The Great Escape

Jayden

Ashley and I wake up. Ashley gets on her phone and accepts some follow requests.

"Well, now my follower count has gone from 1000 to 1030."

"Wow, Ashley! How did you gain thirty more if your profile is private?"

"Well since my sister has a lot of friends, her friends request to follow me and since I know them I accept them."

"Sometimes I wish I had an older sibling for networking."

I signed into my Instagram, I was able to accept five new people because I did not know any other people that requested to follow me.

"Ash! I'm finally at 45 followers now!"

"That's cool Mel!"

"I wish I had as many followers as you though."

Mom called us down for breakfast. We headed downstairs where my mom greeted us.

"Hey girls, how did you two sleep last night?"

"I slept well, Mrs. Johnson."

"I slept alright Mom."

My mom turns around with two plates of smiley face pancakes. Ashley then spoke:

"Ah Melina, these pancakes need to make their way onto Instagram, they are so gosh darn cute!"

I pulled out my phone and my mom took a picture of Ashley and me. I looked at the picture in approval and got ready to post it. I captioned it:

"Wouldn't want to eat pancakes with anybody else" #pancakes #bestie #breakfast

I uploaded the picture and shut my phone off to eat. Ashley and I finished eating and headed upstairs to get ready for her parents to pick her up. We played on my Xbox for a little bit when we heard her mom downstairs greet my mom.

"Thanks so much for letting Ashley stay, I hope to have Melina over again soon, the whole family misses her."

I hugged Ashley by and she went downstairs to leave.

After she left, I signed into my Instagram and looked up Jayden's profile. I began examining it, he was so handsome! Jayden has curly brown hair and beautiful green eyes that I could get lost in everyday. I have always been so nervous and I could never tell him how I felt. I think he is too hot for me. I then noticed his follower count, he has over 2000 followers, I was not surprised because he is friends with everybody. I did not realize he had 2000 friends though. I then decided to text him on Snapchat.

"Hey, Jayden :)"

"Wassup Mel?"

"Oh, nothing really. I was just on Instagram for a little bit and I noticed your profile. You have so many followers!"

"Wait, you were on my profile?"

"I mean not intentionally, it just came up when you liked my photo."

I am so embarrassed, I cannot believe I just told him I was pretty much stalking his account.

"Oh gotcha, but yeah, I do have quite a bit."

"How did you manage to get so many?"

"One of my pictures got on the explore page and people just started following me."

"Wait, is your account not private!?"

"Haha, no silly. The people that follow you do not know you in real life so I do not see the problem. If you really want more followers you should make your account public!"

"Are you sure? Ashley told me that it is dangerous to have it on public!"

"Haha nothing has happened to me, Ashley probably does not want you to pass her follower count. She probably feels threatened by your beauty."

"Wow thank you *blushing emoji* but I know Ashley better than that! She would never say that."

"Well take that as you will but if you want more then go public :)"

"Okay Jay, I am gonna do that."

I heard my mom call me to come down so we could go shopping for myself some new clothes.

"Alright Jayden, I am about to leave, mom just said we are going to get me some more clothes."

"Alright cutie, have fun."

I then put on my favorite outfit, grabbed my phone and earbuds, then headed downstairs to get ready to leave.
