Dad left yesterday, and today is Friday. The day we are going to The Cove. I didn't tell my Dad about going because he probably wouldn't have let me go and I didn't want him to worry about me while he was away. He still hasn't said anything regarding my mother, but I guess that will have to wait. 

On a different note, Reid has sat with us every day at lunch and everyone seems to like him. I've also something between Grace and Caleb. They are acting weird again, but this time it's more subtle. They talk to each other but they don't sit as close to each other as they usually do and they seem to be avoiding each other when they can. I'll have to ask them both about it later tonight. 

School has been over for about a couple hours, and now I'm standing in my closet trying to figure out what to wear. I spot a black floral crop-top and a white skirt. I ruffle through the pile of shoes in my closet and pull out some black sandals. Perfect! After laying the outfit on my bed, I undress and take a quick shower. Maybe I was singing Shawn Mendes songs, maybe not? 

I dry my hair and pull two locks of hair from the front and tie them together in the back. After finishing with my makeup and hair, I move over to my bed and put on the outfit I picked out. 

I take a look in the mirror and send a picture to send to Grace and Liv. They both immediately reply.

grace: You look great Ellie!

liv: HOT!!!!

me: thank you!!! what are ya'll wearing?

They both send me their outfits.

me: you both look amazing! i'll see you soon! 

I shut my phone off and set it on the charger. Quickly checking the time, 7:02 pm. Great! I have time to eat something. I pull out the leftover chicken tenders from Wednesday and heat them up in the microwave. What? I said I liked chicken tenders. 

I pretty much inhale the chicken tenders and quickly brush my teeth before I hear a ding coming from my phone.

reid: here! 

I think back to yesterday when he asked if I wanted to go together with him.

"Psst. Pssst. Elle!" Reid whisper yells from beside me.

"Yes?" I question.

"Hello, I'm a thief, and I'm here to steal your heart." He grins. I raise my eyebrow at him.

"What. Was that one not good enough? Here," he states dramatically.

"We're not socks. But I think we'd make a great pair." Reid wiggles his eyebrows. I shake my head at him and laugh.

"You're ridiculous." I laugh.

He smiles.
