I called my mom for a ride home and she picked me up. "Did you have fun?" She asked as we drove home. "Yeah, I guess I did, I made a new friend" I told her. "Oh, really? What's her name?" She questioned. "Actually he's a boy. And his name is Calum." I replied. "Cool, honey!" As she said that, I mental face palmed. I was always talking about Calum Hood at home, didn't she get the hint?

It was a silent ride home until my phone buzzed. It was Calum. I still couldn't get over the fact that I had Calum Hood's phone number in my cell phone. Who gets that lucky at a party they didn't even want to go to?! The text read, "Hey Nicki! I'm free tomorrow and I was wanting if you wanted to hang out?" The first thought that came to my head was that he was asking me out on a date. Suddenly, I remembered that he already had a girlfriend, which is why I met him in the first place. I replied back to his text, "Yeah def! I'm free tomorrow. What do you want to do?"

That night, I texted with Calum until I got tired and told him I had to go to bed and that I would see him tomorrow. I checked my feed on Twitter one more time before shutting off my phone, seeing that Calum had followed me. I laid on my back, staring at the ceiling. Calum Hood was going to pick me up tomorrow. And we were going somewhere. I didn't know where, but Calum seemed to have a place in mind, so I told him to surprise me. Just before I closed my eyes to go to sleep, I thought to myself,

I am so glad I went to that party
