without my best friend.

every morning i still wait for him to come up to the window with his bedhead and no shirt. or our rides to school with our shawn mendes or selena gomez blaring through the sound system. buddying up in class, even our secret conversations even when we are halfway across the room. his sister hasn't even said anything about it. i haven't heard one word come from his mouth.

going to school is hard knowing that he isn't there to goof around with me in class. don't get me wrong i love byrnn and the rest of the crew. but not having my best friend of all time greet me cheerfully in the morning really makes me the day the worst.

tonight is the night where he played the biggest basketball game of the year. tonight is also the night i'm going to man up and talk to him and i was making sure i was going to talk to him.

i'm currently in my bedroom, placing a natural makeup look on my face. eyebrows, simple black winged eye-liner, with some big fluffy lashes. i'm wearing one of johnny's old basketball tops paired with a pair of black ripped jeans and my adidas superstars.

i lastly spray some perfume on my neck and my wrists and rub them together. i last minute apply some chapstick on to my lips chucking the bottle back into my makeup bag. i race over to my bedside table, ripping my phone out of the charger. i quickly rumble through my closet to find a sweater to go around my body in case it gets cold.

i open my door, realising i'm 5 minutes late and maddie hates when i'm late. i quickly race down the stairs bursting into the living room. "i'm here!" i huff.

"good! get in the car!" maddie giggles, pushing me out the front door. "bye mum!" we jump into the car, grabbing our seatbelts and wrapping them around our waist and buckling them in. maddie puts the car into drive and driving to the school gymnasium.

"so i see your wearing john's basketball shirt," she wiggles her eyebrows. "you back on good terms yet?" she questions me, keeping her eyes fixed on the road.

"nope," i gulp. "but tonight that will change." i say confidently.

"says shy mack z." she laughs.

"no!" i call. "i'm serious, i'm making it up to him tonight." i roll my eyes.

"woah, steady on kenz." she giggles, once again. ew, dirty minded much.

"no, not like that dumbass." i roll my eyes even harder. she finds a spare park in the crowded car park and put her car in park, making sure it doesn't roll anywhere.

"ready to get your boy back?" she grabs her phone.

"born ready."

i'm coming for you, orlando.
