Why Me? - Zach Clayton Fanfic

Wait.. Moving?

Arely's POV

"Where are we going? Cuz im hungryyyy" I ask as we get into the car.   "IHOP or Denny's?" My mom asks me while starting the car.  "IHOP!!!!" I say really loudly that we both start laughing. We pull out of the drive way and i turn on the radio, i decide to put on 95.7FM. 95.7 The Party is like my favorite radio station,it plays all my favorite songs. They were talking and finally they start the music, Me,Myself,I By  G-Eazy comes on and I just start doing my car choreograph to the song. My mom looks at me and my mom and I just bursts out laughing.We finally reach IHOP and we get out of the car and walk in. "Table for 2?" asks the lady at the front.  "yes please" my mom says.  we finally get seated and i already know what I want. Usually my mom and I always get the same thing every time we come to IHOP. "What can I get you two ladys to drink today?" said a guy who didn't look much older than me maybe 16-17. He was pretty hot and only 1-2 year difference wasn't that much.  " Can I have coffee please" my mom says.  "Can I-I have a-um Slashberry please" I say and give him a smile. That was so embarrassing, I sounded like a idiot.  "Sure ill be right back with those drinks" he says and smiles. Holly shit his smile tho, he had a great smile, i need to come to IHOP on Saturdays more often. "So Arely the other thing about.. my job.. they are transferring me to another company building." she says giving me a weak smile.  "Oh ok cool how far from school? what about my friends?" I ask sort of half thinking about what we are talking about but also still thinking about the cute waiter.  "about 898 miles" my mom says with a worried face like she was just waiting for me to react  "Oh ok....Wait what?!" I say finally snapping into the conversation and realizing she just said more than 100 miles away!   " Well about 13 hours away" she says reaching out to hold my hand    "Wait, We're actually Moving.. Moving like to a different state?" I ask just trying to get this into my head   "Yes sweety we are.. we are moving to Round Rock, Texas" she says trying to calm me down and help me get through the thought of moving.   " So Im just moving mid year of school?" I ask worried about going to a new school mid year. Usually at the mid year mark, everyone has there group of friends and lunch table so im just worried it would be harder to fit in.  " Yes sorry sweaty but we have to I have to be at the new building as soon as possible" she says with a smile, which made me feel a little better.      "Here you go ladies, so are you ladies ready to order?" they hot waiter asks     " Yes we are can I have the Garden Veggi Omelet please" my mom says      " Um.. Can I have the Bacon Temptation Omelet.. with a side of the Cinnastack please" I say ordering but on the verge of crying.   "Sure thing, Ill bring that right out" He says looking at me with a worried face, see i was about to cry.   "Excuse me ill be right back" I say hurrying  to the bathroom to cry, Why did we have to move? Mid-year? Lose all my friends? Suddenly I feel someone grab my wrist and turn me around, It was HIM.. the waiter! why would he come running after me? He doesn't even know me?   "Hey, are you ok?" he askes    "Ya im fine" I say trying to hide me crying but then one little tear falls down my check.   "Ok now I definitely know your not "ok" " he says wiping the tear falling down my check with the back of his thumb  " Do you want to talk about it?" he asks with a caring smile   "ok I guess" I say looking down a little embarrassed  "Come with me" he says and grabs my hand. Ok this was a little scary, A random hot guy decides to run after me when I was crying, and now is taking me, who knows where in the back of a IHOP, to talk about my problems.  We finally reach a office, I look in and see a whole bunch of chair and comfy things.  "Dang I never knew that there was this room in a IHOP!" i say im assessment. He laughs and says "I know right we made this room for when we have our brake and have to do the next shift, We just come in and hang out" he says, smiling. I smile back and sit down on a comfy HUGE beanbag and get a text   MOMMY - Hey sweaty, you ok? text me ASAP please.  I look and text back  ME - Im fine mom ill text you in a bit, just eat.. I found a friend and he/she is letting me talk to them for a bit. Eat well ttyl bye.     "Ok do you want to talk now?" he asks   "Ya sure, bu first I never got your name Mystery guy" I say smiling    "Lets just leave it as Mystery Guy for now" He says and winks. Oh god he just winked i just died inside! "Ok then.. Well what happened was my mom got a promotion at her work, I was really happy and stuff but what she didnt tell me is that we had to move for her promotion" I say running my hands through my hair. I always do that when im nervous.  "Ok thats not that bad, Where you moving.. um.. I never got your name" he says and laughs    "Im Mystery girl then" i say and we both laugh  " Ok where are you moving Mystery girl?"     "Round Rock, Texas " I say feeling that lump in my trough again   "Damnnnn Mystery Girl, back at it again with the crying" he says then laughs a little and I smile too.  "Well that a little bad but you can at least stop crying and hang out with your friends for as long as you have here still" he says smiling   " Ya i guess you right, ya i think that would be good" I say rubbing my eyes   "See now, do u feel better?" he askes rubbing circles in my back. That sent shivers down my spine, but it mad me feel better too.  "Ya, Thanks Mystery Guy" I say and look back at him.  "Ya no problem Mystery Girl" he says and smiles, still leaving his hand on my lower back     " I think i should text my mom saying that im going back now." I say and pull out my phone     To;Mommy      Hey mom im on my way back be there in a sec      "Thanks again Mystery Guy" I say again and look down because I felt like i just blushed    "No problem anytime Mystery Girl" he says and rubs the back oh his neck    " Ok well im going to go back to my mom now" I say and walk to the door. I was about to open it and I feel a tap on my shoulder. I turn around and i see Mystery Guy   "ya?" I ask wondering why he tapped me  "I was wondering if i could have your number?" Ya sure, here" i say and he hands me him phone. I put my phone number in and give it back to him  "Thanks" he says and blushes  "Hey wait!! you forgot to put your name in" he calls out. I look back and smile, then walk away. I turn my head and out of the corner of my eye I see him standing there smiling. Today was a bit weird but I liked it . Im going to miss it here
