Out of the Park

Sweet Spot ✔️

Sweet Spot: A location on the barrel of the bat that is perfect for the batter to hit a ball on. Hitting a ball here will produce the most solid contact possible.

I tried so hard to play it off like I was actually a cool person but the entire car ride I was a disaster; ranting to Juniper about the massive crush I have on Joey and how I couldn't believe that a guy like him would want to go on a date with me of all people. Safe to say I was a nervous wreck.

Shortly after Juniper drove off, Joey had sent me a text message that I just keep rereading over and over again because I can't think of anything to say for the life of me that wouldn't sound crazy.

✨GrumpiLocks✨: we can go wherever you's like, love

✨GrumpiLocks✨: *you'd 

I don't think there is any possible for me to answer this without sounding obsessed because I am one hundred percent obsessed with Joey.

Me🤪: how about i just throw out some options and you pick one lol

Me🤪: idk if i can handle having the sole decision

For an hour, Joey and I message back and forth about what we should do for our date and we finally landed on a small restaurant on the edge of the town for the sake of our privacy and keeping our relationship on the down low for the time being. At least until we make it official. 

Which I hope is soon.

But, ignoring the "down low" thing, I immediately texted Rosie all about the date I had just set up with literally the guy of my dreams.

Me 🤪: O.M.F.G. u will nvr beleive wat i jst did

The message wasn't even delivered for thirty seconds before I got an immediate response.

Rosie🥀🖤: pushed juniper down the stairs w/out getting in trouble?

Not at all the response I was expecting.

Me🤪: no, dumbass, im goin on a date w/ joey

I doubt she even read the message properly before she called me.

"OH MY GOD YOU BITCH YOU ACTUALLY DID IT??"

"Please, don't sound too surprised," I rolled my eyes as I settled myself on my bed, still slightly shocked that I'm actually going on a date with Joey.

"Shut up, I'm allowed to be shocked when my loser of a best friend has a date with one of the hottest guys at school. And that's saying something considering that I am a lesbian."

"Okay, I'm going to ignore that you just called me a loser and tell you absolutely every detail of what went down tonight."

Luckily for me, she actually stayed quite on the other side of the phone as I go into excruciating detail from how I noticed he was distracted in the locker room, us making out after the game, to him asking me out on a date right before my brother drove me home. I actually applaud her for not mocking any of the situations that I talked about.
