I shakily held my finger over the button saying 'submit'. I didn't want to do this. I didn't want to go on this stupid app and make stupid friends. Let alone a teen dating app.
"Why are you making me do this Ally?" I asked sighing when the app took me to my profile, after I pressed the submit button, telling me to add photos.
"Because, you need a life. Your life is pretty tragic at this moment in time. For goodness sakes, your sixteen and you've never had a boyfriend. Let alone a fling..." She trailed off.
I clicked on the symbol resembling a camera, and a message popped up, 'allow Teen Love Life to access your Camera Roll'.
"What do I press Ally?" I asked starting to panic. What if I pressed yes and some creep hacked the app and could see all my photos. I do NOT want that to happen.
"Just press allow." She said rolling her eyes at my panicked state. For her this was a stroll in the park. Her having an abundance of internet friends, from all over the world.
I pressed the button and it showed my camera roll. I looked at all my photos and didn't know which one to pick. I decided on one where I was at a Christmas party and had on a fancy dress. It was from last year, my hair was considerably shorter, and it was brown.
Ally took my phone from my hand and looked at what I set for my profile picture. Shook her head and proceeded to pick one. She handed it back to me and I cringed at the one she picked. Me with my now long bleached hair, with my black beanie, and my black skater dress being weird.
"Why would you pick this one?!" I asked all panicked. I didn't want people thinking I'm weird and a whore. My dress was pretty short. It was stopping just above the knee. The bust was pretty tight around my considerable sized breasts. And I was wearing sheer black tights with polka-dots, and heels. "I look like a whore." I stated.
"No. You look like a fun girl to be around, like you are. You look really pretty. And not like the total prude you are. No offense." She said taking back my phone to check my name and type in a bio.
She handed it back to me and I cringed at the bio.
Music obsessed, boy band messed!
"Why would you pick that?" I asked. Hating the fact that she put boy band messed, because for one, GREEN DAY WAS NOT A BOYBAND!
"Because you like bands. And music, and girl, you should post that photo I took of you last week in music. You look hot, and you're playing Matts awesome tel!" She said.
I rolled my eyes and pulled up my camera rolls again. I found the photo and decided on adding a fade filter. I was wearing black ripped jeans, a black and white graphic tee, and a red plaid shirt around my waist. The guitar was an orange telecaster with a black pick board. It was beautiful. And I'm saving up for one. But this pretty pink one i saw.
"This is good enough for now. But later we need to add more photos." Ally said. "I've gotta go home now babe. But I'll text you okay?" She said picking her purse off the floor and grabbing her hoodie from the back of my desk chair.
"Okie, bye Bae!" I said waving her off.
My phone dinged and a notification came on the front saying I had a notification from TLL. Okay, so if I don't answer any of these messages would Ally know? I don't think so, and I don't think that these guys would really want to talk to me. My phone dinged again. And a message from Ally popped up.
From; Ally boo
Girl I heard that ding. You better answer it! I will be checking tomorrow.
Text sent at 7:59 pm
Seriously? She had to of heard it.
I rolled my eyes and reluctantly opened the app and pressed on the symbol at the bottom of the screen. And opened a message from a guy with the username: beyodaddy25
From beyodaddy25
Hey girl how ya doing. You look like a nice 💥 how about you message me back and we can make plans.
Sent at 8:00 pm
And with that message I threw my phone across the room. Thank goodness for screen protectors and OtterBox cases. I ran over to my phone and picked it up. And called Ally.
"Ally what the fudge balls?! Why would you make me download this app?! I don't want to do this.!" I screamed into the phone. Luckily my mom wasn't home.
"Calm down! What happened babe?"
"Some guy messaged me wanting to have sex! I don't want that! I don't even want a boyfriend at this point." I started shaking and tears leaked out of my eyes.
"You're okay Mer. And you'll be okay. Sometimes things like this happen. You just need to block and report this douche." She said calmly into the phone. "Now put me on speaker and do as I say okay?"
"Okay." I said. She followed by telling me to open the app, which I did with shaky hands and my heart beating off the charts. She then told me to open up the messages. I did. She told me to swipe towards the left on the message and press the button that looks like a stop sign with what looks like an i in the middle. I did, and I followed her instructions to block and report him.
"See it wasn't so bad. Now this creep won't message you again? And can't too. Isn't that great?!" She said with mock excitement.
"I guess." I said looking down at my phone.
"Meredith! I'm home and I brought dinner!" I heard my mom yell from downstairs.
"I gotta go Ally. I'll text you after. And call you prolly because we both know if another thing like this happens I'll be calling your ass." I said chuckling.
"Deal, now go eat some food, because knowing you, you haven't ate since lunch at 12," she said before ending the call. Because we both know if she didn't I'd continue talking.
"Bye to you too!" I said sassily. And finally I headed downstairs for dinner.
