Six days. Six long and depressing days. I never realized how much I relied on this person to entertain me until now. I always thought of him as some kind of distraction. Maybe I was being stupid when I said I needed space. I mean, Tim is right, how much more space did I need?
No, I said I needed space. I need space.
Ugh, but I miss him so much. I don't even know like what I miss. I just know I miss this stupid jokes and his sense of humour. Besides, it was really funny changing his name without him knowing. Even though it was more funny when he did know.
Maggie, stop.
Me: i'm bored
Me: you're back to entertaining me
Tim: fuck
Tim: omFG JUST TALK TO HIM
Tim: I DON'T WANT TO ENTERTAIN YOU
Me: DON'T BE RUDE
Me: THIS YOUR MOTHER SPEAKING
Me: hi
Tim: you're an idiot
Me: so are you
Tim: so are you
Me: so are you
Tim: you're more stupid
Me: you're the most stupid
Tim: you're the stupidest person in stupid town
Me: stupidest isn't a word
Tim: it is now

Six days. Six days since Maggie told me she needed space. I'm giving her space, I am. I'm trying to move on and it's working. So far...
In fact, I'm asking Megan out on a date. I think this is the first time we've been on an actual date since Homecoming... of last year. Usually our dates were just hanging out with our "friends" or throwing a party. It should be nice to just hang out with her alone for a bit. It'll be like freshman year all over again.
Me: hey babe
Me: can i take you on a date? (:
Megan turns around and smiles before looking back down at her phone.
My Babe: sure (:
My Babe: where are we going?
Me: movies.
My Babe: okay (:
Me: great, okay.
Me: i'll pick you up at six?
My Babe: of course. i love you <3
Me: love you too.
For a split second, I almost thought I was talking to Maggie. Maybe I should be talking to Maggie, but I'm not. It seems as every hour creeps past I think of her less. I think that first and sixth period are the hardest, because she's always the first person there. I just sit in the classroom for five minutes watching people coming in and she's never fazed by her surroundings. She's just texting. Who is she texting?
Why does it matter, Harry? You're the one going out with Megan, again. I'm not "going out' with her. I'm just hanging out with her. It's nothing serious.
Maybe this movie night with Megan will be just what I need to get over her. I can spend some time with Megan like the old days. Or maybe I could just give in now and talk to Maggie, because I really don't want to see this romance movie.

Me: you looked cute tonight
My Babe: thank you <3
My Babe: that movie was so cute.
It wasn't. That was a god awful movie. Two hours just to find out that the guy gets the girl. If it was that easy, I would have Maggie.
Me: agreed.
Me: maybe we can go to dinnner tomorrow?
My Babe: yeah, just not sonic.
Me: nah, it'll be nicer.
My Babe: well i'm going to bed babe
My Babe: we have that test in english tomorrow
Me: okay.
Me: goodnight love.
My Babe: goodnight harry. ♥
If this was Maggie, I'd be the first one to fall asleep. Maggie always stayed up late on school nights. She'd tell me about whatever show or movie she was watching on Netflix. Maggie hates romance movies. She hates horror movies too. If we were going to a movie, we'd see a comedy. And she'd laugh so hard at something that wasn't even funny, because Maggie does that. Maggie laughs at my jokes, even if she doesn't say it. I remember that one time in sixth period when I sent her a joke and she laughed so hard. It was the cutest thing, because it was only her and I in the room and her face turned a bright red when she saw I was sitting there pretending "to read" while I was really just sending her stupid jokes.
I miss Maggie.
