I plug in my earphones. I download the audio and play it.

"Hey, K. Another song covered. It's Tenerife Sea by Ed Sheeran. Uhh... Enjoy."

Guitar strumming. You sing. Your voice soft.

I smile.

"See you at midnight, then."

3.09 p.m.

"Hey, Klara." Annie sits beside me.

"Hey." I smile. "I thought you went home."

"I will after I talk to you."

"Oh okay." I shut my book and push it aside. "What is it?"

"It's about Nathan."

My hearts skips a beat at your name.

"Yeah. What about him?"

"He's so cute, don't you think?" Her eyes sparkle.

Very cute.

I laugh silently and shrug. "Not really. I have seen better."

"Are you serious?"

I shrug.

"Okay, so listen." She hums. "I was thinking if you could give me his number?"

"Uhh... Ye - yea - yeah. Sure, sure." I nod as I take out my phone with trembling hands.

"You don't mind right?" She asks. "I mean, you guys are just friends, right?"

"Yeah, totally." I smile. "Just friends."

I scribble your number on a piece of paper with trembling hands and hurting heart.

Why do I feel like I'm going to lose you?
