I was at home watching Netflix on my phone when the house phone rang. I got up to check who it was and noticed it was an unknown number, not really giving it a second thought i pressed the answer button.
"Hello, who is this?"
"Is this the girl from the coffee shop earlier?'
"Yes- um could you tell me who i'm speaking to?"
"My name is Ashton the guy who spilled his coffee on you, i'm calling to see why you haven't contacted me on behalf of what happened today."
"Maybe because i just got home and i would like to relax after a long day at school-- never mind that how did you even get my number?!"
"Are you some kind of stalker?"
"It hasn't even been more than an hour since i last saw you"
"Well to answer your question, first your friend gave me your number, second no i'm not a stalker i just know how to get information- quite frankly it would be an insult to call me one seeing as how i didn't have to follow you to get this information and besides it's just a phone number not your social security number, honestly speaking that wouldn't be hard to get i just have to pull a few strings.....back to what i was saying it has actually been approximately been one hour and thirty minutes. Any more unnecessary questions?"
I didn't even know where to start analyzing everything he just said so instead i just stood there with the phone in my hands and my mouth agape in shock.
For five minutes neither of us said anything even though i heard some shuffling on the other line.
"So.....i don't even know how to respond to everything you just said so i'm just going to pretend i didn't hear any of that and hang up."
"wai-"
Before he could finish saying what he was about to say i hung up; ''well that was a great conversation'' i thought to myself.

A couple days has passed since the strange call with Ashton and i haven't seen him either, i was just about to walk into my first class for the day when i hear my name and turn again once again as fate would have it i crash into someone.
"Well speak of the devil"
"Excuse me?"
"Nothing, we really have to stop meeting like this it isn't exactly the best way to-"
I was cut short by Crystal engulfing me in a big hug almost knocking me off my feet and me trying to regain my balance all while trying to not look like a fish out of water in front of him. Instead he stood there with an amused grin on his face while watching our interaction.
"You just left and i was trying to catch up to you, damn you and your freakishly long legs!"
she said in complete ignorance of Ashton who was a few feet away from where we were standing,
"Hey.....umm...crys this isn't the best time,''
"So like i was saying before you rudely interrupted me, you and your freakish long legs need to slow down not all of us act like models walking a never ending runway and--"
She wouldn't stop talking so i turned her around and she came face to face to a still smirking Ashton.
"Hi, my name is Crystal," she said just before the bell rang.
"And that was the bell."
