The next morning I was woken by a loud sound coming from the kitchen. I sat up from the couch hoping it was just my mother. I took out my phone and look at the clock, it read 11:37am. It couldn't be my mother, she's at work. I grabbed my dads baseball bat and began slowly stepping toward the kitchen. I heard more shuffling coming from my fridge, my hands were shaking of fear. I walk into the kitchen to find my best friend Angela eating cereal out of the box and drinking milk from the jug.
"Fuck Angela, you scared the shit out of me" I said letting my breath go and dropping the bat.
"Sorry dude, I had the key And I'm hungry and broke" she said grabbing a bag of chips.
She grabbed a soda and her chips and sat on the couch.
"May I remind you that it is 11:40 am and you're opening a soda" I said sitting down next to her.
"I know but I actually don't care" she replied
"Okay dude" I said reaching for the remote
"Hey aren't you meeting that dude soon?" She asked stuffing chips into her mouth
"Yeah, he's coming this weekend" I said excitedly
"I'm so happy for you man" she said smiling
"I want you to meet him too, I think he'll like you and Michael" I replied
"Are you serious, that would be amazing!" She said happily
"Yeah, you're my best friend and I'd love for you to meet my "boyfriend" " I replied
"Didn't you tell me you were having some doubts about him" she asked flipping through channels deciding what to watch
"Yeah, I needed to talk to you about that" I said
"What is it?" Angela asked
"I called the creators of Catfish, you know the TV show, and they've agreed to help me out."
She say there speechless for a second before she replied " so you're gonna be on the wildly popular television show Catfish, and didn't tell me till now!?"
"I guess?" I said curiously
"That's awesome man, can't wait to meet the dude" she said
I was so amazingly excited to finally meet my love, but thinking about it sort of frightened me. What if he want who I thought he was? What if he's been lying to me this whole time? Why am I worrying? He wouldn't do that.
Right?
