"Give it! Will you give me that phone already!" Lexi screamed at me trying to take my phone away from me. The phone had woken her up after all and by the time she became fully awoke she found me sitting on the floor staring off into space. I guess his voice still affected me in ways I couldn’t explain, or control. While in my daze, Lexi, of course, had taken my phone and listened to my message. Again. She was so pushy...

"Ow!" I said as she stepped on my toes trying to get the phone from me. I was somewhat short for my age but Lexi was just slightly shorter than that. I was 160 cm tall (about 5'3") and Lexi followed with a few centimeters below. Although, she did wear a lot of heels, which often made me seem like the short one between us. "Ow! Stop stepping on me!"

"Well then give me that phone!" I wasn't sure what she wanted with it but if I would agree with whatever she had planned she would've just told me about it. She hadn't. Suddenly she stopped any attempt at getting my phone and just stood there in front of me. She became surprisingly quiet with what I had learned to recognize as her evil smile painted on her face. This worried me. A lot.

"What?" I asked not letting my guard down

"This is your last warning. Give me the phone and nothing bad will happen."

"Lexi, no. And what do you mean by ba-" was all I said before she jumped on me. Having grown up with four brothers she was skilled in fighting. In about two seconds she had me on my back down on the floor. And, in another four seconds, she had my shoulders pinned underneath her knees and was crushing my body under her weight. Who knew such a petite girl could weigh so much! As I struggled a bit to breath Lexi simply reached over my head to where my phone had landed.

"You're evil!" I hissed at her as I managed to make my breaths even.

"It's your fault for being my friend.” She said not faced at all. “Plus, I did warn you. So really this is all your fault."

"You have the weirdest logic." I said trying to wiggle out from underneath her. "What do you want with my phone anyway you already heard the message."

"Let me ask you something." she said either not realizing I was trying to escape or not worried that I would be able to get out. Probably the later.

"What did you forget the password?"

"Why don't you wanna talk to him?" Her question surprised me and I didn't answer. I couldn't. In reality I didn't know why I just knew that since I had heard his voice that I couldn’t talk to him. I didn’t want to face what he might think of me or… He just had too much control over me. That sort of control of someone shouldn’t be legal but Niall’s too pretty for jail…

"Mel, you obviously miss him, and I'm sure he misses you so-"

"You don't know that" I interrupted her. "For all we know he didn't even break his phone at all. Or..." I trailed off feeling too hurt to want to think of why else he wouldn't want to talk to me.

"Now I know you don't believe that. If he didn't care about you why would he call you. Twice now. And it hasn't even been a day's time."

"I know but..."

"Do I have to kick you again?" she said with a smile.

"No..."

"Alright well since you still look a little confused why don't we ask him huh"

"Wait what?!" I said as I finally realized why she wanted my phone in the first place. Niall's number. Well his friends’ number. She wouldn’t! …Yes, she would.

"Oh by the way I do remember your password" she said and she winked at me unlocking my phone.

"No!" I screamed and reached for my phone but I didn't even get close. I had forgotten she had me pinned down, my hands being pushed down by her feet. "What do you eat woman?!" I yelled but she just laughed and ignored me looking for the number.

"Well then," she said with that same evil smile, "why don't we give him a little call."
