Finding The Boy In The Player ((Book 1))

~~Chapter 21~~

♫ Singing Radiohead at the top of our lungs ♫

 

♫ With the boom box blaring as we're falling in love ♫

 

♫ Got a bottle of whatever, but it's getting us drunk ♫

 

♫ Singing here's to never growing up ♫

“Hello?” I said groggily into the phone. Did I mention, I hated morning?

 

“Daisy! Daisy!” Carla’s voice chirped on the other side of the phone.

 

Okay, when was the last time Carla was so happy? And even happier talking to me?

 

“Yeah?” I asked curious.

 

“We NEED to talk! Cafe in ten minutes?” she proposed.

 

“Sure. Be there in a few” I sighed.

 

Good bye, sleep.

“Daisy! Over here!” Carla called my attention to a booth she was sitting all alone in.

 

“Hey, what’s up?” I asked, sliding in the booth in front of her.

 

“I’m sure your gonna love what I’m gonna tell you next! You actually help us!” she said excitedly.

 

“Us?” Logan and her? I couldn’t help but smile.

 

“Yea, us! Me and Logan are officially together! Thank you Daisy for giving us that push!” Carla sighed dreamily.

 

I laughed. “And I thought you hated players, Carla”

 

“Well, not all the boys are the same! And hey, Logan said he’s willing to stop that nonsense as long as I’m in a relationship with him” Carla defended.

 

“I’m glad” I smiled at her. “How long do you guys think you can make it last?” I asked curious.

 

“I hope it’s more than a year” Carla answered truthfully sipping her tea.

 

“I hope so too” I agreed. “Then your sure to have baby Logans and Carlas running around!” I joked.

 

*Phone vibrates in Daisy’s pocket*

 

“Oh, my phone!” I said holding up a finger and checking my phone.

 

‘You have one text message’

 

I typed in my password. Yes, this time I did actually put a password after Ethan’s hands were on it.

 

I read the message sent by Reuben.

 

Reuben: Are you still sleeping?

 

I typed back with a smile. Reuben totally knew I hated waking in the morning.

 

Me: No, but you obviously are. :)

 

Reuben: This would totally be you if you were sleeping → *Picture of Daisy sleeping with a book under her*

 

Me: You still have that picture! Wasn’t that like when I was in 7th grade? And we had that first sleepover!

 

Reuben: Yeah. I still have it :)

 

Me: Aww.

 

Reuben: ^_^

 

“Hey!” Carla got my attention by snapping her fingers.

 

“Yeah?” I asked smiling sheepishly.

 

“Who are you talking to? Your boyfriend?” she gasped. “Is it Ethan?!”

My face went a few shades of red. 

 

“Get a hold of yourself, girl! No, it’s not Ethan or my boyfriend!” I snapped at her.

 

Gezz, does everyone expect me to have a boyfriend? Am I that pretty?

 

Carla sighed. “Aw, man. That would be so cute! Me and Logan on a double date with you and Ethan!”

 

“Ew, no” I made a face at her. “Me and Ethan are friends! I’m sorry if I crushing your dreams of double dates” I responded.

 

She laughed. “I’ll help you find someone then! Yeah, to repay you for hooking me and Logan!” Carla looked like she just said a brilliant idea.

 

“Oh, no thanks, Carla. I don’t need a person to meddle in my love life” I assured her.

 

“Why not?” she frowned. “That’s what you did to me and Logan” she said matter of fact.

 

“Yeah, because I could see it there! You can’t expect me to fall in love with someone because there is no one I like more than a friend” I corrected her.

“That’s what they all say” Carla rolled her eyes at me, as she sipped her tea, looking at the window.
