The alarm jolts me awake and I slap it in disgust.

"Uughh" I groan. "Monday again.."

I throw my legs over the bed, followed by the rest of my body. Fall on the floor, stand up, rub my eyes and stumble out the room. After washing my face and brushing my teeth I feel a bit more awake. I throw on a shirt and some comfy shorts, grab a bagel and head out to the school. Hey, Laf and Hurc are already here.

"Hey!"

"Hey"

Laf slides over and nudges me with his elbow, "Sooo how was the sleepover?"

"Ah it was amazing" I trill.

Laf starts wiggling his eyebrows again,

"Amazing eh?" he says.

He creeps up even closer.

"What, exactly, was ama-" he starts.

"No no no no. Stop." I say.

"Hahaha is just a little joke eh?" he chuckles and settles down, "so go on, tell us what happened."

My phone buzzes.

A-Good morning

"Uhh I'll have to tell you guys later, I got a surprise for him this morning," I say to Laf.

"Ahh, he grows up so fast," he sighs to Hercules

I leave before they start fangirling over me again. Meanwhile, I start heading to Spacebar.

J-Morning

J- I'm at school

A- cool I'm on my way.

J- we should get food

A- meet me at the café and we can get breakfast.

J- okay

I start walking faster, I hope I'm not gonna be late.. Oh what if he's already there. I wait at the stop light. Ahh this light's taking too long. This is an emergency. I cross the street. Before the walking signal is on. Don't let me get hit, don't let me get hit. With all limbs intact, I made it to Spacebar. Sadly, Alex is already there, he looks at me with a slightly worried expression.

"Hey, why were you late?" he asks

"What do you mean? I came as soon as I could" I reply.

"Oh yeah, sorry. What do you want? I'm paying."

"Let's have a blueberry muffin and coffee."

"Alright, do you want me to order?"

"Sure." He gets up and orders at the counter. I get a warm feeling inside, it's our first date! I smile as he comes back to the table.

"Is this like a date?" he asks.

"Hmmm maybe.." I smile and wiggle my eyebrows at him.

"Maybe so" he grabs my hand. We chat while we wait for our coffees.

"How are your pets?" He asks

"They're good, how's your mom?"

"Good, I might find out if she's actually pregnant soon. That would be cool"

"Yeah"

The cashier then calls up our number for the coffee.

"I'll get it," I walk up to the counter to retrieve our coffees.
