Bucket List ➳ [T. Holland]

III

***************************************

Walking up abruptly was not how Arabella wanted to start the morning. However, that's how she found herself. Reaching over to grab her phone only to chuck it at the wall and sigh in peace when it finally stops making noise. Only for it to ding five minutes later. Reluctantly getting up seeing the time and realizing it was way later than she thought.

"Wow, I slept in. It's already almost ten o'clock."

Having always been an early bird it was unusual to be sleeping past eight. Everyone thought it was because you always went to bed early. But you knew the truth. The nightmares and voices that haunted you. Only being able to sleep for short periods of time. Deciding to shake off the negative thoughts for today needing a break from yourself.

Looking down at your notification with confusion until another ding comes. Immediately washing your confusion away.

Sorry, It's Tom by the way. My publicist

(905) - 351 - ####

That's fine! XD I just thought it would be your
publicist or assistant messaging me, not you.

Also, I was keeping a lookout for a British area code.

(905) - 351 - #### changed (905) - 287 - #### name to Tom

Tom

Wow so original🙄 Just kidding.

Oh my god, I'm sorry I didn't realize how early it was.

I'm still on UK time. I hope I didn't wake you!

Tom changed (905) - 351 - #### name to Pretty Journalist.

Bella was just about to reply back when the last notification popped up making you somewhat angry with him teasing you because no way in hell would someone like him could think someone like you was the least bit attractive.

Tom realized his mistake when no reply came. Nervously he typed quickly desperately hoping he didn't scare her off.

Tom

Sorry I can change the name,
if you don't like it.

Tom was just about to hit the contact profile when he saw those three little dots pop up only to go away almost immediately. Sighing knowing he lost all chance with this really cute girl and that he won't be able to hear the end of it from Harrison.
