Vicky

Finally my shoulder is healed enough for my dormmates to stop treating me like an egg. I wake up again for the third time that day. This time, I'm all alone. I can vaguely remember Magnus telling me he had an early morning test. It's almost 4 p.m and he isn't back. I shrug off the worries and prepare an easy dinner. I take my pasta and head to the living space to watch some TV. The first movie I pick is the most boring thing I have ever watched in my life. I send Aubrey a text explaining how I'm going to pass out from insane boredom. She doesn't respond so I succumb back to the tv. I'm nose deep into the new movie I picked when my phone rings. It's Archer. "Hello?.""Yeah, Vicky. Where are you?" He speaks so pleasantly it makes me confused. "I'm at the dorms. What is it? Why are you calling me?""I'm thinking of watching a movie at the cinema and I want you to come along.""Why?"Archer takes a deep breath. I hold mine waiting for what he'd say. "What's with the attitude? I'm tryi

Third Person's POV

Archer is in Madeleine's home. Much to his dismay. Since his little 'argument' with Vicky, they'd been on a no speaking term. The only form of communication was an unanswered good morning text from Vicky. Archer saw it alright. In fact, he has his phone in his hand as he stares at it.

It doesn't. He doesn't even pay attention to her hand on his shoulder. "I'm fine. There's nothing wrong with me so you don't need to worry." He tries to smile but it comes out all wrong. She looks at him, hoping he'll look back. He doesn't. His gaze trained on the off phone in his hands. "Okay. If you say so. I'm gonna wash my hair okay?"He grunts in response. As Madeleine leaves, Archer gets his phone again. At this point, he doesn't know what he's expecting. He responds to the text and also asks how he's doing

It's my ringtone that drags me up from my pile of blankets and pillows. I love sleeping on the balcony for so many reasons, especially the warm sun on my skin and cool breeze. I snatch my phone from the stool. It's my mother's nurse. That's a surprise considering the last time I was there, I was almost literally flung out. "What is it?" "It's your mother again," I want to say something sarcastic, but she sounds so exhausted. "She's been preparing all morning for her daughter's birthday party. There's no party right?"I check the date on my phone and sigh. Today is Angie's birthday. "I'll be there soon. Tell her I'm coming."I end the call and call my father. He doesn't answer the first time. Because I'm annoying, I leave him 32 unanswered calls. He calls back after my shower. "Hello dear daddy?""I'm busy Ander. Is there a problem?"I drop my phone to be able to dry my hair properly. "Did you seriously call me 32 times for no reason?""No. Your dear wife is acting up again. Come
