First days of school can suck my blood.
I stare broodingly ahead of me. The principal is giving speech for, approximately, one and a half hour. And he ain't stopping. I grunt and slide my body down with a frown. I feel a slight jab on my side and I look up; catching a beautiful brown girl by the name of Safiya, also known as my best friend.
I raise my eyebrows and she thrusts her chin towards the door. I smile a little, really liking her idea of ditching the speech. Soon enough, we are already outside the auditorium.
We maneuver to our respective lockers and slide out our wallets. Side by side, we go out after waving the old and kind security who just winks away and shakes his head lightly. We arrive at Starbucks shortly after.
I take Safiya's wallet and put mine on the table; she is the one who in charges with the drinks today. I order one caramel macchiato for me and peppermint frappe for Safiya.
The barista, dark haired and cute, smiles; showing me his dimples, double the cuter. He writes our name neatly before telling me to wait as he slips the slip to my hand. I smile to him and take my change.
"Hey," Safiya takes my hand to her. "Let me see the slip." I quirk an eyebrow to her antic but oblige, "What do you want to do with that slip?"
She doesn't answer me but instead she looks behind the slip, finding a neat writing and numbers.
"What is that?" I question as Safiya gasps dramatically. She thrusts her hand to me and says animatedly, "He gave you his number! Look, look! His name is Chris; he looks delicious."
I snort, "He has dimples. Both side of his cheeks."
"Are you serious?!" Safiya exclaims. "That's like a double times better!" I roll my eyes at her, "You have Tyler, Safi. Don't forget."
She sighs, putting the slip between us, "Well, you want to go?" I make a face, "Of course no. My mom will kill me if she knows about me going to a date. Although I surely know that she wants me to have boyfriends."
"She's so hypocrite. But you must go, Nat!"
"And why is that?" I ask her, standing up to fetch our drinks.
She looks at me in the eye, "I will buy you sushi."
"Deal."
notes :
Safiya is Liza Koshy and her boyfriend, Tyler, is David Dobrik; of course.
The both of them have youtube channels and they're seriously the best; although I haven't check David's youtube, but just check them out.
And for their names, if you were a buzzfeed fans, you would know right away.
Good day!
;)
