As my alarm bleared encouraging me to get out of bed and get ready for school, I sighed with disappointment that my dream was over.
I moved to the edge of my white, wooden, double bed and began getting dressed into the clothes I had laid out the night before. I don't usually care what I look like but today I felt like making an effort. I chose a pair of black skinny jeans with rips in them going all the way up my thighs and down my calfs, a black and white flannel shirt which I made sure was ironed to perfection to look crisp. I also decided to ditch the glasses and wear contacts today.
I got ready surprisingly quickly and I had enough time to sit and eat breakfast. I went downstairs and into the kitchen to pour myself out some cereal. Once I had my bowl of froot loops in front of me, I sat on the couch and began to check my social media. I wasn't that popular at all in school and I didn't have a big following on any type of media so this resulted in me becoming increasingly bored. I closed Instagram and noticed a notification on my Twitter profile... This was odd...
Scott Hoying started following you
SCOTT?!? WHAT?!?
I couldn't believe it... SCOTT FOLLOWED ME
Okay I had to stay calm and act cool. I casually followed him back and locked my phone as quick as possible to avoid the temptation of stalking his profile. As quick as I locked my phone, it beeped again with another Twitter notification.
Scott Hoying sent you a direct message
My whole body had tingles shooting through it. I was so nervous to open it. What if he followed me on purpose and he was telling me to unfollow him asap...
Oh no.
I just won't open it. That avoids the situation completely. Don't open it. Don't open it. Don't open it. Don't op- my finger swiped open my phone almost automatically. I didn't want to read they message...
Scott:Hey! I heard that your parents are out of town for a few days again :( that's a bummer... Do you need a ride to school? I can pick you up in 10?
Ohhhhhhhhh myyyyyyyyyy gooooooooddddd
Okay, I needed to stay calm. Okay. Be cool.

Scotts PoV
That was casual right? Just a friendly offer for a ride to school. I mean, I'd ask anyone.

Why isn't he replying?

Was it too much?

I've ruined if already

My phone lit up with a notification. He replied. Thank god.

Mitch: Hi! Yeah they're out of town until later tomorrow night. That's such a kind thing to offer,I'd appreciate it:). Do you know my address?

Of course I knew his address. Lord I know where everyone in the school lives.

Scott: Aww, it's a shame you're going to be alone :(... Yeah of course I do, I'll be there very soon so be ready :). P.s I know we never talk but I didn't want you to have to walk to school today, it's still dark this time in the morning and I was worried.

I don't think I have ever got in my car so quickly before. I started the engine and basically raced to his house. This is going to be interesting...
