Friday came slowly. I couldn't focus on anything! I could barely pay attention in conversations because I was just daydreaming about Zach the hottest guy alive. We had texted quite a lot and I was so excited to see him and hang out with him! We flirted over text a lot making me think maybe he thought I wasn't the worst person ever if he's texting me and asking to meet up with me. I was trying not to get my hopes up, but I was really hoping he liked as much as I liked and thought about him.

For the coffee date hangout whatever you call it, I decided to let Tiffany choose my outfit since she was pretty fashionable. "Are you excited?" Tiffany pried while looking through my closet. "Obviously, he's hot!" I said giggling. Tiffany decided on me wearing a red low cut tank top, light wash jean jacket, and black jeans. It was a cute outfit and I looked pretty decent. Once I changed I grabbed my phone and headed out.

Right when I walked in the first person I saw was Zach. He looked so great in such simple clothes. Butterflies rushed through my stomach. I nervously swallowed and walked over to him. He looked up from his phone annoyed but once noticing me his face broke out into a smile and he waved at me summoning me to go sit with him. I walked over and took a seat. "Hey!" He said smiling widely. "Hi, did you already order coffee?" I asked. "Nope I was trying to be a gentleman and wait for you but I really want coffee!" He said standing up and waking with me over to the stand.
"Chai tea please" I ordered
"Mocha." Zach ordered without even saying please.
"Please." He added as if he had heard my thoughts.
Once we got our coffees, we decided to walk around since it wasn't too cold. I told him all about my mom and how my dad had died when I was 6 so I have limited memories about him and about how I was separated from my sister and best friend Lilly. "Even though lolly was four when we were Seperated, we were left alone a lot so once she was gone I was alone with no one but myself and I was only 8." I finished, feeling good for finally talking about Lilly with someone. "It's a small world, you never know when you might see her again." Zach replied, surprising me with his hopeful answer for me to find my sister. If I could find my sister and have Zach as my boyfriend I wouldn't even need to be adopted! I would have every piece of my life in place. Then I could go peacefully and ready to start my next amazing life since I did so good in this one.

Everything for me was falling into place so I wouldn't be surprised to go home and find something horrible happening. After all, my life was more screwed up than most but I was trying to not let my screwed up life screw me up. Emphasis on the word trying. We would see if Zach could help me feel normal or if I was wasting my time on boys when I could be focusing on finding a family. I know it is selfish of me to be with Zach because he is a distraction but I believe that I deserve a nice little distraction with everything going in with my life and everything that has been going on since I was 3 since I could remember, I need this distraction. I need Zach. But I would never tell him that, I've only hung out with him twice but I already know every ting about him, his family, his life. We talk on the phone, text, and hopefully we will hang out much more because he is one sexy distraction I'm not letting go of.
