I looked around,I was confused.

Why was he talking to me?

"Um,hi," I said,shyly.

"I saw you dancing in the crowd," He smirked.

"Well,so was everybody," I scoffed,I didn't know what was happening and what to feel about him talking to be.Lydia would lose her shit when she finds out.

"Well,you kind of got my attention," He emphasized the word 'well'.

I was seriously tongue-tied. I liked his company but I wasn't sure why.

He looked at his watch,which was on his right wrist. He must be left-handed, I thought.

"The band and I will hang out downtown,would you like to come?" He took a deep breath and asked.

I thought about it for a second because it was tempting. I was alone and it was friday. Then I remembered that I had a sister that had to be in bed before midnight

"I should really get going,my sister,Lilly, might be looking for me." I answered as I stood up.

"Wait,I never got your name," Cole mumbled.

"it's Jessica," I replied and went inside to find my annoying sister,without even saying goodbye.

-

"Jessica,it's time to wake up," I heard someone yelling downstairs.

I groaned and tried to find my phone under the sheets. I looked at the screen for new notifications and there was plenty. A few texts from Justine,telling me about her date last night. A few texts from group conversations and a new notifications from Instagram and Facebook. I logged on Instagram and saw that I was tagged in a photo from last night. It was a selfie of Brady and I,dancing. After that I went onsnapchat to watch some stories,that was pretty much my routine every morning.

After a while, I got up and went into bathroom. I looked in the mirror,convinced that I probably looked like shit,which I was. Just as I was washing my face,someone barged into my room.

"Oh my god,Jess!" Lilly could be a morning person but I certainly wasn't.It was interesting how we never even shared anything common,well now except for Swmrs. It's really hard to believe that we're even related.

"What do you want now?" I sighed.

"My photo with the band got over 100 likes on Instagram!" She was shoving her phone in my face.

"Do I look like I care? It's not something to be this excited about in the small hours of morning." I groaned as I continued to wash my face.

"You're so annoying,I'm just trying to make conversation here. FINE!" I could tell that she was going to ignore me for a few days and which made me happy.

I felt bad because I didn't want to be mean but I was still sleepy and I had a lot of things to do today. Packing for florida was on the top of that list.

I took my small suitcase out and started packing. We were only going to stay in Florida for 3 or 4 days which meant that I didn't need a larger suitcase to pack since I need minimum amount of actual clothes and maximum amount of swimsuits.

-

After a few hours,being the procrastinator that I am,I was finally ready and packed for Florida. My phone went off as I closed my suitcase

Justine: Are you done packing? x

"Just finished packing!" I texted her back, attaching a photo of my suitcase.

Justine: Ugh,help me. I don't know what to bring ):

"Just get off your bed and start doing it. I know you're laying in bed,doing nothing about it." She was such a couch potato.

Justine: Sometimes,I'm scared that you're living under my bed or hiding in the bushes outside my window.

I laughed my ass of at her text,I just knew her so well.

-

"Are you ready for tomorrow,honey?" My mother asked, as she was cooking for tonight.I nodded.

"Be sure to not forget bringing anything important with you!" She kept on talking and I kept on nodding as I was searching for good locations in Tampa.

"Are you even listening to me,Jessica?" She hissed.

"Huh?" I was still looking at my phone,which was making her pissed off.

"You spend too much time on your phone and it's killing every conversation that we have!" She exclaimed.

I put my phone down and hugged her.

"I'm sorry,will you be able to forgive me,my queen." I pouted and giggled.

"I'm serious,Jess. You have to spend more time socializing with real life people." She rolled her eyes,which made me laugh.

My phone buzzed,I was quick to take my phone out but my mom was even quicker.

"This will stay on the counter until we all finish dinner." She took phone away.

I groaned and was frustrated because I was in the middle of arguing with Brady about how pizza was the best thing in world but since he was mentally ill,he didn't accept it.

After I finished my dinner, I ran to the counter to take my phone. I had only one notification and itt wasn't from Brady.It said;

Cole Becker (grunge.mom) has requested to follow you.
