughing.

"I didn't plan on a serious relationship, while I am still at uni, but I feel like he's the one, you know?" she asks me. My thoughts go to Jaxson for a second, before I mentally shake myself and answering her.

"I don't but I'm really happy for you," I say and she reaches over to squeeze my hand.

“It will happen for you, one day you will just know and there will be no going back.” She says.

“It won’t. I have bad luck with guys and I just don’t want anything now.” I say, ignoring how my thoughts betray me by thinking of Jaxson and Wyatt.
