IN THE APARTMENT

mona was busy working on an essay for her psych class, not really paying attention to her phone going off until it began repeatedly going off. she pushed her laptop onto the bed, picking her phone up from where it way laying next to her. she scrolled through the notifications she had gotten, not really reading what they were about until she got to her instagram notifications, which she only got from the people that she followed. she saw the usual comments of her friends liking and commenting on her posts until she reached one that was different. 'uncle_jezzy commented: i keep getting mentioned in your pictures and have yet to be disappointed' almost immediately followed by 'uncle_jezzy started following you.'

    she jumped off of her bed, starting to scream as she ran to sandy's room, not bothering to knock before she barged in. "OH MY GOD! OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD!" she couldn't get any full sentences out, still in shock from reading it.

    "what the hell is wrong with you? what happened?" sandy asked, clearly very confused about the situation.

    "OH MY FUCKING GOD SANDY HE FUCKING FOLLOWED ME!" she shouted, showing her the notification. with that both of the girls started freaking out, screaming incoherently until kate walked in. sandy caught her up on what was happening, joining in on the screaming that was taking place.

    "okay, holy shit. what do i do now? like, do i message him? do i act like i haven't seen it? what's the move sisters?" mona asked, looking at the both of them and then down at her phone.

    "DO NOT message him yet. you don't want to seem like you're just sitting on your phone waiting for it." sandy pointed out, the other two nodding in agreement.

    "you're right. i can't seem desperate. but i also really want to message him. like, really really bad." she noticed the disappointed look on sandy's face, taking a deep breath, "BUT, i won't. i'll just complain about wanting to until it's ti--" a ding from her phone cutting her off. she glanced down, covering her mouth with her hand. a muffled 'no fucking way,' coming from behind her hand.

uncle_jezzy: hey, don't really know how to start this but i just wanted to let you know that you're very attractive
uncle_jezzy: i also don't want to seem like an ass, i'm just making an observation.
uncle_jezzy: i kind of feel like i'm putting my foot in my mouth though so i'm going to stop it here but i would really love to get to know each other.

okay so the next part is going to be like maybe a month or two in the future because uhhhh, i don't want to write out the awkward getting to know each other.
