Sophia's pov:

I wake up after a short nap and check my notifications.

Ace sent you a message

What could he be messaging me about? Just as I'm about to click on the notification Sabrina walks in and asks me how my day was. After explaining what transpired between Ace and I she comforts me. ''Hey, I'm sure he doesn't hate you, he probably just didn't know what to say and froze'' Sabrina reassures me. It's 5:30 and I just remembered that he messaged me just before Sabrina got home. We both look at my screen and I nervously click the text.

Ace: Hey, I wanted to apologize about today. It was a dick move. If you'd still be willing to see me, meet me at the local skating rink at 7pm. I'll be waiting.

I glance over at Sabrina to see what she's thinking. She jumps up and down ''oh my gosh! You HAVE to go'' I consider it and decide I really want to give him another chance. I spend the next hour with Sabrina as she helps me get ready.

Finally I'm ready and I decided to wear sweatpants with a graphic tank top.

Just as I'm about to leave I start to overthink. What if he stands me up? What if I mess up? This is my first date and I don't know how to feel or act. Sabrina knows about my anxiety so she's used to my overthinking. 

10 minutes pass and I'm starting to feel a lot better.

''Oh shit, It's almost 7:20'' Sabrina exclaims and with that I rush out the door.

By the time I arrive at the Skating rink it's 7:30. I feel bad about being late but I pray that he's still here.
