A Hopeless Romantic

-picture of skatepark above-

My mind was a mess in the morning. I felt the need to call Aaron, but only felt that would end in me embarrassing myself.

I unlock my phone, only to find 3 new messages.

From: Aaron

Savannah, where are u? We can't find u anywhere
---
From: Aaron

I hope ur safe Savannah. Txt me when u get this. We need to talk.
---
To: Aaron

I'm fine... Just a bit heart broken is all

I leave the message temporarily, clicking on the other missed message.

From: Blondie Bitch

Even tho we're not a couple, were meant to be. Don't even THINK about laying a finger on him!
---
To: Blondie Bitch

I'm sorry, but do u own him? Didn't think so. Bye, friend!

I exit out of that conversation, only to find another message from Aaron.

From: Aaron

Where u at
---
To: Aaron

My house...

From: Aaron

B right there

Well, shit.

I rushed upstairs, then changed into black leggings and a white crop top.

"Ew" I say as I see how ratchet my hair looks. Quickly, i brush it out and pull it into a messy bun. "Better."

Seconds later, I hear someone knocking. I open it to see Aaron and that tall kid wearing the Honey shirt.

"Hi."

"Why did you leave, Savannah?" Aaron asks.

I keep my silence.

He grabs my shoulders, making me look at him. "Savannah."

I take interest to the ground again.

"Let's go. Abby's waiting for me." The tall kid says.

Aaron gives me a long, hard look. His eyes were filled with what seemed to be sadness.

Eventually, Aaron gave up, then turned back to the other kid.

"Let's go, Steven."

So his name was Steven...

I closed the front door, then ran back upstairs.

Before taking my picture, I applied a bit of mascara and a winged eyeliner look to my eyes.

I took a selfie in front of a white wall. In the picture, I was looking downwards, staring at the ground.

Leaving the photo completely unedited, I posted to Instagram, the caption saying 'May have just lost a friend  ps he didn't die tho'.

Immediately, I gain thousands of likes.

Why all these people follow me, I have no clue. I'm just a basic girl, nothing special about me.

Bored of reloading the screen, I went to take a shower. Once done, I lather myself in lotion and pull on black, high waisted shorts and the white crop top from earlier.

I again checked my phone, then saw a notification that caught my eye.
