Josh's POV

I laid on my bed sighing exhausted from the long but wonderful day. I slipped off my shirt and pants and laid down on my bed falling asleep quickly.

I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock and ran to the shower. After I was done, I slipped on some baggy jeans, and a t-shirt before fixing my hair. Grabbing a cereal bar and a poptart for breakfast, I sat down on my couch looking for something to watch. Nothing was on other than cartoons and random stupid shows. So instead I got out my phone and texted Nicole.

[ hey good morning :)]

[morning]

[ u need a ride to school?]

[ no silly, i got my own car]

[ lemme rephrase that. Do you wanna ride to school?]

[ not really, I dont need an escort everywhere. I think I can manage myself ;)]

[ well ur getting one. I'll pick u up in ten?]

[i said i dont need a ride]

[too bad. I'm going over in ten whether u like it or not]

[fine then.. If u must ;)]

[see ya xoxo]

[yep. xoxo]

I smiled and leant back onto the couch. Nicole was such a wonderful girl and I was so lucky to have her. I ran my fingers through my hair almost messing it up before running to grab my keys and rushing out the door. I drove to Nicole's house and walked up to her front door knocking on it softly.

"Coming!"

The door swung open and I saw a beautiful lady standing in front of me will slightly wet hair. She was breathing heavily like she had run to the door as fast as she could from upstairs. I smiled and took her hand.

"Ready?"

"Yeah, let me grab my stuff."

"Okay. I'll be waiting."

She turned around and rushed away, my hand suddenly feeling lonely and cold without her warmth. I sighed and put my hand back down at my side waiting patiently while she got her stuff. Finally after getting all her stuff together she appeared back at the door smiling and ready to go.

"Need me to carry any of that?"

"Nah, I'm good. Thanks."

"You sure?"

"Yeah."

I took out my keys and unlocked the doors getting into my seat. The drive was silent and I heard Nicole shift in her seat uncomfortably. I looked over at her face a couple of times and saw that she was deep in thought. About what I wasn't sure. So focusing my eyes on the road, I continued driving and we finally arrived at the school.

I stepped out and walked over to Nicole's side to open the door for her.

"Thanks," she said before taking my hand and walking to the front doors. We hugged and kissed before going our separate ways to our classes.

The week sped by fast and I found myself drumming my fingers impatiently against the wood of my desk. I had planned on seeing Nicole again this week and maybe going to a fair. There were still a few open now.

Finally the bell sounded announcing the end of the day and the beginning of a weekend as everyone fought l with each other pushing through the door wanting to get out first. I just stood back and watched all the action laughing to myself at how excited the people were. After everyone was out, I slowly walked out looking for Nicole. She was nowhere in sight. Guessing that she was probably having a educational conversation with the teacher about today's class, I walked out to my car to wait for her.
