The Honey Creeper

"He seems like a creeper to me...."

"Nat is always sending creepy guys my way. They're usually whoever she's crushing on at the moment. I just wish that she would stop." I complained to my sister.

"Calleigh, I actually really don't care." she said rather invested in her phone.

"Kate, you're an inspiration to me. I am so happy that one of us isn't always on our phones." I said laughing at her hypocrisy.

"Well I didn't have technology when I was little so I'm making up for lost time." she sighed as if it was obvious.

"How do I explain to you that we are only two years apart? Back in my day we didn't have no refrigerator, we kept our ice cold with hay, and..."

"Continue this and I'll murder you." she said cutting me off mid-sentence.

"Well someone's on their period." I muttered walking up the stairs as to not enrage her more than she already was.

I took my phone out of my pocket and looked at my notifications.

1 snapchat from creeper

I smiled at the screen name I had put for him. I opened the snap and read the text.

Ur calleigh right?

'Because if he wasn't creepy before he's definitely not creepy now...' I thought to myself.
I wanted to reply and say his grammar sucked but I decided against it. I thought it would be best if I didn't respond to that one at all.
My phone started to vibrate again.

'Seriously? Get a life dude!' I thought as I pressed the box.

What's up?

I smiled at it. 'he must be really desperate.'

Hey

I typed in chat deciding against letting him see my face.

So ur name is Calleigh right?

He asked.

Yeah...how did you know?

I asked a little bit confused. I figured I could respond since it was Nat's friend. he couldn't be a total creeper...right?

Ur username says calleigh_thomas.

He typed, responding a mere two seconds later.

Oh...

I deadpanned.

Can I see ur face?

He typed after I had sent my reply.

I'm sorry but that is possibly the creepiest thing anyone has ever asked me.

I typed back, amazed at his bluntness.

So is that a no?

'What?' I thought to myself.

I'd rather not.

I said replying to his question.

I have to go..bye.

He said logging off snapchat.

"Are you even listening to me?" I begged as I replayed the story for my sister.

"Yes, Calleigh, he seems like a total creeper to me." she said, seeming annoyed with my presence.

"What do I do?" I asked exasperatedly.

"Here's an idea, delete him!" she said annoyed with my crazy behavior.

"I did that the last time and Nat wouldn't talk to me for weeks." I sighed in defeat.

"I thought you hated her, why should you care what she thinks?" my sister exclaimed thinking I was a lunatic.

"She has no other friends...I feel badly for her." I said thinking about the situation I had placed myself in.

"Stop trying to make her like you! She obviously has some friends if creeper here is snapchatting you" she said attempting to reason with me.

My phone started vibrating again.

Sorry..my mom needed me.

The text said. this kid really wanted to talk to me..a stranger.

I looked at my sister, then my phone.

'I just want to see where this goes..besides a few snapchats never killed anyone.'

Chapter two..I feel like my chapters are really short. I know I only had four reads on my last chapter but I would love to hear from you guys! If you would take the time to comment (good or bad) it would mean the world to me!! Thanks! Creeper's pic to the side or up top if you're on your phone.
