"Mom, I can take the class next semester. You know, at a less torturing time."
"I didn't send you to college so you could stay out all night. I sent you there to get an education."
I sigh, her mother of the year act is already getting on my nerves. As I look at Dawson, an idea comes to mind.
"But the early time is triggering to me. I don't want to be tempted to do coke again in order to stay awake."
Dawson's jaw drops as I hear my mom gasp.
"Okay, honey. I understand. You can drop the class. Just make sure they refund my card."
I smile brightly, thanking my mom and getting off the phone.
"Did you really just use the recovery card?" Dawson asks me.
"I did."
He chuckles. "You have no shame."
I smirk. "Well, it's got to be good for something."
I go into the bathroom to change into my uniform and when I come out, I realize how empty it is in here. I hadn't noticed when I arrived. I was too engrossed in getting out of taking 'Intro to Philosophy' at the ass crack of dawn.
"Where is everyone?" I question.
Dawson looks up from his phone, glancing around the room before shrugging. I walk over next to him and pull myself up to sit on the counter - kicking my feet as I wait for him to finish texting Skylar. When he's done, he pockets his phone.
"So how are you feeling?"
I frown. "Confused."
He coos, pulling me into a light hug. "Have you talked to him?"
"No." I answer. "I don't even know what to say."
Dawson sits on the counter across from me. "Well, do you want to get back with him?"
His words make me stop and question things. Do I? I mean, it's not like the idea hasn't crossed my mind. He was everything to me at one point. That was months ago though. Could we get back to how we were? Is it even possible?
"I don't know." I respond.
He sighs. "Well, if it helps any – I'm totally team Kayden."
"Kayden?"
"Kayleigh plus Holden equals Kayden." He answers, like it’s the most obvious thing in the world.
I can't help but laugh. "You're ridiculous."
"Yeah, but you love me."
"So, what are you and Skylar then? Dawlar or Skyson?"
He ponders it for a moment. "Skyson, definitely."
A FEW HOURS LATER, Dawson and I are throwing a roll back and forth, when the door opens.
"Woah. Why's it so dead in here?" Caleb asks while looking around.
