I waited for hours, hoping he would text me. I was so dumb. I should've gotten his number so I could text him first, although that probably isn't a great idea. Also, why would he text me? I'm some random girl he met in a store. He probably offered his number to be nice.
Just then my phone buzzes, making me jump a little. I see a random number pop up with a message.
Random Number: hey its conan :)
Me: hi :)
Conan: hru?
Me: im good, hru?
Conan: im okay
Conan: wyd?
Me: sitting on my bed
Me: wbu?
Conan: same
After a few minutes I wait, hoping for him to add a follow up. I'm not very good at keeping conversations going. I feel my phone buzz, and I immediately reach for it.
Conan: do u wanna call?
I stare at the message for a second, trying to think of a good answer.
Conan: if not that's completely ok
Me: no we can
Conan: okay :)
I feel my phone vibrating, his name coming up on the screen. I clear my throat, then answer. "Hello?" I say questioningly. "Hey" he responds. "We should hang out at some point-" I blurt out. I was in disbelief of what I had just said. "We should" The words rang in my ear, shocking me. After a moment of silence, I hear his voice again. "When?" he questions. I think about my answer, and when I'll be free. "Tomorrow?"
"Sounds good!" he replies. After this, we talked on the phone for 3 hours, just getting to know each other. That's when I look at the time and notice the clock. "Oh gosh, it's 2 am!" he says through the phone. I stare at my clock, in disbelief we had talked this long. "I'll let you go, we can plan to hang out tomorrow!" he says. "Alright, bye!" I say. "Bye!"
I stare at my ceiling, holding my phone in my hand. I can't stop smiling. I feel my phone vibrate, and I see his name.
Conan: good night <3
I stare at the message for at least two minutes, then realize I should probably respond.
Me: good night <3
I set my phone down abruptly, scared of what I had just sent. Maybe it wasn't meant the way I was taking it. I pick up my phone, looking at the screen.
