The experiment

The meeting

It took like 5 minutes before we got drinks and I was so thirsty I drank like half of my drink in one drink "You better slow down Ian or you have to go to the bathroom" My mom said and just as she said that I had to go to the bathroom. "I'm gonna go to the bathroom," I said getting out of my chair "Ok hurry back". I went to the bathroom, and when I got out to wash my hands, the boy that I saw was there too. "I like your shirt, we're," He said, "Oh thank you I like your jeans" "Thanks I got them for like 10 bucks at Walmart" "So you new here?" He asked "Um yea how did you know" "I heard new people were moving in the neighborhood" I was confused "I can tell by your face you're confused, you and I live right next to each other" Once he said that I got all red. "So you go to Burbank High School?" I asked "Yep, well see you later," He said walking away "Ok bye" When he was walking out the door a piece of paper fell out of his jacket pocket "Um hey you dropped this'' I said picking the piece of paper up "Keep it," He said with a smile grin growing on his face. I walked to the table and sat down "Well did you fall asleep in there?" My mom said I didn't hear her because I was thinking about the boy I Ran into in the bathroom "sorry what did you say?" I asked "You ok there Ian?" She asked, "Oh yeah why?" I asked. I keep on looking at the piece of paper wondering if I should open it or not. I went ahead and opened it
My name is Carl and I would like to get to know you by calling or texting me at some point (417) 630-5559. I hope to be hearing from you soon.
It was kind of weird because I was thinking why he would give me his phone number to a random guy that he didn't even know. *Could it be love at first sight, No your overthinking Ian you don't even know the guy but was this a sign*. We got home and I was in my room looking at the piece of paper and it was driving me nuts. Should I text him or should I throw the paper away? Ugh why not I said to myself grabbing my phone off of my nightstand and opening it. I put his number in and I texted him I didn't know what to text him I thought about just saying hey this is Ian but I didn't figure he didn't know what my name was so I just sent Hey this is Ian the one you in the Restaurant It took a little bit for him to text back but when he did it was kind of fun and weird at the same time Huh, so Ian that's your name I like it and hey how are you Lol I'm doing good what about you that's good but I have a question Yea what's up Why did you give me your number I mean i didn't mind but why me Well you might not have notice but I saw you staring at me once in awhile at the Restaurant and kind of thought you keep on looking at me because of either two things you thought I looked good or you thought I looked weird Wow this guy is good but I did think he was good looking but there was no way I could tell him this I mean we don't even know each other Well I don't think you look weird that's for sure as soon as I sent that I Automatically regret it *What the hell were you thinking Ian you just embarrassed yourself good going* Lol thanks you're not too bad looking yourself Ian, Well I got to go to bed so see you at school tomorrow Oh ok good night see you at school tomorrow. Ok so I was thinking a lot like wow what a crazy first day I mean most people would have thought a guy like carl was weird but I thought it was cheesy and funny at the same time I mean why me or when did he write the paper I mean did he just know that I would be there or did he hear me when I told my mom I was going to the bathroom. I didn't sleep that good that night but that's been normal for me ever since my dad died grows at night was different but I couldn't put a finger on it. I got up and I went to get dressed when my phone went off. Good morning sleepy head Good morning do you ride the bus? No, I walk to school Ah well then when you leave to meet me on the sidewalk Um ok. I went to go get dressed I put on a black shirt, it had the word Adidas on it and then I put on a black leather jacket and dark blue jeans with my black and white converse and my thick brown hair was all over the place so I just brushed it and let it do it's one thing.
