The Blue Jay

Chapter Two: pancakes and the muffin man

Italic- Mia
Bold- unknown

It was a bright Saturday morning when I woke up. The sun lit up my room in a way that I hated. I wish my room would just be dark while I slept.

I grabbed my phone, going down the stairs after using the bathroom. I entered the kitchen, only to find my mom cooking some pancakes. I smiled brightly at her, kissing her cheek as I took a plate.

"Good morning, you seem to be in a good mood this morning." My mom points out.

"Yeah, I guess," I said with a shrug.

In reality though, she was right. It's been two days since my first conversation with the unknown number. We've been texting since, so now I make sure to have my phone on me.

I'm determined to find out who he is, no matter what it takes, I'll figure it out. I'm going to have to do some stalking and countless hours of overthinking about who he is, but it'll be worth it if it means I find out.

So far, I only know tiny details about him like he's a huge pancake fan, he loves them to death, and that he likes to paint. Nothing that could be hints to tell me about who he is.

My thoughts were cut off when I realized I didn't have anymore pancakes on my plate. I frowned as I got up and put my plate away.

I soon felt my phone buzz after I had been watching t.v in my room for a little while. I felt my stomach bubble with excitement. Maybe today would be the day that I found out who he was.

Good morning.

It's literally 2 in the afternoon.

What can I say? I'm a late sleeper.

Yes, keep telling me facts about yourself, it will help me figure out who you are.

Not gonna happen princess.

Ew don't call me that, for all ik you could be some rapist that's been stalking me for months.

Well considering I haven't seen you in a couple of months I think you're fine.

AH SO YOU SAW ME  A COUPLE MONTHS AGO, I HAVE TO THINK ABOUT ALL MY PAST CONVOS WITH PEOPLE.

No. I saw you, you didn't see me.

Oh god, now you're actually starting to sound like a stalker.

Lmao I promise I'm not, I'm literally your age. There was a party couple months back, before school started up again. You were there.

Oh.. why didn't you say hi?

Well for starters, you don't like me. And you were with your friend, what's his name? Keenan?

Blonde, blue eyes, awkward male specimen?

Yep.

Yeah, that's Keenan.

Yeah, I didn't want to bother you guys.

Bull shit, but next time you see me, come say hi.

Yeah right princess, I'm not going to let you know who I am.

WHY NOT YOU STUPID BABOON!?

Baboon? That's a new one.

Oh shut up! I'll stop talking to you.

No you wontttt.

And why wouldn't I?

Because you're too curious. Ik you Mia, once something sparks up your interest, you don't quit till you find out what or in this case, who, it is.

Damn it, I hate you.

I know :) anyways, how are you doing on this fine afternoon?

I'm great, I had some pancakes for breaksfast this morning.

What o.o THOSE LOOK SO GOOD AND YOU ATE THEM WITHOUT ME, MIA HOW DARE YOU?

I laughed as he scolded me after I sent him the picture I took earlier.

Hey! You're the one who won't tell me who you are.

Oh.. you're right damn. Nvm then, I'll just make my own pancakes.

Orrrr, I could make them for you and you come over so ik who you are.

Nope, i told you, not gonna happennn.

Fine, but how do I know you?

We used to be close.

And why aren't we now?

I caused a problem.

Ugh, you're so myterious. Just give me a full answer.

Fine, you get one question that I'll answer fully.

Ok.. well as much as I want to ask you something that relates to who you are, I have a really really important question.

Yes?

Do.. do you know who the muffin man is?
