                                                   ~John's POV~

I wake up about 5AM. About 3 hours of sleep.

'Ughhh, why did I have to wake up so early? I need at least 2 more hours of sleep.'

I get on my phone, and check my social media notification, and one of my notifications is a voicemail. I plug in my headphones and listen.

"You better run, you better hide. I'm coming for you, John, and Alexander too." the voicemail whispered.

'What the heck? That's weird, and creepy... I'm playing this to Alex when he wakes up.'

I go on YouTube to watch some videos, like the basic person I am because I don't watch television or even Netflix. I did this for about 2 hours, and then Alex wakes up.

"Hey Alex, I got this really creepy voicemail. Beyond creepy." I began.

I get down from the top bunk, and sit down next to Alex.

"How do mean like creepy? Like the voice, the message itself?" Alex asks.

"A mixture of both." I answer.

I play back the voicemail.

"My god, I see why you told me about this." Alex muttered.

"It's just... creepy." I shake.

"Wanna go to the cafe, for a first official date?" Alex asks.

"Of course." I answer, blushing. 

We head out the door and walk towards the cafe, as if nothing happened last night.

We head into the cafe, get our coffees and sat in the same spot as yesterday.

"I'm still a bit shook because of that voicemail." I say, trying to start a conversation.

"Yeah, it's pretty creepy. When did you receive that anyways?" Alex asks.

"Around 3am, I don't really know. I'm making an estimation." I answer.

"Well, whoever it is, is going solo, and we're a double, so we can easily beat whoever that is." Alex replies.

"I think I have a suspect, but I'm probably incorrect." I inform.

"Who?" Alex asks.

"I think it might be Thomas." I answer.

"That would make sense actually." Alex responds.

Eliza walks by. Alex slouches down in his seat, probably to hide from her. She doesn't notice us, thank God.

"Honestly, it would make sense, especially all he's done to basically everyone, though I feel like we're the main victims." Alex blurted.

I take a sip of my coffee.

"Like man, he's done quite a lot to us in two days." I replied.

I look out the window to see a poster about a dance happening this Friday.

'That could be so romantic.  I hate dances, but I'd go to this one if Alex would too.'

"Hey Alex, you see that poster out the window?" I ask.

"Yeah." He answers.

"Wanna go together?" I ask.

He blushes.

"Sure." He answers.

Eliza walks over.

"Hey Alex, wanna go to the dance with me?" she asks.

"I'm going with someone else. One more thing, I'm not interested in you. I have someone else, okay? I'm sorry." Alex answers.

"Oh." Eliza responded, all sad.

"Eliza, I'm sure your're a sweet person, but I have a boyfriend. I'm sure you're kind, sweet, charming, but you need to understand I'm not available." Alex replies.

Eliza walks away.

"I love you." I say.

"I love you too." Alex replies.

We kiss over the table.
