The next day started perfect!
The days after I saw Scott always were perfect!
My body is still tickling and I had butterflies in my stomach.

I was sitting in the kitchen eating a banana while checking and answering the messages I received over  night.
They weren't many and I was a little bit disappointed  that Scott didn't write.
By now I expect a message from him to brighten up my day.
Well not today.

My phone rang.
Kirstin.
I answered the phone immediately: "Kirst? Hey, what's up?"
"Heeeey, Mitchy! I hope you have nothing planned for today? Because I wanted to ask you if you want to  go shopping with me? Or we can go to the cinema? But there's a new shopping center and everyone says that it's the best!"
Shit.
I can't go.
I have no job.
No job, no money.
My mood suddenly changed and I became sad again.
"Uhm, I can't, sorry!"
"Why? You love shopping! Why not today? What happened?", she sounded worried.
"Ok, listen... I got fired!"
It was quiet.
"Uh, uhm, I-that's ... since when?", now she was shocked.
"Yesterday", I answered briefly.
"Oh god, I'm so sorry! But why didn't you tell me in first space? I'm your best friend, right?"
"Yes yes, of course you are but I met Scott again yesterday"
"And Scott is more important than me, huh?"
That's a good question actually.
She was my best friend.
He was my crush.
But I barely knew him.
And I know her for 4 years now.

"No! But I was excited and now could you please stop? I have no job and am desperate and you confront me with such stupid shit?", I couldn't believe it.
"No, I'm sorry, it's just... forget it", she whispered.
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I am. I hope we'll meet soon anyway!"
"Me too!" And she was gone.

Something wasn't right.
She definitely kept something from me.
But she would tell me anything. That was obvious.
I tried to forget our phone call and instead chatted with some other friends.
After a few minutes I got a Tinder notification.
Scott.
I didn't know you could click that fast on something.
Unfortunately it loaded forever but I stayed patient.
Finally.

  Scott: hey, beautiful. You didn't write yesterday? I'm sorry if I'm being intrusive but I want to know if I did something wrong.

Oh god, of course! He told me I to text him that evening!
Stupid me. Why am I so oblivious?

  Me: omg, I'm so sorry! I completely forgot! Everything is okay, I really enjoyed yesterday and I'm feeling way better now. Thx ^^

  Scott: Glad to hear that!

Is it my turn to ask him for another meeting? Yeah probably.

  Me: So, do you want to see me again? ;)

  Scott: Yeah, sure! I'm happy you asked otherwise I would have felt stupid when I asked again. x

  Me: No! You never have to feel like that, it's totally okay! ^^ When do you have time?

  Scott: uhm idk exactly! In the next time there's a lot to do for me but maybe you want to go to the Club with me in the evening?

Partying? That's definitely not my thing.
I actually HATE it!

  Me: yeah sure! Great idea! When?

  Scott: maybe 27th?

  Me: yes I'm in and excited! See u!

  Scott: c u, beautiful!

I blushed.
He called me beautiful. Again.
And it's so soon!
I could actually already choose the clothes for that day.
No sooner than said a few minutes later I stood in front of my clothes and looked at them clueless.
There's nothing I could wear to impress Scott.
I rummaged all of the tops and trousers but still couldn't find anything.
I assume I had to go shopping.
Tomorrow probably.
