***Nate's POV***

After I dropped Ali off and I picked Lexi up she became like a full on detective. She wouldn't shut up on the car ride home, no matter how much I begged her to stop.

"So Nate, did ya kiss her?"

"Ugh, no."

"What? Why?"

"Because Violet called when I made the move."

"Oh."

"I saw her room."

"What? How?"

"I asked to go use the bathroom and snuck over to her room."

"Oh my god Lexi! You can't do that!"

"Well I did and don't worry, her room is so nice and clean."

"Really?"

"Yeah. She has lights hanging from the ceiling and a poster from almost every band I know you love. Its kinnda like a teenager's room."

"Does she have lots of music?"

"Yeah she has the IHome and a shiny IPod along with a CD player and even an old record player!"

"Oh, cool. What music?"

"Um, well The Beatles are everywhere! Along with The Rolling Stones and some new artists like Imagine Dragons, Arctic Monkeys, American Authors, One Republic, Coldplay, Fun., Foster the people, Bastille, Mumford and Sons, even One Direction! And those are just the ones I remember! Shes just as bad as you, the CDs line her walls."

"Wow. So she loves almost every genre!"

"Yeah. She has the UK flag hanging on her door. I need that!

I laughed.

"But what really surprised me was all the art supplies!"

"Really?"

"Yeah. She has art pads evrywhere filled with sketches and she has a stack of used canvas with beautiful artwork! On her desk by her laptop she has a giant bowl filled with brushes and another one filled with sketching pencils! Then she has a tub by the foot of her desk filled with colors and boxes of pencils. She then has another by her easel that is filled with paints and about a million colors!"

I really was speechless. Ali was amazing.

"Then what really got me was that everywhere you turn were books, books, books, not just in her room. She has random stacks lying around her house filled with amazing books. The Huner Games, The Fault in our Stars, Divergent!

Lexi didn't stop.

"Then everywhere you turn is something Doctor Who. She loves that show!"

I laughed. I always meant to watch Doctor Who but Stella always said it was stupid.

"She really is perfect for you Nate." Lexi said it above a whisper.

"I know."

I smiled and was so glad I gave her my number. She gave me hers by her doorstep and told me not to call tomorrow because she had work. I agreed and left feeling like a giant weight lifted from my shoulders.

Now I just had to get by tomorrow.

Lexi continued speaking freely.

"She has a giant stack of movies by her TV in the living room"

"She has the cutest little dining table and chairs."

"The kitchen is so small and has a giant window letting in all the light."

"The couch was really comfortable."

By the way Lexi described everything, I knew Ali was perfect. She was everything I wanted in a girl.

"I can't wait until Tuesday."

"I call maid of honor at your wedding!"
