wrong time

ive never tried this before

ummm what do i even say... alright here goes

"testing...can u hear me?"

this feels so stupid-

"hello?"

a deeper voice that definitely wasn't mine spoke into my ears, except it didn't feel like my ears. it just felt like my brain. i tried to figure out what i should say next.

"i guess this works?"

"wickeddd" the sound said. i could tell it was a man. he had a nice voice and a british accent too. "do u go to school around here?" he asked.

school around here- where even the 'here' hes talking about hdjsja

"depends where here is"

"right..." he laughed and i felt butterflies in my stomach. weird because we jusg met but technically he is already my soulmate sooo

"scotland" he added.

"scotland? he's in europe?? I'm in the united states"

"he? do u mean me?"

i didn't realize he could still hear me. "yes sorry i'm still getting used to how this works.

"haha don't worry about it, so do u go to ilvermorny"

ilvermorny?? where have i heard that before... "no i go to West Side High School"

"oh you're a muggle, that's okay, my dad's going to love you"

muggle?? what is this guy on... "what do you mean muggle haha, are you a Harry Potter fan?"

"i don't know what you mean by fan but yea, we're good friends"

good friends- huhhh "oh so you're some type of wizard haha" i joked

"yes?"

"oh and what you go to hogwarts then haha"

"yes? how did you- "

"thats cool what house are you in- im in hufflepuff, and each of my three younger sisters are in different houses"

"oh um everyone in my family has been in gryffindor, but what are you talking about i thought you're from the states?"

i have never been more confused with a boy in my life

"i am- did you not take the pottermore quiz? how did you find your houses then"

"the sorting house? like always?"

is this guy for real right now? like genuinely? "wait so you actually go to- Hogwarts?"

"yes, you're lucky i didn't come from durmstrang" i could hear him smile and i started to blush. "only joking" he finished.

"so can we text or is there no reception in hogwarts..im kinda nervous about you reading my thoughts or me accidentally exposing myself"

"im not so sure, what's text?"

he doesn't know texting is?? "um it's when you use your phone to send messages to eachother"

"oh you mean call?" he asked

how does he not know what texting is i- "um no the message shows up on the screen of your phone"

i could feel him thinking, "is this some type of new invention they only have in america?"

"what?"

"i don't even know. you're a bit funny aren't you"

HUH? ME?? "uh i don't- "

"nevermind, what's your name?"

"y/n"

"y/n? from the book 2020???"

"book 2020? i've never read it" i was just completely lost at this point.

"its about this person, y/n and they have to live under quarantine and wear masks with a tyrannical leader. but i don't really understand how people wouldn't follow simple guidelines"

"are you just reading the newspaper?"

"no..." he seemed a bit offended "it takes place in the future, obviously"

future wha- what is he onnnnnn "anyways this book... is it popular?"

"yea extremely!"

"but that's just what's going on right now..."

"so you mean to tell me, you're from the future??"

how do i even answer this "i guess that depends on the year you think we're in"

"1994 isn't it"

1994??? is this gonna be illegal? ... "oh its 2020 for me but um different time zones i guess. kidding, so are you older than me?"

"well i'll be 17 in April"

"oh so am I" "what's your name by the way?"

"Fred Weasley"

fred weasley- "oh um fred how many siblings do you have"

"6, one is my twin brother"

"um fred, i think we're from eachother's favorite books"
