One Moment

~ Chapter 5 ~

When the show stopped at around 9:30pm I slowly started to get ready for bed. Finally ready, I slipped into my warm covers, resting my head on my pillow. Picking my phone up from my bedside table I saw I had 3 new messages. 1 was from Katherine asking about the weekend. 1 was an earlier one from Pete that I have already seen and the other was from unknown number. Clicking on the message, I saw this:

Hey Jamie, it’s Keith. Was wondering if u were doing anything on the weekend? Was thinking about going bowling, but I haven’t really made any friends (apart from u) @ school, so if u want 2 come just text back. Goodnight, Keith

I clicked on reply and I quickly typed back a response.

Hi Keith. How did u get my number!!! I would luv 2 come bowling with u. sat or sun and what time? Was making plans with Katherine so can she come as well? It’s okay if u don’t want her. Have a good sleep, Jamie

Placing my phone back on the table, I picked up my book “The Fault in Our Stars” by John Green and continued reading from where I had last left of. Merely minutes later I got a reply from Keith.

Katherine can come, don’t mind @ all! Does sat 2pm sound good to u? Keith

And that’s how the rest of my night went. Texting Keith. And I liked it like that. I know what you’re thinking. He’s falling in love with me. I’m falling in love with him. No. We’re just friends. Nothing more. Saying my final goodnight to Keith, I place my phone back on my bedside table for the last time and turn my lamp off. Resting my head back on my pillow, I cuddled into my quilt. Seconds later, I was fast asleep, dreaming about Keith and next Saturday.

BEEP! BEEP! Slamming my hand down on the snooze button, I rolled over again and buried my head in my pillow. Seconds later the alarm went off again. Getting up out of bed, I look at my phone. 1 unread message.

Night Jamie. Sleep tight x

I suddenly felt all warm and fuzzy inside, remembering the conversation we had last night. Jamie I scolded myself. He probably has a girlfriend. Yep that’s it. He definitely has a girlfriend … He’s so hot. Jamie!!! I’ve heard somewhere that the first sign of madness is talking to yourself. I’m unquestionably turning crazy. All over one boy.
