     Well, another lonely night binge watching Netflix in my empty house.

     Hey, I wasn't completely lying. I was hungry and I was planning on catching up on Grey's Anatomy...but just not at this moment.
     I grabbed my bag and keys and headed straight for the door. Nothing like a kind of chilly New York night to get my mind off of everything...mostly Ashton. He was so cute... I'm 99% sure he caught me staring at him. We are supposed to meet at my house tomorrow to work on our AP Composition assignment. His hair was so curly and his eyes lit up every time our history teacher talked about Australia, since Mr. Jensen demanded we dive straight into Self-Rule for The British Colonies. I found out at lunch that Ashton was from Hornsby, Australia but moved here from Sydney. Now I know what accent he has!

Ash: AYYE Can we FaceTime I'm bored and you're the only friend I have here...
Me: Sorry, can't rn :( I'm driving
Ash: Where are you driving to?
Me: Waffle House?
Ash: The one on 4th Avenue?
Me: Yeah
Ash: Okay, I'll meet you there ;)
Me: Are you sure your moms okay with it?
Ash: She's out for the night :)
Me: Okay, see you soon

20 Minutes later

     Ash was walking straight towards me and my heart was pounding. He looked so hot in his skinny jeans and black Guns N Roses shirt.

"Hey you!"

"Hey!"

"So I've never been here before,"

"How'd you know exactly where it was then?"

"I live right down the road..." He stated laughing shortly after

"Oh, that's cool."

"So what should I get?"

"I usually get the hash browns, smoothered, covered, and chunked. With some grits."

"I guess I'll get that then?"

"Well, get whatever you like, all of the food is great!" I responded not wanting to be held accountable if the hash browns and grits aren't his type.

"I'll get that," he chuckled "I like everything."

"Sammmmeee"
