Ray's pov
~~~
I had been getting weird messages all week, some flirty ones, some pictures of guys dicks, and even some of girls bodies. I blocked each number once I saw the content of the message but no matter how many numbers I blocked, the messages just kept coming. At some point I just had to put my phone on vibrate, even then feeling it go off was annoying.
To get my mind off everything I invited my best friends, Nat and Gilda, out for a day. I told them both about everything that was happening and they both expressed their feelings about my situation but I just wanted to be distracted from it.
At the end of the day, we decided to go to Olive Garden, I put my phone on the table while I ate. Soon there were more vibrations from my phone, I rolled my eyes and picked it up, another unknown number.

unknown number:
Hello! I don't know who you are but I found your number along with many others on a bathroom stall.
Ray:
Oh god, can you please cover it up for me?
unknown number:
Yeah sure.
unknown number:
Alright, I covered it for you.
Ray:
Oh my god, thank you so much.
unknown number:
No problem, I find stuff like this all the time.
Ray:
How can I repay you?
unknown number:
You don't have to
Ray:
Please just let me repay you. In anyway you want to, it doesn't even have to be right now, just anytime you need me to.
unknown number:
Your not gonna let me say no are you?
Ray:
No
unknown number:
In that case, I accept your offer.

I set my phone down and sighed.
"What's wrong?" Gilda asked.
"Nothing," I smiled, "Someone found my number written on a stall in some public restroom. They covered it for me."
"Oh that's good." Nat said, Gilda nodded in agreement.
-- A few weeks later --
I had almost completely forgotten the incident when suddenly I got a message from an unknown number.
-
unknown number:
Hi, I know its been a while but I finally know a way you can repay me.
Ray:
Oh, okay.
unknown number:
Can I get to know you?
Ray:
Odd request but sure.
unknown number:
Okay, first, how old are you?
Ray:
24
unknown number:
Really? I'm the same age.
Okay, you ask a questions now.
Ray:
Of all the ways to repay you, why this one? Most people just ask for money.
unknown number:
I already have enough money. And my sister who is the only person I really talk to is in a coma.
I was kinda hoping one of the people I helped would be a cool person to talk to.
Ray:
Oh. Well sorry about your sister, also its your turn to ask a question.
unknown number:
:)
Okay uhh...

"And lets just say we kept talking and never stopped." Ray said to Alastair, "Especially your father, he could talk for hours."
At that exact moment Norman came running inside. Screaming.
"There was a ladybug! Which I know isn't scary but I was admiring the ladybug because ladybugs are really pretty. But anyways I was watching the ladybug and it started crawling on my good plants, which took me a long time to plant, so I gently moved the ladybug off my plants and then I followed it when it started crawling on the grass. Eventually Bonnie and Clyde came over and we all started following the ladybug all around the yard, eventually it stopped walking and just stayed still, it was on one of the strawberries, anyways the neighbors dog came over and fucking ate the strawberry the ladybug was on."
Ray and Alastair stared at him.
Ray took a deep breath, "Uh huh, so... did you just leave Bonnie and Clyde outside by themselves?"
Norman went wide eyed, "Shit." he then ran outside.

Probably not the best but honestly I wrote this down in my head at first and then I forgot what I wrote.
Also, we're up to 16.1 K reads, like holy shit??
I know there's definitely a lot of better writers out there, so thank you everyone for taking the time to read even if it's not good.
Also this chapter is number 69 for anyone out there who wants to make 69 jokes.
