When I wake up I see on the alarm clock that it is only 5:00 am.  I'm freezing.  Then I notice that I am still completely naked.  I quickly get up and put on my bathrobe.  I decide to take a warm shower against the cold.  I pack my things and walk towards the bathroom.
When I enter the bathroom I suddenly imagine seeing Ethan again in his white towel with a bare torso.  I actually see him every time I walk into this bathroom.  When I'm in the shower, the hot water jets do me good.  I think a lot about Ethan and I know I am in love with him, but is he in love with me too?  After our intimate touches and hugs, I was on fire, but he absolutely didn't seem to be.  Maybe he only let me over because he really needed tutoring.  And believe me, he really did need it.  When we had discussed everything and he had finished all the assignments, I was unabashedly pushed into the hallway and the door was almost slammed in my face.
Without me noticing, I grab the shampoo bottle that Ethan gave me and squirt a large amount into my hand.  I just want to put the bottle on the floor, but then I feel the ribbon around it and I look at the bottle.  I get a warm feeling inside and wash my hair.
When I get back to my room I see that it is already 6:00 am.  I just took a shower for an hour.  I decide to stay up and study for the test until it's time to go to school.  I haven't been able to learn very much yet because Ethan has been running through my head for the last two weeks because he was absent from school.  Had I known he was on a college trip, it would have saved me a lot of worry.  Every time I opened my textbook, the letters formed Ethan's head and I quickly closed it again.
Now I open my book slowly and see that the letters are not capital and I am relieved.  I concentrate on the material for the test and make notes.
When it's almost 8:00 am I get dressed, put some light makeup on, and eat my muesli like I do every morning.
I walk into the hallway and yawning knock on Abby's door. I hope that jerk James didn't sleep over again. I'm really too tired for that now.  I think he keeps losing his key on purpose just to sleep in Abby's room.
Then Abby opens the door and I go through her room with my eyes but luckily I don't see James.  However, the mattress on which he often sleeps is still on the floor with a pillow and a blanket.  Abby notices.  'What is it?  Is my room too cluttered for you? '  She asks with a smile.  Her room is often messier compared to my room, yes.  But that's not the point now.  "No, there's nothing. I thought maybe James stayed with you again."
'No he is not.  You really don't like him, do you? '
"No, Abby, I don't like people walking around and making annoying comments."
"He said sorry for that, and I think he's doing it on purpose because he secretly likes you."
I almost choke on my own slime at the thought that James likes me. "Well then that is a very wrong way of approaching people."
'Yes Esmee, girls tease ask for kisses.  But he doesn't stand a chance anyway, because you're already in love with someone else. '  Abby says with a grin, moving her eyebrows up and down.  Laughing, I push her on the shoulder.  Then we walk down the stairs, out of the house.
When we walk towards the metro I feel nervous.  Nervous about the big test and to see Ethan again.
