CHAPTER 7
Texting
"Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together." ~Marilyn Monroe
I decided to wait a while before I texted Zach. I didn't want to seem desperate. I decided to call Danielle and Sapna and let them know how my night went. They picked up on the third ring.
"Hey, Katie. How did it go?" Danielle asked.
"It was... better than I expected. We just talked at dinner. Nothing special. Zach drove me home."
"Zach drove you home?!" Danielle squealed.
"Katie, that's awesome! Do you know how many girls would DIE to be you?!" Sapna said.
"Yeah, I know. He gave me his number, too."
"Then what are you doing on the phone with us?! Go text him!" Danielle said. "Zatie. I ship it!"
"We're not even dating. All he did was give me his number and suddenly we're in a relationship?" I said.
"Well, you have to admit, it would be cute."
"I hardly even know him!" I said.
"Then GET to know him!" Danielle said. "Just text him and see what happens. Talk to you soon, okay? I love you, good luck."
"Love you, too, Dani, bye guys." I said and hung up.
I texted Zach, "Hey, it's Katie." Simple. If he wanted to be flirty, fine, but no matter what Dani and Sapna said, I wasn't starting anything.
About a minute later, he replied. "Oh, hey! What's up?" And then we talked for a long time, so I'll just put the conversation here.
Me: Nothing much, I just got off the phone with Dani. Hbu?
Zach: Reading a little. Who's Dani?
Me: My best friend.
Zach: Oh, cool.
Me: Yeah. I think I'm gonna go read TFIOS.
Zach: Okay, I'll let you go then. See you Monday:)
Me: Yeah, see you Monday.
Nothing eventful. I felt like I was being too awkward, but, I mean that's just me. I was never good with guys. The only boyfriend I've ever had was really weird, like me. And then, even though I thought he was nicest guy in the world, he broke up with me for another girl. I was really depressed after that, I mean you can't blame me for being shy around guys. But Zach felt... different. I mean, yeah, he had always been my favorite, so I already had a soft spot for him, but he was really... cute. I don't know.
I decided to just go to bed. I was really confused and had mixed emotions. I jumped into bed and closed my eyes, ready for a new day.
That was the first night I dreamt about Zach Beeken.
