Maggie sat in her pastel yellow room with books all around her and her Macbook in the middle of everything, she sat there trying to get her algebra homework done. She tried so hard to concentrate on it but other things were on her mind, Maggie just wanted to go as friends, not as two crushes. She saw it as pretty obvious that Niall liked her, and she liked Niall too, just not in that way.
Her anxiety about the date really started to get to her, and her train of focus from her homework. Maggie leaned over to her side table and opened the small drawer, and pulled out a bottle of small, pale blue anxiety pills. Her abuela always said take one when you're nervous, and whats a better time then now? She took a pill dry and focused back on her math homework.
She heard her phone buzz on her bed comforter and sighed before she got up. Maggie was dreading on who the text was from, if it was from Niall she wouldn't be able to ignore it without feeling guilty, she had already lead him on without realizing it. She got up with wobbly legs, the medication won't kick in for the next 5 minutes, and she can't wait that long. Then Maggie saw Ben's name light up on the screen.
Benny Boy: I'm freakin' out mags
Maggie sighed as she stared down at the screen
Maggie: Whats up my dude?
It didn't take long for him to respond
Benny Boy: I'm going to come out to my parents.
