It Started With A Text (Bryles)

F O U R - Is It A Date

(Myles POV)

July, 13th, 5:00am.

My alarm went off like every other morning, but I was already awake. I couldn't sleep, & I think you can all guess why.

Yep.. Briar.

Sending her a photo of me was a huge step, & I was worried. She's a teenage girl.. What if she saw me on TV, or a friend of hers showed her a photo of me? Oh gosh, what if she showed her friends the photo of me?! They'd tell her who I was. Crap.

I sat up in bed, stretching out my back & shoulders, as I let out a little yawn. I had been up at 5am every morning since before my first album was released. Did I like early mornings? Not particularly. Did I have a choice? NO!!

I picked up my phone, sending Briar a quick, "Good morning, B!" text, then rummaged around in my wardrobe, pulling out a pair of light blue jeans with rips in the knees, & a white t-shirt, that hugged my chest & muscles.

I hopped in the shower, taking my usual five minute shower, then hopped out, & changed into my clothes. I added some hair-gel, spending a good 5-10 minutes on my hair, trying to tame it.

I made it back to my room, & picked up my phone, shocked to see Briar had already replied.

Lil B:
Morning Mylo! 💙

She sent a heart. Why did she send one? I had sent her a heart last night by accident, but I didn't want her to think I wasn't interested in her at all, because I definitely was interested. I just didn't know what I should do about us.

Me:
You're up already?!

Lil B:
Yeah. Dance rehearsal at 7am. Lol

Me:
Fun fun

Lil B:
You have dance too??

Me:
Why would you think that?

Lil B:
Why else would you be up and out of bed at 5am? 😂

Me:
Oh.. Yeah. Dance.

Lil B:
???

Shit. Why did I have to be so awkward?? I mean, yes, I have dance training today at my studio, but I'm only going for three hours, & I don't start my first class until 1pm, but Briar didn't need to know that.

I dance at CDC (Canadian Dance Company), & use to have a very busy schedule, especially when I was on the competitive team. However, I dropped the competitive team when I had to move to LA to work on my first album.

Since being back home, I had began training again; but just didn't have the time to be at the studio full time, nor did I have the time to be travelling lots for competitions.

I still danced regularly at home, & went to the studio for 3-4 hours every-day for private lessons; but my main focus at the moment was music, & getting my second album done by the end of the month.

Lil B:
Myles??

Lil B:
Where are you?

Me:
Sorry B, I was zoning out.

Me:
What you up too?

Lil B:
I.. Uh...

Lil B:
I can't say.

Me:
Why? Lol

Lil B:
I... I just can't..😅

Me:
Tell me, B. No secrets!
