9/28/20- Fun fact: The gang shooting was originally going to be targeted at Travis as his father owed them money so they decide to try and kill his son

Another fun fact: Travis' zodiac sign is Libra, the sign of balance, so you can see why he doesn't really like arguing. Venus is also Libra's ruling planet, also being the planet of love, Venus was the planet that Travis and Diane did research on. 

It's also mentioned in the sequel that the planet Venus was in Virgo on his birthday, hinting foreshadowing events in this book here. I'm not saying it lol.

7 PM

Diane's pov

"Diane M.!" I went to the counter and picked up my order and went to one of the tables at the window- my spot. 

I'm not much of a coffee person, I only drink it once or twice a week, and the place I get it? Starbucks. I always order an iced latte in the evening, when the stars come out. I always have my purse with me that has my journal in it as well, my journal has...well you already know. 

Not only my notes from other worlds, my journal also has my personal diary entries as well. I took out my black pen (cuz black don't crack ayy), opened to the back on a fresh page, 

'11/2, I made a 55 on my Pi quiz. Better than the 38 I made last time. No matter what, or how hard I try, I can't seem to make myself focus. I can't wait until this unit is over....' I took a big swallow of my coffee, breathing out the cold refreshing air out after. 'Travis made the highest grade in the class on the test-straight 100. How could a smart person like him be expelled from another school?....why am I writing about him in this?'

I look out of the window seeing random people pass by, but across the street I saw a shining black limo that caught the attention of a few. Is a celebrity coming here?! A guard stepped out of the back seat, holding the door open.

 A tall figure stepped out, I paid no attention to them, I didn't even know who they were. People were standing around with their phones out, taking pictures, videos. I was looking up at the sky, seeing the moon rise. Man it's so small! I start writing, 'Waxing crescent, near Mercury...wait is that Mercury or Venus?' I stop writing. 

The small bell on the door made the high-pitched ringing, but I paid it no attention, then names were called, I turned around seeing the few people in the cafe was excited, "Oh my gosh its him!!" "Eeeep!!!" more people started to come in, but security flooded in and pushed people out. People that were sitting at tables were being asked to leave, since it was closing time, I looked at my phone, they're closing 30 minutes early. I guess I'll have to leave as well, I looked back at the person, to see who it was at least. 

He had on a designer hoodie, with the hood pulled over his head and jeans.

 The guy took his hoodie down and there he was curly haired Travis. ABORT! Abort mission!! You are too socially awkward right now bruh! I shoved my journal and pencil in my purse, grabbed up my iced coffee, I had a medium but it was bigger than expected, so I still had over half my fill. The last customers in the shop were leaving and I got up and was on my way out of the door, until a big hand flew on my shoulder, I almost jumped, but froze. I turn my head, "Travis Sanchez would like for you to stay." his gruff voice says to me.

 I was led to a table and one of the guards pulled the chair out for me. Why are they pulling out a chair when I can do it myself? I sat down, across Travis, how is this boi still taller than me in a chair?! A CHAIR! "Hey pequeña~"

 "Hi." I quietly say back, why did you say 'Hi' out of all things?! 

"..What do you want?" I look around the empty cafe, I never seen it empty, except from outside if its closed. I'm beginning to get used to seeing Travis' face now, I felt somewhat special every time I was around him. I mean, less than 2% of the Earth's population has green eyes am I right? I thought about the time I had to come back- 8 pm

I'm not so great when it comes to eye-to-eye contact, I guess its the introvert in me. Again.

(....*X files music* o_o)

 "Well, decided to come here to grab a drink until I saw you, so why not hang out with one of my friends?" he smirks, I kept the blood from running to my cheeks. 

 "I'm not the one on talking." I felt my lips tug into a corner, feeling my dimples forming. 

"So, do you know your zodiac? I know them but never was into the subject." he asks. I looked up at him, he knows about zodiacs?

"Sagittarius, December 18th." I fold my arms, "You?" I ask. 

"I...don't know mine." he blushes. Now he's gonna make me blush. Wait, how the- I never blush, not like that! I pull out my phone, "What's your birthday?"

 "September 24" I typed it in, hmm fall. "You're a...Libra?"

 "Wow I'm a pair of scales, while you're a centaur" he rolls his eyes playfully. 

"눈_눈Don't make me shove an arrow up your-"

 "Sooo, what's more about Libra?" he laughs, I look up at him biting my tongue, 

"....Libra is an air symbol, and the only sign represented by an inanimate object." I looked at the time, 7:30. I lived near here, so walking home takes 15 minutes only.

"I gotta go Travis, I can't be here any longer" "Case is closed already?"

 " Uh *yawn* yeah I'm realllly tired, so I'm gonna go now" I force a yawn in.

"I hereby announce you, Diane mi pequeña, innocent" 

"Innocent for what?"

 "Look it up when you go home, pequeña" he winks. 

"Stop calling me that!" "No" he says babyish. "(-_-). I'm being for real Travis. I have to go" "Fine, I'll see you at school"
