Ally's Pov
I wake up. My clock flashing 8:20 right in front of my face. I get up and go to the toilet. I wash my hands and climb back into bed, hoping that I will fall back asleep, but sleep doesn't come to me. I climb out of bed and put my slippers on and head downstairs. I look at the kitchen bench and I see a note there. It reads: Hi sweetie, I'm at work. Sorry they called in saying that Sophie was sick so I'm taking her shift. I'll be back at 5:00. There's blueberry pancakes in the fridge for breakfast if you're hungry. Call me if you need anything.I love you. Love mum xxI look in the fridge and see the plate of blueberry pancakes. You're a legend Mum, I thought as I grabbed the plate filled with blueberry pancakes.
I grab four and put them on an extra plate. I put them in the microwave and heat them up. While they are in the microwave, I get the ice-cream from the freezer and the maple syrup from the fridge. The microwave beeps and I open the microwave door and reach out to take the plate out. I get a knife and fork from the drawer, then I sit down at the table. I dig in (don't judge, I like eating food). Even though I eat a lot of food, I still make sure to go on runs. I finish my food and get up from my chair and walk to the sink and rinse my plate under hot water before placing it into the dishwasher. I hear my phone bleep so I check it. The ID is unknown but I open the message anyway.
Unknown: Hey, is this Ally?
Ally: Ah, who wants to know?
Unknown: Me
Ally: Who is this?
Unknown: Aiden Smith
Ally: Oh hey. How'd you get my number?
Aiden: From a girl called Beca. Do you know her?
I cursed loudly.
Ally: Yeah, she just happens to be my best friend
Aiden: Oh that makes sense now,
Ally: Yeah haha,
Aiden: So I was wondering if you wanted to come and see a movie with me tomorrow?
I have to re-read the message to make sure I'm not seeing things, before typing a quick reply.
Ally: Sure! What movie did you have in mind?
Aiden: I was thinking Lala Land, only if you wanted to watch that, if not that's okay, you can pick something, I don't mind.
I laugh at his rambling.
Ally: No no that sounds great! I love to see that with you, what time?
Aiden: Okay sounds good. It starts at 10:40 am, but if that's too early for you, I can change it to a later session, I don't mind,
Ally: No, it's okay, that time sounds great! I guess I'll see you tomorrow
Aiden: Okay cool. Yeah tomorrow. Hey ah thanks for agreeing to come..
Ally: Yeah of course! Why wouldn't I?
Aiden: I don't know :)
Ally: Haha, you are adorable you know?
Aiden: Thank you, but of course not as adorable as you x.
I stare at his message and blink a couple of times, unsure of what to say.
Ally: Aww. Why do you think I'm adorable? You don't even look or speak to me at school...
Aiden: That's what you think... I look at you every day from a distance. I don't come up and speak to you because I'm too nervous to talk to you because you are too beautiful for anyone's good...
I am shocked at this. Aiden Smith, the guy every girl wants to date and every guy wants to be, just called me beautiful.
Ally: Aww. Aiden, you should never be nervous to talk to me. What would you be nervous about? Thank you for calling my beautiful, but it's not true x.
Aiden: I just am, I dunno, everything about you makes me nervous. What on earth are you talking about? Of course you're beautiful! What makes you think you're not? xx
Ally: Well, don't be nervous, come talk to me one day. Let me ask you a question. Why do you wanna take me out to see a movie with you? I mean you could ask Helen, or Amy, they are both way more popular than me and of course way prettier than I could ever be.
Aiden: Yeah maybe I will. I should just man up and do it. The reason I asked you is because I have liked you since you moved to our school. You picked up everything so easily and you are so smart and you're just beautiful to look at. And I mean, your comebacks against Helen and Amy are fabulous. You seem, I don't want to sound cringy or something, but through my eyes... you're perfect.
It doesn't make sense Aiden Smith calling me perfect. Of all people, I assumed he would never want to speak to me and yet here we are having a conversation on text. I am stunned at how sweet he sounds.
Ally: Aiden, you should've never hidden your feelings from me. The more you keep them locked up inside the more it eats you from the inside out.
Aiden: Yeah I should've I'm sorry but I didn't have the guts to tell you that I like you.
Ally: Well I have something to say to you too..
Aiden: Yeah what is it?
Ally: I...
