On My Way (ON HOLD)

Chapter 5

Shit. I must've dosed off again. I'm woken up by a childish Keenan nudging me. "Hey, hey, hey. Get up! I'm bored. And by the way you have a text." This gets me up in a split second. Ugh, I'm so bad when it comes to texting, I end up passing out or falling asleep on the person. I unlock the screen and look in my notification bar. It's from them. I instantly smile. The butterflies are subtle. But they're there. I open my messages and read what they said. "MY GOD I LOVE YOU" this sends a warm feeling coursing through my body. I can feel it rising to my cheeks. I try hiding it with my hair but know I failed when "Mr. Tag Along" tries to look over my shoulder. "Soooo... You gonna tell me about this." He says as he points a finger between me and my phone. I try to keep my cool. I try to be as nonchalant as I can while I brag about the love of my life. The more I talk about them the more excited I get. "Hold your inner fangirl down Dani!" I tell myself. When I'm finally done with my little rant He, as I expected, began to ask questions. "Who are they? How did you meet them? Who asked who? When did this happen? Tell me more!" His eagerness made me laugh. I decide to answer him as I sip a monster I snuck in yesterday. "Hmmm... Well, their name is Rissa. I met them via social media. Google+, you'd think nobody uses it and it's dead but nope you'd be surprised at the amazing people you meet on there. "They asked me." I cut myself off and hide my face in my hands as I admit that. THEY FUCKING ASKED ME! The fangirl within me screams. "They fucking asked me dude! Out of everyone else, they decided to ask me! I got so lucky! The day was January 10th" I roll up my sleeves a bit revealing my wrist to show him the date (01~10~15) and a few lyrics to Pierce The Veil's song "Bulls In The Bronx" tattooed on me. He studies my wrist for a bit. I'm sure he can see the faded scars but lucky for me he decides to keep quiet. Instead he grabs my arm and looks at it. He looks at the lyrics I jotted down. "Wow, who's this by?" I point at the bottom sentence where it says "- Famous Last Words" Keenan brings his hand to his face. "Oh, right. I feel stupid now." We both laugh and I pull my sleeves back down. I turn to him. "Anything else you want to know?" He gives me that same smirk he always has and says "No, not at the moment." I nod. "Okay." I take another sip from my drink and offer it to him. He takes the drink and takes a few sips. I zone out and reread old messages between me and my little cutie while Keenan continues to gulp down MY drink. But it's worth it. I get some time to fangirl over my babe while he's distracted. I can't help but swoon every time I read our conversations. So far our main form of communication was via text, Skype and the occasional phone call, but now it'll finally be face to face. I can't wait.
