Chapter: 8
Corbyn came a little closer and started to lean in...

At that moment my phone rang. I quickly pulled away and answered the phone.

It was Kate.

Phone call

Jamie: Hey Kate.

Kate: Hi! Where are you?

Jamie: I'm at Corbyn's place.

Kate: Alright. I just wanted to say that I forgive you for what happened with Liam.

Jamie: Thanks Kate. I'm so sorry again. It shouldn't have happened.

Kate: Let's just forget about it.

Jamie: Great idea.

Kate: See you soon.

Jamie: See ya.

I hang up the phone.

'I'm going home. It's already pretty late,' I said looking at my hands.

'Do you need a ride home?' he asked me.

'You don't have to, I can call an uber,' I said a little shy.

'But I want to,' he said with a cute smile on his face and lead me to the door.

We left the house and Corbyn drove me to the hostel.

'Thanks for the pizza and the song. I had a great time.'

I smiled at him.

'Me too,' he responded.

'Before you go, can I get your number?' Corbyn asked me.

'Sure, give me your phone,' I said.

He gave me his phone and I entered my number under the name: 'Jamie🍍'.

I gave him his phone back and he took a look at what I had written down.

He just laughed.

'I'll text you,' he said.

'Great,' I responded with a smile.

I gave him a quick kiss on the cheek before I hopped out of the car.

I blushed as I walked towards the door of the hostel.

I turned around and I saw the car leaving, so I entered the building with the thought of Corbyn still fresh in my mind...

The next day I woke up and got dressed.

Me and Kate went downstairs to get some food. As I was eating my breakfast, I got a text.

'Who were you texting?' Kate asked.

'Corbyn. He invited me to come to their show tonight. You wanna come with me?'

'Sure, I'd love to!' she answered very excited.

We went on eating our breakfast.

'Kate!' I suddenly said with a louder voice.

'What's wrong?' Kate looked confused.

'I have nothing to wear! We have to go shopping!' I screamed in panic.

Kate smiled at me.

'Then let's go shopping!'

***
We drove to downtown LA where all the stores were.

I tried on a million dresses. Literally.

We eventually gave up and sat down at a table at a little cafe.

'It sucks you didn't find anything cute to wear,' Kate said in disappointment.

'It's okay. I'll just wear something old, I'll be fine,' I said convincing myself.

***
As we were walking to the car, I suddenly stopped and looked through the window of a store.

On a mannequin was hanging the cutest dress ever.

'You should definitely try it on!' Kate said from behind.

We walked into the store and I tried on the dress.

'I love it!' Kate said excited, as I walked out of the fitting room.

'I love it too!' I said while making a spin in front of the mirror.

I looked in the mirror for a little longer, enjoying the great fit of the dress on my body.

Super excited, I walked back into the fitting room.

As I undressed, I realized I didn't even take a look at the price tag.

I got dressed and walked out of the dressing room after I checked the tag.

'What's wrong? Why are you looking so disappointed?' Kate asked confused.

'It's way too expensive. I can never effort this.'

'I'm sorry Jamie.' Kate gave me a hug.

'It's alright. It's just a stupid dress,' I responded, trying to forget about it.

***
Kate made her homework when we got home and I listened to some Why Don't We songs.

After a while Kate and I started to get ready for the concert.

First, I took a nice, hot shower. I thought I deserved it after this shopping day fail. After the shower I did my make up. Not over the top but just glamming enough. I also curled my hair to top it off.

I was standing wrapped in my towel in front of the closet, deciding what to wear, when suddenly I hear a knock on the door.

I toughed the top of my towel deeper in so it wouldn't fall off and I opened the door...
