A(nal)ustin: your forecast today: sunny with a side of Austin

Me: oh lord

A(nal)ustin: everyone better zip up their rain jackets and open up their umbrellas because it's gonna be wet ;))))

Me: AFSTIN

Me: WHAT TO HECK

Me: well that escalated quickly

A(nal)ustin: so I know I said I would meet you at dunkin donuts, but I should probably pick you up so we can help global warming

Me: whatever's best for Mother Nature

A(nal)ustin: I'm Mother Nature

Me: I'm changing your contact name

Mother Nature: it better be Sex God because let's be honest here

Me: whatever you say Poseidon

Mother Nature: excuse me el, but Poseidon was the God of seas NOT sex

Me: same damn thing

Hades: hm

Hades: I'll pick you up at 2:27 pm, be ready or die

I smile looking at the time, 1:09, it read. I decided to nap for a while since Austin wasn't coming for another hour.

When I woke up it was 2 o'clock and I jumped out of bed and into the shower. I made sure to scrub every nook and cranny on my body and hair.

After walking in my room with chills all over, I picked out my outfit and laid it on my bed. I am insistent on being organized about these kinds of things, I could careless about anything that didn't involve my physical presentation. If it didn't include that, it's most likely unorganized, like my social life.

I put on my light wash jeans and my black sweater, completing it with boots. The doorbell rang, causing me to trip myself and face plant onto the floor.

"Hold on!" I shout while pulling my clumsy self off of the floor.

I grab my phone and look at the clock, smiling once I noticed that it was exactly 2:27.

I threw on my jacket and when I opened the door I was immediately hugged by Austin.

"Um, hi?" I said.

"Hey," he said as he pulled away from the hug.

"What was that for?"

"I like hugs."

"You're weird," I laughed as I got into his car.

"And you're ugly."

"Love you too."

"Love you three," he shot back, looking at me.

"Eyes on the road Howard, eyes on the road."

"How do you know my real name?" he said eyeing the road.

"You drunk texted me," I laugh.

"I drunk text?"

"Exactly."

"Food's on me by the way." he said.

"It's okay, I have money."

"My way or the highway El."

"Fine, but I'm paying next time."

"Sounds good to me, can't say no to free food." he smiled.

Is it bad that I thought of Harry when he said that? I mean no, we're friends, it shouldn't be weird to think of another friend.
