Evelyn's POV
Shit shit shit. I left my phone at the concert.
Anyways, the concert was fine. I mean, Ed Sheeran was good and yeah, that's about it. No hate or anything, but I'm not a fan of that band.
Back to my phone...my dad is going to kill me. I'm always losing things, and a phone is not one tis cheap or easy to replace. I'm sure it's gone forever.
Or so I thought.

"Evelyn. Pass the root beer."
Me and Quinn were watching a movie at my house, 'Jennifer's Body', to be exact. We were having a good time, and as I was about to go get the root beer, the phone rang.
"I'll get it..." I huffed. All that hard work of getting up, and I don't even get root beer! What a scam!
The phone wouldn't stop ringing, and frankly I couldn't find it. It was annoying as hell, and adding to my stressful headache.
Finally, it went to the answering machine.
"The customer you are calling is unavailable at the moment. Please leave a message at the tone. BEEEEEEP." Every single time...
"Uh, hi. Evelyn, I think? Ah, this is awkward. Please call back once you hear this message. Thanks." Hmm, that was strange. I took a peek at the number, because apparently it wasn't recognizable for caller display. It looked awfully familiar to me...wait, that's my phone number!
"Quinn! That bitch's got my phone!"
"What bitch?"
"The person on the phone!"
"The person was a boy..."
"Whatever." I crossed my arms. "We NEED to call back soon, so I can get it back."
"What are the chances that you'd actually get it back?"
"Don't be such a downer. I know it's about a 50/50 chance, but I REALLY need it back."

We spent time watching the rest of the movie, finally getting more root beer, and waiting for the caller to call back because we were both too scared to call back. What? Stranger danger, better safe than sorry! Finally, after what seemed like a decade but was actually only 7 minutes, there was another phone call. I checked the phone and sure enough, it was the stranger with my phone.
"What are you waiting for?" Quinn asked. "Answer!"
I sucked in a deep breath and clicked 'call'. "Hello?"
"Well, hi."
I covered up the speaker with my hand. "Wait," I whispered to Quinn. "How do they know my home phone number?"
"Simple. I found it in the contacts."
"Oh.." So I guess this stranger was smart after all. "So, what's your name?" I asked, feeling more comfortable.
"I can't say just yet. But, I will be here near London for another two weeks, so I can meet you and give it back."
"So, I have to meet a stranger who could be a rapist just to get my phone back? Hm, I don't know if it's worth it..."
"I'm not a rapist, I swear!"
"Prove it."
Quinn was giggling, and seemed to be enjoying every second of this awkward phone call.
"..." I heard a buzz from the other line.
"Hello?" I asked. No on responded. "Helloooo?"
A few minutes later, I heard some shuffling on the other line. "Sorry! I had to help my ban- erm, brothers with something. But I'm back."
"Okay, well tell me about yourself. I don't just meet anyone for my phone." I sassed. Quinn gave me a look, seeing as I was never the sassy one.
"Well, I'm 20. Agh, how do I describe myself?" Suddenly, someone else butted in. "Well, he's sexy, has a sexy quiff and a sexy accent. That's all." They finished, I assume his brother.
"Shut up Loueh!" The first stranger said angrily. "So anyways...you still there?"
"Yup."
"Can we meet tomorrow?"
"Um...I guess. Where?"
"How about outside of the TopShop around here, at 1:00?"
"Okay, well I'm going to go. Bye."
"Wait!" He yelled quickly.
"Mmhmm?"
"Do you promise you won't freak out when you see me?"
"I swear." I lied.
"Okay, bye!" He said cheerily, before hanging up.
"Rapist?" I asked Quinn.
"Definitely a rapist."
