I go to my room but as soon as I get there, I get a call. My heart skips a beat as I look at who's calling me. I answer the phone saying, "Hey Sav, what's up?" "Hey, what are you doing right now?" "Nothing why?" "Wanna go get some food with me?" Sav asks. "Sure, let me just get ready really quick. How long until you get here?" "I'm about 5 minutes away." "Okay, I'll be down in a few minutes," I tell her before she hangs up. I quickly get changed into this outfit:

      I quietly exit my room and head for the door grabbing my backpack before I leave. I get in the elevator and head down to meet Savannah in her car. I spot Savannah's car and hop in. "Hey, you look cute," Savannah says causing me to blush. "T-thank you," I say. She smiles and pulls out of the parking spot and we leave. "So, where we going?" I ask. "What do you feel like?" "I'm in the mood for some nuggets from Mcdonalds," I say. "Then that's what we'll have." I smile at Savannah and notice that she's wearing sweats and a cropped hoodie with no makeup. She looks beautiful. I wish I could tell her that.

      "What's on your mind?" Savannah asks. "Nothing, just thinking about something." "And what might that be?" She asks. "That you look so fucking beautiful," I mumble hoping she won't hear it. "What was that?" She asks. "Oh, nothing..." I give her a shy smile. We arrive at Mcdonalds minutes later and she parks. We get out and head in. I order the nuggets and Savannah also orders the nuggets but she gets the meal. I get my money out but Savannah gives her card to the guy before I get the chance to pay. "I invited you, I get to pay," Savannah says. I frown as I put my money away. I find us a seat and sit down. Savannah comes over and sits across from me. "So, what happened earlier?" Savannah asks. "I don't want to talk about it," I say looking down.

     Savannah grabs my hand and says, "Hey, hey, hey, it's okay, you don't have to talk about it. I just want you to know that I'm here and I'm not going anywhere. Take it easy, tell me when you're ready." "Okay... I appreciate that you're not forcing me to talk about it. Thank you," I say finally looking at Savannah. "Of course, I would never force you to do anything. I hope you know that." "I do know that," I say smiling up at Savannah. Our order gets called and we go to grab our food. We sit back down and start to eat. Savannah takes a sip of her sprite and offers me a drink. "Sure," I say grabbing it from her and taking a sip. I hand it back to her and we continue eating, soon enough, we finish eating and Savannah asks, "Do you wanna come to my house and watch a movie with me?" "Sure," I say smiling.
