"Did you see it?" Maja almost screamed in my ear.
"Good morning to you too, Maja! I giggled back.
Noah and I arrived at the airport 40 minutes ago and had still to wait for an hour or so for our flight to board.
"Yeah, yeah. But did you see it?" she asked hysterically. "I guess you mean the thing about Shawn?" I replied and chuckled nervously.
"Obviously! What else would I mean?"
"Ok yeah, sorry but stop screaming." As loud as Maja spoke, the people 5 Meter away from me could probably hear her.
And she just spoke through the telephone.
"Well I am excited for you!" She screamed even louder so I stood up from the group of chairs Noah and I were sitting on and walked over to the big window wall, from which you could see the planes drive off. "Aren't you excited too? I mean Shawn Mendes follows you! And he reposted your video! Omg!" she continued and finally calmed her voice.
"Of course I am excited about this. You can't believe how excited I actually am about it." I giggled "but please calm down a little."
"I try" she answered but I know that she didn't.
"You have 28k followers by now, that's insane!" she went on and I gasped.
"28k? Holy.." that indeed was insane. The last time I checked my social media was also when I saw that Shawn followed me and by then I had 19k.
"Yeah, it's probably now 30k or so, I don't know, when I last checked it, it was 8:30 am I think" she said.
"I didn't check it either, we just arrived at the airport and I wanted to save my battery for the flight. By the way, when will you arrive in Cali?"
My flight would board at 11 am and when Maja arrived in California we would meet again.
"I think at 3 pm or so, so I guess I'm in the hotel at 5"
"Are you sure our parents booked the same hotel?" We extra asked our parents to book the same, so we could spend the day before the AMA's and the time we didn't have appointments, together.
"Is yours called 'the viceroys'?"
"Yes, it is. Perfect, so then you just write me when you arrived and.." I wanted to suggest going to the gym but got cut off by her.
"Wait we drifted off topic" she said. "What?"
"God, Julia! We were talking about Shawn"
"Oh yeah right. Should I follow him back?" I asked.
"Did you just ask that?" She asked with a shocked undertone.
"Ok chill, I will follow him when I arrive at the hotel.". "No, you will not" Maja suddenly replied.
"God Maja, what do you want from me?"
"It would be too soon!". "Obviously" I stated sarcastically.
"Just let him wait for a bit. Follow him tonight, or better: tomorrow morning. She said and I began to laugh. Like Maja stated it, it sounded like Shawn was a small schoolboy.
"I don't think that he is sitting in front of his phone, waiting for me to follow him back" I argued.
"You don't know that" she claimed and I could basically hear her wink through the phone.
"You neither" I laughed back.
"I bet with you, that he likes you."
"Well, yeah I guess so, I mean otherwise he wouldn't have spoken to me at the Golden Globes." I answered.
"And he follows you now"
"Yeah, because of the Unicef campaign. He isn't the only celebrity that follows me now because of it. I think Tom Holland or so follow me now."
"Don't be so stupid Julia!"
"Heeeey" I moaned offended.
"I swear to you he does not just follow you because of Unicef. If it turns out that he does in the end, I'll eat a broom or something, I don't know. I just know that Unicef isn't the only reason he is following you." Maja muttered.
"I would be glad if that was true" I admitted. "He is so good looking, like I was stunned when I saw a few pictures of him."
"So, you did research on him?" she said in a slightly perverted voice.
"Oh, come on Maja! You can't tell me you didn't research him also."
"Of course, I did." She giggled. "I won't even deny it. But, you know, I had to, as your best friend."
I watched a few planes driving over the huge parking lot and then went off and just walked around, where not too many people were.
"Let's just talk about something different, ok? We can talk about Shawn later in the hotel." I inquired.
"Sure"
"Is there something new about Tony?" I then asked.
"No, nothing exciting. He still won't tell me where he is taking me on Sunday"
"I like it" I said. "I think it is kind of mysterious"
"Yes, it is! And it just makes me so much more nervous"
"I bet with you the date will be great. Just be yourself Maja"
"Wow, thank you for the most typical thing you could say to me right now" she laughed.
"You know what I mean" I laughed back. "If he is a good guy, what I guess he is, he will like you the way you are, I mean he clearly did not dislike you at the gettogether" I said with a smirk, even though she couldn't see it.
"I know what you mean, but still, I just want him to think the best of me"
"Obviously. But he will, I promise" I said encouragingly.
"Just let us talk about another topic. How was the thing with Unicef?"
"It was good. But there was this one guy, he was so strange, I don't even know" I explained.
"Which guy?"
"His name is Francesco, and he always talked to me like I was dumb or something."
"Well.." she intended to speak
"Don't even think about interrupting me Maja!" I quickly added with a laugh.
"He has a point" she laughed.
"Oh shut up. And he was the boss of it all so I couldn't even talk back, it was exhausting." I said and just gained a chuckle from the other end of the telephone.
"But overall it was really great. It was so cool to stand in front of the camera, I really liked it."
"Maybe you could begin a career as an actress like your mum" Maja suggested.
"Yeah, I thought about that too after the shoot yesterday, but I don't know, I want to achieve something on my own and not because my mum is an actress you know?"
"I don't really have the same problem but yeah I get you. I wouldn't ask my father for help if I wanted to be a regiseur."
"But at least I have a little bit of time left in school to think about it. Do you know what would be so cool?"
"What?"
"When we both got to be actresses after school and then play the lead roles in the same movie" I said excitedly and Maja laughed.
"I agree but let just finish school first"
"Sure" I giggled back and looked at my phone display. "Shit. Sorry Maja I have to hang up, my battery is already at 60% and I need it for the flight" as we were talking I just forgot about that I wanted to save my battery.
"It's alright. We'll see us in a few hours in the hotel. Have a good flight" Maja said.
"Thanks, you too, see you in a bit." And then I hung up.
