"You've reached the voicemail of Hayes Grier. Sorry I can't get to the phone right now. You know what to do at the beep."

Ugh. That's the fifth time I've called him in the last hour. I haven't got a response either.

"Nash." I think.

So I dial Nash's number and wait.

"Hey Anna!" he answers.

"Thank god you answered. Hayes won't answer my calls." I say.

"Oh really?" Nash questioned.

"Ya. I've called him like five times."

"We'll let me check on him."

"Kay thanks."

"I'll call you back in a minute."

"Alright bye." I said as I hung up.

I decide to change into something more comfortable. When I'm done, I decide to do some homework. I sit down at my desk and take out my math homework. God this looks hard.

I get about halfway through before Nash calls back.

"So how is he?" I ask.

"Good. He thinks you're still mad at him and that's why he isn't answering." Nash said.

"Well did you tell him I'm not?"

"No. Do you wanna talk to him now?"

"Sure."

I heard rustling and whispering that I couldn't make out before I heard Hayes say "Hey Anna."

"Hi Hayes." I say.

"So what did you wanna talk to me about?" He asks.

"I just wanted to tell you I'm not mad at you anymore and I just wanna be friends again."

"Ok thanks for not being mad at me but it might be awkward being friends again."

"Oh." I felt heartbroken for some reason.

"Ya sorry about that."

"No it's fine. I guess we just grew apart."

"Yup. Well do you wanna talk to Nash again?"

"Actually I have one more question."

"Shoot."

"Why weren't you at school?"

"Oh you know. The Magcon boys were over so my mom said I didn't have to go. Why?"

"Abby was wondering. That's what I guessed though. Anyways can I talk to Nash again?"

"Ya sure here he is." Hayes said.

"Sorry about him he's being weird ever since we got back." Nash said.

"It's fine." I said.

"Well if that's all, I should go."

"Ya that's it. Tell the boys I say hi."

I hear Nash yell "BOYS ANNA SAYS HI."

"HI ANNA!" I hear.

"Well they say hi if you didn't hear that." Nash said.

"Ya I heard." I said, laughing.

"Do you wanna come over?"

"Um thanks but I really should do my homework. Tomorrow?"

"They actually leave tonight."

"Oh then I'll come over in a few minutes. Is that okay?"

"Ya sure. Just text me before you come over so I can unlock the door."
