I take off my shoes once I'm inside, say hi to mom, and head upstairs.
I sigh and lay down on my bed. I grab my phone and text my best friend, Kate.
Me - YO KATE YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED TODAY
Kate - what happened?
Me - I met a stinkin' hot boyyyy
Kate - OMG BROOK IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU!
Me - I KNOW I KNOW HES TAKING ME OUT TO DINNER TONIGHT WITH HIM AND HIS FRIENDS
Kate - Who's paying?!?!
Me - Obviously, him.
Kenz - Hold up. What's this "boy's" name??
Me - Danielllllll
Kate - OOOOOOOOOOH DANIELLLLLL
Kate - Like damnnnnnn danielllllllllll
Me - *dies in another world*
Kate - Tf
Me - This is why I love you. Gotta question tho.
Kate - Sure.
Me - What kinda clothes should I go for?
Kate - Casual but pretty. But not too pretty. Where you eating?
Me - Rock's.
Kate - Yeah. Not too pretty. I mean it's up to you, but it's just for suppah. Not like it's a fancy restaurant or anything.
Me - K, thanks! Imma go get ready. Love you!
Kate - Love you too! Tell me deets when y'all get back.
Me - K.
**END OF MESSAGES**
That's how close Kate and I were. Everything is completely different now that she's gone. Kate and I have known each other since like 1st grade. I miss her so much, I rarely get to talk to her because she's always on the road or busy with something. That's understandable, though. Kate was always moving and seriously never ever stopping.
I just remembered that I needed to text my address.
He texted me back on Snapchat what his number was, so I put it in my phone. I have his name as "Daniel❤️" and he put my name as "Brooklyn❤️".
Me - hey!
Daniel❤️ - wassup! i was wondering if i can have a selfie of you?
Me - um, sure! (pic below!) (just a visual, not really her)

Daniel❤️ - you're not, brooklyn! don't say that kinda stuff! you're gorgeous and don't need to know what others think, okay?
Me - thanks, daniel.
Daniel❤️ - anytime!
Daniel's POV
I showed that picture that Brooklyn sent to me to Devin and Kevin.
Devin - BROOOO SHE HELLA FINE
Kevin - YOU GO AND GET HER DUDE
Me - Haha, thank you guys.
Devin - All good, bro.
Kevin - Hol' up. Is this the girl we're picking up later tonight?
Me - Yeah. We're taking her to Rock's, remember?
Devin - Oh yeah, haha.
Me - Guys. She's so sweet. I cannot wait for y'all to freaking meet her.
Kevin - Someone gotta crush.... he nudged at my shoulder.
Me -Bro, it's not like that. We literally just met this morning.
Devin - Would you call this a date then when we go and get her.
Me - Nah, brotha. Oh crap, she never even texted her address to me.
Kevin - Ask her for it! Jeezum!
Brooklyn's POV
I'm finishing up some homework before I go out tonight. I hear a ding coming from my phone.
Daniel❤️ - whatcha doing?
Me - last minute homework before i hang wit u and ur "gang".
Daniel❤️ - haha. i forgot to ask you, what's your address?
Me - completely forgot to tell you! sorry! its XX Xxxx Xxxxxx
Daniel❤️ - thanks, love! cya soon!
I think I might just keep on what I'm wearing. It's kind of in the middle of casual and pretty anyway. It's only 5:30. Still have a little time to kill. To pass the time, I go through my phone. Insta, Musical.ly, Snapchat.
I realized that I got a snapchat from Daniel. He captioned it "can't wait to see you, brooklyn! xoxo -daniel" It was a selfie of him. He's so freaking adorable!!!! Ughhhhhh!!
I'm kinda nervous to go hang with them tonight. Never hung out with a bunch of boys before. Okayyyy...... just gotta stay like the three c's. Calm. Cool. And collective.
SUPER LONG CHAPTER AND I APOLOGIZE. I AM TRULY IN LOVE WITH UPDATING ON THIS BOOK!! WHAT'LL HAPPEN WHEN DANIEL AND BROOKLYN "HANG" LATER!! READ THE NEXT CHAPTER TO FIND OUT!! - emily xoxo, author.
