the next day

your pov

as i walked into science class, i saw awsten eagerly waiting for me with a smile. i walked to our table and put my stuff down and sat next to him.

"hey, y/n." he greeted me. i smiled.

"so, you couldn't wait for me to tell you my name myself." i laughed. he shrugged.

"i just needed to know, what can i say?" he defended himself. i just shook my head at him.

we got our chromebooks out and opened google classroom, starting to work on our project. unfortunately, we only got a few slides done because we got a bit distracted by talking and joking around. but, i liked how easily we got along. he really was nothing like his asshole friends.

"hey, i cant tomorrow or thursday night because i have basketball practice, so do you want to work on the project tonight? i can come to your house or if you want you can come to mine but my little sisters kind of annoying." awsten asked me. i nodded.

"yeah, you can come to mine if you'd like. it's just my mom and i and she works a night shift so she'll be gone by 5. i'm sure she won't mind since it's for the project." i told him.

"okay, just whenever you want me to come over works."

"6 pm work?"

"yeah, yeah."

*beep*

"i'll see you then, awsten." i said, grabbing my things.

"y/n, wait, let me give you my number. so you can text me your address and whatnot." awsten reminded me. i mentally face palmed. of course i needed his number.

"oh, duh, i forgot." i laughed. "here."

i gave him my phone and he made himself a contact, taking the stupidest picture of himself possible for the contact photo. i just giggled and shook my head when he handed me my phone back.

"i'll text you my address later, sound good?" i said, putting my phone in my pocket.

"works for me. see you later, y/n." awsten replied, starting to walk out of class.

"later, awsten."

later that day

"hey, mom." i said, walking into the kitchen, grabbing a fruit.

"hi, sweetie, what's up?" my mom replied.

"is it okay if my science partner comes over for a bit tonight? we have a project we need to work on and it's the only night he has free." i asked her. she nodded.

"sure, just make sure he doesn't stay too late and you guys don't do anything stupid, if you know what i mean."

i sighed and face palmed, my face heating up a bit.

"mom, he's just a friend. barely, i just met this dude. plus, i'm only 16 i've never even had a boyfriend yet." i assured her. she just held her hands up.

"and, i'm 33. i just had to make sure." she replied. i sighed and just started to make my way upstairs.

"just working on the project. that's all!" i called to her. i then walked into my bedroom and flopped on my bed.

i went into contacts and found awsten's, tapping message. i then began to type, letting him know he could come whenever.

you: hey, it's y/n :) my mom said you can come whenever.

it only took a few minutes for him to reply.

awsten: sick. i'll be there around 5:30/6. what's ur address?
