The Notification

One | "Follows you"

This summer my friend, Hillary and I are going to Magcon. Ever sense my grandma passed away I've been huge fans of the Magcon boys, they've always put a smile on my face. And since I had 2 tickets I decided to bring my half sister, Hillary.

Hillary and I would talk about it everyday. Whether it be at school, online, on the phone we would find a way to talk about it. One day she called me up on my cellphone, "Hello?" I said into the phone with my raspy voice, considering it was 11:00pm

"Oh my gosh. Lorde have you seen the new vine!!" Hillary screamed into the phone as if I couldn't already hear her enough.

I sighed, "Yeah...why?" sitting up in my bed I pulled up the vine, and laughed under my breathe.

"Its just, so... Agghhh!!!" I let her have her fan girl moment. It would be rude if I stopped her fangirling, she never interrupts me when I'm bothering her with my overjoyed self.

I held my phone away from my ear and looked through the boys' vines. Until I heard Hillary screaming, "Lorde? I'm done! Lor-"

"Yeah, uh sorry I had to get something that I dropped..." I interrupted her with me...brilliant excuse.

I could almost see her eyes roll through the phone when she said, "Okay... Sure" As I scrolled through vines we talked about how much we couldn't wait to meet the boys, and go to Magcon.

"But, I can't believe my mom is letting me go to Magcon. All she thinks about them is that they're stupid, and its a waste of time, and shit like that." I finally told Hillary when we were saying our good-byes.

"WHAT?!?!" She screamed, almost making me deaf. I should have known that would have been her reaction.

"Uh, yeah. She told me I was stupid for wanting to go, but seriously, I got to go. My food is probably gone, and in my brothers stomach by now." I told her, turning off the call right after. As I threw my phone on my bed I was already half way down the stairs, ready to eat.

I finished eating and I darted up the stairs to my phone, what else am I supposed to do when I hear it buzz off literally a thousand times..? As soon as I grabbed my phone I saw notifications galore; tons of missed messages from Hillary, new tweets from Matthew Espinosa.

I decided to call Hillary back first before anything, who knows what she could need? "Hillary? Hey, Its me Lorde. You blew up my phone! What's up?" I spoke into the phone.

"Lorde! Finally, I've been calling you so much!" She quickly spoke into her phone, out of breath. "Where were you?" Eating I thought to myself as I could hear her hyperventilating. "Oh, wait never mind, you were eating, I forgot. Sorry. But you wont believe what just happened to me!!"

"Wait, let me guess..." I pretended to ponder for a moment, even though I half knew what it was. "Uhmm, its something good? With the Magcon boys? Am I right?" I questioned into my iPhone.

"Yes, and yes!!" Hillary screamed into the phone, " Matt tweeted me, I can't Lorde. I'm brain dead, and all my body is doing is shaking. So, I'm physically dead too! Can you believe this!?"

I was happy for her, yet so jealous at the same time. I don't even understand why this would happen, especially on the rare occasion when I'm not on my phone. "Yeah, I'm so happy! I'm going to have to go and read the tweets, bye!" I half lied to her. Well, at least I'm not face to face with her, then she would have known I was lying.

We said our good-byes and I pulled up Twitter reading every single message there was between Matt and a fan today. But there were only messages between him and Hillary. First of all; Lucky. Second of all; Yay! I'm so happy for her. Third of all; How did she, out of all people get him, Matthew Espinosa to have a conversation with her?
