❀ Chapter 7 ❀

Mackenzie's POV *Same Day*

When I finally reached the pier I found a bench the was over the water, close to the beach, and that wasn't covered in seagull poop. I sat down taking my notebook and my graphite and colored pencils. I flipped open to a new page and just started drawing my name decoratively in bubble letters as I waited. My phone started ringing and I pulled my backpack up pulling it out once more to see 'Meggy💖' on my caller ID

"Hey Meggers, what's up?" I answered. It was mostly Meghan who I had the most nicknames for.

"Hey you doin anything today? I mean knowing you you're probably laying in bed, with your blinds and curtains still closed just scrolling through Twitter or something on your phone."

"Actually I'm at the pier right now,"

"Wait really? You can't be.. Not after what happened yesterday.."

"Yea, and I was at school because I was gonna clean up my stuff, I'll tell you tomorrow what happened and some news."

"Ok, so why are you at be pier then?"

"Well I asked Luke to meet me here so I could finish the drawing I've been working on for over a week and a half."

"Oooh"

"Meg relax, nothing is happening. We are friends I guess, I don't even know actually. But I can garuntee you nothing is gonna happen."

"You can say that but I'm betting $20 bucks he's gonna do something."

"I'm not betting on this."

"Oh com'n please!"

"No, I'm not betting on something like that."

"Fine. But I at least need details tomorrow."

"Fine."

"But if I were you I'd snag him while you can before Valerie McBitcher gets to him again, plus he and his band are growing more famous everyday ever since that tweet."

"Meg! Stop it!"

"Fine but I still call it that by summer you two will already be sucking face."

"MEG SERIOUSLY! You have problems, and you need to stop trying to get people together."

"I don't try, I just predict the future Hun."

"What am I gonna do with you Meg?"

"I don't know. Hopefully not plot my death."

"What If I already did?"

"If my death plan is in your sketchbook either I surpassed it, you ripped it out, or you don't even have one."

"I'll just leave you to guess which one it is." I laughed.

"Hey! It's not much of a challenge when it's common sense unless you were really that bad of a friend."

"Well then I guess your lucky I'm not." I looked up to see Luke walking onto the pier. "I gotta go Luke's coming."

"Ooo"

"MEG WOULD YOU SHUT UP."

"No can do. I have an everlasting battery life."

"Bye Meg."

"Bye, DONT FORGET-" I cut her off by pressing 'end call' and laughing as I did so.

"Let me guess that was Meg?" Luke smiled at me as he approached.

"Yea, how'd you know?"

"I could hear you shouting when I walked onto the pier." He laughed.

"Yep. If I'm yelling at anyone, it's most usually always Meg." He sat down next to me.
