Focus (Asa Butterfield)

4

I jumped in my bed and lay there.

So. Glad. To. Be. Home.

I got up and opened the blinds of my balcony for the first time. Might as well try natural heat and light.

I stripped off of my clothes and put on shorts and a tank top. I turned to look outside and notice someone was watching me. He quickly closed his blinds, but not quick enough. The face looked familiar.

It was Asa.

Oh my god! Has he really been watching me change the whole time?

Well at least he was right about living in my apartment complex. How have I not noticed him before?

I wanted to go over there but there were two problems with that:

1. I don't know what apartment number he lives in

2. I'm lazy.

I lay in my bed and go on my phone. I carelessly scrolled through my instagram and tapped through all of the snapchat stories I had. I rolled my eyes. Some people really shouldn't have social media accounts. 

I get up to go make myself lunch when I get a message on my phone. It was Jake, my ex boyfriend. My stomach dropped.

Jackson: hey, long time no talk, how have u been?

 I met Jake about a year ago at a friend's party and we started talking that same night.

At first, like all cases, Jake seemed like such a cool, genuine person and there was no way I could find someone better than him, and it took me a year to find out it wasn't true. 

Me: Hey, the same 

Jake: I miss u ;(

I rolled my eyes.

Me: stop texting me.

Jake: so when should we meet up again?

Me: Oh yeah, so you can go back to ruining my life again? Yes, I'm definitely looking forward to it!

I threw my phone on my bed and went out in my balcony. I kept wondering which apartment Asa lived in.
