I was scrolling through Instagram when a random number texted me.

?: Hey there hot stuff🔥

I decided to ignore it until they texted me again.

?: You wanna hang today?

I texted them back.

Rik: I'm sorry. Who are you?
?: Who are you?
Rik: I'm Erika Costell. And you are...?
?: Jake.
Rik: Jake who?
Jake: I'm not gonna say right now. Sooo Erika. What's ur insta?

Rik: Uh yh but how old r u?
Jake: Wow r u already interested in me?
Rik: Nope. I'm taken. I just wanna make sure I'm not talking to some random 12 y/o.
Jake: Chill I'm 21. U?
Rik: 24. How did you get my number?
Jake: Well I got it from a girl at the club but I guess she gave me a fake #.
Rik: Hahaha sucks to be uuuu😂😂
Jake: Thank you so ok much*hint the sarcasm*. Well I gotta go. Txt later?
Rik: I dunno. Maybe?
Jake: K see ya.

After that I put my phone down. Who's this "Jake" guy? I decided to think about it later. I gotta pack. Why you may ask? Its because I'm going to surprise my boyfriend in Michigan. He doesn't know I'm coming.

                        °   °   °

I finished packing and arrived at the airport. I decided to text Blake.

Rik😏(this is what Blake has for her contact.): Hey Blake. What you up to?

I waited for about 10 minutes with no reply. Hmmm... Oh well. I texted Jake instead.

Rik: Hey Jake.
Jake: Hey beautiful. What's up?
Rik: Just waitin' for my plane ride to Michigan.
Jake: Ooooo Michigan. What for?
Rik: Surprising my bf.
Jake: Nicee. Is that where ur from?
Rik: Well I was born in Ohio and raised in Michigan, where I met Blake. Then I moved here to LA.
Jake: I was born and raised in Ohio! Btw Blake is ur bf's name right?
Rik: Yup. I gotta go Jake. See ya😁
Jake: See ya😁

I got off my phone and boarded the flight.
It landed around 4 hours later so I got an uber to Blake's house. I got there and knocked. His roommate answered.
?: Umm who are you?
Rik: Someone. I'm here to see Blake.
?: He's a little busy if you know what I mean*winks*

I pushed past him and ran to Blake's room. He was hooking up with another girl. I looked away as soon as I saw him and shouted "WE'RE THROUGH!!!" He looked at me and said "I don't care." I ran out of the house and took my stuff with me. Tears were welling up in my eyes. My phone dinged so I checked it.

Jake: Hey beautiful. Land safely?

Awwwww. He cares. I would be more glad that he cared if my boyfriend hadn't just cheated.

Rik: Fine I guess.

My uber got here to take me to my hotel. I booked a flight back for tomorrow.

Jake: Is everything alright beauty?
Rik: No not really. I walked in on my bf hooking up with another girl.
Jake: Really?
Rik: Yup. I ended things.
Jake: Well he doesn't deserve a beautiful, caring princess like you anyways. He sounds like a douche.
Rik: Awwwww thanks bro.
Jake: Ouch sibling-zoned.
Rik: Is best friend better?
Jake: I guess. It's easier to get out of than bro-zoned.
Rik: Okay well ily❤best friend. Thanks for caring.
Jake: No problem best friend. Ily too.
Rik: I'm gonna get some rest.
Jake: The princess needs her beauty sleep😂😂
Rik: Shut up😂😂 ily tho💖
Jake: Ily too. Night💖
