Cold weather

      "God dammit I'm gonna miss the bus" I sighed
I rushed onto the crowded bus and sit next to a tall, scrawny, white boy. I didn't think much of it at first as the ride kept going on. It was cold and there were so many people on the bus. I sighed "Is something wrong?" the boy next to me asked, "Nothing much, just the cold and I hate crowds" I replied, he took off his sweater and offered it to me. "Oh no thank you, it's okay" I declined; I didn't really know him anyways, "Just until your stop" he said while covering me with his sweater.
      It felt nice, the sweater warmed me up fast "Thank you" I smiled and started to look on my phone to make the trip less awkward, for me at least.
     As I saw my stop I took off the boy's jacket and give it to him "This is my stop, thank you for letting me borrow your sweater." I smiled, he looked as me surprised "Mine too? Do you go to this campus?" "Yes I do actually" I replied, he smiled "Well I hope to see you around soon" he stuck out his hand "I'm Aden"
"Oh I'm Lexi and I hope to see you too" I say as I shake his hand "I'll be going now" I turned around, as I was walking away I felt Aden's sweater fall on me "Just keep it for the day. I'll see you after school or tomorrow." He said walking away before I could give it back.
Whatever if anything I'll find him around somewhere I thought as I headed to my first class of the long boring day.
It was freezing outside and I felt kinda bad taking Thomas's sweater. I put my head down in class, I fell asleep. When I woke up class was over and the professor was yelling at me, "Dammit" I sighed and picked up my books  "Um hey" I turned around to see who was talking to me "Oh hello" I was surprised to see one of my old friends "What's up? Do you not remember me Lexi?" he said with a frown, "Of course I do James" I smiled and gave him a hug "Well I've missed you! You never text me anymore" James sounded upset "I've just been busy with school" I lied, I mean I was busy with school but James changed over the years and was different now and so was I. "Aw I guess I'll see you around... text me later!" He walked off.
I started to walk down the path to a little shop to get some snacks before my next class.
As I was walking to my next class, bagel in hand, I saw Aden; I was going to go up to him to give him his sweater but he was with his friends and I didn't want to bother him, he was smiling and looked happy. I walked away, bagel in hand, he looked happy.
My next class sucks I thought heading in my next class. I get my notebook and pencil and start doodling on my pages, as I was doodling I saw a stitch on the inside of Aden's sweater "If you find this text-" I whispered "Excuse me? Can you please be quiet" the girl next to me sighed with an annoyed face "Sorry" I said quietly.
As the classes go on I get colder and colder, I remember Aden's number on the inside of his sweater I decided text him.

Me
Hello Aden?

~Aden~
Who's this?

Me
It's Lexi from the bus this morning.. do you want your sweater back it's getting colder

~Aden~
I'll be okay for now just give it to me when u see me after school or tomorrow morning if we see each other.

Me
Okay just asking

~Aden~
Okay see you later!

I turned off my phone and went to my next class
As time passed I started to wonder why Aden gave me his sweater, we were strangers til I sat next to him. He was really nice.
I started to daydream about Aden in a different way. I need to stop being weird about this it was just someone being nice to me I sighed as I felt kinda bad thinking that.
I finally finished all my classes and started to walk to the bus station. As I got there I saw the same tall scrawny white boy that I met this morning. I looked at him as I was walking up to give him his sweater back; he was shivering and cold like I thought.
"You idiot I asked you if you wanted your sweater back earlier and now look at you, you're all cold!" I huffed as I handed him the sweater, his hand touched mine and it felt warm. -He was just being nice remember that- my brain fought with me. "Thank you it's so cold you were right" he awkwardly laughed as he put on his sweater "Your welcome I-" I got cut off by the bus coming to a stop, Aden and I got on at the same time and sat next to each other again.
"So how did you get my number?" he asked, "Your sweater had your number in it" I replied, he looked at me for a second "Oh okay" he mumbled "Did mom do that?" he looked down on his phone, I did the same not really caring about what he said.
My stop came and it was time for me to leave "Bye Aden!" I said as I left "Goodbye Lexi see you later!" he replied. I felt happy when he said that just for a second...
I headed home on my normal way back, my mom passed me in her car and stopped in front of me. I went to the door and opened it "Hey mom did you come to pick  me up" "Yes, hurry get in it's cold outside!" She rushed me in and started to drive "How was school" she asked "it was freezing..." I remembered thomas, -maybe I should text him- I looked down at my phone to text him but I got a notification...

Netflix: A new episode of Lucifer is out!

I forgot about texting Aden for a second because I was excited to watch Lucifer when I got home.
When the drive stopped I got out of the car then rushed into my room and jumped onto my bed. I opened Netflix to watch Lucifer.

A few hours pass

My mom called me from downstairs "Dinner is ready!" "I'll be down in a bit mom!!" I yelled back. I got up and put some old sweats on and a hoodie, I headed downstairs for dinner. Dad was already sitting on the couch watching a show with mom, I sighed and started to serve myself some spaghetti.
The cold floor below me made me shiver, I went over to the couch and ate dinner with my parents.

I got up after I finished, washed my plate, and went to my room and saw a notification on my phone

One new message
~Aden: Hey are you awake?~

"I wonder what he want-" my phone rang it was Aden..
