I practically limp back to my dorm room. My eyes are heavy from the long hours of studying, but at least I am caught up.
Robin- "Hey slut where have you been?"
Robin is on the couch watching some trashy reality TV show. She's really smart, but I don't think I've ever seen her complete an assignment.
Jenna- "Library.Tired.Bed."
Robin- "Okaaayyy Frankenstein. Sweet dreams."
Robin resumed her show, and I collapsed onto my bed. Just as I drift to sleep, my phone chimes with a loud notification.
Fogell- "Hey this is Fogell, remember? You didn't give me a fake number did you?"
I chuckle a little. I really should be asleep, but I want to respond. My fingers dance around the keyboard. I don't know what to say. Maybe I'll keep things simple.
Jenna- "Hey this is Jenna, remember?"
Fogell- "Shit I thought this was Jessica."
My heart stops.
Fogell- "LOL did I get you?"
I let out a huge sigh of relief. I can't believe the thought of him talking to another girl is making me so nervous. I bite my lip as I think of another response. Who am I?
Jenna- "Ok, I admit. You got me good."
Fogell- "Don't worry babe. It's just you on my mind."
He is so fucking cringy I can't. I am smiling like a fool.
Robin- "WHY DO I HEAR YOU SMILING? SHOULDN'T YOU BE ASLEEP IN THERE?"
Jenna- "I can't sleep when you're screaming at me."
Robin runs into the room and looks me up and down.
Robin- "Ok. Spill. Is this a boyyyyyy?"
Jenna- "Oh my god! Nosey much?"
Robin- "I have known you for 10 years. I pick up on these things. Now, spill!"
Jenna- "I'm texting Fogell, the mystery boy from the party last night."
Robin- "NO fucking way! Ew... why him?"
Jenna- "He's cute and he makes me laugh. I don't know, at the very least it's entertaining."
Robin- "...alright, but I'll be watching youuuuu."
I throw my pillow at her.
Jenna- "SHUT UP!"
Robin giggles and runs back to her program.
I get another notification.
Fogell- "Can I take you to dinner tomorrow?"
Jenna- "See you at 6."
I toss my phone onto my nightstand and fall into a deep sleep.
