chapter 4 - breaking up then falling in love

After everyone went home at around 1 am, I fell asleep on the couch I was so tired and exhausted. I've never been so happy in my life! Moving to LA was definitely the right choice! I couldn't atually believe that someone like Joey would even want to talk to someone like me, I wonder what will come out of this?

I woke up to my phone ringing. It was 10:26 am and I'd slept in again. I answered the phone and it was Scott, SHIT, what do I say?

Me:" How come you didn't come last night?" I said concerned and slightly angry.

Scott:" Because I was ... Erm not feeling too good." He replyed sounding suspicious.

Me:" Why didn't you call then?" I asked accusing him a little.

Scott:" Last night was the past, and now it's the present. So why don't we start fresh?"

Me:" Because I wanna know where you were last night! I called you and their was no answer, all we ever do is fight!" I said starting to get impatient and short witted.

Scott didn't answer. "We have had so many different arguments over such stupid things so... We're done." I said kind of nervously not really knowing if I'd made the correct decision. The phone went dead and I started to cry. Zoe and Jess ran down stairs and asked what the matter was and I briefly explained. Had I done the right thing? A couple of hours later I got bombarded with texts from Scott.

- I knew this would happen.

- You're to immature for a relationship!

- I didn't even do anything wrong! It's your fault we fight. You cause them but we haven't even had one argument since you got here.

The notifications go on continuously for over half an hour, then they stop. The las message he sent m said " fine, you're loss" I couldn't believe that even Scott would put that! He's such an ass hole.

My phone went off again frightening me, after that WHOLE minute of silence he was texting me again, or at least I thought he was... A couple of minutes went by and there was no more texts. I had this urge to look at my phone screen but I guess I was... Scared? I dunno, but I plucked up the courage fully expecting a nasty text from the new-ex-Scott. But it wasn't, it was an unknown number? I instantly thought Scott had changed his number, but I don't think he's THAT desperate, is he? No, hes not. I clicked on the unknown number to read the text:
HEY! BTW ITS JOEY I WAS WONDERING IF U WOUKD LIKE 2 COME OUT FOR LATE (ISH) LUNCH TODAY WITH ME? I MEAN IF YOU HAVE PLANS ITS OK WE CAN DO IT ANOTHER TIME? I MEAN ITS UP TO YOU ;-)

I read the text, my eyes widening with every word I absorbed through my ears. My heart dropped into my socks my mouth going dry and wide open. What the hell!?! He just asked ME out on a... Date??? No, he only just met me!

I know so much about Joey but he hardly knows anything about me! I typed a reply; HEY THANKS FOR ASKING! ID LOVE TO GO WITH YOU I DONT HAVE ANY PLANS! And pushed the send button.

By now I must have had a massive grin on my face because Jess, Zoe, and Matt all came out of the kitchen looking like primary school children.

Jess:" You got a date?!?" She asked me excitedly.

Me:" Um, yeah I mean I guess eeekkk!" I couldn't even speak properly I was so excited.

Zoe:" Who is it!?! Let me see a pic!" She demanded.

Me:" Its Joey Graceffa!" And then I showed them all a picture of him nervously...

Matt:" Can I just ask how old this dude is?" He asked me ;

Me:" He's 23, there's not that much of an age difference. And been totally serious for minute, I think I'm in love with him?!"

They all stared at me as if I'd just grown an extra head. And then I texted him my address and went to get ready!
