It was 7am the following morning Imogen asleep in her room, Conor asleep in the spare room next to Imogens. Imogens mom was going to let them have the day of school and was downstairs making breakfast. Imogen was awake laying in her bed as she was woken by her alarm at 7 a few minutes later there was a knock on her " come in " she said sitting up in her pjs seeing Conor coming in, he looked tired. Imogen watched him as he closed the door over behind him . " Are you ok ?" Imogen asked him as he walked over , Connor nodded laying down next to her on top of the quilt , he wrapped his arms around her as she lay back down into him wrapping an arm around his waist resting her head on his shoulder. Conor closed his eyes and pressed his lips to the top of her head " thank you so much " he whispered.
Imogen held onto Conor softly as the lay together for a couple of moments, before Conor spoke " we better get ready for school " he mumbled slightly his lips still pressing to the top of her head. " Are you sure ?" Imogen asked him " we can stay here today , we dont have to go in " she added sitting up to look at him. Conor nodded looking at her now " I don't want people to know, or for them to get suspicious " He spoke calmly, Imogen nodded " ok ill meet you downstairs in a couple of minutes " she smiled. Conor nodded going back into the spare getting changed into the clothes her wore last night, Imogen's mam had given him an old clothes to belonged to her ex, Imogens father.
Conor went downstairs after, Imogen already tucking into her breakfast at the breakfast table. " Conor i will give you two a lift and we can drop into yours to get your uniform and book " Imogens mom began taking before adding " the fireman managed to put the fire out before there was too much damage, I heard it was only the sofa and part of the floor "she said softly placing a hot cup on tea in front of him. " Thank you so much Ms Steward" he spoke. Imogen mom smiled before going to get ready.
The pair arrived to school just a couple of minutes late, but they had Mr. Chalk so he would be fine with it. As they walked in Mr. Chalk looked completely shocked to see Conor " Conor " he frowned surprised. " Sorry we are late sir " Conor spoke sitting down next to Imogen. Mr. Chalk changed them from absence to late on the electronic roll which all teachers had excess too. They began doing work before Mr. Clarke knocked on the door asking for Conor. They went to the office Conor hoping it wasnt about the fire and how it started but had a feeling it would be.
Conor took a sit across from Mr. Clarke as he began talking about what happened , asking Conor how he felt and getting his side of what what, he didn't mention anything about his mom drinking. Mr. Clarke began talking about his mom not mentioning that he had been talking to her " your mom told me , you had been drinking and spilled it and she must of fallen asleep and knocked a candle over, is this true Conor ?" He asked. Conor couldn't believe his mom had said that to cover her alcohol problem. After decision punishment for drinking underage Mr. Clarke told by that him and Conors mom both agree that he will have detention for 2 weeks at lunch times.
Conor couldn't believe his mom done that to him. Slipping his bag over he walked to the library going to be alone, wanting to be on his own. They had a free perios now and they were to go to the library Imogen spotting Conor in the back Conor and went to him. Conor sighed seeing her , not that he had a problem with her but just felt he wanted space. Imogen sat beside him on the sofa " what's wrong ?" Imogen asked him . Conor shook his head " just want to be alone " he said not looking at her. Imogen was slightly taken back but nodding standing " sure your okay " she asked picking up her bag. " Yes like I have already said" he snapped at her. Imogen frowned looking at him before turning walking away. Conor sighed putting his hands in her head , he just upset the only person he trusted.
