"What? What do you mean? Who?"

A million and one things running through my brain. What girl? One of her friends? What drama has she git herself into now? Is she trying to set me up with someone?

NO ONE IS GAY AROUND HERE SO HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE.

This is why i have been dating via the internet. I need to stop being so arrogant.

"It's this girl her name is..." She quickly checks her phone. "Serenity Hope Matthews...do you know her?"

"No but i know Natalia knows a Brianna Matthews?! Maybe they are related in some way?" As i speak these words I pull up my Facebook account and do my research, don't judge me, we all do it. Firstly, i look on my friend Natalia's Facebook to find the photo which i vaguely remember of her and some Brianna girl. After minutes of research i find what i was looking for.

"Yes, they are sisters it looks like...do i send her a request? If i do i may be able to see more" I look up at Autumn who is typing frantically.

"What? Huh, no" Her words slowly falling out of her mouth as she is concentrating so hard. "You will seem to eager" like she knows. She hasn't had a boyfriend in like 3 years, yet i still listen and do as my younger sibling tells me.

"So what do i do?" Flicking through pictures and pictures that are not private. I go into a day dream of 'what ifs' and begin to have loads of questions like 'How does she know me?' 'What has been said about me?' I am very proud of who i am and i am very open about everything including my sexuality, so if i am being spoken about in a bad way, I'm not to bothered. I have learnt to embrace who i am and who i love.

"I will give her your number, let her make the first move" Autumn snaps me out of my day dream. As i was about to hesitate she continues her trail of words with 'and done'.

"You haven't?" I asked in shock expecting her to tell me she was kidding and hand me her number but know she was serious.

"Of course i have. You're welcome" she leaves my room with a smirk on her face shouting as she shuts the door "DON'T MESSAGE HER FIRST". The door slams and i type in her name on instagram. Private. Of course.

*BEEP* *BEEP*

My alarm wakes me up. 6:30 am, i don't even remember falling asleep last night but now i have to get up for college just to sit in my college class patiently while my tutor sits at the front of the class talking about how it is so important for the elderly to eat healthy.

I finish up my work and check my phone.

I have a message.

'Hi it's Serenity' wow i totally forgot about her and how she was supposed to of been messaging me. A smile grew along my face. I show my good friend Sophia the message and told her the situation, including what Autumn was talking to me about last night. Sophia told me that she thinks it's cute and that i should go for it. I showed her a photo too, she said that she isn't the best looking but she is cute. Amelia overheard the conversation and told me that all they want is to see me happy. My friends have never seen me with anyone before so this will be a first. If it goes well.

"What should i say back? Should i introduce myself? What about asking who it is? Wait no she's told me who she is"

Amelia looks at me "what do you think about her? I'm your opinion what do you think of her?"

"She's cute i guess, she seems very respectful by her social media posts. It was kind of weird how she messaged my sister first but it doesn't matter, a lot of people do that, maybe she was just shy" I say looking at the text blankly, not making eye contact with my friends.

"So message her back girl" Amelia basically screams at me with a little giggle added onto the ends of her words. You can tell she wants me to be happy. The thing about Amelia is that you can never tell if she is annoyed at whatever you say or she just genuinely has a resting bitch/angry face. She is also very opinionated and gives you her opinion whether or not you ask for it. I took her advice anyway and i messaged her back.

'Hi Serenity, it's Francesca'

Basic? I know but i didn't know what to say. I placed my phone into my pocket and packed up my laptop and all my books and pens and slid everything into my cluttered bag and made my way to my maths class, with both Amelia and Mia. We had to take mathematics still as we never passed in school, it was such a bore but we had each other so we were not entirely dissatisfied with the work. We sit in the class and pull out our note books and the enormous pile of revision that we carry around with us the 3 days we are in college or at least have maths. The lesson had started but Amelia was too busy telling us about the guy she had over last night to notice when to stop talking or at least lower her voice.

"Girls. What are you talking about that is so interesting? Would you like to share it with everyone else?" We all look directly at our tutor, our faces drop in panic.

"So?" Miss Walker continued because we all went silent.

"We were just discussing the work miss" Mia clearly lies and you can totally hear the panic in her voice. Amelia and i look at her and give the those eyes as if to say 'thank you' we weren't exactly having the post PG conversation. I will leave that to your imagination.

For the rest of the lesson we just automatically got on with the work Miss Walker handed to us and we never said anything more. It was clearly to risky to hear any more of Amelia's antics.
