Changes in the night

Driving in the night I think of everything that has happened in a period of almost 48hrs. I drove around the neighborhood like 3 times, just biting my lip and thinking. I decided to call Dawn because I was driving aimlessly like a lunatic and couldn't sleep anyways. 

After 3 rings she finally picks up, "Hello" Dawn says sleepily. 

"Sorry for waking you, I just had a lot on my mind and couldn't think straight".

 She says "NO, no its okay whats up?"

 I tell Dawn everything and every few seconds she says "Oh, OK and I see". 

"What should I do Dawn?"

"Well Jacob Black is very mysterious I don't know much about him, I do know he is a "bad boy" but he has good grades. "He's also reserved yet confident when spoken too, he seems like a nice guy, you should totally talk to him....maybe he will call you". 

I laugh. "I doubt it, anyone who talks to me ends up in some kind of trouble, I'm bad news". 

Dawn says "Oh really... Well I'm still fine". 

We both laugh. 

"Now what about Damon?" I say. 

"He's a jerk who needs to get hit in the face a few hundred times!" 

"Hell yeah, you should have seen him on the floor today, thank you for understanding" I say. 

"No problem, bye Lacie", 

"Bye Dawn".

 I hang up and drive home.


HOURS LATER 

Suddenly I hear my phone ring, I slowly get up and look at the time 3am, who the hell calls at 3am!!!

 I look at my phone and see an unknown number.

 I hesitate then pick up. "Hello" I say. I hear a deep voice "Hey, is this Lacie". 

"Um yeah who's this its 3am"? 

"Sorry its me Jacob".

"I hiccup. "WHAT?!"

 "I just wanted to make sure this is your number, your friend Dawn gave it to me".

I laugh,"That DAWN!" 

"I know its late but I just had to call".

"No its alright".

We ended up laughing and making jokes, and played would you rather. Jacob was a really sweet guy.

 Then there's a pause, "Can I ask you a question"? 

"Sure what is it?"

 He stutters "Can I pick you up tomorrow?"

 "UMMMmm.. yeah sure". 

" Dawn also gave me your address" then sounding relieved he says "OK I'll pick you up at 8am". 

"OK, see you tomorrow". 

"Goodnight... beautiful." 

"Goodnight Black".

 I hang up, and scream into my pillow. A lot can change in one night.
