Miles Away

Texting Is A Start

The picture he sent her!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next day was Monday, which meant going back to hell. Or school as you may call it. I got up at 6 a.m, and got ready quite fast, though I did have only a hour to get ready. Yeah, my school actually started a 7! Anyway, as I was eating breakfast, I heard my phone go off so I checked it. It was a notification from JinksLinks. Late last night before I went to bed, I found out there was an app for the website, so I downloaded it, obviously. Opening the notification, I saw it was a message from Collin. Remember what happened last time we spoke? The dude had a full on tantrum.

Hey, what's your number?

What. Was he serious? I glared at my phone as if he could see me, and replied back,

You want my phone number?

Yeah. Why? I wanna text you on something other than this slow old website.

Me, being the stupid me, gave him my phone number, after I sent out the number, I immediately regretted it. I just gave someone my number who I just met the other day! I am stupid. After a few seconds went by of me yelling at myself for giving him my number, I got a notification in my text messages. It was from a blocked number, but opened it knowing it was him.

Hey ;D I got your numberrr

But yours is blockeddd...

Yeah, I don't want you to see mine.

How did you even block it?

Secret.

Realizing the time at the top of my phone I said;

Ok, I gtg, I have to go to school, ugh.

Me too, bye

bye.

And with that, I got up from the table, and cleaned my food up. My mom was already at her work, so I had to walk the five minutes to school, which was fine, I need the exercise anyway.

At school was a normal day, I went to my classes, saw the occasional couple making out passionately in the hallway, making me slightly jealous. I've always been obsessed with love. Love stories, love movies, love in real life, any kind of love. It's so crazy how passionate I am about it. I was about to leave the school building when I heard my name being screamed across the hallway, I turned around to see Penelope, and Lucas running towards me like I was about to save their lives.

" KIARA! WAIT!" yelled Lucas and Penelope at the same time, it was weird...

"Hey, guys!" I said as soon as they reached me, I was giggling the whole time they were struggling to get to me through all the bodies in their way.

"hey, we are coming over today, I haven't seen you in three days!" Penelope said matter-of-factly.

"Ok, I know my mom won't mind," I said smiling at them. We've all been best friends since kindergarten when I moved here. We are all also not in any of the same classes this year, which sucked because we were always in the same classes.

We began walking out again before I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket, I pulled it out and saw it was of course, Collin texting me on his blocked number, I don't even know how he even managed to block his number for texting but what ever. I opened the text message, Lucas and Penelope were in a conversation about some teacher they hated. The message was a picture. An actual picture sent on my phone. I've never thought that would happen. Ever. I tapped on the picture to load it, and up came popping up was a gorgeous face. I swore I saw that face before...OH MY GOD! It was the guy in the picture on Collin's profile! Oh my god, was that him? That cute boy was messaging me the whole time!?
