Nicole.

11:15: hey Cole ;) x

11:17: Cole? Who?

11:18: Damn, how drunk are you? lo

11:20: Who are you and how did you get my number?

11:23: Wait, this seriously isn't Cole??

11:24: No, I don't know any Cole's. Sorry.

11:26: Who is this then?

11:27: I can't tell you..

What does that even mean? Is he a stalker? A serial killer?

"Here Nikki." She threw my phone at me. "You talk to him, I don't think Cole gave you the right number? What an idiot." She laughed

"What do you mean its not Cole?" I asked worried

"Just check your phone, I'm going to sleep. Goodnight Nikki" Quinn said yawning and jumping into bed.

I sat down on the mini couch in her room and stared at the bright phone screen, rereading the conversation finding out that it really wasn't Cole. For some reason I grew curious and wanted to figure who this person was?

11:34: Why not?

11:34: I just can't okay!?

11:35: Okay, sorry.

11:37: No, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to get mad, could we still talk?

11:38: Yeah, I guess.

11:41: Cool, so tell me about yourself.

11:43: There isn't much to tell, I'm boring.

11:43: Come on, there has to be something.

11:44: Well, I'm captain of the book club, I don't play any sports, my best friends name is Quinn and she was the one texting you for the first part of the conversation.

11:46: Who's Cole anyway?

I sighed and rolled my eyes, of course he wouldn't be interested in who I am no on ever is. I'm a very boring person and I can't help that.

11:46: Well Cole is..he's..I don't know how to describe him.

11:47: Is he your boyfriend?

11:47: NO, he's a bit....creepy. I feel mean saying this, but Quinn thinks he's obsessed with me but I think it's just a crush.

11:48: Obsessed? Is he stalking you?

11:50: No, he just doesn't like when I talk to guys. Which isn't a huge deal, no guys talk to me anyway. haha

11:51: He doesn't like when you talk to other guys? That's not really his business..

11:53: What am I supposed to tell him? I don't want to hurt his feelings, I'm halfway through Senior year, I can manage Cole for another few months.

11:54: You're too nice. What if he gets a weird obsession with you? What if he hurts you? I don't want to turn on the news one day to hear you got murdered by Creepy Cole.

11:54: I'm fine, and I'll be fine. You're worried over nothing, I'm always with Quinn. She wouldn't let anything happen to me.

11:55: But what if I'm not worrying over nothing, what if he really does hurt you? Please just text me everyday just so I know you're okay.

11:57: I don't know who you are and you don't know who I am. Calm down, I'll text you if I really need something okay?

11:58: Good.

12:00: Getting a bit protective, are we?

12:01: Just don't want to see him or anyone else hurt you.

12:03: Nicole Parks.

12:04: Huh?

12:04: That's my name, Nicole Parks.

12:06: I really want to tell you who I am.

12:07: So tell me..

12:07: I'm going to go to sleep, okay?

12:09: Night.

Why is it so hard for him to just tell me who he is?

I shut off my phone and sighed. I cuddled up with the blankets, a million thoughts racing through my mind.

Who is he?

Why can't he tell me who he is?

Do I know him?

My eyes slowly shut and I let sleep takeover.
