That call made me go insane. What's she really up to she didn't say much in the call but I could clearly understand that she was talking about Chloe and Jasper.

I think of calling Chloe or Jasper. Although I don't think that they know about Hazel calling me or they would have called me themselves. I could sense a big storm coming this way so I did not want to ruin their moment.

For the last two hours since I got back from school the only thing that was on my mind was what Hazel said. She is on to something and I have no idea what it is. But how could she possibly know anything about Chloe and Jasper's plan today.

I do not think anyone informed Hazel because when Chloe was talking about their plan, no one was around. I scanned the class as soon as I heard Chloe start talking about Jasper.

I lay down on the bed while still thinking about what might happen tomorrow and my eyes felt heavy and I don't know when I fell asleep.

After I wake up and check my phone. It's 6:23pm.

5 missed calls! From who?

Oh my god! Liam!

Right. He told me that he'll call me after he comes back home. I fell asleep so hard that I missed all his calls.

And why would Chloe call me? Does she know anything about it?

I immediately call her back.

"Hey, you called me twice. What's up?"

"Oh it's nothing. Liam was calling you and he couldn't reach you so he asked me to see if you're okay. I called you and you didn't pick up. So I assumed that you were asleep and I told him."

I pass a sigh of relief. She doesn't know. "Yeah, I fell asleep." I shamefully chuckle. " So how did it go?"

"Uh! awesome. You won't believe it. I have never felt this good in my life before."

"Well good for you. And for Jasper of course he-he."

"Hey. Evelyn. You okay?"

"Huh? Yeah yeah I'm fine. Why?"

"I don't know. Your voice sounds tense."

"Oh no... um.. I just got up from this long hard nap. And saw this many missed calls so I kinda freaked out. Nothing else." Chloe and I have been friends since childhood. She always sees through me. It wasn't a surprise that she figured out I was tense about something. Hazel's words were still ringing in my brain. "Alright then I'll call Liam and see what he wants to talk about."

"yeah. yeah you do that"

"bye-bye"

I called Liam.

"Heyyyy." I start.

"hey there" I smile, alone in my room like a shy fool. But I like being this fool.

"So.... I am sorry I fell asleep. Again."

"No. no. It's fine. Um.. actually I need to ask you something."

"Yeah sure. Go ahead."

"So... today morning when I was sitting beside you in the class and you were so close to me" I could understand that he was anxious. "I kinda wanted to kiss you. Like proper kiss"

That line made my heart beat twice.

Yeah I kinda wanna do that too!

"Really... I mean you are so pretty and your eyes were like little glowy things and - - " he stops.
