Akashi: "Numbers acquired"
Anna: "That's great! What's next?"
Akashi: "Hm maybe convince one of them to start distancing"
Anna: "Yeah maybe"
        I was in the living room, my mother currently yelling about how her life sucks. I was basically her therapist by now. I felt my phone buzz.
Akashi: "You ok Ali?"
Anna: "Yeah nothing is wrong"
He figured out i wasn't doing the best and offered to hang out with me at the park to make me feel better. Of course I agreed. My mother asked why I was smiling at my phone "No reason" which that sent her on a whole other rant on how love is a waste of time. I sighed this is going to be a long day.
Akashi: I'll be there at 12
      I felt my heart pounding- and I couldn't think straight.
Anna: See you there
Anna: Thank you Ash
      The rest of the day was ok but then it was night and I couldn't sleep. I replayed it over and over. From the time we met from now, when he texted me. Replaying every interaction over and over, every wave, every conversation, the slightest touch. My mind was racing and I couldn't turn it off, I screamed into my pillow hoping that it would turn it off at least long enough for me to sleep. Which thankfully it did, can't wait for tomorrow.
"Oooo why are you getting ready?" My sister asked standing my door way, "I'm hanging out with a friend" "Are you sure it's a friend we are talking about" she had a point, I turned my face away to hide the flustered expression "I'm sure" but unfortunately when you live with someone your whole life they know you a little too well. "I KNEW IT, WHO IS ITTTT" "Ok it's a guy-" "Aren't you gay?" "No- I'm pan idiot" "Oh wait yeah my bad continue" "So I have a small crush on him but so what?" "Small?" "I've only known him for like a month now yes small" I started to say something but realized- there is only one person I met a month ago, and unfortunately my sister isn't that dumb. "OMG THE GUY WHO HAS A GF?" "SHUT THE FUCK UP YOUR RIGHT NEXT TO ME STOP YELLING" "Oh yeah my bad, well that sucks for you" "Wow your so comforting" "I know right?" "Just let me get ready!" "Ok ok!" And she left, she had a point though, going to a park isn't a friend activity normally. Well I just won't think of it as anything more.
   I finished getting ready pretty quickly, which was complicated cause I wanted to look good because duh but like I can't try hard because he's just a friend right? Is a dress to much? Ok so not a dress or a skirt, too cold for shorts- eventually I decided on jeans and a long sleeve crop top.
   I walk to the park silently, I was a little nervous. The nerves faded when I saw him there, and I walked up to him. "Hey!" I walk up to him and wave, "Hello," and he waved, progress. We walked around for a while talking, I figured out some things about him, I asked him questions and he answered. He was actually really handsome- I stopped that thought. Just friends Ali just friends. We talked about Rose too and he met the other people or whatever. Which good on him, that's going to help out a lot later on, and he has their numbers too. Felt a little jealous but brushed it off, my main concern every time is how well the plan is made. I didn't want him to get caught and be In alot of trouble, but I also didn't want to make that fact obvious.
      The sun was starting to set so I suggested that we watched it, he thought for a minute before agreeing. We sat down next to each other in front of a lake, it was really pretty. The sunset had to red orange purple and it reflected over the lake. I threw some rocks into the lake and he was actually watching the sunset, "Hey, Im glad you did this Akashi, means alot" "Well i kinda needed a break too, y'know?" I tired to playfully shove him, but he was further away than I thought so I almost fell but I caught my self by grabbing his hand. "I almost died" me being dramatic, "You didn't almost die Ali" he laughed, "Right" we talked for the next 3 minutes before I realized I hadn't let go of his hand yet- I let go and I turned my face away to hide the flustered expression again. "Your welcome Ali." My stomach was doing full on cartwheels at this point. I muttered a Thank you, Damn it's so obvious right now.
      Eventually it got dark so we were walking home until it was time to go separate ways, "Text me tomorrow!" "I will I actually had a idea for Eloise" oh yeah that not to talk, felt kinda dumb trying to text just to text. "Oh- ok!" I tried my best to hide the disappointment, but if course he saw through it, "what happened?" I played dumb "nothing." he knows me too well "Ali. What happened?" The Ali always gets me, "Just to talk, not about Rose" he looked counfused and I felt bad- "Oh, sorry." "It's fine!" I really wasn't convincing because I could already tell her saw through that, "Bye Aka-" and he hugged me. "Good night Ali. I will talk to you tomorrow" Was kinda shocked but I hugged him back, I smiled, that made me feel better.
"Thank you Ash, Goodnight" but he didn't let go, and neither did I.
