Will's POV
I bite my lip, anxiety building up in swift successive bolts.
Shaking hands hold onto my phone, the screen displaying a beaming text message.
Hey! It's Will! Just wanted to know if things are awkward between us now? Because of the kiss?|
I shake my head, scowling slightly. 'Because of the kiss?' What kind of idiot says that!? And what's with all the exclamation marks? I sound like so desperate.
I erase the message and start again.

Ping.
I get a notification.
I inhale a cold, burning gulp of air.
Freddie: Hey :) I was wondering when you were gonna contact me- I gave you my number for a reason you know! I really liked the kiss too, though it was a bit unexpected- for both of us I guess! If you want, we can FaceTime and talk about it- feels more personal that way. I would come over, but I promised mum that I'd have dinner here :p xx
