??: hey
a: hi...
i took off my earphones.
??: mind if i sit?
a: um...no...not at all.
i close my notebook fast and scooted over to my left, making some room for him to sit. he then sat down.
??: i'm hayden
a: julianna but annie for short.
h: i like your name, whatcha doing out here? thought you were with your friends?
a: thanks and uh um...no i just like being outside.
h: hm i see. what do you do out here?
why is he talking to me??
a: um...i just listen to music and write...
h: write what?
a:...
h: oh my gosh! sorry, i didn't mean to butt in!
a: it's fine...
we sat there in silence for a few until he said something.
h: so, are you going to carson's party this friday after the football game?
a: wasn't invited, plus parties aren't really my thing.
h: well now you are invited and i'll change your mind about that!
a: how?
h: be my plus one!
a: i don't even know you that well...
h: i got that covered. today, milkshakes? i'll pick you up at...let's say, 6?
a: i don't know...
h: c'mon! it'll be fun! plus, i want to get to know you and it gives me a chance to change your mind!
a:....fine!
h: i'll pick you up?
a: i'll met you there, charlotte's palace?
h: yeah
a: okay, i'll met you there, at 6.
h: you sure you don't want me to pick you up?
a: no thanks. i'll just met you there.
the bell rings.
h: how about...we start early?
a: huh?
and with that, he grabs my hand, leading me to what i think is his car.
a: where are we going? we have school!
h: c'mon! let's skip the rest of the day!
a: um no
h: please! just once! we can go hang out at my place. no one is home
a: i don't know...i don't even know you!
he gave me this look i couldn't say no to.
a: ugh...fine
h: yes!
we get inside his car and he brings to drive to his house which wasn't too far from the school. we arrive at his house and got out of the car. his house was beautiful.
a: wow
h: you like it?
a: it's gorgeous.
h: my moms a lawyer and my dad's a private investigator.
a: both in law?
h: yup.
a: no wonder, this house is huge
h: ha yeah, well lets go in!
he grabs my hand and takes me inside. it was even better inside
a: this house is amazing
h: thanks, now enough about my house haha. let me take your stuff
a: no, no. i got it
h: i'm not going to let you carry your stuff around the whole time you're here.
with that, he got my stuff and put it in his room then came back down to the living room where i was just admiring every detail of the house.
h: so, what do you want to do?
a: i don't know, you invited me, well more like basically forcing me.
h: hey! i didn't force you to do anything
a: mhm
h: anyways, let's talk?
a: okay. why?
h: hm?
a: why me?
h: what do you mean?
a: out of all the girls, why did you want me to be your plus one to a jocks popular kid party? i'm assuming you're a jock, football player.
h: yeah i am a football player. i'm not sure why i asked you- i mean not like that i mean, i just felt like you were the one i should've asked.
a: but you don't even know me!
h: this is why we have this time right now and today at milkshakes!
a: look i'm just going to go back to school, this is probably some sick joke you are doing with the rest of the football team to me, a nerd.
once i said that i headed to the front door and felt someone grab my wrist
h: no! it's not like that!
a: i'll pick up my stuff later
i tugged my arm away from him and walked out.
wow, i skipped school for a stupid prank. for being a nerd, i'm pretty stupid. i knew no one ever want to be friends with me.
i really felt something though. between the two of us. no no no, it's probably just me overthinking. ugh i'm confusing.
