"Hi," I started out. But it was too late she had already hugged me. Her arms wrapped around me.

I was confused. We had just met the other day and now she was hugging me for more than 10 seconds.

*At the resturant*

I looked at her and she was smiling big and wide. She brushed her hair out of her face and sat down.

"Did you miss me?"

I smiled and she laughed.

"Do you want to tell me what your big decision was?"

I felt like I could tell her anything because I just naturally trusted her.

"Well, I'm leaving O2L."

I was afraid. Afraid that she would leave just because I wasn't him anymore.

"Oh, that's a big step. Are you sure?"

"Yes, more than sure."

*text beep*

"Oh my God! My dad's having a heart attack!" She shouted

I got up and left. She was only dating because I was him. I walked out and never looked back. No normal person texts you when your dad is having a heart attack.

She chased after me screaming "WAIT!"

I finally stopped the car and let her get in. I drove to the hospital and left without saying goodbye.

I heard a murmur of a soft thanks. As I left slowly.

I went home and stared at the wall for two hours just thinking. This is the hardest time in my life. I need to get it together.

*phone rings*

*declines*

*phone rings again*

"What do you want?"

"I just wanted to tell you that my dad is gonna be okay

"Wait, you weren't faking it?"

"You thought I was faking it!?"

"Well as soon as you found out I was leaving O2L, you had to leave, from a text. Why did someone text you that your dad was having a heart attack?"

"Oh my god! It did seem like that didn't it? No I promise I really really like you a lot. Oh, and that was my autistic brother. He can't speak, so he texts."

"Let's finish our first date tomorrow."

"Perfect."
