"No way dude, I'm not gonna do it. This is all on you." I sighed into my phone as Josh was frantically talking about the Aliens in Space. He went on about how there's something important about this and the Government doesn't want to say. His big idea is to expose the rumor with no evidence. "I'm not going to get in trouble doing this. And plus, all this you've said on the phone." I said with a stern tone that made him hang up instantly. "What the hell?" I shook my head and laid down on my bed, grabbing my guitar and starting to tune it.

After 20 minutes of playing random chords, I heard a knock at my door and jumped up quickly. "Who is it?"

"Sweetie it's Josh, he's downstairs waiting for you." My mother spoke through the door.

"Tell him to come on up." I chuckled and I sat in my computer chair and waited still playing with my guitar. "3. 2. 1." On one the door swung open and Josh barged in. "Hello little mouse."

"Dude what the hell?" He closed the door and threw his hands up.

"What?" I played slowly when I looked up at him.

"What do you mean what?" His face was filled with confusion. I've never seen him this confused.

"I mean, what. Explain to me what you're talking about." I shrugged.

"The phone call, you hung up on me. So quickly too, I thought something was wrong so I rushed over here as fast as I could." This made me stop playing completely now, he had my full attention.

"Okay, what? You hung up on me. I just thought you were mad or something so I didn't call back or anything. But I didn't hang up on you." I furrowed my brows a bit.

"Did your phone die then?" He ran his hand through his hair.

"I don't think so." I pulled my phone out my pocket and hit the lock button making the screen illuminate. "Nope still on." I shrugged.

"What the hell?" He sighed and flopped on to my bed.

"Try calling now." I chuckled a bit as I set my phone down on my desk as I practiced a song on my guitar.

"Okay one sec." He pulled his phone out and looked up at me slowly. "Who's that song for?"

I stopped abruptly instantly looking at him. "What do you mean? What song?"

"The one you're playing, it's a love song, I listen to music too you know." He chuckled a bit soon standing up and heading over to my dresser and sitting on it. "So come on, tell a bro who's the Apple in your eye. Somebody I know?"

"I'm not sure. You know a lot of people but at the same time, you don't know a lot of people either." I grinned.

"I could make this guess cliché but I won't." He eyed me carefully. "The girl in your gym class." He grinned this time as I facepalmed.

"Be specific."

"Aha, so she is in your gym class!" This time I just laughed, no response, just a laugh. "You're being difficult."

"Thing is, I don't even know her name, and I just met her today."

"You don't know her name, nor have you ever even talked to her until today." He glared a bit which actually made me chuckle nervously a bit. "What's she look like, or do you not know that either." He still had his glare.
