I got a crush on you

A Scavenger Hunt

I wake up to a buzzing noise, blinking away the sleep I reach out to where the buzzing noise is coming from, I realize it’s my phone and I’m getting a text. I groan, look at who it’s from and I smile.  Crush ♥  I unlock my phone and read the text and finding out there are three different messages. Good morning cutie, Can I kiss you?,  and the latest one, Get your cute butt up!  I laugh and then realize what time it is, seven-fifteen. ‘SHIT!!!’ I jump off the bed and almost end up tripping in the cover and falling but I recover. Rushing into the bathroom and ripping off my clothes I hop into the shower and about fall.  Today just isn’t my day! 

About five minutes later, I am out and half dressed in only boxers and a red v-neck, I stand in front of my closet blow-drying my hair while trying to figure out what jeans to wear, when my phone starts ringing. I shut off the blow dryer, grabbing some jeans and answering my phone. ‘Hell…hello?

‘Hey Alex. Are you still at home?’

‘Ye…yaah. I woke up la…late.’

‘Yeah I noticed you didn’t leave your house and I wanted to make sure you were alright.’

‘Yeah, but I…I’m going to b…be so late to sc…school.’

‘I can give you a ride if you want. I’m leaving in like fifteen minutes.’

‘Yeah ca…can you ple…please?’

‘Yeah sure no problem, see ya in fifteen.’

‘Than…thanks Matt.’

‘No problem.’ Matt hangs up and I pull on my jeans and finish blow drying my hair. Walking into the bathroom and starting to style and straighten my hair.

Ten minutes later, I am done and walking downstairs heading in the kitchen. There’s a note on the fridge;  Hey honey, you know it’s Valentine’s Day and we hate to do this to you two days in a row, but your father is taking me out. But we left you some money to get a pizza or whatever you want for dinner and some chocolate. They’re by your keys in the bowl. Try to have a good day.

We love you.

Xoxo

Mom and Dad 

I grab water from the fridge and walk into the living room, grabbing my keys, the money and the chocolate and head out the door towards Matt’s.

I knock on Matt’s door and Mister Flyzik answers and let me into the house. ‘Matt, Alex is here.’ Matt comes down the stairs, ‘Ready?’

‘Yup let…let’s go.’

Matt and I walk out to his car, I walk over to the passenger side of the car and see there’s a heart taped to the window. I look up at Matt, ‘What’s wrong Alex?’

‘There’s a Val…valentine on you…your car for m…me.’

‘What?’ Matt says and walks over to the side of the car. ‘Open it.’ I grab it and peel it off the window and open it.

matt maybe your chariot today, my love, but I will every day after today. give matt these directions and come find me. 

I um what?! I look at Matt and I show him the heart, and he read it over. He takes the heart and walks over to the driver’s side and gets in. I slowly get in not really knowing what to think. I shut the door and Matt starts up the car. My phone starts buzzing in my pocket;  don’t worry your cute little head about school. I told them that all three of us had a family emergency and we’re skipping.  My phone buzzes again; don’t worry about your parents either, they know what’s going on today and they approve.
