Mikes Pov:
It's 1:34am. Shit. Running on only 6 hours of sleep again?! I groaned stuffing my face into my pillow. Why do I always do this to myself? I turn to face the ceiling, thoughts clouding my judgement. The nights I spend, tossing and turning, are the nights I'm thinking of her, which is often. Sitting up now, I stroke the neck of my cat which sits perched on a pillow beside me. I can't quite place my finger on it actually, what I love so much about her. But than again, I'm only 13, I don't know what love is. At least I don't think so. Ruffling my soft, chestnut hair, I decide, why the fuck not. Let's give this a shot. Clicking on her contact, I type the following: I don't think this is going to work out. I'm sorry.. No. That won't do. Erasing the message, I hesitate to close my phone. At a young age, you learn that you should be loyal, you should be with the people you care about. And you definitely shouldn't lead people on for this long. Wait, am I a cheater for fantasizing about being with another girl when I've already got one? I need to sleep.

'Get up! You're going to be late for school! Don't make me come up there!'

Groggily sitting up, I hop out of bed, allowing my bare feet to touch the cold, tiled floor. Shivering, I go to my closet, not bothering to make my bed. Picking out clothes is something I do with ease. I don't fret with my appearance, everyone hits on me regardless. Shrugging, I pick out a boring, white sweater, with a pair of jeans, and black sneakers. I quickly reach for my comb, fixing the hot mess that lays on my head. Sighing, I grab my backpack and phone that lay on my desk, and go downstairs.

Oh, look who decided to wake up? Good morning sleepyheaddd

I hate, with a burning passion, when moms making that stupid sing-songy voice and call you weird names. It's like she's forgetting my age. Scrolling through my notifications, a warm smile creeps upon my face. Grinning, I see a notification from "Max♥️"

Max♥️: hey frog face, I missed you while I was asleep :)
Me: Maxine, you can't "miss me" if you're sleeping we went over this 😂
Max♥️: do I wake up, curled against your side every morning?
Me: last time I checked, unfortunately, no.
Max♥️: well until I do, I'm going to miss you every moment we are apart. When are you coming down anyways?
Me: you know I'd do anything to hold you silly goof, and one more month 💓
Max♥️: I hate waiting, I'm not patient.
Me: good things take time
Max♥️: I hate you're inspiring quotes
Me: but I know you love me

GO! THE BUS IS HERE!

Sighing I think to myself, she makes me happy. I could feel my cheeks heating up the rest of the walk to the bus.
