"NO FUCKING WAY!" Alice was screaming.
I had just told her about Thomas and what had happened. We were walking around town getting to know each other.

"Yes way! I'm still literally shaking right now! I was so nervous talking to him!" I carry on talking about how I love the maze runner and I've always had a crush on him.

"That's awesome! I can't believe you've been in London for one day and you've already got a date. I've been here my whole life. Not one date... AND BY SOMEONE YOU'VE HAD A CRUSH ON FOR YEARS!!!" She paused for a bit. "AND HES FAMOUS" I look at her with a worried face.

"AND HOT!" I scream. "But what the fuck am I supposed to wear?" I looked down at my clothes. Greg jogging bottoms, Nike shoes, black crop top and a grey hoodie. "He literally saw me in my pyjamas!"

"Can I come over to your place and help you pick something out?" She said and then phone buzzed.

"That's probably my parents. They text me every hour. It's kinda annoying" I took out my phone.

"No that's cute!" She said.

I looked at my phone in shock. A number I haven't seen before. "I think it's him" I say while unlocking my phone.

"No shit! Already?" It had only been an hour since I bumped into Thomas and he's already messaging me!

"Guess so...lemme show you what he sent." I put my phone in front of Alice's face and she reads it with a big smile on her face.

Hello love, I know that I'm messaging you pretty soon but I really wanted to get to know you. I've had a quick chat with my manager and I have no interviews tomorrow so would you like to meet at the cafe place we were at today at 11? No worries if your not free we can always make arrangements for another time. -Thomas.

"Message him back!!!" Alice shouted at me. "It says that you've read it!"

"What do I say?" I say nervously.

"Say yes!" Alice was getting so exited. "I have a shift tomorrow as well so I can get your orders and stuff!!! AHHHH I can't wait!"

"Ok ok, calm down" I say laughing and type something back.

Yes that's perfect! I'd love to. -Malia.

"Ok I sent it!" I show Alice my phone.

"He sent you a whole paragraph and you write one sentence?" She laughs holding her stomach.

"If I say anything else then I might sound stupid!" I laugh nervously.

"Ok that's fine then. Let's go pick your outfit then!" She says and we walk back to the hotel I'm staying at. We look through my suitcase and talk.

"So your only here for a week?" She says sadly.

"Yeh... but the uni isn't that far away, I can take the bus and it'll take only half an hour. It's not that bad." I say patting her head and laughing. We're already really good friends and we know most things about each other now that we've been hanging out for a few hours.

"You have nice clothes! I really like the vibe. Like half skate chic, half aesthetic vibe." She says laughing and looking impressed.

"Why thank you" I say smiling.

We look around my bag for a bit and then we finally pick out the perfect outfit. A white crop top with a few butterfly patterns on and some light blue ripped jeans with a white pair of shoes.

"In London it's cold you know!" I shout at her.

"Beauty is pain" she smiles and me and then the outfit put out on the floor.
I grab a big black puffy bear jacket and throw it on top of the clothes.

"Fine that's not so bad." She says.

"It's perfect!" I smile.
We hang out in my hotel room for another hour and then it starts to get dark.

"I better get going. Parents hate me being out in the dark. Her phone starts ringing. "That's them now" she smiles and then answers the call while putting on her jacket and shoes. She waved at me and then leaves. "I know I'm on my way now" and then shut the hotel door smiling.
