I didn't post a chapter last night cause I got distracted. Sorry. But here's one to make up for it! Love you bunches - Jess

Today I woke up early, and before I could form a rational thought, I called Ashton - that's what he told me his name was - and asked him to meet me for breakfast tomorrow. Our conversation went something like this:

"Hello?"

"Hi, it's Autumn from math class. I wanted to know if you'd like to go to breakfast with me tomorrow? I'll meet you at IHOP, 7 on the dot."

"Alright, I see your game Miss Autumn," he laughed in to the phone. "Don't call me for two weeks, and then BAM, you ask me for a date. I like that."

"It's not a date," I'd spat, wishing I hadn't called.

"Alright then Miss Autumn, I'll see you tomorrow for our Not Date."

"Can I at least have your name?"

"Ashton. My name's Ashton."

I literally did nothing else today but job hunt. I'm starting at Barnes & Noble next Friday. I'm nervous. What if I knock down a whole display of books on the first day?
