And So We Met (A Toby Turner Fan Fiction)

Chapter Three

Toby's POV

The ride to Jack's wasn't long, I reached his house in about twenty minutes, leaving ten minutes to look over what he's done so far for YGS #50. I texted him that I was here and walked up to his door, right when he opened it.

"Hey man!"

"Hey Jack! How's YGS going?"

"Awuh man it's going great. How've you been, since you know, Olga..."

"I've been doing okay, I guess. It's just better that we're friends anyway, you know?"

"If you say so man. Let me just grab a few things, and we'll head out. Where do you wanna go?"

"I don't know. IHOP I guess. I haven't been there in ages."

"IHOP it is then. Come on, I'm ready," Jack said, and we walked out to Convertibuscus and got in. I thought about asking Siri for directions, but then thought better of it. I can get to IHOP without Siri, right? Wrong. I ended up driving all around LA, and had to ask Siri for directions anyway. But not before a quick Starbucks run, which I think was the root of my problem. We eventually got to IHOP around one. It was pretty good timing if you ask me, because we were seated in a booth immediately. After about ten minutes of looking at the menu, I noticed that the booth across from us was now occupied. I looked over and saw none other than my new neighbor and Kalel.

"Jack," I whispered. "Jack! JACK!!"

"What is it Toby," he said, not looking up from his menu.

"Do you see those two girls across from us?"

Jack looked up from his menu, and looked over. After a few seconds, he turned back to me. "Yeah man that's Kalel and Taylor."

"Kalel and who?"

"Taylor. She just moved here."

"How did you know?"

"I'm subscribed to her channel. I watch her videos," Jack said, blushing a little bit. We stopped talking to order our food, and when our waiter had gone, I continued the conversation.

"Oh. She's my new neighbor."

"SHE'S YOUR WHAT?!"

"SHHHHH! Keep your voice down!" I whispered. Jack just stared at me in shock. Just then our food came. I started eating while Jack just kept on looking at me. "Jack, eat," I insisted. "I'll tell you everything when we get back to your place." After a minute or two, he began eating, but looked at me skeptically through the whole meal.
