The next morning, my phone rang.

I have absolutely no idea why it did, I mean, my mom recently got me it and it had absolutely no contacts on it whatsoever. Confused yet curious, I accepted the call, "Um, who is this?"

"Lachlan! It's me, Preston!"

"Preston? How the heck did you get my phone number?" I asked in a confused manner.

"Well duh, I pick-pocketed you and got it that's how." Preston replied.

"How did you do that successfully without burning my jeans?" I asked abruptly while walking over to my pant drawers.

"I have my ways, by the way, don't worry, I didn't burn a hole in it or anything." Preston reassured, making me sigh in relief.

"Alright, what do you want-"

"Where were you yesterday!?" Preston exclaimed angrily.

"What do you mean?" I said, confused.

"Today's Wednesday!"

That triggered me immedietely. "Wait, what do you mean it's Wednesday!?" I shrieked while looking aimlessly for a red shirt or something that was red.

"I'm serious! You didn't go to school yesterday I thought that maybe Mitch ruined your skin or something!" Preston protested.

"No, no he didn't. Listen, I don't have a red shirt Preston you've got to help me!" I pleaded, and lucky for me, it was only six in the morning.

"Uh, let me check. . ." Preston mumbled, a lot of commotion being heard in the background like:

"Ow my toe! Wait I don't have any haha.

"Fuck!"

"Preston no cursing!"

"Sorry mom!"

Until. "Nope, I've got nothing."

"But IIIII do~"

I recognized the person on the line, "Wait, Rob? Since when did you join the call?"

"Since Preston's mom told him to not curse." Rob said while letting out a soft chuckle.

"Shut up!" Preston grumbled. "Anyway Rob, proceed."

"Well! You're in luck because I have a sweater. Oh and I'm currently standing outside of your door."

My eyes widened, looking outside of my window and seeing Rob standing at the door's steps. "You've got to be kidding. . ."

"Oh I'm not, I'm literally standing right here." Rob said.

"No, I know that, I mean- You know what, whatever, I'll just head downstairs." Without another word, I hung up the call and I ran down the stairs and placed my shoes on.

"Is something wrong Lachlan?" My mom asked me from the kitchen.

"Yes something is wrong! Why didn't you wake me up to go to school yesterday?!" I asked as I grabbed my backpack.

"Oh! You were sleeping so soundly. And when I tried waking you up, you didn't budge." She said. That's it? That was her excuse

My left eye twitched as I glared over at the kitchen, but I just sighed and opened the front door, "I'm leaving early, ok?"

"Alright Lachy, take care!"

And with that, I closed the door and looked at Rob, "How do you know where I live?"

He grinned, "Preston told me."

I realized he was wearing a red sweater, "Wait, you were wearing it?"
