Jake's Pov: I stare at myself in the mirror for awhile longer looking at the dark bags under my eyes. My eyes are still entirely bloodshot from last night. I take a quick shower and get dressed and head downstairs to get something to eat. I open the fridge to see too many leftover containers. I shut the door and grab the keys off the table and walk outside to make my way to Target for actual food. The sun is beaming down today it feels like the sidewalk may actually melt. I push the key into the car and back out of the driveway. Within minutes I'm at the closest target car in hands ready to spend way too much money on basic shit.
Minutes later and the cart is full of bulk items in hopes it'll last the house more than two days. I stride down the bread isle trying to remember what kind of bread does Haley like. "Wheat" i say to myself. "Above you" a shorter brown haired girl says to me. She's absolutely stunning. "Oh you heard that?" i laugh embarrassed knowing i wasn't talking to myself in my head. "Yeah i think you thought you were talking inside your head" she smiles and pulls a piece of hair back behind her ear. "I'm Jake" i say looking down. "I'm Emery" she says and I play her name over and over again in my head. Emery. "Can you actually grab me a loaf of wheat from the shelf. I can't reach" she laughs knowing she's short. I smile and hand the bread to her and she places it in her green basket. "I know this sounds crazy but would you wanna get coffee sometime?" she asks her ice blue eyes search my face. "Yeah totally. I'll give you my number" i say as she get her phone out. She hands me her phone and i enter my name abd number into her contacts.
