"So, you still go to school, right?"
"Yes, I do, but I'm in my final year so I don't have that much left" I said to Shawn.
After I hung up on him earlier, I got basically beat up by Maja. She then left immediately, even though she just left my house and waited for her chauffer on the street in front of my house, so I could call back Shawn.
I still waited 15 minutes so it didn't seem like I was too desperate to talk to him, and yes, I know that sounds very desperate.
We now talked for like half an hour. He first excused himself for calling nearly a week after he asked for my number and now we were just talking about random stuff. He said he couldn't call because his schedule was too tight this week. And I believed him because if he didn't want to talk to me he hadn't called at all.
"And what will you do after school?"
"I honestly don't know. But I really liked to moderate the category at the AMA's so maybe moderating is something for me."
"Yeah, you really did a good job. I think nobody really noticed that it was your first time doing something like this. At least I wouldn't if I hadn't known" he said and I felt my cheeks blush and tingle.
"Thanks" I said. I never really knew how to handle a compliment so I don't know what else to say than 'Thank you' and to smile. Bad thing when youre on the phone and the other person can't see your smile. "Must be an amazing feeling to stand on a stage like yours nearly every evening."
"It is, yeah" he replied and you could hear his smile. "Do you know if the Unicef Project will continue?"
"Uhm, yeah, we have something planned. I don't know what it is yet and when it will be but I guess they'll plan it similar to the last one, where we did the photoshoot and the other stuff a few days before the AMA's so that I could present it there."
"So maybe you can moderate something else soon?" he said with a hopeful voice.
"Yeah, I hope so"
"Who knows, maybe we will stand on stage together the next time" he then said and made me blush again.
"Yeah maybe. Maybe youll win a prize next time" I teased him.
"Heeeey! It was really close ok?" He pouted but laughed. "What would you have done if I won the prize, and not 5sos?"
"I don't know" I laughed. "Give you the prize I guess." I know what he was meaning with his question though. He was referring to our previous 'relationship' to each other. The first time we met we were at the golden globes and he just came up to me. Then we didn't talk or see each other for a while, then a few days before the AMA's he followed me on all my social media.
A small silence came up and I was thinking about what I could say and I just heard him begin to talk again when my father called from downstairs "Dinners ready".
"Oh, I'm sorry, my father just called for me that the dinner is ready."
"Bon Appetit" he replied.
"Thanks. It was really nice talking to you though". I said, to assure him, that I didn't end this call because I just didn't want to talk to him anymore. I would love to continue talking to him.
"I agree. Uhm, I guess we'll write or call?" he said-asked.
"Absolutely. Have a good night Shawn."
"You too Julia. Bye" He said and hung up. I promised myself that I would text him first, no later than tomorrow morning.
I then went downstairs to join my parents in the dining room. This evening we had a soup with some bread.
When we finished dinner, it was around 8 PM and I still had to do a little bit of homework.
