𝐓𝐇𝐔𝐌𝐏. i fall of my bed and land face-first onto the floor. groaning, i get up and wash my face, brush my hair, and change into a polo crewneck with black baggy jeans. i grab my beaded necklace, rings, and mascara and put them on quickly.

my mom and dad are still sleeping, so i put a waffle in the toaster and make myself some coffee. as i'm waiting for the waffle to be done, i open up instagram. a notification from yesterday pops up as i click to read it.

louispartridge_ has followed you!

i can't help the smile that appears on my face as i follow him back and click on his profile. i don't know why i'm shocked to see him verified with 7.7 million followers. i scroll through his posts and almost drop my phone when i realize that i liked almost 5 of them in a row.

the toaster dings as my waffle pops up. i check the time and quickly drink my coffee, shoving the waffle into my mouth. i run upstairs to brush my teeth and grab my backpack, making sure not to wake up my mom and dad.

i walk out the door and see the sunrise. it never fails to amaze me. the yellow, orange, and hints of red all blend together to make a beautiful masterpiece in the sky.

after a few minutes of silent walking, i finally reach school. it has been way more chaotic since louis joined just yesterday, but the jocks standing in the front make all the girls go crazy.

there's one boy who hannah and me have had a crush on since the 9th grade, but we still don't know his name. we call him "gumball boy" because of the time he gave me and hannah gumballs last year at lunch.

i walk into school and see gumball boy staring at me. his friends punch his shoulder as he stops looking at me. i blush and head to my first class, spanish. señora tillet watches us sit at out desks and pulls up the daily agenda.

i see hannah walk in and we both smile as our eyes meet each others. spanish and the class after this are the only classes i have with hannah all day. señora tillet pairs me and hannah up to read our book for the rest of the class period. we end up reading for the whole class just to get ahead.

when there are three minutes left, i start telling hannah about my parents' plan with devin. i also tell her how i'm meeting louis at the library on monday, and this is when she starts creating ships names for us.

"oh! celouis? no that sounds weird," hannah laughs, the loud bell cutting her off. we walk into algebra 2 and see william practically eating adelaide's face off.

we turn our heads away in disgust as hannah says, "why are you doing that in the classroom? take it to the bathroom!"

they pull their faces apart and adelaide looks at me with disgust. "you're just jealous that you don't have a boyfriend," she says, thinking i care.

i laugh at her and roll my eyes. i sit down at the back of the class next to hannah. the teacher comes in and starts explaining the lesson, but my mind is focused on the mysterious boy my parents want me to date.

after a boring 60 minutes, class is over. i say bye to hannah for the day, since i won't see her again. i have a study hall and physics until the day ends.

when school is finally over, i head outside quickly to make sure i don't get home late. louis sees me and waves, so i smile at him. he truly is the sweetest boy.

i walk through the door and am very shocked to see my mom standing in the kitchen with a bright smile on her face. when she sees me, the smile doesn't disappear, and i stare at her confused.

"honey! aren't you excited for tomorrow? you get to meet devin! me and your father are looking forward to it," she says, staring at me with a sense of joy in her eyes.

"y-yeah, i guess? i'm, uh, gonna go do my homework upstairs now. i'll be down before dinner to help you set the table though," i reply.

she nods and i hear her talk again, "okay, tell me if you need any help."

i nod hesitantly and go upstairs into my room. my bag drops on the floor as i take my clothes off to shower. i step into my shower and let the hot water run down my back.

i scrub the shampoo and conditioner into my hair, and quickly rub the body wash over my body.

i changed into a pair of sweatpants and a sweatshirt. my mom is making mac and cheese for dinner so a smile appears on my face.

"what's got you so happy?" my mom asks, her happy mood seeming to not go away.

"well you know i love mac and cheese, plus, you seem like you're in a really good mood," i reply.

"i am in a good mood! i'm just excited about tomorrow, and i just checked your grades! i'm so proud of you for doing so well!" she says, pulling me in for a hug.

my confused state comes back as i hug her. my mom has never really been like this, but i am not complaining.

i help pour the mac and cheese into a bowl when my dad walks into the door. he puts his briefcase on the couch and comes over to the kitchen to kiss my mom on the head.

he sits down and pours himself mac and cheese, and so do me and my mom.

my dad clears his throat and says, "so, the rodgers will be here at around 6, make sure you are home and dressed by then. i expect you to be kind to them, as we want to make a good impression."

i nod and finish my dinner while he talks more about tomorrow. we end up listening to my dad talk about his job and random things until 7:30.

i brush my teeth when i get to my bedroom, and jump into bed. my head stirs with thoughts of everything that could go wrong tomorrow.
