Life Moves On • Zach Herron

twenty one

monday

it feels like ages since i last went to classes because of being in LA all weekend but really it was only thursday that i last had a class

i stand up and pick out what i am wearing before getting changed and doing my whole morning routine

while i was doing my hair tate woke up and we talked about what classes we had today. once i was done i heard the door opening and closing and then i heard tate's voice

"who are you and what are doing?" she asked, i forgot to tell her that jonah comes every morning and that i told him not to knock

i quickly grabbed my phone and went into the shared space

"jonah! sorry i forgot to tell you both about each other! tate this is my best friend jonah, and jonah this is my new roommate tate" i explained and they exchanged small smiles

"so should we get going jonah?" i asked and he nodded, we both said bye to tate and started walking to the coffee shop before our classes started

"so when did you get a roommate?" jonah asked as we walked into the coffee shop "yesterday morning, i was as surprised as you are"

we order our coffees and head to our classes, about halfway me and jonah have to separate since our classes are in different places

luckily i managed to avoid zach when i was walking there however there's one problem, i have literature and zach sits behind me

i sit down at my desk and take out my notebook and pencil case, i then face the front of the room and wait for the class to start

the class quickly fills and i hear zachs voice talking to someone from behind me but i ignore it

the class soon begins and i make notes during it. just as i start to think that this is going well i feel something hit my back, great, i ignore it and carry on making notes

i hear zach's chair move quietly and him move to pick up whatever he through, when he sat down again a few minutes passed before i felt something hit my back again

i ignore it once again not giving in easily to zach even though deep down inside of me something is telling me to turn around

the same process with the chair happens again and then the thing hits my back again, i put my pen down and sigh. i swear this boy never gives up

i turn around and he looks surprised "what?" i whisper "i wanted to talk to you" he said and i roll my eyes "can't this wait? i'm trying to listen and make notes"

"can you two over there stop talking and turn around please" i hear the professor say so i turn to him and nod with a smile

"hey turn back around!" zach whisper-shouts to me so i turn to look at him again even though i know i shouldn't

"so i just wanted to apologise, you seemed upset the other day and i wanted to say sorry" he said and i almost smiled "thanks i accept your apology, i never thought i'd here you apologise actually"

"really how come?" zach asked smirking and i shook my head "jasmine and zach! i've told you already to stop talking and turn around! i will see you both after your last classes today" the professor says and i turn around and look down at my page

why did i just accept his apology?! jas you have got to sort yourself out
