school was finally out and I waited by the gym. I twirled my pinky ring around while I looked around for remi. she walked over to me, and my heartbeat instantly started pounding so hard it was painful.

"hey blondie," she grinned and nodded to me.

"hey," I nodded back.

"okay, so," she started. "it's national ice cream day so I guess that means that we have to go get ice cream." she sighed like she didn't want to, but smiled which showed she was only being sarcastic.

"okay," I grinned and started walking the direction towards my house. "we have to go get my car though. it'll only take few minutes to get there. but it's okay if you don't want to hang out anymore.." I started thinking hard about how she could possibly think it was a drag to go grab my car, or how she thought it was too much time to spend with me.

why would pretty girl like her want to be seen with me anyways?

"why wouldn't I want to hang out with you anymore? now I jut get an excuse to spend some more time with you." she grinned, and I swear her cheeks turned as pink as her lips. I smiled wide and looked at my feet as we walked.

when we got to my house I walked in and dropped my skateboard and bags off by the front door. I sighed when I realized mum would just yell at me for being lazy and not taking my bag and guitar upstairs.

"wanna drop your bags off in my room? and when we get back I can teach you a few chords or something'." I cocked a brow.

she nodded and I started up the stairs, her following. we walked into my room which was a dive from me staying up the night before. there was constellation maps lying everywhere and torn out notes from my journal, along with guitar picks and crumbled up papers with my song lyrics on them.

"fuck," I grumbled and kicked papers around. "sorry, I was up all night." I ran my hand through my hair and shook my head.

"is that your telescope?' she tilted her head and walked over to my window.

"uh, yeah. " I bit my lip ring from inside my mouth.

she looked back at me and grinned. she set down her bags and looked out the window. "i wanna look at the stars with you." she spun around and smiled so that the dimple on her chin popped out. I melted at the sight of her.

"saturday night." is all I said with a heavy stare on her own green eyes. she nodded in return and repeated what I said.

"okay!" she clapped her hands together. "ice cream!" she walked past me, grabbing my forearm and pulling me to get some sweets with a sweetheart.
