Never in a million years did I think I would look forward to Mondays. Yet thats what this boy, Jacob had done to me. I'd sit on the bus every Monday, in the same spot, and wait for his pretty face. The few moments sitting next to him made me happy.

That Monday, a girl, who I knew by the name Clara, suddenly sat beside me, without even asking. I frowned at her.

"I'm sorry, someone's sitting there." I apologised, and she moved away without hesitation. I smiled thankfully at her.

When Jacob came on the bus finally, he smiled when he saw me, and placed himself beside myself. A part of me wandered if I were meant to treat him differently since we were 'friends' on Facebook.

Did that change anything?

"What are you listening to?" He randomly asked halfway through the ride.

"Fall Out Boy." I replied.

"Ohh they're a great band." He nodded in approval, which made me smile slightly.
