Lacey's POV

When I got back home, I unpacked my bag and found a piece of paper at the bottom. I unfolded it and it read: 07---------. Underneath it said: Guess who :). Luis. Who else would it be? I sighed and decided to text him just to be sure. A few minutes later he confirmed my suspicions and I smiled. I had found my new best friend.

The rest of the week went by the same, with me and Luis eventually ending up best friends, like I thought. We had so much in common and I really liked him. He is very funny, smart and rather gorgeous. Not that I would ever tell him that. It might go to that big head of his, or he might even think that I like like him, which I don't. At all. Well, maybe a little.... No. No, of course I don't. Shut up, stupid thoughts. Go away, now is not the time.

On Saturday, I woke up at 10 to a text from Luis.

Luis-Do you want to meet up?

Me-Okay, when?

Luis-How about I pick you up in 20 minutes?

Me-Why, what are we doing?

Luis-Just going for a walk, if that's okay with you?

Me-Umm... Sure. See you soon.

I locked my phone and put it on the side. I only had 20 minutes to get ready. Start the clock. I had a quick shower and dried my hair. I then chose my favourite t-shirt, dark green, with the words 'We only regret the chances we didn't take' on. I pulled on a pair of denim shorts and put on my chunky, black, ankle high boots. I brushed my hair and decided to leave it naturally down.

Just then, there was a knock on the door. I grabbed my phone, shoved it in my back pocket, and darted for the door, making sure I got there before anyone else did. "Hey beautiful" Luis said, smiling at me with his pearly whites. I smiled back, not showing any teeth.

I shouted bye to my parents, who weren't at work for once, and told them I would be back later. Just before the door closed, I heard a "Have fun honey" come from my mothers bedroom. Good, they wouldn't flip later on. I grabbed my keys off the hook by the door and slammed it shut. I could just feel that today, was going to be great.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just a quick, time waster so I can get on to the more entertaining and mythical part of the story. Not long to wait! I would have carried on, but I'm tired and wanted to leave the suspense of why Luis wants to hang out for next chapter.

Please don't forget to comment, vote and follow. I really would appreciate any sort of message, so I know to continue with my story. Thanks for reading! :)
