Just Friends

Chapter 6 You want my number or?

Michael P.O.V

I hate field trips mainly cause I always get lost, but hey I'm lost with my best friend. " You have no sense of direction. Luke says. I shrug as I look up at the big T- Rex skeleton and figure our class must be close by. "Who gets lost in a museum even?" Luke asks. " Your looking at him." I shrug. I hope Calum is having a better day today, yesterday was not a good day and I felt bad for him. "Should I ask for directions?" "No Loser let's go this way." I say and go down a hall that leads us to the taxidermied animals ( This was my favorite exhibit until I found out that the animals were taxidermied and not giant stuffed animals, scarred for life) Luke follows behind looking down at his map . " Our class should be by the Egypt exhibit . " Okay you know we should just get food. " " Michael." Luke says sounding annoyed. " Come on we can grab a bite to eat and then go find them no big deal, or we can leave all together and go to FAO Schwartz cause I love that store. We can play the big piano like they do in the movie Big." "That sounds fun.." Luke says and I know he's in by the glint in his eyes. I pull my backpack closer to me and go out the doors and we get on yet another subway train ( Going the right way I may add) and go to the toy store.

"Upstairs first?" Luke nods and goes up the escalator and marvels at the legos "Take a picture of me on the piano." I say and go step on the keys. " You sending this to Cal Pal?" Luke says saying Calum's username. " Yeah." I say and step on random keys. I skip up and down them and walk down them sideways and make a lot of noise but have fun doing it. "Your such a dork." He says shaking his head as he hands me my phone. I shrug as Luke gets on the piano and steps to the right and then let. Soon it's both of us trying to make a song as we waltz back and forth making the other laugh. "Do they have nerf guns?" Luke asks. "I don't know you want to go to times square?" I ask. "Let's go to the apple store." Luke says. "Okay." I follow him through the store and then to the Apple store.

That night

"MICHAEL GORDON CLIFFORD!" My mom opens my door as I spin around on my desk chair and see my mom looking really mad as I scramble to turn off my music. " Did you go to school today?" " Uh huh." " So why did you not return back after your trip?" " Well you see Luke and I got separated from the group and we got lunch and we tried to find them but we couldn't." I say. " So the two of you ditched?" She asks. I say nothing as she goes back down the hall. I wince and tell Calum about my mom knowing that I ditched

Cal_Pal: That sucks but sounds like she did not yell at you too much

Me: Yeah but she used my whole name

Cal_Pal: That's never good

Me: Yeah how is your tooth?

Cal_Pal: Better my mom was concerned but Mali and I got ice cream after I was so hyped up on sugar last night haha.

Me: Who's Mali?

Cal_ Pal: My older sister who when she found out I knocked out my tooth was pretty annoyed.

Me: Oh   well at least you did not get in trouble for it.

Cal_ Pal: They were pretty chill about it so it's fine, hey can I get your number? It's hard to keep up with my twitter notifications ha.

Me: That's good and of course. I send Calum my number and find a text from him and smile as I save his number. I need a contact picture for you. I text I see the little dots as he sends a selfie. It's recent so there you go. I smile and set the picture. We text until it's about three in the morning. Gosh I want to meet him someday that would be amazing.
