I sit up in my bed wondering what to do at 4:30 am. Unable to sleep. Wide awake. As per usual for me. I grab my phone.

And the minute I do a get a text from Sam.

Sam: wanna get coffee?

Me: omg I was literally just about to text you asking..

Sam: omw

I laugh and grab my shoes slipping them on. I grab my back and slip on a sweatshirt and head downstairs quietly before he gets here. I wait outside. When I see his car pull up like a minute later. I hop in.

"Hey" I said.
"Hey" he replies. It was a thing now.
"So is this our thing?" I asked.
"Getting coffee in the middle of the night sure" he nods.
"What if one day we get into a fight?" I asked. "If this gonna be our tradition?" I asked.
"Well it depends on the level of the fight. If it's a big one. Of of us are bound to not show up. If it's small. This so how we get over it" he shrugs.
"Cool" I said and we both laugh.
"Why are we weird?" He asks.
"I don't know. We need to work on it" I sigh.
"Yeah definitely" he nods. We stop at the place.

We hoe out getting our offers and heading back to the car.
"For a drive?" He asks I nod.
"So your mom was very motivational today" I state.
"Oh god" he sighs.
"No I liked it" I smiled. "It was a great pep talk about my boy issues that you had to bring up again."
"Right" he chuckles. I sip my coffee.
"She's a cool mom" I say.
"Yeah I guess" he laughs. "I guess she can be embarrassing when she wants to" he sighs. "Do you think Dylan will like the haircut?"
"Don't know. Don't care" I shrug. "Wanna go somewhere tomorrow?" I asked.
"Do you have an idea of where or just asking?" He asks.
"There's this hike I go on with Austin and Stella sometimes. It's super nice" I said. "Wanna go?"
"Yeah sure why not, still new here" he nod.
"Cool, That was a weird random thing to ask. I just thought I need to really get out of my house sometimes" I laugh.
"Yeah it's fine. I do to" he nods. "We're kind of boring teens" he laughs.
"Definitely" I nod. "So boring."

I put on some black pants with checkered along the side of them, and a white thin long sleeve top. Almost crop top-y not really. It's kind of longer but not too long. I kept my hair down obviously. I slip on my vans and grab my bag and phone. I head downstairs. I grab a granola bar for myself or 4 for later. I eat 2 and ten Sam shows up. I get into his car.
"Wassup bitch" I said.
"Did this hair get you more sassy?" He asks.
"I don't know maybe" I shrug. "Want one" I point a granola bar towards him he shakes his head. "You came a little early."
"Yeah. I wanted to her coffee" he says.
"Good idea" I nod. "I need it. Running on no sleep."
"What's new?" He laughs.
"Yeah. You're right" I sigh. "So when's your birthday?" I asked.
  "December" he answers.
  "How do I not know this yet?" I question.
  "I don't know" he laughs. He parks the car at the place. We get out and get our coffees and leave for school.

We walk in.
  "BITCH!!!! OH MY GAWWWWDDDDD!!" Austin stops my walking. "You look AMAZING!!" He squeals. I laugh.
  "Thanks" I say.
  "NO!! This looks better than your longer hair honestly!" He tells me.
  "Yeah I like it better" I nod.
  "I'm so into you. Bitch you look fucking HOT!" He smiles I laugh again.
  "Yeah yeah" I wave him off going to my locker. "Is Stel still sick?" I asked.
  "Yeah, she might not make it Friday" he shrugs. "Sucks for her. Can't see daddddddyyyy."
  "Ew shut up" I roll my eyes.
  "Sorry for the brutal truth" he laughs. He plays with my hair. "I'm obsessed with you."
  "Yeah I can tell you sick bitch" I say he laughs. I shut my locker.
  "If we never end up with people can we get married?" He asks.
  "Definitely" I nod.
  "Wow your hair" Kyle and Caleb come up.
  "Yeah" I nod.
  "It's so short!" Kyle lifts a piece and drops it. "Looks good."
  "Yeah. I know" I nod again.
  "It suits you" Caleb says.
  "Are we not over this already?" Sam shows up randomly.
  "We just saw it" Caleb and Kyle say. Sam stares at me. He's been doing this a lot.
  "You're fricken creepy dude. Look away" I tell him.
  "Sorry" he laughs and scratches the back of his head. He bites his lip and turns around. "I'm gonna get to class" he sighs walking away.
  "What's up with him?" They ask me.
  "I don't know. He was completely fine before" I shrug sipping my coffee.
  "Weird" Austin smirks.
  "What?" I asked.
  "Nothing" he shakes his head grinning.
  "I'll see you guys later, I'm going to see what's up with that freak" I say.
  "You do you girl" Austin says as I walk away. "Shake that ass."
