"Hello?"

"Hey, it's Mimik."

"Oh, hey."

"So...you wanted to see my skateboard, but you never video chatted me and texting too weird so calling is the next best thing."

"Hmm. I suppose so." Your voice doesn't sound the way I though it would. It's deeper, richer. Grittier. I can almost feel your vocal chords shaking in your throats and I love it. I love you.

"Your voice doesn't sound the way I thought it would."

"Yeah? How so?"

"Its deeper than I thought it would be. I can tell you're from California, though."

"How? Can you read my mind? Are you in my house? How do you do theses things?" Joking obviously.

He laughs. Oh, I love his laugh. I just want his face to match his voice. I want every bit of him to be as beautiful as his personality and his voice.

"It's just the way you pronounce your words. I learned that so people couldn't tell I wasn't born in America."

"Well, where were you born then?"

"Australia. I know apparently it's the super cool, amazing thing, but people made fun of me so I moved schools and changed my accent."

"That sucks. I can kind of relate."

"Yeah how?" I shift my phone a little. Making his voice more clear.

"People at my old school knew I was gay. They teased me for it so I changed schools and 'changed' my sexuality. I basically tried to be straight."

"Shit. That's a kick in the ass."

"Isn't it?" My mom calls me downstairs. I don't want to hang up, but my mom doesn't know about him. My mom doesn't know a lot of things. I have to hang up. "Mimik. I'm sorry I gotta go my mom needs something. I'll chat you later?"

"Yeah. That's cool."
