I woke up early, but knowing it was weekend, I stayed in my bed and of course fell asleep again.

I dreamt of me, running away from something. Then I faced this cliff. There was only one thing I could do to escape and that was to jump. So I jumped. The ground was getting closer and closer. THUMP. I was in someone's arms. No, not just someone's.. It was Danny! His lips moved closer to mine and were just a mere inches away. They would hit my lips any second now... MY HEART'S A STEREO

It beats for you so listen close

Hear my thoughts in every note oh-oh

My favorite song played out of nowhere. And it scared the shit out of me.

It was my phone ringing. I quickly searched the bed with me hands, my eyes slowly opened. "Got it." I mumbled to myself. I answered the call without looking at the caller's id.

"Hello? Who's this?"

"Jordan, it's me Clark. So basically, I figured you would still be half asleep right now, but it's 10:30 and your date is at 11!"

"O my god!" I sat up in shock and looked at my alarm clock. "Wow.. thanks Clark, you saved me."

"I just know you and your little habits, like your sleeping till noon."

"You're such a creep." I chuckled.

"Now, go! Hurry up! Do you have an outfit already?"

"I was thinking of a pair of white shorts, and a light blue top."

"Sounds good, but you need some accessories. You're probably going to wear your watch, aren't you? Yeah, I thought so. Well let me see.. How about your silver necklace with those hanging thingies..? You know.. it's got these.. How do you call them?"

I laughed. "I know which one you mean, it sounds like a good idea. Thanks Clark. What would I do without you?"

"Well obviously, you would do nothing! Apart from sleeping and missing your date."

"Okay, okay. You made your point! Byeee! Oh and Clark. Thank you."

"It's okay. Bye, Jordan!"

I checked the time. 10:38. I had to hurry. I put on the outfit which I had laid out on the bed while I was talking on the phone. 10:39.

I grabbed a colorful bag and put my phone in it. It already had things like my sunglasses in it. I ran downstairs to the kitchen. "Hi mom!" I manoeuvred around her and grabbed some toast. "Bye mom!"

10:41

Okay. Calm down. I've got enough time. I even have time to walk there. I guess I'll just walk then. I can clear my head in the morning breeze.  I can hear the birds singing. I can see the dog owners playing with their dogs. I can just fully relax. Everything's going to be just fine. But the best part of walking: Danny can bring me home.
