**************************

I woke up the next morning to a loud, annoying shrill coming from my phone. "What the hell?" I said groggily. "OHMIGOD RIGHT!" I sat up in bed and had the biggest smile plastered on my face. I opened spotify and started to play my favorite playlist. As I was listening to my music, I managed to take a shower, straighten my hair, and do my makeup to perfection all within 40 minutes! Yes! New record! I went into my closet and saw that the only things I had unpacked were sweatshirts, my nice dresses so they don't get wrinkled, and a few casual clothes. I quickly ran to my favorite pink shirt that has a bow on the back. I paired that with my dark wash shorts that have jewels on the butt and throw on some gold sandals. As I'm waiting for Mark to show up I sit on my couch and scroll through twitter. Okay not really, I'm just re reading that message Mark sent. Just as I looked over the message, there was a knock. I quickly ran to the door, fixed my hair and opened it.

Marks P.O.V

"Hey I'm Mark, I assume you're Eleanor?" I smiled my best smile. Wow she was really pretty; I'm not going to deny that. But someone as pretty as her surly has a boyfriend.

"Y-yes." She stuttered and fumbled over her words. Man, she was adorable. "It's-um-really nice to-um-meet you Mark. I've been a fan of yours for a while and I was-um-really glad that you actually saw my tweet and decided to show me around. I just can't believe that you noticed me I mean, after all those years of trying to get you to notice me you did and now you're here and so am I meeting you in person and-oh god I'm rambling. I'm sorry I do this a lot when I'm nervous and-"

"El, it's fine." I chuckled a little bit and smiled. She seemed to relax a little bit and she smiled back. "Well m'lady, shall we go on an adventure of epic proportions?"

"Yeah sure." She giggled.

"Well then.....the last one to my car is a rotten egg!" I bolted down the hallway.

"Hey wait up!" She laughed and chased after me. We had finally made it to my car and we were both a panting mess. "Jesus Christ Mark! I don't think there will ever be a dull moment with you!" She laughed, trying to catch her breath.

"You know it baby." I playfully winked at her. Well, I mean, playful from her perspective. I truly meant the wink because, well, it's my attempt at flirting.

"Well if you haven't eaten yet, I can take you somewhere to breakfast? There's a Denny's right down the street?" I suggested.

"That sounds absolutely perfect." She smiled.

*****time skip boring drive******

Eleanor's P.O.V

"So, what do you do for a living?" Mark asked me as I was cutting up my pancakes.

"Well nothing yet, really. I'm going to be a freshman at UCLA this upcoming semester so as it will be taking up most of my time, I guess that will be my job for a while. Though I might apply for a small job on the side. Maybe at Starbucks?" I thought out loud.

"Oh! My friend is the manager of a nearby Starbucks. I can get you a job interview if you'd like." He said, sounding genuine.

"Really? That would be amazing, thank you." I smiled. As we were both hungry, we decided to just enjoy each others company and eat our breakfast in comfortable silence. After we finished, Mark drove us to downtown LA to go shopping.

"This is great for people watching, by the way." As he said that, I looked around to see many extravagant people and street performers. It all looked so intimidating and I all of a sudden felt small and became aware of the huge mass of people around me. My mind starting wandering to scenarios that I could get lost and not find my way home or I could get kidnapped. Mark seemed to sense it too as I went silent and he grabbed my hand for reassurance. I felt myself blush madly and I smiled at him to thank him. Soon, we were back on our way just walking along and occasionally going int stores. I had only bought a few new clothes and some things to decorate my new apartment with.

Too soon, it was nearing 9:00 pm and we were standing outside my door. Mark had taken me to a wonderful restaurant that I would defiantly be going to again.

"Thank you Mark, I had an amazing day." I smiled up at him.

"No it really wasn't a big deal. If I hadn't seen your tweet, I would be stuck inside my apartment doing nothing." He said jerking his thumb to his right.

"Wait, why'd you point over there?" I asked.

"Oh! I live next to you." He laughed and I suddenly felt very stupid.

"Oh I'm sorry I didn't know god I'm an idiot." I blushed furiously.

He chuckled "No you're not, there's no way you could've known! Anyway, I have to go and edit some videos. I'll see you tomorrow?" He asked.

"For sure." I responded.

"Oh and one more thing before I forget." He kissed my cheek and slid something into my back pocket. Then turned and went into his apartment without saying another word. I went inside, still a little dazed and took out whatever we put in my pocket and saw it was a note.

"(123)-456-7890 -Mark <3"

I may have squealed a little bit and I heard Mark laughing through the walls.
