On Friday in Drama Louis and I were researching dialogues together. We then would each have to write an essay based on that dialogues. We were packing up when Mr Bernast said.

"Don't forget your speeches due next week!"

Louis flipped his hair again, he actually did it seventeen times today, I counted. Was he self conscious of his own hair?
"Um, do you want to meet up in the weekend?"

"Why?" I asked.

"The homework..." oh, that. I probably seemed like an idiot.

"Oh, yeah. Sure. Would you like to come to my place? I want to show you something anyways." His face lit up, he was literally like a golden retriever, he got excited for such little things.

"Sure. Where is your place though?"

"Um, you know the café where you spilt tea all over me?" I asked, he frowned and looked embarrassed.

"Yeah, I do."

"Okay, well there is a black door next to it, it has a golden number in the middle with the number eighty four. Ring that bell and I will open the door for you."

"Wait, you live a over your job that is so cool."

"Not exactly." I said and Louis' eyebrows pulled together, he was confused. "The place is ours. It belongs to me and my mum and, my dad." He didn't need to know everything about me...

"That's really cool. Ava..."

"Yes?" I looked up at him and it was like he was thinking about something but didn't know wether to say it or not.
"I truly am sorry for spilling tea over you." I rolled my eyes,

"Get over it. Anyways I need to go home, I work shifts from four thirty to seven."

"What time should I come?"

"Three?"

"Three it is," he said smiling. I sort of wasn't prepared for his smile and so I couldn't look away. I started walking backwards and I ran into someone's locker that was open.

"Ow!" I said as I looked behind me. A boy was frowning at me. I turned around, embarrassed but before I did I saw Louis snickering. Ugh.

On Saturday I cleaned my house. It wasn't as if it was dirty, there was only the living room/ kitchen and two bedrooms. But I made sure that no clothes or weird stuff that I own were laying around my room. I had half an hour and realised I hadn't eaten lunch, so I took out some leftovers and ate them. I had just about finished when I heard the door bell ring. Damn it, I hadn't cleared up. I went to the machine that showed you who was there. There was a camera and I couldn't help but smile when I saw Louis. I pressed the microphone button and said,

"Hi." Louis jumped and looked around him which made me laugh even more.

"Ava, where are you?" He said, looking at the hedges in front of the building now.

"In my house."

"Then how can I hear your voice?"
