( Evelyn's Pov )

"Evelyn, wake up. We're here," I woke up to Dylan gently shaking me.

"What?" I rubbed my eyes.

"We're here," he repeated, getting up and starting to wake Kaya. I got up, grabbed my luggage, and went outside the bus. As I walked into the gym, I saw Thomas.

"Hey, Evelyn," he waved.

"Hi, Thomas," I said and hugged him.

"Do you want to go home? I can drop you off," he suggested.

"Nah, it's alright, Thomas. Besides, Dylan's here," I said.

"Okay," he said.

"So, how did you sleep?" I asked him.

"Not great," he said.

"Why?" I laughed.

"Ki Hong was sleeping on my lap while his legs were on Will's lap, and he was so heavy," he shrugged.

"Hey, I heard that," Ki Hong shouted, and we laughed.

"Yeah, 'cause you're a fatass," Will said, and they started chasing each other. It was hilarious to watch. Then I saw Dylan and Kaya holding hands as they entered the gym.

"Hey, guys," Kaya said.

"Alright, class, let me announce something. Thank you so much for participating in our field trip camp. Next week is our last three days of class. You guys can prepare your graduation stuff. Before you go, please clean out your lockers. Thank you," our teacher yelled.

"Oh yeah, the song we're doing on Monday," I said to Thomas.

"Yeah, do you want to practice it at my house tomorrow?" Thomas suggested.

"Yeah, but can you pick me up?" I asked.

"Yeah, what time?"

"How about 10 a.m.?" I said.

"Yeah, sure."

"Bye, Thomas. See you tomorrow," I hugged him and went into the hallway to clean my locker. There I saw Kaya cleaning her locker.

"Hey, Kaya," I said.

"Oh, hey, Evelyn. I'm so sad. I'm gonna miss my locker," Kaya said as she ripped off the wallpaper and pictures in her locker. Thank God I didn't put any stuff in my locker. My locker was simple and clean, so it was easy to clean it. After we finished cleaning our lockers and put everything in our backpacks, we went outside to meet Dylan. We drove off, dropped off Kaya, and then Dylan and I went home. We were greeted by our parents.

"Hey, Mom," I said. "Hi, Dad."

"Hi, Mom and Dad," Dylan said.

"Hey, kids, how was camp?" my mom asked like we were ten years old.

"It was great," I said.

"Yeah, great," Dylan smirked at me.

"Did something happen?" Dad asked, and Dylan looked at me. I gave Dylan a 'not to tell' look, but he did it anyway.

"Evelyn has a boyfriend," Dylan blurted out.

"Who?" my mom smiled at me.

"Thomas," I smiled.

"Ooh, that guy. He looks so nice and handsome," my mom replied.

"The Sangsters?" Dad asked.

"Yeah," Dylan said.

"You have taste, Evelyn," Dad laughed. I am so thankful for having a supportive family.

I went to my room and took a shower. Afterward, I changed into my pajamas, grabbed my laptop, and started watching the Ha Sisters. I love their videos; they're so hilarious, especially Erica. I was in the middle of laughing when my phone buzzed.

Thomas🤍:
Thomas: Hey, Evelyn. 
Me: Hey, wanna ft? 
Thomas: Alright

My phone rang. I clicked on it and saw Thomas's sleepy face.

"Hey," I chuckled.

"Hey," he mumbled.

"Hey, I know that song. Why are you listening to 'Love Story' by Taylor Swift?" I laughed at him.

"It's my sister's. It's so loud," he rolled his eyes.

"Hey, I saw that," I chuckled, and he laughed.

"I was just kidding. I like her songs."

"More than me?" I joked a little, hoping he would get the joke.

"Yeah, more than you," he replied sarcastically.

"So, uh, tomorrow, come pick me up at 10?" I asked.

"Yeah, love," he said.

"Can I ask you something?" he replied with a hum.

"Why do you call me love and not babe?"

"Because I love you," he said, and my heart melted.

"Aww."

"What should I call you?" I asked.

"Call me whatever you want," he said.

"How about shuck face?" I smiled.

"Hey, for your information, I read The Maze Runner," I laughed.

"How about I call you slinthead?" he replied.

"Alright, shuck face," I said.

"Okay then, slinthead."

We both laughed at each other because of the hilarious nicknames. We talked for 15 minutes before I hung up since I really wanted to read.

~time skip~

It was dinner time. I headed outside and went to eat dinner.

"Hey, guys," I said.

"Oh, what's for dinner?" Dylan asked.

"Spaghetti," Mom replied.

"Yeah, my favorite!" I smiled with happiness. After eating dinner, I headed back to my room and slept. I didn't know why, but I fell asleep immediately. I guess I was tired.
